The University of Dayton Flyers fell behind, 33-8, in the first half Wednesday night in Philadelphia at LaSalle, but chipped away and closed the gap to one point late in the game, but Javon Bennett's last-second three-point attempt to tie the game clanked off the rim and the Flyers suffered a stunning defeat, 67-64.
With the loss of Jordan Derkack from Tuesday's game at Duquesne, Dayton's Flyers were missing three of their top six players in Derkack, Amaël L'Etang and Malcolm Thomas, but coach Anthony Grant floated his eight remaining scholarships players in and out of the game and walked away with a 71-65 victory.
