The first semifinal game features VCU against Saint Louis. Tip-off for that game is at 1 p.m.

Each semifinal team had Friday off to practice.

The voice of the Flyers, Larry Hansgen, is with the team and said it should be a raucous crowd for Dayton and Fordham.

Fordham is located in the Bronx and thousands of fans are expected to come out and support each team.

UD fans are expected to be also there Saturday.

“It feels amazing,” said Koby Brea, Flyer guard. “You know, just to have the opportunity to get out there and compete, which is what we love doing. We’re just ready to go and we can’t wait to play again.”
