After a moribund performance at S. Bonaventure three days ago, the UD men's basketball team had every reason to play desperate and angry on Friday night at A10 rival Saint Louis.  With NCAA at-large chances teetering on collapse and free-falling in the conference standings, the Flyers responded with a gutsy 71-63 win before a crowd of 9,819 at Chaifetz Arena.  Dayton improves to 15-7 (5-4) while SLU falls to 13-9- (6-3).

Cheeks hit another trey after the media timeout and finished a clean steal for an uncontested layup to give UD a 26-15 cushion.  Santos and Bennett kept the bomb squad on target with more triples to open up a 32-17 lead, but a 6-0 Sloo run cut the ...
