Glover Named Second-Team All-Atlantic 10; Oldham Tabbed To All-Rookie Team
Nov. 26, 2009
UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND, Va. - Richmond senior Fynn Glover was named to the Atlantic 10 All-Conference Second-Team and freshman Houston Oldham was named to the All-Rookie Team in voting conducted among the league's coaches. Glover was a four-year starter at midfielder for the Spiders, who earned Atlantic 10 All-Rookie honors as a freshman. The Chattanooga, Tenn. native finished his career with one goal and three assists for five points.
"There isn't a more deserving player on our team this year than Fynn Glover," Richmond head coach Clint Peay said. "Fynn was the heart and soul of our team leaving everything on the field every game. He was the most dominant defensive midfielder in our league at winning headers and breaking up plays. His impact to the team will be hard to replace." Oldham was a back who led the Spiders with five goals and one assist for 11 points as a freshman. He had one game-winning goal and started 17 of the 18 games for the Spiders. "Houston was a wonderful surprise for us this season," Peay said. "Physically, technically, and mentally Houston was able to step in right away without any difficulty. As a starting center back he showed a knack of scoring goals at clutch moments in games. We believe he is going to make a big impact in our conference over the next several of years."
