Each year, the marathon culminates with a Duke vs. Carolina co-ed basketball game. The inaugural Basketball Marathon in 2006 broke the Guinness World Record for longest continuous basketball game at 57 hours and 25 minutes. Duke's team won that game 3699-3444. The Marathon was able to raise over $60,000 to benefit children with life-threatening illnesses. In 2007, the second annual Duke-Carolina Student Basketball Marathon lasted 36 hours and was hosted in historic Carmichael Gym. The game began Friday, March 30th, 9:00pm and ended Sunday, April 1st at 9:00am. Carolina won the second of the two historic games. Duke-Carolina Student Basketball Marathon Homepage |
