UPDATE | Dayton tops OSU in second round of NCAA Men's Tournament
BUFFALO, N.Y. — The Dayton Flyers defeated the 22nd-ranked Ohio State University Buckeyes 60-59 in the second round of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament.
The Flyers can lay claim to having bragging rights on their “big brothers” from down the road after Vee Sanford banked in a layup with 3.8 seconds remaining to lift 11th-seeded Dayton to the victory over sixth-seeded OSU.
Sanford finished with 10 points, while Dyshawn Pierre led the Flyers (24-10) with 12 points in a matchup of Ohio schools separated by about 75 miles. Dayton advances to play the winner between third-seeded Syracuse and 14th-seeded Western Michigan in a South Region matchup on Saturday.
