And now onto basketball...
6:55
Dayton (14-6, 3-3 in A-10), picked to finish first in the Atlantic 10 preseason polls, enters tonight’s game on a two-game conference losing streak. The Flyers lost at Saint Joseph’s, 60-59 last Saturday and saw their 30-game home winning streak end with a 65-64 loss to Rhode Island on Wednesday.
6:55
The Bonnies (9-9, 2-3 in A-10) lost to Duqesne Wednesday night, 70-69, ending a two-game losing streak. They look to rebound in the sold-out Reilly Center, a place where they’ve won 10 of their last 11 games.
6:55
St. Bonaventure will be doing so without its top scorer. Sophomore Andrew Nicholson is out of the lineup tonight with a bout of food poisoning. Nicholson leads the Bonnies in points per game (16.7), rebounds per game (7.8) and blocks (40).
6:56
The Bonnies are now entering the court in front of a packed (and loud) student section.
6:56
Senior Jonathan Hall returns to the Bonnies’ lineup tonight. The senior, averaging 12.1 points and 4.9 rebounds per game missed the last three contests with a bruised foot.
6:59
Speaking of feet, the coaching staffs for both teams are wearing sneakers for "Coaches vs. Cancer Weekend," an effort by the American Cancer Society and the National Association of Basketball Coaches to raise cancer awareness.
7:02
A rousing national anthem from Kirk and Kellan Gilbert precedes the starting lineup announcement.
