Duke men's lacrosse 2024 season review

(06/26/24 1:20am)

In equal parts due to Duke’s illustrious history with the sport, the coaching pedigree of head coach John Danowski and the small-but-top-heavy nature of college lacrosse, anything short of Championship Weekend is considered a failure in Durham. Even a national title game appearance in 2023 — and I share this opinion — was a bit disappointing given the manner of the loss. Unfortunately for the Blue Devils, their 2024 season ended two games earlier than that, with three more losses and four fewer ACC wins.

Duke track and field 2024 season review

(06/24/24 2:27pm)

Duke track and field’s 2024 outdoor season was a relatively successful one. For the third time in the last four seasons, the women’s team notched a first-place finish at the ACC Championships in Raleigh. Meanwhile, the men’s squad earned a seventh-place conference finish, two spots higher than in the 2023 season. In total, the Blue Devils fielded eight runners at the NCAA championships in Eugene, Ore., earning several All-America honors in the process.

Unmasking indoctrination: The Zionist agenda behind Duke's “Antisemitism 101 Training”

(06/26/24 12:00pm)

When I signed up for Jewish Life at Duke’s "Antisemitism 101 Training," I hoped for an impartial, educational approach to understanding and combating antisemitism on campus. However, from attending the training along with two fellow Duke staff members, I found that it instead indoctrinates participants into the political project of Zionism.


Duke baseball 2024 season review

(06/22/24 8:03pm)

At various points of this season, Duke’s 2024 campaign could be described as a success, failure and just about everywhere in between. The Blue Devils started off hot, taking down then-No. 1 Wake Forest in their first ACC road series. However, they dropped their next two weekend series against Clemson and N.C. State, and rode through the middle of the season alternating between impressive showings and disappointments. 


Duke men's golf 2024 season review

(06/21/24 10:05pm)

The late sunset of Carlsbad, Calif., marked the conclusion of a solid spring season for Duke men’s golf. Falling just short of team qualification to the NCAA Championship, it is easy to think this season was a disappointment compared to the year prior. However, Duke won its home tournament, the Rod Myers Invitational, and are no longer near the bottom of the ACC. Also, the Blue Devils continued by qualifying for their ninth straight NCAA Regional and 32nd postseason appearance in program history. Jamie Green and Duke have qualified in 14 out of 15 seasons in his tenure as head coach. It was a very solid season, but the Blue Devils did not get results when they mattered most.
