Winkelman Reaches 200th Collegiate Win; Takes All-Time Total Over 500

JACKSON – Head Women's Basketball Coach Chuck Winkelman picked up his 200th career win after the Majors defeat Sewanee on Sunday afternoon, 55-46. Winkelman, who has picked up all of his collegiate wins with SCAC schools Hendrix and Millsaps, also eclipsed over 500 career wins as a Head Coach at any level (high school and above) on November 21, 2011 against Rust.
 
Winkelman has guided his Majors to a 20-5 record this season, which is only the third 20 win season in the history of the women's basketball program, and the No. 2 seed in this weekend's Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Tournament.
 
He started his collegiate career at Hendrix College in Conway, Arkansas where he compiled a 168-66 record for the Warriors and won three SCAC Championships.
 
After Hendrix, Winkelman spent some time at the high school ranks where his win total continued to go up. He then returned to the SCAC by becoming the Head Coach of Millsaps College in 2010 and has guided the Majors to one of the best turnarounds at any level of basketball from 1-24 before his arrival to 12-13 in his first season to 20-5 now.
 
He now prepares Millsaps for a date at the SCAC Tournament with the Trinity Tigers on Friday. Tipoff is set for 8 p.m. in Birmingham.
