Dayton President Crowdsurfing After Syracuse Win [VIDEO]

Dayton upset Syracuse in the second round of the NCAA Tournament on Saturday night.

It's the school's first Sweet 16 appearance since 1984.

A wild scene erupted on campus after the win, and riot police were dispatched to control the crowd. The most unlikely reveler â€" school president Dr. Daniel J. Curran.

Curran crowd-surfed down Kiefaber Street [2] as students tried to pass him beers and chanted, "Doc-tor Dan! Doc-tor Dan!"

The video is pretty great:

He was ecstatic:

He also poised for pictures, including this one in front of riot police that Deadspin got its hands on [5] .

It was a relatively good-natured celebration. There were only eight arrests [9] , WDTN reports, which is significantly fewer than the 100 arrests [10]  at the school on St. Patrick's Day.

Well done, Dr. Dan.
