Atlantic 10 ConferenceD1-FCSwinter

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Atop the Atlantic 10 Conference standings, Richmond's women's basketball program has built an elite regular season under coach Aaron Roussell with a 22-5 overall record that includes a dominant 13-1 home mark at the Robins Center. The Spiders are scoring 73.7 points per game while holding opponents to just 59.8, a 13.9-point differential that reflects defensive intensity and offensive efficiency. With a 10-2 conference record, Roussell has established Richmond as a top-tier Atlantic 10 contender in just the latest chapter for the University of Richmond, which was established in 1830 and currently enrolls 3,914 students.

The team's 9-4 road record demonstrates competitive balance, rare for programs that excel primarily at home, while the 14-player roster provides flexibility across multiple lineups. Roussell's squad has proven capable of grinding out wins in league play while dominating the friendly confines of their home venue, positioning Richmond favorably for postseason consideration. Operating from Virginia's capital city, the Spiders have become a rising force in mid-major women's basketball, fueled by defensive-first principles that yield impressive margins in nearly every conference matchup.
