RICHMOND COACH SET FOR HEART SURGERY >> Richmond coach Chris Mooney said he is stepping away from the Spiders for the remainder of the season to undergo heart surgery.

Mooney, 50, said the procedure will be performed next week at the University of Virginia Medical Center to remove an aneurysm in his ascending aorta. Recovery is expected to take four to eight weeks.

A problem was first detected during a routine physical about a month ago, Mooney said at a news conference, and doctors were able to pinpoint the aneurysm during subsequent testing.

Assistant coach Peter Thomas will guide the Spiders (13-14) for their final four regular-season games.

Mooney is in his 18th season as coach of the Spiders, during which time he became their career victories leader with a 367-297 record.

He signed a three-year extension in June after guiding the Spiders to four straight victories in the Atlantic-10 Tournament — the last three against the top three seeds in succession — and an upset over Big Ten champion Iowa in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
