Cam Mulé only needed one touch to make all the difference for Duke.
The Blue Devils’ senior, a Team 91 2017 and Half Hollow Hills West alum, made a nifty off-ball cut and slammed home a pass from teammate Michael Sowers to give Duke a 13-12 win over Notre Dame in a crucial ACC tilt last week.
’20 Crush Brennan O’Neill (St. Anthony’s) continued his outstanding freshman campaign with two goals and an assist to go with four ground balls. ’19 Orange Tyler Carpenter (Salisbury, Conn.) picked up three ground balls from his LSM spot, ’19 Orange Kenny Brower (Massapequa) dislodged a turnover and ’18 Extreme Owen Caputo (Middle Creek, N.C.) tallied twice for Duke.
