Keon Johnson and Roderick Perkins combined to make three free throws for Winthrop to tie the score at 70 with 3:14 left, then Johnson added two more to give the Eagles the lead for good.

Perkins finished with 17 points for Winthrop, which has won five straight to maintain a first place tie with Liberty atop the conference standings.
