UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND, Va. - Women's soccer at Richmond is more than just a game; it's a family affair. "Anyone who has ever been involved in the program knows that they're part of a very special family," says Brooke Sands Roney, '01, who returned to the University as an assistant coach four years ago.

As a Spider student-athlete, Roney was a third-team All-American and an academic All-American. Since joining the coaching staff, she has organized the all-alumnae team that challenges the current varsity every April.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of women's soccer at Richmond, head coach Peter Albright, who has led the program since its inception, decided to turn the annual alumnae-varsity game into a full-fledged reunion. The coaches invited former players to return for an entire weekend of activities surrounding the game.
