HARRISONBURG, Va. – Just 1:52 into overtime, William & Mary's Cammie Lloyd scored the game-winning goal as No. 17 James Madison field hockey (11-4, 3-2 CAA) fell 4-3 to the Tribe (7-8, 3-2 CAA) in Colonial Athletic Association action on Friday night, snapping a five-game win-streak.

Junior goalkeeper Sara Kraeutler saved Lloyd's original shot, but it ricocheted back to Estelle Hughes, who gave it back to Lloyd for the high shelf score. The goal capped a stretch of 41:33 where the Tribe outscored the Dukes 4-1.

All three overtime shot attempts came from William & Mary, though JMU finished with a 12-11 overall edge. The Dukes also earned six penalty corners to the Tribe's four, marking the first time this season JMU has lost when winning the corner contest.

JMU held the 2-0 lead early off goals by junior Hannah Hall and sophomore Melissa Wilken, but the Tribe scored the next three within a 5:50 span bridging the halves to take a 3-2 lead. Hall led all Dukes with three points after assisting on junior Melanie Kusakavitch's game-tying corner deflection in the 42^nd minute.

The Dukes conclude their home slate on Sunday, Oct. 23 with a noon match-up against No. 7 Louisville.
