press release

RICHMOND, Va. – The Atlantic 10 Conference announced Thursday it has entered a three-year partnership with the City of Richmond to bring the A-10 Women’s Basketball Championship to the Richmond Coliseum beginning in 2014. The announcement was made at a joint press conference held at the Richmond Downtown Marriott.

\”The opportunity to establish a long-term home for our women’s basketball championship and partner with the City of Richmond was one we could not pass up. We selected Richmond because it gives us the ability to build on our record attendance from last year’s championship and provide a true March Madness environment for our women’s basketball student-athletes,\” stated A-10 Commissioner Bernadette V. McGlade. \”I want to thank our head coaches and Directors of Athletics for their leadership in this selection and commend the City of Richmond, SMG and my staff for their commitment to making this a true win-win partnership for everyone involved.\”

Michael Martina (DOB 10/15/64), of Audubon, was sentenced today (9/20) to seven years in New Jersey state prison after pleading guilty 3/4/13 to second-degree endangering the welfare of a child, specifically, having improper oral contact with a nine-year-old child at his former Harrison Township residence in 2008.
