A lot of things looked good on Saturday at the Wells Fargo Center. Omari’s slick new suit, the brand new championship banners, even the Villanova Dancing Guy’s new clean cut look (no beard/shaved head/same hat), it all looked good. But the defending champions? They looked GREAT. Now yes, this was an exhibition against a DII school (although the Crimson Hawks are no joke), but the Wildcats dominated from start to finish.
Villanova shot VERY well all game, going 58.6% (34-58) from the field, 54.8% (17-31) from beyond the arc, and 90% (9-10) from the line. They were effective in both the man and zone defenses, and had a great day in transition.
