Champions Classic was last night

inside Madison Square Garden, Midtown, Manhattan, New York City. Matt Norlander was there for the

doubleheader. Why don't we start with Duke 78, Kansas 66. The Blue Devils won by 12. Camer

18 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists. What assists what you see from john shires program last night

played well. I thought it was good for Duke to have the kind of all-around performance that they had against the Kansas team that was desperately short-handed.

I say desperately even with one player because Darren Peterson means that much.

We'll get to him in just a second.

But through the first five games, Duke has passed the test with flying colors with this new roster,
