Dayton Basketball: Flyers Move Into Tie for Fourth Place with Victory Against Davidson

Dayton Flyers secured a 70-59 win over Davidson Wildcats with a 39-18 rebounding advantage and 21 of 24 free throws, marking their first game after a nine-day break.

  • Dayton beat Davidson 70-59 at home after a nine-day layoff in its first game since a 99-73 loss at Virginia Commonwealth on Feb. 6.
  • Dayton dominated the boards, producing a 39-18 rebounding advantage, including a 14-5 edge on offensive rebounds, and outscored Davidson 16-8 in second-chance points.
  • A late 7-0 run decided the game, featuring Javon Bennett's three, Jaiun Simon's tipped-in putback, and Deshayne Montgomery's steal-and-dunk; Montgomery led Dayton with 13 points and Bryce Heard scored all 10 after intermission.
  • The Dayton Flyers moved into a tie for fourth in the Atlantic 10 and extended their series streak to 11 games, heading to George Mason Wednesday.
