John Belk Arena, Davidson, 9 p.m. ESPN2

Charles Cooke (16.3 points per game) is the scoring leader for a Dayton team whose real trademark is defense. The Flyers, coached by former N.C. State point guard Archie Miller, are holding opponents to 40 percent field-goal shooting. ... Peyton Aldridge had 27 points, 13 rebounds and five assists in Davidson’s loss Tuesday at Richmond.
