🔼 Times Set. The men’s basketball team announced the tip times for the eight nationally televised Atlantic 10 games this season! Four of the national broadcasts will from the Robins Center. The eight national broadcasts are part of an 18-game A10 schedule that features nine games at the Robins Center. In all, Richmond will play 16 regular-season home games in 2026-27, including non-conference visits from in-state rivals William & Mary and VMI.

🔼 Power of Philanthropy. There are certain things that every college football team does to practice and play games. The support from their fellow Spiders allows Richmond football to do more. Recent enhancements have been an on-site cryotherapy chamber, access to Pro Football Focus player tracking data and helmet-mounted cameras for the quarterbacks. Each investment addresses a different aspect of performance. Together, they represent something larger: the ability to provide Richmond student-athletes with resources that extend beyond the fundamentals and help the Spiders compete in an environment where every program is looking for an edge.

We want to hear from you.
