A graduate from Berklee College of Music, Icelandic-Chinese artist Laufey is a trained pianist and cellist who blends her classical roots with her love of traditional jazz in her composition. Laufey’s debut album “Everything I Know About Love” (2022) is more like a documentary on some of her immediate, existential contemplations during her emerging adulthood, while her second album “Bewitched,'' released a year later, is both an extension and a zoomed-in close-up of recent life imagined in her debut album.

But Saturday, head coach Mike Elko’s squad will face likely its best opponent of the season, as Duke will travel to Tallahassee, Fla., to take on presumed ACC favorite No. 4 Florida State. 


Column: Belin was fine, but Duke football needs Leonard back to compete with Florida State

(10/18/23 7:48pm)

The “next-man-up” mentality is nothing new in sports. It’s especially prevalent in football, a brutally physical competition that often leads to several injuries per game.
