UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND, Va. -
The Spiders won their fourth straight with a 5-2 win over conference foe Saint Louis Friday afternoon in Richmond.
"Saint Louis gave us all we could handle," said head coach Mark Wesselink. "It took our best effort to pull it out. Our fight and determination was impressive against another talented and upset-minded team. A-10's will be a war this year. I'm glad we are getting a lot of good close matches to toughen us up."
