Greetings from a Richmond fan. Feel free to visit us at www.spidernation.com. I am going to give you a few tidbits about our team. Alabama is a tough match-up for us. We have a small line-up. We start 4 guards, each of whom is smaller than 6'4". We have one forward, TJ Cline, who was the A-10 player of the year. TJ's mother is Nancy Lieberman, an Assistant Coach of the Sacramento Kings. She was a national player of the year for Old Dominion in the late 70's. TJ scores about 19 points a game, has about 8 rebounds and about 8 assists per game. His strength is passing. His mom coached him in Sacramento for 2 months over last summer. She proudly says that during that time "she was not his mother, but the Assistant Coach in the NBA."
The Spiders average about 52% from 2 and about 40-45% from three. Our tall(?) 6'4" guard handles jump ball responsibilities, but it seems to work for us.
Alabama is much larger than Richmond. We do not rebound well and our Coach does not emphasize offensive rebounding.
We expect a fun game. This team as far exceeded everyone's expectations this year.
