Hoops, America and Villanova basketball — what more can you ask for?
How about a Wildcat win?
Villanova’s second-half surge allowed them to pull away for a 90-63 season-opening victory against the American Eagles.
The Wildcats opened the second half with a 15-4 run to extend their lead into the 20s.
If there were any questions regarding how the new transfers would fit in, there was a key sequence in the second half where they looked bought in.
The sequence of the game happened where Tyler Burton, Nnanna Njoku and T.J. Bamba all dove for a loose ball on the court.
