The Dukes head down to Williamsburg on Sunday for a game against the Tribe at Kaplan Arena. Tipoff is 1:00 PM and unfortunately since this is a game on a CAA court the only TV will be our old friend FLOSports. Which I am sure just about all of us have ditched as soon as possible earlier. Know I did!!! So being able to watch will be a challenge at best.

Game is relatively close so I would hope that a good turnout of Purple and Gold will be there. Wife and I are planning on heading down tomorrow to ROOT!! The Dukes are on a 3 game win streak and seem to be playing better as of late so this should be a good game.

Wife noticed today that the Tribe has anew first year Head Coach. Not sure why they did not renew the contract on the longtime previous coach so not sure what impact if any this will have,

Go Dukes!!

Cheer for me please!

I don’t see how our team is 6-2, with losses only to Maine (now 3-7) and current #8 UNC. It would be nice to get this road win against a former CAA foe.

At the half, JMU is up 34-26. Peyton has 11 points on 3-5 from3....Kiki and Claire have 6.

Dukes crush the Tribe 75-60. Peyton and Kiki end up with 17 points, Claire and Kseniia had 11. Mikaya Tynes had her first minutes on the court all year and scored 2 points. Dukes had a huge 53-31 rebound edge. Good game all around.

Glad to see Tynes back! She's been missed. And a good butt-kicking of someone was needed.

Agreed glad to see Mikaya back on the court, she has been missed. Now if we can get Annalicia back also this team could be scary good at the center/forward positions.

One of the best 2nd halves I’ve watched from these ladies lately. Shared the ball well and played good defense. The St. Joes potential match up looks very intriguing and should be a good measuring stick.

Is Kobe eligible beginning the next game? I’m even more intrigued to see her play.

Since I could only follow with the W&M live game stats, I noticed they had plus/minus numbers for both teams players during the game. Has anyone seen those for our womens team ( either game by game or season long)? I would be interested in looking those over.

I am not sure but I think that Kobe should be eligible as soon as exams are over since I believe that concludes the fall semester. If not for the Hampton game on Saturday then most definitely for the games later in the month. Waiting anxiously on Annalicia to be back in the lineup.

One important thing I have noticed in the last number of games is that the number of assists has gone up dramatically when compared to the first couple games of the season. Seems to show much better passing and play running. Some of the assists the last few games have been things of beauty!!
