RECAP TO COME
Villanova does what Villanova does
The Wildcats hit 11-19 from behind the arc in the first half to effectively run Xavier off of their own home court. Nova is a deadly three-point shooting team at any rate, and they seem especially effective against Xavier all the time. They went cool at the start of the second half as Xavier cut the lead to just three, but they couldn’t stop hitting down the stretch as the Muskies never quite got over the hump.
With his performance tonight, Trevon not only did everything he could to keep Xavier in the game, he passed David West on the all-time scoring chart.
