The Basketball Tournament: Former Flyer will compete in 33-Point Contest at UD Arena

» TBT AT UD: Four teams punch their tickets to Dayton

The eight competitors — two from each regional — will shoot between the first TBT semifinal, which takes place at noon, and the second at 2:30 p.m.

Sibert could also be playing with the Red Scare that day. The Dayton alumni team starts play in the TBT at 3 p.m. Saturday and has to win three games in four days to reach the quarterfinals at UD Arena. If it advances to the semifinals, it would play in the semifinal that takes place after the 33-Point Contest.

Sibert scored 1,030 points in two seasons at Dayton and helped lead the Flyers to the Elite Eight as a junior and to a 27-9 season as a senior when the Flyers beat Boise State and then Providence before losing to Oklahoma. In his final season in 2014-15, he was honored on Senior Night and then played at home again in the First Four, making the go-ahead 3-pointer in the final minute against Boise State.

The other seven shooters in the contest will be:

• Jeff Ledbetter (The Money Team): He shot 45.4 percent from 3-point range at Idaho as a senior in 2010-11.

• Ot Elmore (Herd That): He played two seasons at Marshall and was one of the standout players in the TBT in 2020.

• Chris Moore (Primetime Players): He scored 1,106 points in four seasons at Charleston Southern.

• Anthony Mathis (The Enchantment): He scored 1,244 points in four seasons at New Mexico and one at Oregon.
