QUICK HITS
- The Dukes are riding a 16-game win streak after a 65-43 win at Delaware on Wednesday night. The streak is tied with Army for the seventh-longest streak in the nation. It also matches the longest winning streak in the Kenny Brooks era (Dec.29, 2006 - Feb.18 2007).
- Senior guard Angela Mickens dished out nine assists in Wednesday's contest, pushing her season total to 191, just three behind Jess Cichowicz in third on the all-time leaderboards with 194.Â
- The Cougars are coming off a 68-24 win over UNCW on Wednesday night for their fifth conference win. CofC was led by redshirt senior forward Jackie Luna-Castro with a game-high 23 points.Â
- Earlier this season, James Madison defeated Charleston 83-61 at the Convocation Center, marking the start of the Dukes' current 16-game win streak.
- JMU holds a 4-1 advantage in the all-time series against CofC with the Dukes' only loss coming in 2014 at TD Arena. This season, James Madison owns a 9-3 record in true road games while Charleston is 7-7 at home.
- This week, JMU received a vote in both the AP Top 25 and USA Today Coaches poll.
- The Dukes are second nationally in 3-point field goal defense (.234) and third in rebounds per game (46.64).
RULES CHANGES
- FORMAT:Â Instead of two 20-minute halves, women's basketball games will now have four 10-minute periods with an intermission between the first and second periods and the third and fourth periods as well as a 15-minute halftime intermission.
- FOULS:Â A player will be awarded two free throws for each common foul committed by a team starting with the fifth team foul in each period - there are no more 1-and-1 situations. Team foul counts will reset at the beginning of each period.
- TEAM-CALLED TIMEOUTS:Â Each team will have four timeouts to be used during the course of the game (three 30-second timeouts and one full 60-second timeout). Three timeouts carry over to the second half; if no timeout is taken in the first half, a team loses one 30-second timeout. If the game goes past regulation, one 30-second timeout is awarded for each extra period, plus the remaining second-half timeouts.
- MEDIA TIMEOUTS (2:45 in length):Â There will be seven media timeouts during regulation time: three prior to halftime and four after halftime. The intermission between the first and second periods as well as the intermission between the third and fourth periods will count as media timeouts. Each period will have one media timeout at either the first team-called timeout of the period OR the first dead ball at or below the five-minute mark. A floating media timeout will take place during either the third or fourth period at the first team-called timeout. This will not eliminate the set media timeout of that period.
