February 19, 20206 yr The Flyers -- now 13-0 in the Atlantic 10 and winners of 15 straight -- pass the first of their late-season tests with a win at VCU in which the Flyers led from the time it was 8-7 and never let the game get level again. The aggressive VCU defense held the Flyers to one of their lowest shooting percentages of the season: 45%. That's well below the average of over 50%. Obi Toppin had 12 points and 5 rebounds. Jalen Crutcher added 18 points that included going 8-8 from the free throw line in the second half to seal it away. Only five games remaining before the A-10 tournament: Duquesne at George Mason Davidson at Rhode Island (circle that one, folks) George Washington

Makes an old guy remember Coach Blackburn and Coach Donoher.
February 29, 20206 yr Toppin is an All American, Grant a good coach, and it's great to see a program like Dayton having a great year! Makes an old guy remember Coach Blackburn and Coach Donoher. 9068-- Here are some Dayton remembrances from another older guy: Don May; NCAA final vs. UCLA in mid-sixties, I believe; Henry Finkel; Gottshalk twins (spelling is way off, I'm sure)----when they were in high school I think they played a game at Trinity (and won); UK beating Indiana in the NCAAs at a virtually brand new gym in Dayton.....I think this was around 1970. I apologize if my memory is faulty.
