Hokies falter against Duke 86-75

BLACKSBURG – Taylor Emery lit up the scoreboard on Carilion Clinic Court Thursday night to the tune of 30 points, but it wasn’t enough to propel the Hokies to victory, as they eventually fell 86-75 to No. 15 Duke.

Tech’s record now stands at 13-6, 2-4 in the ACC.

“Obviously we’re disappointed, we’re not into moral victories,” head coach Kenny Brooks said. “You know, we feel we can move past that. I thought we played well in spurts tonight but against a team like Duke you have to do more than spurts.
