DURHAM- No. 12 Duke Softball hosts Notre Dame in the conference-opening matchup on Friday at Duke Softball Stadium. First pitch is slated for 4 p.m. due to projected inclement weather Friday evening.
The Blue Devils (15-3) have won 12 consecutive games, including seven-straight shutout wins after Wednesday's doubleheader sweep of North Carolina Central. Duke defeated the Eagles in a five-inning contest, 12-0, during the opener before recording an 8-0 five-inning shutout during the nightcap.
Notre Dame enters the weekend with a 10-4 record after five-straight wins in THE Spring Games Tournament in Madeira Beach, Fla.
