The Atlantic 10 announced its women’s basketball league pairings for the upcoming 2015-15 season on Thursday.
A 16-game conference schedule for each of the A-10’s 14 members will allow every team to play each other at least once and three teams twice.
Reigning A-10 champion GW will take on Dayton, George Mason and Richmond both home and away next season. The Colonials played the same three teams twice in 2014-15, going 6-0 en route to a final regular season A-10 record of 15-1.
GW will also host La Salle, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Saint Louis and VCU at the Smith Center, and pay visits to Davidson, Duquesne, Fordham, St. Bonaventure and Saint Joseph’s next season.
The Colonials are coming off one of their best seasons in program history. After defeating Dayton in the A-10 championship final, the historic, 29-win campaign was cut short by a first round loss to No. 11 Gonzaga in the 2015 NCAA Tournament.
The league as a whole also sent five teams to the postseason in 2015, while three A-10 players were selected in the 2015 WNBA draft.
The 2016 A-10 women’s basketball championship will be played March 2-6, 2016 at the Richmond Coliseum.
