The Atlantic 10 women’s conference tournament hasn’t had a back-to-back winner since George Washington took the championship home in 2015 and 2016. Saint Louis, the reigning champion, could have a tough time breaking that drought after the Billikens finished as the No. 7 seed.
Richmond, meanwhile, looks to win its first women’s conference championship since it joined the A-10 in 2001. The Spiders were undefeated at home this season and only have to travel 14 miles north to the site of the tournament in Glen Allen.
Richmond led the conference in scoring this season with 73.6 points per game. Saint Louis wasn’t far behind, though, with 73.4 points per game. VCU – the No. 2 seed – had the best defense in the A10 that allowed 52.0 points per game.
The top players to watch are Fordham’s Taylor Donaldson (18.0 ppg), Saint Louis’ Kyla McMakin (17.2 ppg) and Saint Joseph’s Talya Brugler (16.0 ppg).
Brugler is also the most efficient shooter in the tournament: She converts 54% of her field goals. Richmond’s Siobhan Ryan is the best 3-point shooter – she’s hit 49 shots from behind the arc with a 49% shooting percentage.
