Quick note from SportsBlog HQ: Posts may be spotty the next week given family commitments on one side and a vacation on the other, but make sure to check back often for the Elite 8 of the JMU Food Bracket.\u00a0 Biltmore’s Thumbs and Toes are struggling so if you’re a supporter, please vote now.\u00a0 Blimpie, on the other hand is going all Cornell and just pummeling cats.<\/p>\n

Now on to the bittersweet news of the day.\u00a0 The Women’s Basketball team fell in the Big Dance on Sunday in a tight game with Temple.\u00a0 Here’s the full writeup <\/a>from JMU Sports, but nonetheless the team\u00a0finished a strong season and continued building on the solid foundations laid by Coach Kenny Brooks.\u00a0 The LadyDukes won the CAA by finally knocking off ODU in the title game.\u00a0 Not to mention superstar Dawn Evans had an All-World season and we here at SB wish her all the best in an uncertain offseason<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Oh yeah, and Temple trailed UCONN 55-12 at halftime and you didn’t even wonder for a second if that was a typo in the second round game so all my bravado about a Northern Iowa shocker probably wasn’t in the cards even if they’d advanced.<\/p>\n
