Treys key Tribe Victory

James Madison lost its fifth straight game of the season and its eighth consecutive matchup with William & Mary, as the Tribe shot 10-of-15 on 3-pointers and Madison couldn't hit one to tie the game as time ran out Thursday night.

Junior guard Abdulai Jalloh led JMU with 19 points on 5-of-10 shooting, but also turned the ball over nine times. Jalloh and junior forward Juwann James tied for the team lead with seven rebounds.

William & Mary senior guard Nathan Mann led the Tribe with 19 points on 5-of-8 shooting. His 3-pointer with 2:15 left in the game put W&M up 57-52 and stymied JMU's comeback for good.

JMU fell to 10-10 overall, 3-7 in the Colonial Athletic Association, and the Tribe improved to 11-9, 7-3. Madison has eight games left to pick up the pieces before the CAA tournament starts in early March.
