Duke Partners with DCI to Spike Out Cancer
9/29/2025 12:30:00 PM | Volleyball
DURHAM, N.C. – The Duke volleyball team continues its partnership with the Duke Cancer Institute's Teen and Young Adult Oncology Program this season with the Spike Out Cancer initiative.
The Blue Devils will dedicate their game against Notre Dame on Oct. 26 at 1 p.m., to help raise awareness and support teen's and young adult's battling cancer. With your support, every spike made by the Blue Devils will raise funds for the Duke Cancer Institute's TYAO Program. You can help us reach our goal of $5,000 by making a pledge or a one time donation here.Â
Last year, funds raised through the 2024 Spike Out Cancer initiative supported 812 free therapy sessions, six in-person meetups and six virtual meetups. For more information on the impact of the Spike Out Cancer initiative, visit the Duke Cancer Institute's website.
In February of 2019, former Duke volleyball player Jessi Bartholomew ('19) was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma shortly after finishing her senior season. She completed six months of chemotherapy as well as two weeks of radiation and is currently in remission. Throughout her treatment, the support from Duke Athletics and Duke Cancer Institute was overwhelming for Bartholomew, her family and friends. Spike Out Cancer is an awesome opportunity for you to show your support and raise awareness for other patients like Bartholomew who are going through tough times. For more information on Duke volleyball, follow the Blue Devils on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram by searching for "DukeVB". #GoDukeÂ
