After being swept at home by Clemson last weekend, Duke will look to rebound in a midweek nonconference matchup with UNC Greensboro at 6 p.m. at Jack Coombs Field.
The Blue Devils (13-20) have lost all four of their games against Southern Conference opponents this season, and split a pair of matchups with the Spartans (17-13) in 2011.
Nick Piscotty has started the last two midweek games for Duke, giving up two earned runs in a combined 9.2 innings.
UNC Greensboro has won four of its five April matchups, scoring 31 runs during the stretch. The Spartan offense leads the nation in sacrifice bunts, with 55 so far this season, but has also shown off some power with 33 home runs.
The Blue Devils have been led at the plate by senior centerfielder Will Piwnica-Worms, who leads the team with three triples and the same number of home runs.
Duke will resume ACC competition over the weekend, when it hits the road to take on Maryland in a three-game series.
