Winthrop Eagles men's basketball

The Winthrop Eagles men's basketball team is the NCAA Division I program representing Winthrop University in Rock Hill, South Carolina. The team competes in the Big South Conference and has been playing since the 1978-79 season, with home games held at the 6,100-seat Winthrop Coliseum.

The program is notable for its sustained success within its conference, having made 11 appearances in the NCAA tournament. Its most significant achievement came in the 2007 tournament, where the Eagles secured the program's only March Madness victory with a memorable 74-64 upset over sixth-seeded Notre Dame.

Recently, the team has been active in the early part of the current college basketball season. News coverage has included game predictions and recaps of their non-conference schedule, featuring matches against opponents such as Mercer, Coastal Carolina, and Arkansas. The Eagles have experienced both victories and losses during this period, as the team continues its campaign.
