Happy Halloween Nova Nation! Yesterday came the official announcement that Women’s Basketball Coach Harry Perretta will be calling it a career following the 2019-2020 season.
Perretta is entering his 42nd season as the head coach of the women’s team, which is a record for the most seasons for a women’s basketball coach at a single school. His 765 career wins are a Villanova Basketball record that would take Jay Wright another decade of consecutive 30+ win seasons to match. Bottom line, Harry Perretta is a great coach and will be sorely missed.
Perretta became the head coach at Villanova in 1978, becoming just the 4th head coach in the program’s young history.
