Lummie Young And Mataeo Durant Meet The Press

Duke safety Lummie Young IV and running back Mataeo Durant met with the media Tuesday to discuss Duke’s 30-23 win over Northwestern last Saturday and this Saturday’s game against Kansas.

Young and Durant were key components in Duke’s win and they discussed several of those big plays.

Young was named ACC Defensive Back of the Week after notching seven tackles and forcing two turnovers against Northwestern. Duke jumped to a 14-0 lead before Northwestern marched to the Duke 2-yard line, poised to get back into the game.

Young changed that. On third and goal, he sacked Hunter Johnson on a blitz and forced a fumble, which was recovered by Duke’s Ben Frye.
