Womens - VCU @ RC - Sun 1/19 2pm CBS Sports Network

[Section9.RowD]

VCU is 3-3 in and lost last night to URI at home by 14.

 

[spiderstudent17]

VCU is a good team. They beat Saint Joseph’s the game before. A10 WBB is deep this year with 10 teams who could all beat each other in a given night. Plus it’s a rivalry game. I’m sure it’ll be a good game and I’m excited to watch it.

 

[SpiderTrap]

Good game because of rivalry, but in this case I think the UR Women got their wakeup call when they lost to Fordham and then narrowly beat a good GMU team, which is a good team. The last two have been blowouts, and I expect a smaller blowout with VCU.

UR 78 VCU 62

Nationally televised game on CBSSN, too.

First of two for the Spiders in A-10 play...2/9 at Duquesne is the other.

 

[Section9.RowD]

Go Lady Spiders .. put joy back into Robins

 

[bullfrog91]

Anyone have thoughts around logistics for this game? For men's games I usually roll right in with parking and seats pre-determined....how early is everyone getting there?

 

[fan2011]

8-0 run to start against VCU. Hitting 3s. VCU has only 1 FGA and 3 turnovers. Love watching this team.

 

[RichmondNative]

Go Lady Spiders! Will have to scoreboard watch since this game is on CBS Sports Network. I typically have been watching parts of games on ESPN+.

 

[SFspidur]

Katie Hill 10, VCU 9 as the Spiders have opened up a 20-point lead.

Looks like a great crowd there to support the ladies also. Nice to see

 

[fan2011]

Lead is up to 30 in the 2nd quarter.

 

[Long Time Spider Fan]

I think I've seen more boxing out by the women today than I've seen by the men all year.

 

[ncspiderfan]

Great feature on Addie Budnik by CBS at half time.

 

[SFspidur]

I’d ask for a mercy rule, but this is VCU.

Boxing out, staying in front of the person you are defending, blocking shots without fouling, just great defense.

I'm sure Mooney is there taking notes

 

[SFspidur]

Spiders eased up at the end with reserves in, and VCU finished on a 10–2 run over the final 5:30, but Spiders still win by 33.

 

[UR Fan 2]

Katie Hill's best game of the year, and overall best half (1st half) by Spiders since Fairfield game

 

[SFspidur]

Better than the 61 points on 70% shooting they dropped on Bona in the first half last game?

Does Anna Camden have the shortest shorts in basketball?

Awesome job Lady Spiders and glad the fans showed up to support.

However, UR promotions team needs to stop with the (insert color here) OUT games unless they are going to get a marketing partner. The Men’s game was an especially lame white out and this Ladies game doesn’t look much better and most fans typically wear Red in the first place.

I get there about 20 mins before. you can get there 10 min early. The delay would be getting tickets, depends on line, allow 10 mins, can find plenty of good seats.

What happened to UR giving out shirts for the games? I remember going to red outs where they placed shirts on every seat for fans. I’m with you. If UR wants to promote a “red out” or “white out” then it would be nice if they helped by providing the shirts.

Killer if you had legs like her, you could wear short shorts.😎

Handing out shirts when tickets cost $3 is a bit of a losing proposition.

We got there about 20-25 mins early...wasn't sure how crowded it would be with promos and cross town rival game...great showing all around!

To me it’s worth the extra cost to pay for cheap shirts to help enhance the overall atmosphere. It wasn’t done for the men’s game yesterday either. Personally, I think it would be a nice touch from the university to supply the shirts of the “insert color out” that they want to promote.
