The Villanova Wildcats will head to the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey this Saturday to take on the Notre Dame Fighting Irish in the inaugural Never Forget Tribute Classic. The event will help raise support for the Families of Freedom Scholarship Fund , an organization that provides scholarships to the children of 9/11 victims. It will also feature a match-up of fellow Pennsylvania schools Pitt and Penn State.
Villanova fans are very familiar with the Irish as former members of the Big East, but the two haven’t faced off since Notre Dame’s departure in 2013.
