WRESTLING MEN'S SOCCER JMU has revenge in mind

Bv DAVID CLEMENTSON senior writer

Two things are on the men's S0COH team's mind as it heads to Virginia Beach this morning: rings and revenge. Twice in the last three years the Dukes have made it to the Colonial Athletic Association Conference championship <1W8 and 2000), losing both times despite being expected to win. "We've been expected to win at least twice," senior for- ward Mike Godwin said. But the squad hopes to keep their momentum from an outstand- ing season rolling and bring home the CAA champion rings. JMU rival the College of William & Mary captured the last tWOCAA titles William & Mary beat us 4-0 in the final," Godwin said. "We were the No. 1 seed and lost." At Monday's practice, coach Tom Martin showed the team a CAA champion ring to get them pumped up for the finals this weekend.
