Super Sub Donte DiVincenzo Leads Villanova to Second Championship in Three Years

The Villanova Wildcats are national champions for the second time in three years.

Villanova, led by star sixth man Donte DiVincenzo, breezed by Michigan 79–62 in the national title game on Monday night to win its third championship in school history.

DiVincenzo, a 6'5" redshirt sophomore guard, was the star of the night. The Delaware native exploded for 18 points in the first half and finished with 31 points on 10–15 shooting, plus five rebounds, three assists and a pair of highlight reel blocks.

Michigan’s two stars—Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman and Moe Wagner—played well in the game but the Wolverines struggled to get any contributions from its secondary players.
