JMU Softball Has Perfect Weekend

While the first tournament the JMU Softball team participated in this year, the Cathedral City Kickoff, ended up with them losing 3 or 4 games, the Dukes rebounded this weekend. They traveled to Charleston, SC to compete in the College of Charleston Classic. The Dukes only allowed 8 runs in 5 games (including 2 shutouts), they scored 25 runs beating Howard, East Tennessee State, Syracuse, Akron, and the College of Charleston. While the conference season doesn't start for over a month, it will be crucial for the Dukes to get in some good wins early in these tournaments. They were ranking #2 in the CAA's preseason rankings, so expectations are high as the season continues.
