Tough season ahead for the Richmond Spiders

Head coach Peter Albright is challenging his players next season with their toughest program so far. Last season was their best ever and he feels that to continue improving one has to raise the level of competition.

"We could have scheduled to go 17-02, but that would have done no one any good," said Albright. "It's far better, I believe, to play out of your comfort zone; to see how good you are and get an idea about how good you can become."

The Spiders are set to host the A-10 Championships in early November.

They return ten starters from a team that went 15-6-2 and advanced to the 'Sweet Sixteen' of the NCAA Tournament before losing to Portland, and finished 16th. in the final rankings.
