A Note from Coach Dave Robbins

I would like to thank the loyal players and fans who joined the 2008-2009 Round Ball Club in our inaugural year. I had hoped we would have more participation, but it has been difficult to get in touch with many of you because we didn’t have a current address on file. I am hoping that word will spread and we will hear from every player, both men and women, who had the honor of playing at Virginia Union and helped to build our very proud legacy.

Coach Coker and his team had an outstanding year with a 21-7 record. Virginia Union won the CIAA Eastern Division and was runner up to J.C. Smith in the CIAA Tournament. Coach Coker was voted CIAA Coach of the Year and took his team back to the NCAA Regional Tournament in his first year.
