DTH defeats Duke's Chronicle 2-1 in Rivalry Challenge basketball series

Posted Feb 3, 2023
The UNC-Duke rivalry hasn’t been the same in three years. Since 2020, The Daily Tar Heel and The Chronicle, Duke’s student newspaper, have been unable to take to the court to compete in the Battle of the Blues: Newspaper Edition. Doubts rose over which newsroom had the purest-hooping sports desk. On Jan. 20, UNC shut them down definitively. (Daily Tar Heel)
