Wright, Johnson expected to play in exhibition
Chris Wright and Marcus Johnson practiced with the team Friday, and Dayton coach Brian Gregory said the two stars will play in Monday’s exhibition against Northern Kentucky.
Wright (ankle) and Johnson (ribs) missed the first exhibition against Ferris State with minor injuries.
The Flyers received some mention in this week’s edition of The Sporting News. They’re picked to win the Atlantic 10, and Wright was one of five players named to the All-Non-BCS team along with Butler’s Gordon Hayward, Nevada’s Luke Babbitt, Virginia Commonwealth’s Larry Sanders Jr. and Tulsa’s Jerome Jordan.
The Flyers could be in for a tussle against Northern Kentucky, which finished 24-7 and won the Great Lakes Valley Conference last season. The Division II Norse return two starters and will add three D-1 transfers to their mix this season: 6-9 David Palmer (Iowa), 6-7 Yan Moukoury (Houston) and 6-7 Chris Knight (Bowling Green).
Dustin Maguire, a 6-5 guard who once played for Saint Louis, averaged a team-high 15 points for the Norse last season. They’re ranked 20th nationally in D-II and will play at Xavier on Saturday.
