After a shocking upset loss at Richmond last Saturday, the question of the day was, 'Will the Dayton Flyers bounce back Tuesday against George Washington and will DaRon Holmes II shake off a shaky performance?' And the answer was yes and yes as UD buried George Washington, 83-61, and Holmes dominated with a double-double, 25 points and 12 rebounds.
The University of Dayton Flyers carted a 13-game winning streak, a 6-0 Atlantic 10 record and a No. 16 AP ranking into the University of Richmond's Robins Center Saturday were not impressed with the Flyers and administered a 69-64 upset, extending their winning streak to 10 straight and grabbing first place away from the Flyers.
The University of Dayton basketball team had lost seven of its last 10 games to LaSalle in Tom Gola Arena, good teams losing to bad teams, so it was with trepidation that the Flyers trudged into Gola Arena Tuesday night. But this time they took care of a business, a 66-54 win that was their 13th straight and lifted their record to 16-2, 6-0 in the Atlantic 10, good for first place.
