#8 – Duke Blue Devils
2013 Finish – (26-29, 9-21 ACC)
Duke didn’t have a great season in-conference last year, but they return a lot of experience, including 6 of their top 7 hitters – most notably, leading hitter Andy Perez (.316, 4 HR, 25 RBI). They’ll have lots of depth at the plate, and more experience on the hill, and should be able to make a big jump from last season’s poor showing.
