Kyle Filipowski's 13 points and 10 rebounds gave the freshman forward his fifth double-double as No. 17 Duke blew past visiting Boston College 75-59 in the Atlantic Coast Conference opener for both teams Saturday at Durham, N.C.

Mark Mitchell posted 13 of his 15 points in the second half for the Blue Devils (8-2, 1-0 ACC), who remained undefeated in six home games. Jacob Grandison had 10 points off the bench.

The outcome gave first-year Duke coach Jon Scheyer a victory in his first official game as head coach in conference play.

Duke shot 52.8 percent from the field.

CJ Penha had a strong second half to finish with 16 points for Boston College, which has lost two games in a row for the first time this season. Jaeden Zackery added 14 points and Devin McGlockton posted 10 points.

The Eagles were hurt by shooting 37.5 percent from the field, combined with Duke's stretches of offensive efficiency.
