The Ohio State basketball team was back in action Wednesday night with a challenging road contest at Duke in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge. Despite battling hard in the second half, OSU was unable to climb completely out of a ten-point halftime deficit, eventually falling to the Blue Devils 81-72.
Things started out well for Ohio State. The Buckeyes started quickly and had a modest 8-2 lead early on, but Duke did Duke things at home and went on a run midway through the first half to take control of the game and entered the locker room up 39-29 with defensive tenacity and great unselfishness on the offensive end.
