With its last two matches of the regular season, No. 10 Duke hopes to end on a high note before setting its sights on the ACC Tournament next week.
The Blue Devils will host conference foes Boston College Friday and N.C. State Sunday at Ambler Tennis Stadium.
Winless in conference play, the Eagles (5-13, 0-8 in the ACC) will look to pull off a big upset against Duke.
Defeating the Blue Devils will be a tall task for a Boston College squad that has been shut out 7-0 by six ACC teams and has lost 6-1 to two others.
Coming off a 7-0 shutout of the Eagles, the Wolfpack (13-8, 6-3) have fared well in conference play this season. Because five of their eight losses have come against top-20 teams, N.C. State appears more likely than Boston College to put Duke’s five-game winning streak on the line.
The Blue Devils aim to survive their final test as they prepare for the ACC Tournament, which begins next Thursday in Cary, N.C.
