ACC changes attendance policy for its baseball tournament in Charlotte later this month. Full capacity will be allowed.

18-2. Davidson is COMIN' BACK!
Q "Why do you like Duke, you didn't even go there." A "Because my art school didn't have a basketball team."
Duke goes 12-3 vs non-conference opponents in the regular season, with 2 losses to perennial power East Carolina, and one loss (vs 2 wins) to Coastal Carolina, another NCAA tournament fixture and former national champ.
Playing well going into the Clemson series and ACC Tournament.
Sigh. I've been around one-man umpiring crews a very, very long time ago. I admit that I should have added "at this level" to my post. It was irrelevant given the score.
5 in a row. Clemson is inconsistent, but the game is down there. We might have left campus for an extended road trip (Davidson-Clemson-ACC Tournament).
D1 baseball has one of its writers located in Durham. He's not a foreigner to our team, but he doesn't have us in the "first out" category. While I will argue with his choice of VT there, I can't argue leaving both teams off the "first out" list.

3-7 in ACC series is the biggest thing keeping us out. RPI is a little low (35 is better in the COVID-19 version). Making the ACC tournament semifinals is doable and probably what we need (guess only). The #12 seed, our likely destination, has had a big advantage and has won its pod the last 2 times. Win two games the first two days and then rest your staff until Saturday. That will change if it happens again.
Big game tonight at 6 at Clemson. Really need to win this series. Go Duke.

Thanks for the heads up. I did not realize it was a Thursday - Saturday series.

2-0 Devils after 2. Jack Carey on the mound.

Carey gets out of a bases loaded one out situation giving up just one run and duke leads 2-1 heading to the 4th.

Does Duke have a realistic shot at an NCAA bid apart from winning the ACC Tournament?

Chris Crabtree hits his second homer of the game. 3-1 Duke in the 6th.

Carey is through 6 at 85 pitches. Really great job.
