ROCK HILL, S.C. (Interstat) — Two teams with identical records and a recent history will meet Saturday when Coastal Carolina visits Winthrop in a nonconference men’s basketball matchup at Winthrop Coliseum. Both the Chanticleers and Eagles enter at 5-4, with Coastal Carolina coming off a 78-85 overtime loss at South Carolina Upstate on Wednesday. Winthrop is riding high after a 94-92 overtime road victory at Long Island on Tuesday. The game is a quick rematch of a Nov. 11 contest in Conway, S.C., where Coastal Carolina secured a 72-66 win. Chanticleers guard RaSheed Jones starred in that first meeting, scoring 20 points. Jones remains a key figure, averaging 15.4 points per game over his last seven contests, including a 19-point effort in the overtime loss to Upstate. Winthrop will counter with forward Logan Duncomb, who is coming off a career performance. Duncomb poured in 28 points and blocked three shots in the win at Long Island. He also scored 21 points in the first game against Coastal Carolina this season, indicating another potential high-stakes duel between the teams’ top performers. Coastal Carolina has shown resilience on the road this season, posting wins at North Dakota and Western Illinois, but also suffering blowout losses at Illinois State and Jacksonville State. Winthrop’s schedule has been challenging, with narrow road losses at Arkansas and Nebraska alongside high-scoring victories. The Chanticleers’ offense, led by Jones, Joshua Beadle and AJ Dancler, will test a Winthrop defense that allowed 92 points in its last outing. Conversely, the Eagles’ potent attack, averaging 89.5 points over their last two games, will challenge a Coastal Carolina squad that gave up 85 points in its previous game. Saturday’s contest represents a final tune-up against a regional opponent before both teams enter demanding stretches of their schedules. Coastal Carolina begins a four-game road trip after this, while Winthrop hosts two non-Division I opponents before traveling to North Dakota and Texas Tech. Tipoff is set for Saturday afternoon.
