Sophomore Jonathan Millner slams an opponent during App State's 45-0 win over Duke on Jan. 23.
App State shut out Duke on Thursday night to improve to a 6-2 record on the season. Before the match began, head coach JohnMark Bentley received a plaque commemorating his 100th career win that he earned against Presbyterian on Jan. 12. His team proceeded to dominate, winning every match against the Blue Devils. The 45-0 victory also marked the Mountaineers’ fourth win in their last five meetings against in-state opponents.
“It’s good; it’s an in-state rival, and there is a lot of name recognition that goes with ACC schools in North Carolina,” Bentley said.
