DURHAM, N.C. – For the second straight year, Duke redshirt freshman Lyneé Belton has seen her season come to an end early as the 6-3 forward had surgery Thursday, Feb. 18. Belton had her left meniscus debridement performed by team physician Dr. Alison Toth and will have a four to six week recovery.
In the Florida State contest on Feb. 11, Belton suffered the injury. She had competed in 20 games this season, while starting four. Belton was averaging 2.7 points and 3.0 rebounds. A native of Clinton, Md., Belton also suffered a torn ACL of her left knee Dec. 17, 2014 and missed the rest of the 2014-15 campaign.
Belton joins freshman Haley Gorecki, who has missed the last 13 games of the season with a hip injury, on the sidelines for the remaining of the year. Duke sophomore Azurá Stevens has missed the last five contests with a left foot injury, but head coach Joanne P. McCallie is hoping to have her back soon.
Duke will host Georgia Tech Sunday, Feb. 21 at 2 p.m., in what will be senior day for Mercedes Riggs and Amber Henson. The contest will be aired live on Blue Devil Network Plus.
