NCAA South: Gators Win 30th Straight Game; Oust Flyers To Reach Final Four

At Memphis, Tennessee:

Scottie Wilbekin scored 23 points as the top-seeded (for region and overall) Florida Gators (36-2) outlasted the eleventh-seeded Dayton Flyers (26-11) 62-52 in Saturday's South Regional final in the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament played at the FedExForum.  The victory was the Gators' 30th in a row and lifted them into their first Final Four since 2007, when they won the second of back-to-back national titles, this after watching their season end in the regional final in each of the last three years.
