The Blue Devils were led by freshman Jadyn Donovan (20 points, nine rebounds) and junior Reigan Richardson (17 points). Graduate student Camilla Emsbo added 15 points and five boards off the bench, Kennedy Brown added 12 points, seven rebounds and six assists while rookie Oluchi Okananwa chipped in a double-double of 10 points and 10 rebounds.
HOW IT HAPPENED:
- Duke jumped out to an early 9-0 lead. Donovan dropped in the game's first four points, scoring on a drop step off a nice feed from Brown before cutting down the lane for a finger roll via another feed from Brown.
- Richardson cashed in a three from the left wing and Ashlon Jackson followed with a driving layup to put the Blue Devils up by nine and force a Wingate timeout.
- The Bulldogs broke their scoring drought at the 6:26 mark on free throws from Emily Hege. Duke closed the quarter on a 21-5 run and held a 30-7 lead after one.
- Duke kept the pressure on in the second period, outscoring Wingate, 23-8, over the 10-minute period – a dozen of those coming from Richardson via a 5-of-5 clip from the field. At the break, the home team held a 55-15 lead.
- The Blue Devils kept their foot on the gas in the third as they netted 25 of the period's 33 points. Seven different Duke players scored during the frame led by Brown (6) and freshman Delaney Thomas (5).
