DURHAM, N.C. -- Members of the Duke football team spent early Friday evening packing and wrapping gift boxes for children at the Durham Parks and Recreation After-School Program. The Blue Devils wrapped packed gifts for boys and girls, filling shoeboxes with candy, toys and hygiene products.

The project happened on the eve of Duke's first official practice leading up to the 2012 Belk Bowl, where Duke will face Cincinnati at Bank of America Stadium on Dec. 27.
