Charleston Southern is aiming for a bounce-back season, but its challenges are substantial

NC State is tentatively scheduled to return to playing basketball that counts on Wednesday night against Charleston Southern. The Wolfpack is opening its regular season in Reynolds Coliseum for the first time in 22 years because that’s the kind of bizarro life we’re living.

The Buccaneers will be eager to show some grown after finishing the 2020 season 14-18 overall and 7-11 in the Big South. The good news for Charleston Southern is that it returns three guys who averaged double-figures last season, and it has plenty of veteran leaders to lean on. CSU was picked third in the Big South preseason poll.
