48 hours after dropping a tough, overtime game to cross town rivals, University of Richmond, VCU looked to bounce back against LaSalle.
LaSalle, still riding the high of handing Butler their first conference loss, was determined to get out of Richmond with a win and they did, 69-61.

As a result of their two impressive wins this week, LaSalle got selected as the Team of the Week in ESPN's Pick 'n' Roll column (sorry you had to share it with Nova), and Galloway got a well-deserved call out as well. It's nice to see the Explorers get some recognition. That's a long-suffering fanbase even by Dayton standards.

So disappointed that VCU was ejected from the Top 25 just before their visit to Kingston. It's not too often we get to host a top 25 team.

Reddic, Graham lead Rams past Rhody


VCU (17-5, 5-2) snapped a two-game losing streak tonight, surviving a 70-64 road battle at Rhode Island (6-13, 1-5).

Sophomore and VCU leading scorer, Treveon Graham, carried the Rams early, scoring 11 of his 19 points in the first half and giving the Rams a 1-point lead heading into the break.

It was a good game and good atmosphere tonight, congrats on the win. URI had 2 cold stretches in the second half that cost them the game

Join us this Saturday starting at 2PM for a special Ram Nation homecoming bash at Baja Bean Company on the corner of Main and Lombardy in the Fan where we will be warming up for the Rams 7PM homecoming tip against Fordham University.

Our friends at Baja, Virginia Paint Company, Kraken Rum and Richmond Trolley Company have joined forces to help us secure an open air trolley that we will shuttle in VCU’s “Diet Peppas” pep band to the Bean for some live music, and then shuttle Ram fans from Baja to the game.
