Turns out being the Blue Devil requires studying too! 😈

The horns may be iconic, but it's the people behind them who make the tradition special. Happy National Mascot Day!

Durham, meet the Blaze. Blaze, meet Durham. 🥎

The Carolina Blaze, one of the four original teams in the Athletes Unlimited Softball League - AUSL, are calling Smith Family Stadium home. With games all summer, there are plenty of chances to catch the action in person and watch former Blue Devils Jala Wright and Ana Gold compete right where their Duke Softball careers took place.
