William and Mary Upsets No. 19 JMU, 1-0, in CAA Quarterfinal
Carly Falgowski Scores for Tribe as Gwen Hunter Records Seventh Shutout

NORFOLK, VA (November 4, 2005)-William and Mary senior defender Carly
Falgowski (Landenberg, PA) scored off her own rebound and sophomore
goalkeeper Gwen Hunter (Seaville, NJ) made three saves as the Tribe
field hockey team upset 19th-ranked James Madison, 1-0, this afternoon
in the quarterfinal round of the 2005 Colonial Athletic Association
Field Hockey Tournament, hosted by Old Dominion at Foreman Field.

W&M, seeded fifth in the tournament, evens its record at 10-10 with the
win, while the fourth-seeded Dukes fall to 11-9.

JMU's Melissa Stefaniak had a breakaway scoring opportunity 13 minutes
into the game, but Hunter eliminated the threat with a tackle at the top
of the circle. W&M took the ball down the field and quickly was awarded
a penalty corner. Falgowski's initial shot on the corner was saved by
the JMU goalkeeper, but she stayed for the rebound, putting it home for
the 1-0 Tribe lead.

That goal stood up throughout, with neither team really getting a good
scoring opportunity the rest of the way. For the game, W&M out-shot the
Dukes, 11-4, and held a 6-2 lead in penalty corners. Hunter made three
saves as she earned her seventh shutout of the season, while JMU
goalkeeper Lori Amico stopped four shots.

W&M will return to action tomorrow when the Tribe faces top-seeded ODU,
the nation's fourth-ranked team, in the semifinals at noon.
