Before a tenacious crowd of 4331 at the Convocation Center, the Dukes defeated the Mon- archs 69-56 for their third- straight win. The Dukes, who trailed for a total of two minutes, used multi- ple defenses to confuse ODU and hold them to 34 percent field goal shooting. Junior guard Jamar Perry paced the Dukes with 21 points on 7-15 shooting, including sev- eral key baskets down the stretch as JMU avenged a two- point loss at ODU on Jan. 6. The win improved the Dukes record to 12-7 overall, but more importantly, 5-4 in the CAA, the first time this season they have been above .500. "This was a big game for us," junior point guard Jabarri Outtz said. "We wanted a little revenge, and there is the rival- ry." Outtz was a major factor in the Dukes win, running the JMU offense and scoring 18 points. As the Dukes began to pull away at the start of the second half, it appeared ODU wasn't up to the task of performing in front of the raucous Convo crowd, as the Monarchs committed 16 turnovers to the Dukes six. "We were putting the test to them," JMU senior Chatney Howard said. "Everybody was having fun, and thafs when we seem to play our best. The crowd, which included a full Zoo Cage and student sec- tion, had the most fun of all. The crowd exploded after a thunderous dunk by junior Kevan Johnson in the first half and disrupted the ODU offense throughout the game. "The crowd was messing with them," Howard said. "It was loud out there." ODU coach Jeff Capel admit- ted the crowd disrupted the Monarchs. "Their crowd was great," ROBERT NATT/staffphotographer Capel said.

One of the easiest and most convenient ways to get a solid workout is running. For those who enjoy a leisurely jog around campus or a fast-paced trek through the arboretum, the good news is there's a club just for you. The bad news: no one seems to know it exists. "We have a running club?" said con- fused senior Don Cambria when asked if he ever thought about joining. Cambria used to run for the' Dukes' cross-country team and still trains on his own. Cambria isn't the only one in the dark about the club. On a campus where one can see dozens of people jogging each day, the average attendance over the past couple of weeks at running club group STEVE GLASS/contributing phiilogropher runs has been about five to 10 students, JMU running club members (toft to right) Dan Salgado, Scott Schaeffer, Christine Messina, Guillermo Ubilla and Megan according to junior Guillermo Ubilla, the Peterson go for a Jog past UREC.
