'The Three Basketeers,' Javon Bennett, Jordan Derkack and Keonte Jones all did their individual things, the things they do the best, to lead the University of Dayton Flyers to a 68-63 win over St. Bonaventure in the Atlantic 10 Conference tournament quarterfinals, moving them into Saturday's semifinals against Saint Louis.

Although the University of Dayton basketball team bested VCU in nearly every statistical category Friday night in UD Arena, the statistics lie as the Rams stopped the Flyers' six-game winning streak, 68-62.

The University of Dayton secured a double bye in the Atlantic 10 tournament Tuesday with a hard to secure 65-60 victory at Richmond, lifting the Flyers overall record to 21-9 and their A-10 record to 12-5, good for third place with one game remaining, Friday night in UD Arena against VCU.

After taking a big first-half lead over George Washington, the University of Dayton Flyers needed two late free throws by Amaël L'Etang and a blocked shot by Keonte Jones in the dying seconds to secure their fifth straight win, 69-67, over the Revolutionaries.

Dayton is healthy and getting contributions from everyone. And their most recent win after a bad stretch to end January makes them happy.
