In addition to all the obvious benefits and rewards that were achieved by our team on Monday night, there were a few more benefits that should be mentioned.
First of all, we exorcised the Oklahoma demon that followed us around all year long-----and we did it in a BIG way!! Secondly, we exorcised the demon of getting past the first weekend, which has dogged us for the past several years, and we did that in an even BIGGER way. And finally, we exorcised that demon of the "negative perception" concerning our team and our conference that has pervaded much of the country and the media for the past 3 years, and we did that in a "spectacular" way with a tournament run and a final game that the country wont soon forget!!
One thing is for sure and cant be denied by anyone-------when Villanova wins a National Championship we do it in a spectacular and unforgettable way--------the Wright Way!!
Now I'm looking forward with excitement to our next tournament run to see what else we could possibly do to top the first two-----one that was considered by most to be the biggest upset in NCAA Tournament history, and this one, which is being mentioned as not only one of the best final games ever played, but its also arguably the best and most dramatic finish ever seen in a Championship game!
Its really a wonderful time to be a Villanova Wildcat and part of the Nova Nation---------so lets all relish, appreciate and enjoy every minute of it as we celebrate our National Championship and the future success of Villanova Basketbal!!!
