ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. -- The stunned look on Richmond junior Kevin Anderson's face said it all. His runner from in the lane was in-and-out and instead of only a one-point Temple lead, Richmond continued to trail 49-46. The Spiders ended up losing to the Owls 56-52 in Sunday afternoon's Atlantic 10 final in Atlantic City, N.J.
The road to March has finally reached a crossroads as the month for college basketball officially commenced this week, and teams across the country await their fate in the NCAA bracket.
Walking to class at 7:30 a.m. can be a pretty solitary experience. It's often cold (especially this winter), and usually the only other humans we see are a few class-goers. Oh, and a lot of athletes, many of whom started their days between 5 a.m. and 6 a.m., before the sun got up.
When University of Richmond senior shooting guard David Gonzalvez walked out of the locker room after the Spiders' victory against Fordham University last week, several of Richmond's youngest fans were waiting, pen in hand, to ask him for his autograph.

I have expressed disdain in the past for the lack of sports support from the student body and have had trouble understanding the lack of interest. Being at Duke Saturday night, I was excited to see hundreds of red-shirted students standing and cheering for the team and actually joining some of our vocal alumni leading cheers and encouraging others. It was Chattanooga all over again.
Editor's Note: The Collegian is posting updates from University of Richmond women's track and field coach Lori Taylor, who is in Fayetteville, Ark., with sophomore Nicol Traynor for the 2009 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships. Traynor, competing in nationals for the first time, will race in the women's 5,000-meter run on Wednesday. She will also blog about the experience.
Sophomore Nicol Traynor has earned a bid to the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships in the 5,000-meter run, the fifth Spider all-time and the first distance runner in six years to represent Richmond at the meet.
The NCAA selection committee naming at-large bids for the outdoor track and field national championships won't release results until 3 p.m. Tuesday, not Monday, as originally expected.
Nicol Traynor will not automatically qualify for the NCAA national meet after a 12th place in the East Regional 5,000-meter run, but her school-record performance earlier this season could be enough to secure an at-large bid.
