Once Again Villanova Struggles Down The Regular Season Stretch


During the 2009-10 college basketball season senior Scottie Reynolds and the Villanova Wildcats struggled to end the season. Villanova was eliminated early on during the Big East Tournament. Villanova was then eliminated in round two of the NCAA Tournament by St. Mary's of California. St. Mary's were a double digit seed. Fast forward to the current 2010-11 season Villanova started the season on fire, ranked well into the top five. Now they stand 9-8 in the Big East Conference, while senior Corey Fisher is in a shooting slump. Currently the Wildcats have lost three in a row vs. Syracuse & St. Johns at home and allowed Notre Dame to can 20 three's on the road. Villanova will close the season over the weekend at Pitt, the Panthers came into the Pavillion and beat the Wildcats two weeks ago. More than likely Villanova a team ranked 11th in their conference, will begin their conference tournament on day one. Tuesday is day one of festivities at Madison Square Garden, while teams have single and double bye's during the 5 day tournament, Villanova will probably part take in day one. It's possbile they could fall out of the top 25. We shall see will history repeat itself in back to back seasons.
