Duke On The Diamond - 2024

[CameronBornAndBred]

Baseball pulled a miracle out of their butts and swept with a walk-off win, Softball did so in a more resounding manner.

DUKE SOFTBALL IS THE NUMBER ONE TEAM IN THE COUNTRY!!!!

Texas took the weekend series from #1 Oklahoma, and Duke moves to number one!!

For the first time this season, a team not named Oklahoma sits atop the Top 25 poll. The Duke Blue Devils are the new No. 1 team according to Softball America.

It was on ACCN last night. Our shortstop gacked a 2 out grounder with the bases loaded and Campbell scored 3 unearned runs.

Duke wins game 1 in Pittsburgh 14-4. Second game starts in 45 minutes.

Duke wins game 2 of the doubleheader 4-3 to win the series. Now we need to get the sweep tomorrow.

Baseball couldn't sweep. They should have, but fell apart, badly. Softball, however, did their job and took three from Clemson and retains a top three ranking.

Duke beat Virginia Tech 9-8 in 11 innings Friday night to improve to 28-10. I turned it off and went to bed at 6-6. Kyle Johnson will be on the mound tonight as Duke looks to win the series. First pitch scheduled for 7 pm.

[Bob Green]

Duke fell 2-1 in 11 innings. I went to bed after the 10th inning finished. Rubber match today with first pitch scheduled for 1 pm. We need this one.

Softball lost their first series of the year yesterday.

[Bob Green]

Duke beats VT 13-10 to take the series 2-1. Big to win the series on the road against a Top 25 opponent.

Softball falls from 3rd to 6th in the polls after the double-header loss on Saturday. Here's hoping they win out to keep a hosting spot.

Nice mid-week win last night over #6 ECU.

[Bob Green]

Nice mid-week win last night over #6 ECU.

That’s a big win come tournament seeding in a couple weeks.

That’s a big win come tournament seeding in a couple weeks.

I read on yet another board formed by a significant number of disgusted emigrants from OY that the win over ECU is Duke's 6th (? 7th) win over a top 10 ranked foe this season. Amazing.

Duke won their first game of the ACC softball tournament today. It was not easy, won with a walk-off homer in the 10th, final score 2-0 over BC.

Duke will be playing Clemson tomorrow.
