DURHAM, N.C. – Duke is set for its annual Fall World Series Friday-Sunday, November 16-18 at Jack Coombs Field. The three-game series starts at 3 p.m., Friday, November 16, continues at 11 a.m., and concludes at 2 p.m., Sunday, November 18. All three games are open to the public and admission is free.
Duke heads into the final weekend of its 2018 fall slate and transitions into its offseason workout program final the Fall World Series conclusion.
This past season, Duke enjoyed one of the best seasons in school history after a remarkable run culminating in the program’s first NCAA Super Regional appearance. After seven Blue Devils began their professional baseball careers and four graduated this past spring, Duke returns two starting position players in outfielder Kennie Taylor and Freshman All-American first baseman Joey Loperfido, while U.S. Collegiate National Team member Graeme Stinson and 2018 Cape Cod League Pitcher of the Year Adam Laskey and freshman standout Bryce Jarvis look to bolster the pitching corps.
Duke kicks off the 2019 campaign with a home series against Lehigh February 15-17 at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park.
