\"Great<\/a>

Great season Dukes!<\/p><\/div>\n

For the second year in a row, JMU’s women’s lacrosse team fell in the CAA Championship to top-seeded Towson. \u00a0This time it was \u00a0in truly heartbreaking fashion as the Tigers scored the game-winner with 34 seconds left in OT to prevail 12-11<\/a>. As expected, the CAA was deemed unworthy of an at-large bid, though to be fair there wasn’t a single team you’d consider a mid-major (at least not in lax) from anywhere selected as an at-large. Really crummy luck for the Dukes, but a fantastic season from the women and hopefully they’re proud. We sure were.<\/p>\n

Only softball, baseball, and a little track still playing till the JMU athletic year is over, though of course not to worry – there will be big CAA action against big rivals like Elon and Stony Brook and Winthrop to look forward to for years to come!<\/p>\n
