Villanova Basketball: Three takeaways from the 2K Empire Classic

The 2020-21 college basketball season is underway. In their first taste of action in over eight months, the Villanova Wildcats managed to pick up a couple of wins and the 2K Empire Classic tournament title.

They opened up the season with a 76-67 win over the Boston College Eagles, where they pulled ahead in the second half.

On Thursday, while it was another fairly close contest, the Wildcats led for most of the game against the Arizona State Sun Devils. They gained some separation in the second half and pushed their lead to as high as 17, holding off Arizona State for an 83-74 win.
