For the second year in a row and the second time in school history, the Duke Blue Devils are headed to the Super Regional of the NCAA Tournament.
Last year Duke did it the hard way by losing its first game in the Regional, but this year the Blue Devils dominated the Morgantown Regional, sweeping the regional and defeating Texas A&M for the second time, this time by a 4-1 margin.
Once again, Duke was led by its outstanding pitching.
Starter Bill Chillari tossed four and two-thirds innings, allowing just one run on six hits and three strikeouts, while true freshman Jack Carey picked up his first postseason victory in relief after two and one-third shutout innings, walking one, allowing one hit, and striking out two.
