Villanova Dominates Season Opener
Now I know that the Sacred Heart Pioneers are not a good team, but Villanova was flat out dominate. They limited the pioneers to 36% shooting and blocked a total of 11 shots. Their defense was great and it looks like the addition of Sean Webb will be huge for the Wildcats. He scored 8 points on 4 of 7 shooting, grabbed 5 boards and sent away 2 shots as well. He did turn the ball over 4 times, but they were all in the first half, most likely because he was nervous. Chris Kramer had a well rounded season debut. He was the leading scorer with 19 points but he also had 4 rebounds and dished out 5 assists.
Sean Webb was very good in his debut with the Wildcats
The Wildcats do have some things to correct however. The bench was not good, only scoring 4 points on 2 of 12 shooting. Dominic Cheek wasn't good at all, going 0-5 from the field. They also need to improve their transition defense. Too many times last night, the pioneers would have an uncontested layup on a fast break. They shouldn't be so lazy getting back on defense when they turn it over. The three points shooting also wasn't there last night as they only shot 6-18.
Chris Kramer finishes off a spectacular drive with a jam.
Despite the few weak spots, Villanova looks to be a very strong team this season. The bench will not continue to play as bad as they did, because they are just too talented, and dont count on Dominic Cheek to continue to go 0-5 from the field. Villanova looks to improve their record to 2-0 when they take on the mountaineers of Appalachian State next Tuesday, before kicking off the Maui Invitational which starts on November 23. Be sure to tune in.
