Region Gameday: Sunday’s college basketball games

HIWASSEE COLLEGE (8-9) at WINTHROP (4-4)

Winthrop Coliseum, Rock Hill, 2 p.m.

The host Eagles return to action after a 12-day final exams break and are coming off a 99-81 loss at Davidson.

Bryant Bernard leads the team with 19 points a game and scored 32 last time out.
