The A-10 announced Jan. 14 the tournament would not be held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y., as planned because of the COVID-19 situation in New York City. At that time, it announced it would be held at a campus site.
One of the advantages of holding the 14-team tournament in Richmond is it’s a more central location. Two of the schools call the city home. Davidson, George Mason, George Washington, La Salle and Saint Joseph’s are all within a five-hour radius.
The two opening-round games on March 10 featuring the bottom four seeds will take place at Richmond’s Robins Center. The four second-round games on March 11 and four quarterfinals on March 12 will be split between the Robins Center and VCU’s Siegel Center. The semifinals on March 13 and championship game on March 14 will take place at the Robins Center.
The A-10 women’s tournament will also be held in Richmond. All games will take place at the Siegel Center from March 3-7.
