    Congratulations to Coach P., who has been named ACC Coach Of The Year. It hasn't always been easy for her at Duke, where she found that following Gail Goestenkors was not always a bed of roses. This was made more difficult by the inability of some Duke fans to let go of the Goestenkors era. Some, who really should have known better, actively undermined her at the beginning of her tenure even while they pretended to support her and attempted to...

    For some reason, some of the Maryland kids decided it would be cool to bump Duke players after the national anthem.

    COLLEGE PARK, Md. – Playing for the third time in seven days, No. 6 Duke could have really used a breather against struggling, rebuilding Maryland. Instead, the weary Blue Devils were forced to expend every bit of their remaining energy to squeeze out a 58-57 victory Sunday night. Jasmine Thomas scored 20 points and Bridgette Mitchell made the go-ahead basket with 1:29 left for Duke, the lone remaining unbeaten team in Atlantic Coast Conference...

    OKLAHOMA CITY — The third-seeded Blue Devils' defense was dominant at times in the first half, but the No. 2 Aggies forged a lead in the period's last five minutes and leads at half 29-25. Chante Black and Abby Waner have five rebounds each, as Duke is dominating the glass,  23-15. When Duke doesn't rebound, it doesn't win. We'll see if the corollary proves true. Duke's defense has been stifling tonight, forcing bad Texas A&M shots to beat t...

    OKLAHOMA CITY — Here are some initial thoughts from press row as Duke's 7 p.m. Sweet 16 tip against Texas A&M approaches: Duke is wearing its black jerseys for the third time this year. The other occasions? Losses to North Carolina in Chapel Hill and in the ACC Tournament. The Aggies' band and D.U.M.B. are going back and forth right now as the crowd begins to file in. The early verdict? Texas A&M, in a landslide. Duke fans should hope the actu...
