Blue Devils Reach 7K Mark in Big Sets for Little Hearts Program
4/16/2025 9:00:00 AM | Women's Tennis
DURHAM, N.C. – As the Duke men's and women's tennis teams prepare to open the postseason, the Blue Devils have now raised $7,476.60 for the Big Sets for Little Hearts program, which benefits the Duke Children's Hospital Pediatric and Congenital Heart Center.
Both teams will be playing this week in the ACC Championship, which will be held at the Cary Tennis Park in Cary. All fans are encouraged to pledge to be involved in the program to help raise money for Duke Children's.
Big Sets for Little Hearts pledges are made based on the number of sets won by the men's and women's tennis programs. Last year, both tennis teams combined for 647 sets won. In the fall, Duke raised $1,599.60 and are looking to continue to increase that amount more in the postseason.
If you are interested in supporting Blue Devil tennis' partnership with Duke Children's, you can pledge for each set won during the season or make a one-time donation. Pledges start at $0.10, $0.50, $1.00 and $2.50. Based on last year's results, the smallest pledged donation would be equal to $64.70.
The Duke Children's Pediatric and Congenital Heart Center is the No. 2 ranked pediatric cardiology and heart surgery program in the United States for newborns and children with congenital and acquired heart disease. The Duke Pediatric and Congenital Heart Center strives to improve their patients' outcomes and the quality of their lives.
To be able to accomplish this, the center achieves some of the highest survival rates in the U.S. in very sick patients who require advanced, complex care. The Heart Center performed more than 450 heart operations in 2023, including significantly more complicated procedures than many other centers nationally. The Duke Pediatric and Congenital Heart Center was the first to successfully perform several new approaches to pediatric heart transplant surgery, including donation after cardiac death transplantation, partial heart transplantation, combination heart and thymus transplantation. They pioneered new surgical techniques that lower risk and ensure heart surgery is better tolerated by the tiniest babies.
The men's team collected a 16-7 overall and 9-4 ACC ledger, while earning the seventh seed in the upcoming ACC Championship. The Blue Devils will play Thursday, April 17 at 6 p.m., against either No. 10 seeded Miami or No. 15 seed Notre Dame.
The women's team earned the ACC regular season title with a 12-0 ACC ledger, while also collecting a 20-2 overall record in the regular season. It marked the 22nd ACC regular season title in program history. Duke received the No. 1 seed and will open play in the quarterfinals on Friday, April 18 at 10 a.m., in Cary.
