Duke faces East Carolina for just the third time in program history as the Pirates' first year of competition was in 2018. Duke leads the all-time series 2-0, including a 1-0 mark in games played in Durham.
East Carolina has started the 2020 season strong, holding a 5-2 record as it comes to Durham. The Pirates have already matched their program record for wins in a season, less than halfway through their season. ECU is led by Nicole LeGar and Megan Tryniski who have 15 goals each. LeGar and Tryniski have also been playmakers, tallying nine and seven assists, respectively.
Duke holds a 20-5 record versus AAC opponents in 2020. Other than ECU, the last American Athletic Conference opponent the Blue Devils faced was Florida in 2011.
There will be multiple familiar faces on the field on Tuesday, starting with the head coaching battle. East Carolina head coach Amanda Moore was an assistant coach at Duke under Kerstin Kimel before making the trek to Greenville, N.C., to start the Pirates program. In addition, two of the Pirates starters have strong ties to Durham. Kimel's daughter, Caroline, and Duke men's lacrosse assistant coach Ron Caputo's daughter, Sam, have both started every game for the Pirates this season.
Noting Duke:
Duke in the Polls:
Coming off a win over No. 12 Virginia, the Blue Devils jumped up a few spots in each of the national polls. Duke hopped up to 18th in the Intercollegiate Women's Lacrosse Coaches Association Poll and to 16th in the Inside Lacrosse Media Poll. In addition, the Blue Devils returned to the U.S. Lacrosse Magazine poll, checking in at No. 19.
Scoring as a Unit:
A third through the season, Duke is the only team in the ACC that has seven student-athletes with double-digit goals. In addition, 16 different Blue Devils have scored this season. Cronin and Catriona Barry lead all scorers with 18 each, Catherine Cordrey (16), Maddie Jenner (14), Caroline DeBellis (13), Abby Landry (12) and Veronica Hineman (11) all also hold double-digit marks.
Henriquez Gets the Nod:
After splitting time through the first four games of the season, junior Chase Henriquez has gotten four consecutive starts in the cage for the Blue Devils.
The Norwell, Mass., native has made the most of her opportunity, putting together a 3-1 record in her starts and recording double-digit saves in three consecutive games for the first time in her career. Henriquez recorded a season-high 13 saves (nearing her career-high 14 versus Virginia Tech in 2018) in a 16-10 win over No. 12 Virginia.
Causing Problems:
Through its first eight games of the 2020 campaign, Duke has created 99 turnovers. Its 12.38 caused turnovers per game lead the ACC and rank fifth nationally.
Callie Humphrey leads the Duke squad with 14 caused turnovers while Katie Cosgrove's 12 rank second. Humphrey ranks second in the ACC with 1.61 caused turnovers per game. The Blue Devils have 10 student athletes with five or more caused turnovers.
Shooting Our Shot:
The Blue Devils are one of the most efficient teams in the country in the attacking third. Duke is averaging 17.88 goals per game in 2020, ranking fifth nationally and second in the ACC.
Duke ranks sixth and eighth in the country in shots per game (35.75) and shots on goal per game (28.00), respectively. The Blue Devils lead the conference in both categories. The Blue Devils have also increased efficiency on the 8-meter mark, being a perfect 7-for-7 in free position shots in conference play this season.
