The Spiders third-place finish on the women's side is the program's best since back-to-back seconds in 2006 and 2007.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Senior Amy Van Alstine won both the 1,500m and the 5,000m events on Sunday and was named the A-10 Championship Women's Track Most Outstanding Performer as the Richmond women finished third overall at the 2011 Track & Field Championship. The men's team took home ninth.
Van Alstine set both the school and meet record in taking home the 1,500m title Sunday, winning in a time of 4:19.38 - the first sub-4:20 time in league history. She followed that victory up later Sunday afternoon by winning gold in the 5,000m in 16:39.56 en route to the program's first-ever Most Outstanding Track Performer award.
Nicol Traynor (16:41.87) was right behind Van Alstine in the 5,000m as the Spiders went 1-2 in the event. Jill Prentice took home 10th (17:37.47).
Van Alatine stands as the first-ever Spider to win the women's 5,000m and is Richmond's third all-time women's 1,500m champion after Ruth Chege won it in 2002 and 2003.
Senior Matt Llano also claimed the victory in the men's 5,000m, leading wire-to-wire and becoming the second Spider in three years to win that event after senior Andrew Benford was the A-10 champion in 2009. Freshman Ryan Lee closed hard to claim fourth in this year's 5,000m (14:44.36).
