Terry Allen delivers in men's basketball game versus La Salle

By Jack Nicholson | February 25, 2014

University of Richmond head coach Chris Mooney said he had wanted to see Terry Allen play more aggressively following Richmond's loss to George Washington last Tuesday. "I think he just needs to go out with fire, play aggressively and really attack the game," Mooney said of the sophomore forward following Richmond's 73-65 loss to George Washington. Apparently, Allen listened. Allen was one of the most aggressive players on the floor in Richmond's 62-49 win over La Salle University, scoring a career-high 23 points on 9-16 shooting and grabbing nine rebounds. La Salle head coach John Giannini called Allen's combination of athleticism and skill unusual. "There's not many guys like that," Giannini said.

Jones' 25 not enough as Spiders fall to George Washington

By Jack Nicholson | February 19, 2014

Five George Washington University players scored in double figures as the Colonials bruised and bullied their way to a 73-65 victory in a game that had 14 lead changes Tuesday night at the Robins Center. George Washington, which is second in the Atlantic 10 in team rebounding, grabbed 16 offensive boards and out-rebounded Richmond, which is last in the A-10 in rebounding, 45-33. George Washington head coach Mike Lonergan was not surprised by his team's success on the glass. "I was hoping we could exploit that weakness even more," Lonergan said. Losing starting center Alonzo Nelson-Ododa to foul trouble early did not help.
