McCoy: UD Flyers Get Chance To ‘Lei’ It Down

UD fans are the best. No matter what tournament or where the Flyers play, UD fans always dominate the stands.  “Maui's a really fun tournament, a beautiful island.  The guys are really ready to play and it's a fun atmosphere to be in,” - Zed Key.  Key is a graduate transfer from Ohio State, the Buckeyes played in Maui a couple of seasons ago.
