INDIANAPOLIS - A convincing win at No. 6 singles by David Peyton was not enough for visiting Dayton as the Flyers fell to Butler on Tuesday.

Peyton, a sophomore from Kettering, Ohio, defeated Scott Newmark in straight sets by identical scores of 6-2, 6-2 for Dayton's lone victory of the match. Peyton improves his singles record to 4-8 with the win.

Senior Tom Murphy took Butler's James Low to the limit before falling in three sets. After losing the opener, 6-3, Murphy roared back with a 6-1 victory in the second set before falling to Low in the third, 7-5. Murphy falls to 12-2 on the spring season with the loss.

The Flyer doubles teams all played competitive matches with Peyton and Rex Cabrera falling at third doubles by a count of 8-6. UD's first and second doubles pairs of Murphy/James O'Connell and Michael Rohana/Antonio Rodriguez each lost by scores of 8-5.

Dayton will head south for a three-match Spring Break trip to Fort Meyers, FL. The Flyers are scheduled to face Farliegh Dickinson (Monday), UW-Green Bay (Tuesday) and Florida Gulf Coast (Wednesday) during the trip.
