ROCK HILL, SC--The Winthrop volleyball team will make its 2010 home debut this weekend when the Eagles play host to the Carolina Challenge by Hilton Garden Inn that features Clemson, South Carolina and College of Charleston in the two-day event that will be played in the Winthrop Coliseum.

After opening the season last weekend with a 1-2 record in The Tribe Invitational in Williamsburg, VA,, Winthrop Head Coach Sally Polhamus will send her Eagles against College of Charleston's Cougars on Friday night at 7:30 p.m.  That match will follow the tournament opener between in-state rivals Clemson and USC at 5 p.m.
