The Virginia Tech Hokies dropped to 7-4 on the season after Sunday’s 62-57 loss to Dayton. It was Tech’s fourth loss in six games, and shooting woes once again plagued the Hokies in the first half.
The Flyers went into halftime with a 29-22 lead. At one point in the first half, Dayton held a 12-point lead, but the Hokies trimmed the deficit just before halftime.
Howeve, Dayton came out of the second half red hot, going on an 18-7 run to extend their lead to 47-29. The 18-point gap seemed insurmountable for a struggling Virginia Tech team.
