Duke is not playing great, but we'll win. Elizabeth already has a triple double with 16 points, 10 blocks, and 13 rebounds. This is our 2nd triple double of the season.

Ewill breaks the ACC single-game blocked shot record with 12. Still almost five minutes to go.

Watching that team makes me nuts. So, so many unforced turnovers (28 tonight).

I agree. The unforced turnovers are painful. But the passing and assists are much improved. This is such a young team, they can only get better. And it would really help if we could get Chole back on court.

Glad they won on the road but the 28 TO is mind-boggling. They had more TO than FG made. ARRGGHH!!

The Duke offense is ridiculously efficient when it doesn't turn the ball over. If I counted correctly, Duke had 55 possessions that didn't end with a turnover. They averaged almost 1.4 points per on those 55 possessions.

This is a Final Four team if it can learn to take care of the basketball.

If I heard correctly the team starts 4 sophomores and 1 freshman. They're very young and very talented. Or they're very talented, but very young.

I watched the game last night and was amazed at how Elizabeth Williams dominated the inside. She intimidated at least as many shots as she blocked.

I saw the highlights for the Duke WF game on Wral and WTVD this morning. Elizabeth had a fantastic game. I heard on Duke Radio, Chloe is out due to issues with her grades. Amber Henson is out the rest of season and had or is having surgery. The girls at times play scrappy, but find a way to Win. Congrats to Coach P and the team and staff on a great ACC win! I hope Chloe can resolve those issues with her Grades and get back into rotation.
