Villanova beats #3 Pitt
PHILADELPHIA (AP)—A Philly guy had a career night in the last college basketball game to be played in the Spectrum.
That will be Reggie Redding’s only memory of the place as he never saw a game in the building where he had a career-high 18 points and grabbed seven rebounds as No. 21 Villanova beat No. 3 Pittsburgh 67-57 on Wednesday.
“My father is a big basketball fan. When I was younger, he would talk to me about Dr. J, Moses Malone, Andrew Toney. I never got the chance to watch a game here. But I knew about it coming from a basketball background,” the junior guard said of the building that opened in 1967 and will be torn down later this year. “But coming from Philly, it’s the Spectrum. Everyone loves the Spectrum, respects it. It’s just great to finish it off like that.”
Dante Cunningham added 15 points for the Wildcats (16-4, 4-3 Big East), who beat a ranked team for the first time in five tries this season and they did it by coming up big on the boards and playing good perimeter defense in the second half.
