Blue Devils will begin season Nov. 6 against Dartmouth

The second season under Jon Scheyer as coach of Duke will begin Nov. 6 against Dartmouth.

The program announced its full non-conference slate on Tuesday afternoon, with preseason dates to note and games against mid-major programs filling in what was already known about the schedule.

Duke’s previously announced games have been the four against power conference teams — Arizona, Michigan State, Arkansas and Baylor — and the three games as part of the Blue Devil Challenge, Duke’s new multi-team event.

The Blue Devil Challenge will see Duke play Bucknell, La Salle and Southern Indiana, all at Cameron Indoor Stadium.

The Blue Devils were 9-2 in non-conference games last season, dropping November games to Kansas and Purdue, with notable wins coming against Xavier, Ohio State and Iowa.
