When?

On July 11, 2020!

Why?

Because of the arrival of Notre Dame and Louisville into the ACC, Duke's success began to wane. The Blue Devils have not been in the league's top three in the regular season in four of the past seven seasons.according to an article by Mechelle Voepel on espn.com

That question has yet to have been answered!

Why?

Because the season hasn’t started yet! However, I have a feeling that the Duke Women’s Program is in good hands with Kara Lawson as their head coach!

Why?

Because she has seen the game on the hardwood from different perspectives!
