10.01.2007: week 1

NCAA Division I Football has over 200 teams, and before last weekend the Richmond Spiders were one of 5 teams that still had not played a home game. That changed Saturday as the #25 Spiders beat the #11 New Hampshire Wildcats. Tim Hightower (above, left #22) and Eric Ward combined for 385 of Richmond’s offensive yards. Hightower’s first of three touchdowns (below) came with 9:07 remaining in the 1st quarter.
