RICHMOND, Va. --
There is no indication the University of Richmond administration is reconsidering its position regarding the discontinuation of men's soccer, which makes Friday night's game against VCU at Robins Stadium the program's final act.

Eight Atlantic 10 Conference teams qualify for the league tournament Nov. 8-11 in Charlotte. Richmond (6-11, 2-6) will not be among them.

Board of Trustees affirms sports cuts, doesn’t vote again

The Board of Trustees met today at the University of Richmond for its regularly scheduled meeting. In what may be the final word on the matter, the board restated its decision to add men’s lacrosse and cut men’s soccer and track and field.

Kyle Ragan, a senior on the track team, issued this statement after learning of the decision, “We are obviously disappointed in the outcome, but this does not mean that we will stop our fight.”

The trustees did not take another vote on the matter, as some proponents of the “Carry the Flag” movement had hoped. The affirmation of the decision was confirmed by a source privy to the meeting.

On Thursday, about fifty students protested the decision at the Board of Trustees luncheon.

Bobby Ukrop resigns from UR board

One of University of Richmond’s largest donors and the former head of a local grocery chain stepped down this month from the school’s board of trustees.

Bobby Ukrop resigned at a Dec. 7 meeting of the board, according to a source close to the family, who said Ukrop was upset by a perceived lack of transparency in the school’s decision to cut men’s soccer and track in favor of men’s lacrosse. Two other sources familiar with the UR board of trustees confirmed Ukrop’s departure.
