Winthrop Athletics has been working closely with the university, Big South Conference, and the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control to provide a safe environment for all competitions this season. The health and safety of the student-athletes, coaching staff, community and fans is a top priority. Per University policy, masks are required at all indoor athletics events. Winthrop Athletics encourages spectators at all events to practice social distancing. Please continue to check
www.winthropeagles.com for updates throughout the season.
Due to DHEC COVID-19 testing on the South side of the Coliseum, our temporary ADA accessible entrance is on the North side, under the “Rock the Hill” overhang. Spectators entering that way should already have their tickets and be prepared to show them upon entering. Spectators using this ADA accessible entrance will use the elevator to access Coliseum seating immediately upon entering the building. All spectators will exit from the main level, the elevator and lower level doors will not be accessible at the conclusion of the game.
Winthrop Coliseum
Due to the current COVID environment, NCAA guidance, and campus policies, masks are required at all times for indoor sports at the Winthrop Coliseum. We encourage all attendees to practice social distancing. Fans are not allowed near or on the court before, during or after the event. Please do not approach student-athletes, coaches or any staff sitting at the scorer’s table or press row area. Restrooms are located on the concourse as fans are prohibited from using any bathroom floor level. Stay tuned to
