THE UNIvERSITy OF RHODE ISLAND is the largest university in the nation’s smallest state, but with 12,793 undergraduates and 3,111 graduate/professional students, URI is small enough to be friendly, intimate, safe and student-centered. In part because of its of its unique location - six miles from Rhode Island’s coastal beaches and the Narragansett Bay - the University has developed strong marine programs and has been designated a national Sea Grant institution.

THE 2008-09 ACADEMIC yEAR saw many of Rhode Island’s teams continue to build on their previous season’s successes. The Rhody baseball team led the way, recording a program-best 37 victories with wins over No. 8 Miami, No. 11 Oklahoma State and No. 25 Ohio State. Making their seventh consecutive appearance in the Atlantic 10 Championship - the league’s longest active streak - the Rams earned a first-round bye before defeating third-seeded Xavier (7-6) and top-seeded Dayton (9-2) to advance to the championship game. The URI women’s tennis program was equally as impressive, turning in a 15-4 record - including a perfect 6-0 mark in the fall - and winning its third consecutive New England Championship title. The Rhode Island men’s basketball team won 23 games en route to earning a spot in the postseason NIT for the second straight year while URI’s football team captured the Governor’s Cup for the third consecutive season and the sixth time in the last eight years. Appearing in A-10 tournament for the sixth year in a row in 2008, the Rhody men’s soccer program also holds the league’s best active streak for consecutive appearances at the conference championship. The URI men’s track & field squad captured the team title at the New England Outdoor Championship while placing second at the Atlantic 10 indoor and outdoor meets. The Rhody women, meanwhile, finished third at each of the conference championship meets while URI’s rowing team finished runner-up at the Atlantic 10 Championship.

URI’s Student-Athlete Advisory Council (SAAC) helps organize many of these activities, as well as the highly successful “Pink Out” - which began in 2006 as the first-ever breast cancer charity event linked to an NCAA Division I men’s basketball game.

During weekly meetings, student-athletes have the opportunity to discuss academic problems and work on time management/study skills. Because of their professional relationship with many of the faculty, our advisors are able to help students communicate effectively with their professors. They also assist with scheduling classes, selecting majors and researching internship opportunities.

The.Atlantic.10.is.tough.because.rarely.are.there.easy.games.-.no.matter.where.your.opponent.is.in.the.standings..The.teams.in.this.league.play.with.a.lot.of.determination.and.pride,.which.is.reflective.of.the.type.of.kids.that.attend.our.institutions..The.number.of.players.from.the.A-10.that.have.gone.onto.successful.professional.careers.in.Major.League.Soccer.shows.that.our.league.is.as.competitive.as.any.league.in.the.country..To.be.one.of.the.elite.teams.in.our.league.you.must.establish.consistency.as.well.as.a.history,.tradition.and.a.mentality.of.success..These.are.all.components.which.we.have.in.place.here.at.URI.-.and.as.long.as.we.are.able.to.maintain.excellence.in.these.areas,.the.Ocean.State.will.continue.its.tradition.of.successful.soccer..

Since joining the Atlantic 10 in 1987, URI has captured six championship titles – which is more than any other team in the league. what goes into building a program so rich in success and tradition?What.Ed.Bradley.built.before.I.got.here.was.a.combination.of.exceptionally.talented.players.fused.with.those.who.knew.their.roles.and.could.perform.their.duties.at.the.highest.level..It.takes.competitive.players.who.are.willing.to.sacrifice.their.own.personal.accolades.for.the.success.of.the.team.and.program..Those.individual.honors.did.come.with.winning.but.more.importantly,.that.winning.established.Rhode.Island.men’s.soccer.as.a.premier.program..As.we.all.have.seen,.there.are.many.of.examples.where.“success.breeds.success”.and.this.is.no.different.here..All.URI.needed.was.that.one.successful.team/era.of.players.-.then.everyone.who.followed.wanted.to.experience.what.those.guys.did..This.is.as.true.now.as.it.was.in.1987.when.URI.joined.the.A-10..Along.the.way,.there.can.be.some.bumps.and.stumbles.but.in.the.end,.the.roots.of.the.program.are.strong.and.it.would.take.a.lot.to.destroy.the.fruit.that.it.bears.

THE ATLANTIC 10 CONFERENCE... On March 2, 1975, the idea of what is now the Atlantic 10 Conference was conceived. What started as an eight-school, men’s basketball-only affiliation has grown into a 14-university, 21-sport league that is universally hailed as one of the best conferences in the country. That growth and prominence is a direct result of the ideals and commitments of the member institutions of the Atlantic 10 - the University of Dayton, Duquesne University, Fordham University, The George Washington University, La Salle University, University of Massachusetts, University of North Carolina at Charlotte, University of Rhode Island, University of Richmond, St. Bonaventure University, Saint Joseph’s University, Saint Louis University, Temple University, and Xavier University.
