Opening Day of 2015-16 Season!
George Washington becomes the hunted, Dayton looks to reload, while Saint Louis looks to take it to the next level, while local teams VCU and Richmond look for top-tier finishes as the Atlantic 10 Conference's 40th Anniversary season of women's basketball beings non-conference play Friday!
Two morning tip-offs begin the season as Beth O'Boyle begins her second season at the Siegel Center, leading the VCU Rams into battle against Coppin State at 11am, while, at the same time, Dayton, coming off their run to the Elite Eight in last year's NCAA Tournament, opens play against Yale.
VCU returns nearly every significant contributor from last year's squad, with the advantage of a full off-season under Boyle's tutelage. The Flyers will begin life without former Atlantic 10 Player of The Year Andrea Hoover and First Team All-Conference forward Ally Malott, but do return First Team Preseason All-Conference guard Amber Deane, guard Kelley Austria, and a host of inside players.
At 3pm at the Robins Center, Michael Shaffer begins his 12th season at the helm of the Spiders, who return strong perimeter play to begin their season with a 3pm home date with in-state rival Old Dominion.
Another in-state matchup features a revamped George Mason squad, starting their third season under head coach Nyla Milleson, and featuring First Team Preseason All-Conference shooting sensation Taylor Brown, traveling over I-66 and I-81 to face Radford. Rhode Island seeks to improve on their breakout season of a year ago, but faces a tough first opponent hosting Syracuse of the ACC.
Defending regular season and tournament champion George Washington begins their season on Saturday.

MEDIA DAY: Countdown to 2016 Tournament in RVA Underway....
All fourteen head coaches, the league commissioner, Richmond Coliseum officials, and members of the media all gathered Wednesday as the Atlantic 10 began its 40th anniversary celebration for women's basketball with Media Day at the Richmond Downtown Marriott.

The Flyers must replace two players that were drafted last spring by the WNBA: Andrea Hoover and Ally Malott.
