The Big 10 Champions jumped out early on the Wildcats. Mo Wagner scored 11 points in the first half and led the Wolverines to a 21-14 early lead.
Much has made about the Villanova starters and how good they are – but don’t forget about their 6th man. When the Wildcats needed a basket, here came Dante DiVencenzo, who started scoring at will. The Big East 6th Man of the Year finished the half with 18 points, and the Wildcats finished on a 23-7 run to take a 9 point lead into halftime.
Can the Wolverines come back the way that they did against Loyola on Saturday. Or will the Wildcats continue their run to win their second National Championship in the last 3 years. 20 minutes left!!!!
