routinely fight for the top spot in the conference, but in 2010 they finished ranked fifth in the conference with a record
of 6-5. The Richmond Spiders will inevitably be looking to rank at the top for the 2011 season.
The University of Richmond has a storied football history. Ever since the team joined the Colonial Athletic Association,
the Spiders have been a dominant force in the conference, earning multiple titles along the way. They are known as a team

world of NCAA football.
One of the points of pride for the University of Richmond is the

to playing on campus. It was previously known as First Market Stadium, and with the new renovation it features a capacity
of 8,700.
