So the slide continues.
Once 6-0, James Madison fell to 6-4 after a 69-61 loss to Pittsburgh at Staten Island, N.Y. Madison senior forward Tamera Young had her best game of the year with 32 points on 12-20 shooting, but JMU was 0-12 on 3-pointers and freshman point guard Dawn Evans continued her slump with only eight points on 2-16 shooting.
Nine of her misses were from behind the arc.
Madison took a 35-33 lead into halftime in the Wagner Holiday Classic, but the Panthers fought back and took the lead for good with seven minutes, nine seconds left in the game. There were 13 ties and 10 lead changes in the rematch of JMU's 2007 NCAA tournament game at Pittsburgh.
JMU plays against Wagner on Monday in the final game of the Holiday Classic, which is hosted by Wagner. The Seahawks (2-7) play Pittsburgh tomorrow and are looking to break a seven-game losing streak.
It looks as if relief is finally in the forecast for JMU.
