Duke holds on to win over Virginia Tech

(Jon Scheyer drives against VT in photo)
Saturday's game was another nail biter for us Duke fans. When the Virginia Tech Hokies tied the game in the second half, it was fun to watch the Dukies hold them off and win. As the sportscaster would say many times during this game, the Blue Devils had to do the hokie-pokie a few times to win this one. Another interesting stat was that Gerald Henderson scored 17 of his 21 points in the first half, and Kyle Singler started the second half with 2 points and ended with 21 points.

The last few weeks of the season have been full of tough games for the Dukies. This week the Blue Devils face two more tough teams to end the regular season with games against Florida State (Tues) and North Carolina (Sun.) I believe they can win both games if they play well, so expect two more exciting ball games.
