04/18/2025 | Women's Soccer
RICHMOND, Va. – The University of Richmond women's soccer team concluded its 2025 spring season, which included 20 hours per week of training and five competitions against other NCAA programs throughout the semester.
"We had a very productive spring season and enjoyed setting new challenges for our new group," Head Coach Adam Denton said. "This group has shown great application during our practices and had the opportunity to grow and learn with the five competition dates that are allowed through the spring season. We are looking forward to an exciting summer for each of the players and excited for the fall season. A highlight of our spring calendar was our end-of-season team banquet for our 2024-25 team on April 12 and our alumnae game on April 6. It was great to have our Spiders past, present and future all together as part of the Richmond Family."
