DaShaun Wood scored 27 points for Wright State, and teammate Will Graham hit four free throws in the last 12 seconds to lead the Raiders past No. 19 Butler 60-55 last night. The win gave Wright State the Horizon League postseason title, and also secured the team's second trip to the NCAA tournament. Butler still looks like a solid bet to receive an at-large to the NCAA tournament.
