Hoos give up six runs in the ninth, fall to Duke 9-7

Virginia looks to regroup and win tomorrow's series finale after a stunning collapse in the ninth inning against Duke.

If the Virginia Cavaliers miss the NCAA Tournament this year, they will likely look back on the ninth inning of this afternoon's game against the Duke Blue Devils and wonder how they let one get away. Leading Duke by a score of 7-3 entering the top of the ninth inning, the Hoos just couldn't get three outs as they saw the Blue Devils come up with six runs on six hits and one hit by pitch to take a 9-7 lead which would ultimately be the final score.
