Duke bounced back from a last-second defeat at Clemson with a solid 80-52 win that clinched at least a share of the regular-season ACC championship.

The Seminoles kept it close for the first half, down just 33-29 at the break. Duke dominated the third quarter, 22-11, and the fourth quarter as well, 25-12.

Toby Fournier continues her excellent play. She had 22 here, along with 13 rebounds, 5 blocks and 3 assists.

Ashlon Jackson added 15 while Delaney Thomas and Riley Nelson had 13 each.

With the win, Duke moves to 21-7 and 16-1 in the ACC. The Blue Devils can claim sole and permanent possession of first place on Sunday with a win over the visiting Tar Heels.

Louisville is just behind Duke at 15-2, and the Cardinsals close out with Notre Dame at home on Sunday.

However, since Duke beat Louisville, the Blue Devils will get the #1 seed for the ACC Tournament regardless of what happens in Sunday’s games.
