Twitter clearly preferred a contest against idle Lehigh, but with Duke looming on the horizon, that pairing was a pipe dream. The Orange beat the Crusaders 15-6; 15 goals was fitting on a day honoring the late Rob Kavovit, who wore No. 15 for Cuse in the mid ’90s.

Righty Chase Scanlan provided seven markers for Otto and Canadian freshman Owen Hiltz handed out five assists. The rookie now has 23 points after five contests. John Zulberti, ‘Zman’ holds the freshman record for assists (41) and points (76). Socks up baby. Duke is up next on Thursday at 7 p.m. on the ACC Network. This will be a true ACC litmus test.
