The last time the Virginia Cavaliers beat the Duke Blue Devils in Durham, not a single current Cavalier was alive; Nigel Johnson would be born six days later.
But on Saturday afternoon, UVA exorcised 23 years of demons. Four Hoos scored in double figures en route to a 65-63 victory over the fourth-ranked Blue Devils.
Kyle Guy led Virginia with 17 points, with Devon Hall adding 14, Ty Jerome chipping in 13, and 12 more coming from DeAndre Hunter. Marvin Bagley III scored 30 to lead all scorers; Duke’s only other player with more than ten was Wendell Carter, Jr.
