Fans of the Dayton Flyers fall into that category, and Lunardi included their team in his bracket. The Flyers, who return three starters and add four transfers from a team that finished 21-12, are a No. 10 seed in the first bracket. Lunardi has them playing No. 7 seed Saint Mary’s, a team Dayton played in the regular season in 2016 and 2017, in the first round in Omaha, Neb.
