What to Know

The Winthrop Eagles are 11-1 against the Longwood Lancers since January of 2016, and they'll have a chance to extend that success Saturday. Winthrop's road trip will continue as they head to Willett Hall at 3 p.m. ET to face off against Longwood. The Eagles won both of their matches against the Lancers last season (70-50 and 82-61) and are aiming for the same result this time around.

Things were close when Winthrop and the South Carolina Upstate Spartans clashed on Wednesday, but Winthrop ultimately edged out the opposition 95-91.

Meanwhile, the North Carolina A&T Aggies typically have all the answers at home, but on Wednesday Longwood proved too difficult a challenge. Longwood took their matchup against the Aggies 79-71.

Winthrop is expected to lose this next one by 3. They have failed bettors playing the spread in their past five games, so buyers beware.

Their wins bumped Winthrop to 13-7 and Longwood to 14-5. We'll see which team can carry over their success and which team inevitably falls when Winthrop and the Lancers clash.
