Winthrop (5-13, 2-4) @ Charleston Southern (9-10, 3-3)
CSU Fieldhouse
January 28, 2008
It was a great night for all five starters for Charleston Southern (9-10, 3-3) who took care of business at home in an 80-71 victory over Winthrop (5-13, 2-4).
With four of the five starters scoring in double figures for CSU, it was Kenny Mitchell who stood out the most with his 18 points (9-10 from the line), 13 rebounds and 5 assists. It's amazing what this team can do when they are not forcing shots from three. Jeremy Sexton had a wonderful game with 15 points, 4 assists and a steal from his guard position.
Winthrop's starting five kept pace alongside the Buccaneers starting five, but it was their sixth man Andre Smith who led the team with 16 points. James Bourne was a basket away from a double-double with a solid 8 points, 13 rebounds and 3 assists at the power forward spot.
Charleston Southern now go on the road to battle Coastal Carolina who is surprisingly struggling in the early going at 5-11 overall and just 2-4 in the Big South.
