Dream denied: Virus dashes Dayton's magical hoops season FILE - In this Feb. Feb. 28, 2020, file photo, Dayton coach Anthony Grant, center, gives a hug to players Trey Landers, left, and Ryan Mikesell following the team's 82-67 win over Davidson in an NCAA college basketball game in Dayton, Ohio. The coronavirus outbreak has abruptly roused the University of Dayton from its dream of a basketball season. The 29-2 Flyers were rolling into tournament play on a 20-game winning streak that had lifted spirits in an Ohio city battered in the past year by violent deaths and devastation.

There is a time for heartbreak, and a time for healing. Step away from the pandemic news, and take a moment to appreciate the season the University of Dayton Flyers gave us.

Our special presentation on their season is now available on-demand on the WHIO Now app, available for Roku, Amazon Fire, Apple TV, and more.

News Center 7 Sports Director Mike Hartsock hosted a special presentation on the men’s and women’s season, and all that could have been.

He was joined by the voice of the Flyers, 1290 and 95.7 WHIO radio’s Larry Hansgen as they look at this season’s magical moments, and what’s next for the Flyers.

And yes, we showed some dunks by Obi Toppin.

Flyers coverage from throughout the season also available on-demand, just look for “Full Court Coverage.”
