Wright paces Dayton over George Washington 66-51

Jan 21, 2010 - 2:27 AM DAYTON, Ohio(AP) -- Chris Wright had 14 points and 12 rebounds and sparked an early second-half surge to lead Dayton to a 66-51 victory over George Washington on Wednesday night.

Dayton (14-4, 3-1 Atlantic 10 Conference) opened the second half with a 16-4 run to lead 54-30 with 14:35 left. Wright scored the Flyers' first eight points of the half.

Leading scorers Wright and Chris Johnson were a combined 2 of 14.

Dayton, which extended its school-record home winning streak to 30 games, also got 13 points from Marcus Johnson, 11 from Mickey Perry and 10 from Chris Johnson.
