NORFOLK, Va. - The No. 25-ranked University of Richmond women's soccer team dropped a 1-0 decision at Old Dominion in Colonial Athletic Association action today at ODU Soccer Stadium.
The Spiders conclude the regular season with a 12-6-0 overall record and match the same winning percentage that the 1997 team finished with (.650, 13-7-0) during the regular season. In addition, Richmond capped conference play with a program best-ever 6-2-0 league mark. The Spiders, who finished in a three-way tie atop the regular season standings with William & Mary (6-2-0) and George Mason (6-2-0), await a possible at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament.
