Explore MARCH MADNESS: 5 fast facts to compare UD Flyers and Wichita State Shockers

UD is known for its celebrations. Back in 2014, then-president Dan Curran was seen crowd-surfing after the Flyers upset victory over the Syracuse Orangemen.

So, would UD have the better victory party or would Wichita State?

Niche, a website that reports on data from communities, ranked UD as the fourth best party school in Ohio. The website gave UD an “A+” rating for its party scene and an “A-” for access to bars.

The same website ranked Wichita State the 10th top party school in Kansas. The school was given a “B-” for its overall party scene but it was given an “A-” rating for access to bars.

UD was also ranked second in the 2017 Princeton Review for “lots of beer,” while Wichita State was left off the 20-school list entirely.
