How about them Dayton Flyers?

They did us proud last night with a tough win over SEC opponent Ole Miss. Love this quote from the UD press notes for the NIT championship game:


http://www.daytonflyers.com/mens/basketball/news/index.html?article_id=6563

"With UD’s 68-63 win over Ole Miss on March 30 in the NIT Semifinals, Dayton became the all-time leader for most victories of any non-New York metropolitan area school at Madison Square Garden. UD has a 39-24 all-time record at the Garden. The Flyers’ 39 wins at the Garden are just head of Duke’s 38."

    I'm not sure what amazes me most about this. A) You have a blog B) You know this fact about the Flyers, or C) They even track this kind of thing. Go Flyers! Here's hoping for 40 wins at MSG!!!

    A. Everyone has a blog these days. Besides, I just started this one the other day.
    B. I know lots of stuff, but certainly not this one before reading it on DaytonFlyers.com.
    C. For that you can thank the crack staff in the UD sports information office, the same office that employed me my junior and senior years. Doug Hauschild, UD's SID for more than 25 years, has long kept interesting stats like that. Cool stuff, I think.
