The end of an era
Today the Dayton Flyers men's basketball team will take on St. Joe's in the final game of the regular season. Three seniors will be recognized: Brian Roberts, Andres Sandoval, and Jimmy Binnie. I have attended almost all of the Flyers home games since I was a freshman, and I have had the pleasure of watching one of the greatest UD players at each one of those games. When Brian Roberts began playing during our freshman year, I knew immediately that he would bring a level of talent to the Arena that hadn't been there for a long time. The numbers and the awards speak for themselves, notably his #5 ranking on the all-time Flyers scoring list and his incredible 87.7 free throw percentage. I cannot wait to hear the ovation at today's game during senior recognition. Brian Roberts will be remembered, and missed.
