DURHAM, N.C. – After going 4-0 in its opening weekend at the Tiger Classic, the Duke softball team is now featured in all four national polls after week one of the 2021 campaign.
Head coach Marissa Young's squad jolted seven spots in the USA Today/NFCA Division I Top 25 Coaches Poll, coming in at No. 18. Duke appears in the ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate Top 25 Poll for the first time this season, entering at No. 19. The Blue Devils also checked in at No. 25 in the D1Softball and Softball America polls.
Duke started its weekend with a 6-2 win over Central Arkansas before defeating No. 5 LSU, 8-4, on Friday night at Tiger Park. The victory over the Tigers comes as Duke's second win over a ranked opponent in program history. The Blue Devils carried momentum into Saturday with a 9-1 feat over McNeese and outlasted Central Arkansas with a 7-5 win. Sunday's contest versus Kansas was canceled due to inclement weather.
The Blue Devils' 4-0 start is the best in school history, besting Duke's 3-1 start during the 2020 season.
Duke begins conference action at home this weekend, hosting an ACC Pod Weekend at the Duke Softball Stadium. The Blue Devils are set to play two three-games series against Pitt and Notre Dame, Feb. 18-21.
