Can Monmouth men's hoops ever be Winthrop - someday?

Here is some info on Winthrop's facility...the school does not have football.



Winthrop’s basketball teams play in
the beautiful and modern 6,100-seat
Winthrop Coliseum, the headquarters
for the athletic department and located
on Eden Terrace about one mile from
the main campus.

Note from me ..in its history in this building going back to 1982 Winthrop has never had a sell out. Top crowd was 5,200 last year (all this info from its web site). It has had 20 crowds of over 3,000.

Winthrop is located in Rock Hill, S.C., about 30 minutes south of Charlotte.




The coliseum was
the home of the Carolina Panthers of
the National Football League for two
years. The facility was completed in
October, 1982, at a cost of $10.7
million, and underwent a exterior and
interior refurbishing in 2003-04. The
coliseum is a multi-purpose facility and
is used year-around for athletic events,
concerts, conventions, receptions,
conferences, and various entertainment
events.


In addition to the main playing
arena, the coliseum contains a modern
athletic training room, weight room,
laundry room, eight dressing rooms
for athletes and visiting entertainers, a
booster club meeting room, equipment
room, media room, two classrooms,
30 offices, three conference rooms, a
film review room, and areas for indoor
baseball and softball practice. An
Academic Services area which
includes a computer lab and study hall
is also located in the building.
