Villanova Basketball’s Eric Paschall named as Karl Malone Award Top 10 Finalist

Happy Friday Nova Nation! It’s official, both of Villanova’s captains are super good at basketball. Yesterday Eric Paschall was named as a Top 10 Finalist for the Karl Malone Award, given annually to the year’s best Power Forward.

While the pair of seniors get recognition when talked about in the context of the team, this is the first time all year they’ve gotten any serious praise for their individual performances. Just as it was with Phil Booth, this is well deserved by Paschall, and it’s immensly satisfying to see him finally getting recognition.
