Wake Forest Was A Mild Breeze Away From Upsetting Duke
Wake Forest, a lowly 4-12 ACC squad that Kenpom said had a 99.6 percent chance of losing tonight, came achingly close to beating Duke on “Senior” night at Cameron.

Every Cup winner since 2010 has made a deadline (or deadlineish) trade. The Lightning stood pat.
