The first round of the ACC Tournament is over, and it’s on to quarterfinal Friday. The first game gives us top seeded Duke versus #9 seed Virginia, a 68-62 winner over Boston College yesterday. Virginia will still be shorthanded, missing Sylven Landesberg and Calvin Baker, but they proved that they could be competitive without those two players by winning yesterday. Sammy Zeglinski poured in a season high in points to help the Hoos squeak into the quarterfinals. Tony Bennett will need more than just Zeglinski to get past Duke, however. Not two weeks ago, Duke handled Virginia easily by 18 in Charlottesville with Landesberg and Baker playing. So, how will head coach Tony Bennett approach the Blue Devils this time? With only a single day to prepare, we’ll just have to see come game time at high noon on Friday.
