SETON HALL 54 #6 VILLANOVA 80 F...the 'CATS from Philly College Hoops on the 'NOVA Campus cruises past the PIRATES of South Orange JERSEY U!..."CAMPUS HARDWOOD" quietly 'NOVA has built a #2 Seed for March Madness 2015! #SetonHallvsNova #SHPirates #NOVACats #BigEastBasketball

Jay Wright's Villanova Wildcats are rolling and they might be the one team flying under the radar for March Madness 2015 that will make major noise as a #2 seed. The Seton Hall Pirates found out first and foremost what the 2014-15 'Nova Cats are all about getting hammered by 24 points.  

It was all five 'Nova Starters in double figures led by Darrun Hilliard III game-high 18 points including 4 for 8 from deep. The Cat's jumped out to a 36-20 lead in the 1st half and never looked back. Along with Hilliard's 18 it was the other two 'Nova Guards Dylan Ennis and Ryan Arcidiacono adding 12 and ten points respectively as all three combined to shoot 8 for 17 from deep.

The Pirates of South Orange, NJ gets a team-high 15 points from Isaiah Whitehead and a dozen from Sterling Gibbs as they shoot as a team 32% from the field and the arc. Couple that with -9 points from deep and -11 in points from the stripe that was your ball game!

'Nova moves to a Big East leading 11-2 and 24-2 overall. The Pirates at 15-11 overall but just 5-9 in the Big East has plenty of work to do to get a NCAA Tourney look for 2015.
