After a historic 22-7 season featuring a trip to both the ACC championship and the Sweet 16 — losing to eventual national champion Virginia in both — Duke is primed for another deep postseason run.

The group is led by redshirt senior Garrett Johns, the 2023 singles All-American who is returning after playing professionally in the fall.
