In The Trenches With Light and Waller On Thursday's Spider Sportsline
10/02/2017 | Football
The Spider Sportsline digs into the trenches on this Thursday's show when redshirt senior defensive lineman Brandon Waller and senior offensive lineman Alex Light join head coach Russ Huesman at Outback Steakhouse, 7917 West Broad Street from noon-1pm.
The program, now in its tenth consecutive year at Outback, airs live this, and every Thursday, during the college football season from noon-1pm on ESPN 950, espnrichmond.com and RichmondSpiders.com. An audio archive of each week's show is available in the on-demand section of the SpiderTV player and in the Audio Vault at espnrichmond.com.
Waller, a preseason All-CAA selection, has recorded 20 tackles in the first four games, including two quarterback sacks. He had six tackles and a sack in the road win at then-No. 25 Colgate. The Ardmore, Pa native was a second team All-CAA selection last year when he racked up 51 tackles and 5 1/2 sacks in nine games. His season was cut short by a broken jaw.
Light has made a meteoric rise in four season and the 6-6, 310 pound Salem, Va. native is now being eyed by NFL scouts.  He leads an offensive line that has helped make the Spider offense one of the most prolific in FCS football, averaging 38.8 points per game, 417.5 passing yards per game and 557.5 total yards per game. He has started 31 consecutive games since his sophomore year.
Fans, alums and corporate partners are encouraged to attend the live show at Outback. Listeners can call-in during the program at 804-521-8501. Emails, texts and tweets can be sent anytime.
