With the series win over Wake, Duke Baseball moves up to third in the polls, Duke's highest ever ranking. :D

As far as I know, this is the first time both diamond teams have been in the top 10 together. (Top 5 together, actually)

Duke Softball continued their winning streak yesterday, Duke Baseball did not.
SB beat a good Liberty team, BB lost to a bad Rider team. (BB plays Rider again today.)

Rumor has the score Duke 18 and Rider 4 late in the game. :D

Yup, that game was over after the 1st, which ended 10-4 Duke. Nice recovery from our bats. :D

In the "Duke Sports you CAN watch this weekend" department, both teams are playing ACC foes.
Softball is in Tallahassee, playing a lesser but still always dangerous #16 FSU team, while baseball takes on #10 Clemson in Coombs. Maybe the basketball team can come watch, they have nothing else to do.

BB is at 4, SB is at 6

Both teams are winners!

SB was trouncing FSU by 10 late in the game, but then allowed the Seminoles bats to wake up, so we won by 5. BB won pretty soundly too.

It took extra innings, but Duke made the most of the 8th with four runs to secure the 9-5 win over Florida State. This is Duke's first series win over the Noles, and even better, they did it in their house!

Huge win for the program. :happy-bouncyblue:

The men lost Sunday to Clemson, losing the series 2-1 after winning on Friday.

Both SB and BB lost today, both on walk off runs. BB lost their series to State, SB still can take theirs vs Louisville tomorrow.

BB had an 8-2 lead to start the bottom of the 8th and entered the bottom of the 9th leading 8-3. The bullpen was an absolute shitshow giving up 6 in the bottom of the 9th. X(

After losing back-to-back series to Clemson and State, winning the series against #9 Virginia was huge.
