Duke beat Dartmouth, 92-54, on Monday night at Cameron Indoor Stadium. Preseason AP All-American Kyle Filipowski scored 25 points and freshman Caleb Foster added 15 points for the Blue Devils.
North Carolina beat Radford 86-70 on Monday night at the Dean Smith Center. Armando Bacot had 25 points and 13 rebounds. Bergin wonders which North Carolina play will serve as Robin to Bacot's Batman.
