What's Duke Blue and White and wearing NCAA jerseys? Who else but the Blue Devils? The Blue Devils represent Duke University's athletic squad and is made up of 26 varsity teams. The squad received their name from the nickname given to the Alpine light infantry battalion, who were called 'les Diables Bleus' during WWI. The name was earned after student publication editors and campus leaders decided getting nominations for nicknames was not enough. The newspaper editor-in-chief and managing editor began calling the teams the Blue Devils, which later became their official nickname and mascot. The Blue Devils have since blazed impressive athletic achievements, winning 119 ACC championships and holding the record for the longest streaks of consecutive wins in several sports, including women's golf, tennis and basketball and men's basketball. They have also consistently finished in the NACDA Director's Cup Top 30 every year for the last 10 years.
The Duke University Blue Devils call Durham, North Carolina home. It is one of NC's largest cities and easily one of its liveliest with its thriving environment for culture and sports. Durham is home to a variety of festivals, expositions and events such as the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival and the American Dance Festival. However, close to the heart of many residents of Durham is collegiate athletics. The men's basketball team of Duke University, for example, enjoys such a strong fanbase that it successfully sold out all their home games in 2009. The strong and supportive legions of fans that come to every game are just one of the main reasons why Duke Blue Devils jerseys are such bestsellers.
