Cold-shooting Villanova struggles past Delaware State

VILLANOVA, Pa. — Jordan Longino’s three-point attempt late in the first half was pretty indicative of how things were going Monday night inside Finneran Pavilion for Villanova.

Villanova, out of the Associated Press top 25 this week for the first time since February 2019, missed their its 17 three-point shots and struggled all night with visiting Delaware State, a team that entered Monday having not earned a Division I win since March 2021.
