Duke beat Carolina 3,688 to 3,444

It was one for the record books this weekend, as Duke topped Carolina 3,688 to 3,444.

After more than 57 hours of play, the Duke-Carolina Student Basketball Marathon set the record for the longest basketball game, pending certification from Guinness World Records.

Although final margin of victory of 244 points seems insurmountable, it is roughly equivalent to a five-point spread in a game in which each team scores in the 80s.
