They play USC Upstate twice this season. At first I thought maybe this was a new big south team. But no, they are in the Atlantic Sun conference.
Why is Winthrop playing an out of conference opponent twice in the same season? I dont think I have ever seen this before, unless it was a result of teams meeting in the regular season and then again in a post season tournament.

We did it with Campbell a couple years ago.

We did? Interesting...... I guess this is not as an uncommon occurrence as I originally thought.

Im not sure why teams do it, but we did a home away with Campbell, both teams won the home game.

i think its because low to mid major teams have trouble getting enough home games, so they will do home & home series with teams in the same year so they both get a home game.
