Wright to Nova fans: 'What's better that this?'
VILLANOVA, Pa. -- Amid chants of "Nova! Nova!" Villanova students and fans loudly welcomed their men's basketball team back to campus Tuesday night, a day after the Wildcats claimed their second national championship in three years.
Players were treated like rock stars as they made their way into the ancient Jake Nevin Field House for a celebration.
"What's better than this?" coach Jay Wright said as the crowd roared.
Behind Donte DiVincenzo's career-high 31 points off the bench, Villanova routed Michigan 79-62 on Monday in San Antonio to win the school's third national title.
