The official Richmond Women's Top 25 thread

[UR Fan 2]

This is going to capture all elements about the women's power rating as we ascend into the top 25. As a season ticket holder to both men and women(finally after 30 years I am back in the RVA)

Ok, first Fairfield had 11 votes in the AP pole....and we dismantled them by 23 pts at their home. Fairfield beat Arkansas by 14. Oklahoma St currently up 9 at HT against Fairfield at Ok St.
Temple lost to us at home and beat VCU on the road.
ETSU beat Garner W by 2 and lost to #13 NCSU by 25 on the road. We beat Gardner W by 48!!!!

The cool thing for the women is they have the schedule to simply make their case on the court. Multiple opportunities for big wins and resume building. And they sure have the look of being ready!

Not only are they talented and deep, but the talent fits the system extremely well and they have a bus load of people who just make winning plays that don't necessarily show up in the box score or on the highlight reel!

Getting Texas to come here and play was a coup. Fair play to Roussel and his staff.

Ok St holds off Fairfield at home by 2 points

Texas features some powerful forwards including Oldacre who is 6'6". Our starters are tall and long but none of them approach 6'6" so it will be a test inside for sure. Much work to do before December 15th however.
