Kerry Kittles is the Villanova Wildcats all time leader in both points and steals. He also amassed over 700 rebounds and 400 assists during his four year college career. Always one of the coolest Cats on the hardwood, # 30 was another one of my favorite high-sock wearing players during my Freshman year b-ball days of 1995-96 . I remember that we even had a set out of bounds play called ‘Nova.’ The Big East was the best in the mid 90’s. Happy Birthday Kerry.

1985 Tournament Hero Ed Pinckney
Happy Birthday Ed Pinckney! Ed led the 8th seeded Villanova Wildcats to the 1985 NCAA title in an upset over the heavy favorite Georgetown Hoyas and Patrick Ewing. He was voted Most Outstanding Player in the Tournament.
On November 3, 1995 Ed was in on the first tip-off in Toronto Raptors history. He faced off against Yinka Dare of the Nets.
