Duke cruises past NC State 79-56

Posted On: January 20, 2007 By: Cliff Comments: (zero)

Wow what a great game by the guys today.  Jon Scheyer lead the Blue Devils to a 79-56 win over the Wolfpack.  It was nice to see Duke win a conference road game in this fashion.  Five different players finished in double figures so the ball was getting spread around, and the shots were going down!

Sharpshooter Jon Scheyer once again lead the team in scoring as he had 20 points today.  Stud DeMarcus Nelson finished with 15 points and played a great overall game.  Greg Paulus also had another great game and finished with 13 points.  Josh McRoberts was right there with Paulus scoring 13 points and also had some great assists and played great defense.  We can’t leave out scrappy David McClure who tallied up 10 points and hustled like he always does.

The defense foced multiple tournovers that lead to easy baskets for the Blue Devil offense.  It was almost like watching an older Duke team out there today and it was a lot of fun!  Lets hope the confidence and momentum carries over into their next game!
