Despite being underdogs against ranked opponents midweek, the DePaul Blue Demons and St. John’s Red Storm did not back down in their games. For the Blue Demons, the task was the mighty Villanova Wildcats who are the defending National Champions and #1 ranked team in the country. But that didn’t seem to faze DePaul as they shocked the college basketball world by sticking with the Wildcats the whole 40 minutes, even leading as late as the 3:50 mark of the second half. In the end it was the greatness of Villanova and star player Josh Hart which aided in the Wildcats 68-65 victory, but DePaul can walk away from that game with their heads held high.
