Throughout the women's soccer team's injury-riddled season, there have been two constants-seniors Andi Melde and Samantha Baggett. The duo came through again Sunday, scoring all three Duke goals in the Blue Devils' 3-2 overtime victory over Florida State.
O Canada... the true North strong and free.
The women's soccer team did it again.
This is a big weekend for the women's soccer team.
The football team blew a great opportunity Saturday night. Believe it or not, Duke, who annually loses to Florida State by an average of 37 points, had a legitimate chance of beating the third-ranked Seminoles.
