Duke and The Red Sox

Today im going to take a little bit of a break from talking about Cortland Baseball. I am on cloud 9 right now after experiencing the weekend i just had. First of all, the team won 3 out of 4 games, which is always an accomplishment to win more then you lost. Second of all, the final four was on T.V. this weekend and my all time favorite team, Duke, was in it. Duke was facing the red hot West Virginia Mountaineers and all odds were against them. Everyone who goes to school up here is a Syracuse fan, who of which, resides in the Big East Conference. People wanted West Virginia to win because it would bring the trophy to their conference. The thing is, the ACC is the best conference in America year in and year out and Duke is the best in the ACC. Duke plays a different style of basketball then West Virginia, who relys on athleticism. Duke plays a up tempo game aswell, but much more controlled. They run their plays thoroughly, play good man to man defense and are very with rebounding offensively and defensively. Duke smashed West Virginia by 20 points on Saturday and truly showed who the better team was. The Blue Devils play monday night against Butler University for a shot at the title, a championship, i feel, they will easily obtain. Sunday night, the Red Sox opened up their season against the Yankees and beat them 9-7. We are 1-0 on the year with the Yankees and hopefully well go undefeated.
