Lewis, Snyderwine lead Duke past Virginia 2′-17

(By HANK KURZ Jr., AP Sports Writer) Thaddeus Lewis hit Conner Vernon on a 42-yard touchdown pass with 3:45 remaining and Duke rallied to beat Virginia 28-17 on Saturday.

Will Snyderwine made five field goals for the Blue Devils (5-3, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference), who added a touchdown when Charlie Hatcher recovered a fumble by Jameel Sewell with 3:22 left to clinch it. The victory is Duke's third in a row - all in ACC play - the first time since 1989.

Mike Jenkins sets INT sights high

Cornerback Mike Jenkins leads the Cowboys with two interceptions. He had a third taken away by a penalty on another player.

The start has persuaded him to change his goal. Jenkins came into the season hoping to reach four interceptions, but has now revised that number.

"Six,'' Jenkins said. "At the pace I'm going right now, I may reach six or more.''

Jenkins knows he's setting the bar high. How high? If he finishes the season with six interceptions, it will tie him with Anhony Henry for the most interceptions by a Cowboy in a single season over the last 14 years.
