DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — No reason to cut down the net after Dayton clinched a conference title. These fourth-ranked Flyers have more big moments in mind as March approaches. Obi Toppin demonstrated his assortment of dunks while scoring 23 points with near-perfect shooting, and the Flyers wrapped up the Atlantic 10 regular-season crown Friday night by beating Davidson 82-67.
The Flyers got their 18th victory in a row with their best shooting performance in 34 years. Dayton (27-2, 16-0) shot 72.3% from the field, its best mark since 1986, and made all but one of its shots from inside the arc. Full Story
UPDATE: Toppin scores 20, leads No. 3 Dayton to 84-57 win over Rhody

KINGSTON, R.I. (AP) — Obi Toppin’s whole family was there to celebrate his birthday with him: mom and dad, grandfather and grandmother, a pair of aunts and some godparents — all wearing shirts that were a mashup of the Dayton and Rhode Island logos
Dayton is back at UD Arena for Senior Night on Saturday as the Flyers face George Washington. Game time is 7 p.m. ET.
DAYTON, Ohio (AP) -- Dayton coach Anthony Grant was unhappy with his team at halftime of Saturday's game against Duquesne, and he let them know it.
Duquesne held a 38-36 lead at the intermission, and Grant had to make his team understand that if No. 5 Flyers didn't pick up the energy, they stood a good chance of losing their first game since Dec. 21.
Led by their best player, Obi Toppin, and Jalen Crutcher — who scored all of his 17 points in the second half — Dayton shook off the dust and cruised to an 80-70 victory over the Dukes, the 16th win in a row for the Flyers. (Read the Full Story)
