No. 7 Duke Comes Up Short in Double-OT

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- recorded a career-high 25 points, but Wake Forest was able to outlast seventh-ranked Duke 113-101 in double overtime on Tuesday night

Brandon Childress shook off an difficult shooting start and hit a tying 3-pointer late in regulation to send the game to overtime. Childress missed his first 10 shots before hitting the tying 3 with 15.5 seconds left in regulation. And once the game went into a second extra period, Childress buried another on the first possession to put the Demon Deacons (12-15, 5-12 Atlantic Coast Conference) ahead to stay, sending them to their first win against the Blue Devils in nearly six years.
