In a Sunday afternoon energized by Senior Day feelings and a raucous crowd of 3,218 on the sidelines, the Tigers (19-9, 10-6 ACC) narrowly routed No. 9 Duke, 53-51. The win broke the Blue Devils’ undefeated streak in ACC play and presented head coach Shawn Poppie with a historic victory of his career.
The afternoon’s hero was Hannah Kohn, who buried the Blue Devils by hitting a go-ahead three-pointer with just nine seconds left to go. It was a shot that marked a grittier comeback after Clemson trailed by as many as 14 points in the opening half.
