VILLANOVA, Pa.— After a national search for the successor of an all-time coaching legend, Villanova is bringing home one of its own to be just the fifth head coach in the history of its women's basketball program. Denise Dillon '96, a Villanova Varsity Club Hall of Fame inductee with 17 years of Division I head coaching experience, was announced Friday afternoon by Villanova University Vice President and Director of Athletics Mark Jackson, as the next Wildcats head coach. Dillon will take the reins from Harry Perretta, who retired at the end of the 2019-20 season after 42 years leading the program.
