More pieces to next season’s schedule have been revealed, as the Atlantic 10 announced next season’s home/away pairings.

With three less teams in the conference next season, the Rams will play four teams both home and away (as opposed to just one last season). Those teams are Richmond, George Washington, Fordham and last season’s A-10 champion, Saint Louis.

VCU’s will host Duquesne, Saint Bonaventure, Rhode Island and former CAA rival, George Mason.

The Rams will have a very challenging road lineup with games at Dayton, Saint Joseph’s, UMass and against last year’s only A-10 Sweet 16 representative, La Salle.

In the non-conference, VCU will host ETSU, Illinois State, Stony Brook, Winthrop and potentially other games TBD. They will travel to Belmont, Northern Iowa and UVA, with neutral court games against Boston College in Brooklyn and Virginia Tech at the Richmond Coliseum. VCU will also participate in next season’s Puerto Rico Tip-Off with potential games against Michigan, Kansas Sate, Northeastern, Georgetown, Charlotte, Florida State and Long Beach State.
