Duke Women Power Past Green Bay, 76-60
You’ll recall that last season for Duke Women’s Basketball was a bit of a roller coaster early. Duke had a rocky start, then went on a brilliant winning streak, before bowing out to UCLA in the Elite Eight.
That team really didn’t have much height but compensated with tremendous defense. We’ve seen teams force 30 turnovers before, but in multiple games?
It was amazing.
This year, Duke is taller, and in Duke’s opening 76-60 win over Green Bay, the Blue Devils starters were Delaney Thomas (6-3), Emilee Skinner (6-0), Aaliyah Crump (6-1), Jadyn Donovan (6-0) and Riley Nelson (6-2). There are other tall players on the bench, as well, including Arianna Roberson and Taylor Sofilkanich, both 6-4.
