Winthrop @ Radford

Regular Season Records: Winthrop 15-16; Radford 18-13

What to Know

The Radford Highlanders and the Winthrop Eagles are set to clash at 8 p.m. ET March 3 at Bojangles Coliseum in the second round of the Big South Conference Tourney.

Radford came out on top in a nail-biter against the Campbell Fighting Camels on Saturday, sneaking past 67-65.

Meanwhile, even if it wasn't a dominant performance, the Eagles beat the High Point Panthers 84-78 on Saturday.

Barring any buzzer beaters, the Highlanders are expected to win a tight contest Friday. Those sticking with them against the spread have guts, to put it politely, as the team has let down bettors in their past four games.

Radford came out on top in a nail-biter against Winthrop when the two teams last met earlier in the regular season, sneaking past 69-66. Will Radford repeat their success, or does Winthrop have a better game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
