Dayton Flyers men's basketball coach Archie Miller has agreed to a contract extension that will keep him with the team through 2019, according to Andy Katz of ESPN.

Miller led the eleventh-seeded Flyers to wins over Ohio State and Syracuse in the NCAA tournament's opening weekend, securing the team a spot in the Sweet 16, where it will face off against the tenth-seeded Stanford Cardinal.

Dayton hired Miller in 2011 from Arizona, where he was an assistant under his brother Sean Miller. The team is 62-37 since Miller took the helm.
