For the Seahawks, this is a big step-up in competition as they are immediately facing one of the most popular and storied teams in the history of the NCAA.
Finishing with a 25-7 record, UNCW also notched the first place in the Colonial Athletic and are on a four-game winning streak ahead of their battle against Duke.
They beat Towson 74-68 in February, before outlasting Charleston, Northeastern and Hofstra.
Despite this, they are easily regarded as the underdog in this battle, but they should take advantage of the momentum they've built to make it in the tournament.
Furthermore, with Chris Flemmings having a great season so far, Wilmington should give him the ball and hope for him to create. He is currently averaging 15.9 points per game and grabbing 6.1 rebounds per night.
On the other side, the Blue Devils are ranked 19 at the moment and finished with a 23-10 record, good enough to grab fifth in the Atlantic Coast.
They have not enjoyed a good stretch in the last five games, alternating wins and losses, with their last result a 84-79 loss to Notre Dame.
However, they are still favoured in this battle against Wilmington as they are dominating in nearly all major statistical categories.
Add the fact that Grayson Allen is having a superb year with 21.5 points per game and the rest of the starting line-up averaging double figures in scoring per night, then it would take a massive collapse for Duke to lose.
