CLEMSON, S.C.—Duke traveled to Clemson in pursuit of its first ACC win Saturday in its first-ever matchup against the previously unranked Tigers. It would leave Historic Riggs field empty-handed, falling to Clemson 11-10 in a tight matchup that saw five lead changes and the largest gap being just three goals.
Despite clear skies and balmy weather Saturday afternoon at American Legion Memorial Stadium in Charlotte, Duke’s 14-6 loss to Notre Dame was all but sunny.
Duke’s star power at the plate was on full display this weekend, with a 10-3 win Sunday against Baylor to sweep the three-game series, and decisive wins of 20-1 Friday and 22-3 Saturday. While they did get off to a slower start Sunday than in the previous two games, once the Blue Devils turned it into overdrive, they did not let up. The eighth inning saw big hits from Andrew Fischer, Jay Beshears, Alex Stone and MJ Metz that busted the game open for the Blue Devils, who tallied six runs to extend their lead from 4-3 to the final 10-3. With that, they sent the Bears back to Waco, Texas, with three more in the loss column.
