DAYTON FLYERS MEN'S BASKETBALL
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Housed in Dayton, Ohio since the university's founding in 1850, the Flyers have built one of college basketball's most formidable home environments at UD Arena, where they've posted a 13-3 record this season. Under Anthony Grant's leadership, Dayton's 16-9 overall record reflects a team that dominates at home while struggling on the road with just three wins in nine away games, a 10-game split that defines their season. The Flyers average 75.8 points per game while holding opponents to 71.4, a 4.4-point differential that has powered a 7-4 Atlantic 10 Conference record.
Anthony Grant's 15-man roster features a balanced attack across a program competing among 11,378 university students. Dayton's home court advantage manifests clearly: the team's .813 home winning percentage starkly contrasts with a .333 road mark, suggesting UD Arena's 13,455-seat capacity provides tangible benefits. With seven conference wins already secured, the Flyers remain positioned competitively within the Atlantic 10 as they seek to improve an inconsistent away performance that has plagued their winter season through mid-season play.
