TALLAHASSEE, Fla.—It was bound to happen eventually.
Battling the Tigers Saturday afternoon, it was the Blue Devils who earned their stripes.
Sportswrap is your one-stop shop for everything Duke athletics, where we’ll recap how each of Duke’s sports currently in competition performed over the last week and give a brief look ahead. Here’s our recap for the week of Jan. 23-29.
Before Duke's home-court showdown against Wake Forest Tuesday night, the Blue Zone takes a look at the last matchup between the teams and previews the upcoming game:
As the saying goes, if at first you do not succeed, try, try again. After failing to reach the ITA National Team Indoor Championships each of the past two years, the Blue Devils punched their ticket Sunday with a 4-1 victory against Wisconsin.
When was the last time you heard someone speaking with a Southern accent? Maybe a native Durhamite or a Duke employee? Let me rephrase that question: when was the last time you heard another Duke student speak in a Southern accent? Beyond the socially acceptable occasional “y’all” about half of us have adopted, my answer to that is, well, never.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla.—There is the good, the bad and the ugly, but Sunday afternoon's game in the Donald L. Tucker Civic Center was all ugly for the 16th-ranked Blue Devils in their 70-57 loss against No. 24 Florida State.
After each Duke men’s basketball game this season, check back here for the Player of the Game and more. The Blue Devils dominated Georgia Tech on the road Saturday, and the Blue Zone breaks down their success:
CHAPEL HILL—For its final dual meet of the 2022-2023 season, Duke headed 20 minutes south to Koury Natatorium to face off against North Carolina. Although Duke came away empty-handed from Chapel Hill, losing on the women’s side 156-144 and in men’s 180-119, the Blue Devils did not leave without setting off some fireworks for spectators to enjoy.
Some might think that running in circles loses its appeal after a while. When it comes to Duke, however, it never seems to; the Blue Devils always have a record to break or a meet to blow out of the water to keep those circles interesting.
ATLANTA—Duke had arguably its best performance of the season Saturday afternoon as it easily handled Georgia Tech on the road at McCamish Pavilion. It was a demonstration of how, despite some rocky losses early in the season and in recent years against Georgia Tech, head coach Jon Scheyer and his team understand how to make each other better after a setback.
Our nation is, yet again, crying out for justice, equality, reform, and answers — answers to the same question — asking why this happened again.
ATLANTA—Looking to claim its second road win of the season, Duke got off to a hot start Saturday afternoon at Georgia Tech. With one half down and one half to go, the Blue Devils are in control 43-25.
ATLANTA—Despite sitting nearly 400 miles away from Durham, McCamish Pavilion was loaded with Duke blue. The Blue Devils responded accordingly, rolling the Yellow Jackets on their opponent’s home court.
The Blue Devils look to bounce back Saturday afternoon in a matchup against Georgia Tech. In anticipation of the contest, the Blue Zone has you ready with some can’t-miss prop bets:
Duke simply cannot stack wins on top of each other right now, and its NCAA tournament resume is suffering. But a pivotal couple weeks offers the program a chance to finally build momentum in conference play.
On Thursday night, 2,207 people crowded into Cameron Indoor Stadium to watch No. 16 Duke record a convincing 66-55 win against No. 12 Virginia Tech. But Cameron Indoor’s largest crowd of the season was not instigated by the matchup’s implications for the ACC regular-season title, or its significance in helping secure Durham as a host site in the NCAA tournament.
Duke men's basketball is heading to Atlanta to take on Georgia Tech, and the Blue Zone has three keys for the Blue Devils to alleviate their recent road woes:
In a hard-fought battle against the Hokies Monday, the Blue Devils suffered a casualty. Landing badly on his left leg mid-matchup, freshman forward Dariq Whitehead spent the latter half of the game leaning on crutches and watching from the sideline: a sight threateningly reminiscent of the season’s start, when an injury prevented him from seeing the court until Duke’s fourth game. In a press conference Thursday, however, head coach Jon Scheyer relayed that, fortunately for the Blue Devils, Whitehead’s latest injury would not be season-ending.
