Last Meeting - UR 21, W&M 14

RICHMOND, Va. (3/6/21) -- W&M fell at Richmond, 21-14, in its 2021 spring season opener. The Tribe led in the fourth quarter, 14-13, but the Spiders regained the lead with 6:20 remaining and held on for a 2114 win. Joe Mancuso’s 6-yard touchdown pass to John Fitzgerald flipped the lead, and W&M’s offense was on the field for only three plays the rest of the way.

Quarterback Hollis Mathis accounted for 220 yards and both of his team’s touchdowns.

Defensively, the Tribe held Richmond to 310 yards, 159 of which came on two possessions.
