UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND, Va. – The University of Richmond announced Monday that Tracy Woodson has been named the eighth head coach of the Spider Baseball program.

Woodson, a five-year MLB veteran and World Series Champion, will be introduced at a press conference on Tuesday at 11 a.m. at the Robins Center. Fans will be able to watch the press conference live for free at RichmondSpiders.com.

"I am pleased to welcome Coach Woodson and his family to the University of Richmond," said Richmond Athletic Director Keith Gill. "Tracy is an experienced coach with a proven record of success at all levels of baseball. Coach Woodson is the perfect fit for Spider Baseball and we couldn't be more pleased with his hiring."

“I am excited about the opportunity to come to a school that’s known for academics and athletics,” Woodson remarked. “I’ve always had high expectations for myself and now those are going to be even higher here at Richmond. I would like to thank Keith Gill and the search committee for the trust and confidence they have shown in me.

“My goal is to get the program back to where it was when Richmond was winning conference championships and competing in the NCAA Tournament. The outpouring of support from family, friends and alumni has been unbelievable. I couldn’t be happier to be home.”
