Villanova’s season has come to an end after a heartbreaking loss to Kansas in the Final Four.
Trailing 79–65 with 35 seconds left in regulation, Wildcats coach Jay Wright began to sub out his seniors as reality started to set in. Villanova eventually lost the game, 81–65.
Wright first embraced star guard Collin Gillespie, the reigning Big East Player of the Year. A visibly emotional Gillespie made his way down the bench flanked by fellow senior Jermaine Samuels who also shared a long hug with his head coach.
