When representing the University in athletic competition, the school's teams are referred to as "Charlotte 49ers", so a more accurate title would have been: "Charlotte cruises past Winston-Salem State"

This may be an AP error, but one that should be noted. Thank you, either way, for including this story in the News-Topic.
