WINING POST:
Since I was born, my father Nova ‘78, raised me on Villanova. He always said to my siblings and I, "You can go wherever you want, but the check's going to Villanova." Gladly all three of us attend Villanova now. It wasn't just Villanova, Villanova basketball was the most important thing and since I was born I've only missed a couple of home games. My father was diagnosed with cancer in 2010 and at the first tournament game in 2010, the team huddled up and prayed for my dad and ended up winning the game. He passed away the next day and Villanova ended up losing the day after. Father Rob gave my family the pin from the tournament and even gave my dad his last rites. My dad bled blue, from being at the 1985 game, to going to every home game until he died. One of the greatest gifts my dad gave me was a love for Villanova basketball and I can think of no better way to honor him and celebrate his life than to watch the 'cats make it out of the weekend on the 6th anniversary of his death (3/19). Go ‘Cats.
