By Jack Murphy
Virginia defeated Duke due to an incredible defensive performance from Jay Huff, as he recorded 10 blocks including one in the final seconds to clinch the game for the Cavaliers. Duke's late struggles continued as they lost a nail-biting contest due to Huff's miraculous block.
Of course it ends up working out for Duke when Virginia blows the front end and Duke does what they should’ve done the possession before, quick attack, generate a layup, but GREAT block to save the game pic.twitter.com/wIcVIghFZE

Duke seemed to have the game won as they had a player wide open under the hoop down by only one with less than ten seconds left. However, as they went to put up the layup they were rejected by Huff, and were served their third loss in a four game span.
Duke has two games left on the regular season slate against NC State and UNC to try to improve their resume before heading into the ACC Tournament.
