The Blue Devils open the day at 1 p.m., against the host Mountaineers, before taking on Kent State at 3 p.m., and ending the day with Cleveland State at 5 p.m. The month concludes with the 27th annual Keystone Classic in Philadelphia, Pa., on Nov. 19.
December brings three more road duals in their home state as the Blue Devils head to Davidson, N.C., to face the Wildcats on Dec. 8, before closing the month in Charlotte, N.C., on Dec. 19 against Queens University and The Citadel.
Ringing in the New Year in Chattanooga, Tenn., Duke makes its 20th appearance at the Southern Scuffle on Jan. 1-2, before returning home the following week (Jan. 8) for the home-opener against Appalachian State at 5 p.m.
