WIGAN finished their single-season stay in the Sky Bet Championship with a 1-1 draw against Leeds at the DW Stadium.
The hosts edged in front inside six minutes as Ryan Tunnicliffe raced clear before rounding goalkeeper Rob Green and slotting into an empty net.
Leeds drew level within five minutes of the restart, with Chris Wood converting from the spot after Eunan O'Kane has been fouled inside the box.
The visitors could have won it when Kemar Roofe fired against the bar and then saw a header well saved by Wigan goalkeeper Matt Gilks.
The campaign ended in disappointment for both sides, with Leeds missing the play-offs and Wigan finishing nine points adrift of safety.
Leeds made the brighter start in the Lancashire sunshine, with Roofe seeing a shot deflected just wide with only two minutes gone.
Moments later, O'Kane played in an intelligent ball to Pablo Hernandez, who fired wastefully wide from 15 yards.
But the visitors were rocked when Wigan took the lead with their first attack on six minutes.

Omar Bogle, having been restored to Wigan's starting line-up, fired over from the edge of the box, before Wood warmed the hands of Gilks at the other end.
After a relatively quiet first half, the game burst into life just after the restart.
The visitors were awarded a spot-kick just four minutes into the second period, when O'Kane took a tumble inside the Wigan box.
