Thanks to all for the updates. I only watched the last inning of today's game, so the other two I was living vicariously through your posts. I think I was close to calling DD just on reading yesterday's updates alone. Reading that game in the span of 90 seconds was almost too much for a heart to bear.
Glad we ended way better than we started. On to a fulfilling season!

A sweep would have been better, but this was an important series win. Army is a good copy of what we'll see in the NCAA Tournament; a strong #1 starter with less weekend depth. Army won @NCSU in the NCAAs a couple years ago in game 1.
On to Bill, Mary, and Cornell. Step 1 is to win enough for an NCAA bid. Step 2, winning record against UNC/NCSU/Wake/ECU, can't be ignored on the way.
Today’s game versus William & Mary about to start on ACCNX.

Still 5-0 B8.
That's a 5-0 Blue Devil winner. Two shut outs in a row.

Five Duke pitchers combined to shut out W & M: Chillari, Herrick, Dockman, Carey and Mervis.
Next up is Cornell in this weekend’s series.

Depending on the poll, Duke is ranked around 16, dropping one or two spots. That works for me.
