MATLAB: Saving workspace variables into one struct

structworkspace

I have a workspace containing
   date (178x1 cell)
   opposing_team (178x1 double)
   team (178x1 double)
   win (178x1 double)
I want to merge these variables into 1 struct. I tried using this code here
data = struct('date',{''},'opposing_team',[],'team',[],'win',[]);
but it deletes the data inside it, so when I open the variables it returns with a blank table. How do I create a struct that will keep the data inside? Thanks in advance.

Here are the two main options. First we will use this fake data:
>> date = num2cell(randi(365,178,1));
>> oppt = rand(178,1);
>> team = rand(178,1);
>> win  = rand(178,1);
Non-Scalar structure of with scalar fields:
>> S = struct('date',date,'oppteam',num2cell(oppt),'team',num2cell(team),'win',num2cell(win));
>> size(S)
ans =
   178     1
>> S(1)
ans =
  scalar structure containing the fields:
    date =  25
    oppteam =  0.17320
    team =  0.82512
    win =  0.46835
Scalar structure with non-scalar fields:
>> S = struct('date',{date},'oppteam',oppt,'team',team,'win',win);
>> size(S)
ans =
   1   1
>> S.date{1}
ans =  25
>> S.oppteam(1)
ans =  0.17320
>> S.team(1)
ans =  0.82512
>> S.win(1)
ans =  0.46835
