Kevin Anderson's debut in the Robins Center four years ago was impressive for a freshman as he scored four points, had four assists and four rebounds. But compared to his finale in the Robins Center Saturday afternoon, it was nothing special.

PHILADELPHIA — All senior point guard Kevin Anderson could do was watch. Temple junior guard Ramone Moore had stripped the ball from Anderson near midcourt and Anderson, slowly getting up from the floor after a failed attempt to regain the ball, got a clear view of Moore's one-handed dunk. It was that type of night for the University of Richmond, as it lost 73-53 Thursday night at the Liacouras Center in Philadelphia, Pa.

For Richmond coach Chris Mooney's tenure at Richmond, which is now in its sixth season, it has been a story of patience for him. He came to Richmond in 2005 and was 37-54 through his first three seasons before his patience in his Princeton-based system paid off with back-to-back 20-win seasons the past two years and a trip to the NCAA Tournament last year. With his team squarely on the bubble for another tournament berth this year, Mooney's latest project that has tested his patience is starting to exceed even his expectations.

As a native Richmonder, I have grown up knowing the Richmond vs. VCU basketball rivalry. Though it may not be as nationally well-known as, say, the Tobacco Road rivalry of Duke and UNC-Chapel Hill, this little East vs. West Cary Street throw down is always a crowd-pleaser. The Spiders' Saturday night romp was no exception.

Virginia Commonwealth University's campus is only a 10-minute drive to the Robins Center, but for the first half on Saturday night, Virginia Commonwealth played like a team that had just arrived from a cross-country flight. Richmond held VCU to 17 first-half points in Richmond's 72-60 victory Saturday night in front of 8,906 fans at the Robins Center.

It would be understandable if the University of Richmond men's basketball team struggled defensively early on this season after losing David Gonzalvez and Ryan Butler, two of the best defenders in school history, to graduation after the end of last season. Instead, this year's team has exceeded even Richmond coach Chris Mooney's expectations.
