CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. — Once up 14 points in the second half, No. 16 Duke struggled to the finish but got the big play it needed from Kyle Filipowski to finish off Boston College.
Filipowski, a 7-0 freshman, hit two free throws with 12.4 seconds left giving the Blue Devils a 65-64 ACC basketball win over the Eagles at Conte Forum.
The Blue Devils (12-4, 3-2 ACC), playing their first game since an 84-60 loss at N.C. State on Wednesday night, were without starting guard Jeremy Roach (toe injury). They made just one of their final 13 shots from the field of the game and finished with 15 turnovers.
