Sitting pretty – JMU ranks ninth nationally in both major polls. The Dukes are in a great position heading into the end of the season. JMU is also just one win away from earning the No. 1 seed in the CAA Tournament. All in all, the Dukes have to be happy to be 12-3. 

Up next – JMU hosts Elon (4-10, 2-2 CAA) on Friday before hosting William & Mary (6-7, 1-3 CAA) on Sunday. Both games are winnable, and it’s likely JMU enters the postseason with a 14-3 regular-season record.
