Men Handle Colonels

JMU senior forward Terrance Carter led the Dukes with 17 points and five JMU players reached double figures in an 82-71 victory for the men's basketball team Wednesday at Eastern Kentucky.

Madison (4-1) overcame an early 18-7 deficit and led the Colonels 37-32 at halftime. The Dukes shot an impressive 27-34 in free throws, as Carter shot 9-9 from the line.

The Dukes face a tough task Friday at Northeastern (2-3). Despite their 13-19 record in 2006, the Huskies were 10-2 at home with victories over Hofstra and George Mason — here's their schedule from last year. If JMU improves to 5-1, is it time to expect double-digit wins this season?
