Schedule
[edit]Richmond's 2022–23 non-conference schedule featured 13 games, including a pair of games in the Navy Classic in Annapolis, Maryland, and another pair in the Puerto Rico Clasico in San Juan, Puerto Rico.[2]
In the Atlantic 10 portion of the schedule, Richmond was scheduled to play a total of 16 games, including home and away games against VCU and Davidson. In addition, Richmond was scheduled to host George Washington, George Mason, Saint Joseph's, La Salle, Saint Louis, and St. Bonaventure, while the Spiders would travel to Loyola Chicago, Rhode Island, Fordham, Massachusetts, Dayton, and Duquesne.[3] However, the away games at Davidson and Dayton were canceled due to COVID-19 issues in opponents' programs.
