A revamped roster could set Dukes up for a bounce-back season

Could a revamped roster be what the Dukes needed to turn the tables in 2022?

Last season showed some glimpses of promise in an otherwise disappointing season. After winning the season opener against Rider, the team dropped 7 of their next 9 games. After winning the next three games, including their in-conference opener against the University of Massachusetts, the team fell into another slump, and ended the season on a 17 game losing streak, tying the school record with the 1998-99 roster.

While finishing with a record of 6-24 (1-16) is far to write home about, the roster was relatively young in comparison to their competition, and showed potential for improvement throughout various points of the season.
