McCoy: Defense Saves The Night For Flyers

The University of Dayton basketball team was The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight on three-pointers in its UD Arena home opener Friday night against a plucky and poised Southern Illinois-Edwardsville team. The Flyers made only 6 of 23 three-pointers, but a total-game defense and point splurges late in the first half and late in the game saved a 63-47 victory.
