As Duke basketball holds, fans applaud the top veteran star for an insane second half.
Two seeds Duke women’s basketball advanced to the program’s second consecutive Sweet Sixteen after defeating an upset-hungry 10-seed Oregon Ducks team 59-53 in the Round of 32. In front of the Blue Devil supporters, the Blue Devils won at Cameron Indoor Stadium.
Toby Fournier, Duke’s top scorer, “wasn’t feeling well” and wasn’t allowed to play by team physicians, thus the squad was without him.
