  • Villanova Wins 2018 Advocare Invitational Men's Basketball Tournament at Disney
    Villanova Wins 2018 AdvoCare Invitational Men’s Basketball Tournament at Disney Let’s all stop worrying about the Villanova Wildcats. All it took was a trip to Walt Disney World Resort for head coach Jay Wright to get his team back on track after dropping back-to-back games last week and falling out of the AP Top 25 poll for the first time since 2013. Villanova (5-2) won its sixth consecutive early-season tournament championship on Sunday, dispatching the previously unbeaten No. 14 Florida State Seminoles (5-1), 66-60, to claim the 13th annual AdvoCare Invitational at HP Field House at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Disney. The Wildcats, winners of two of the past three NCAA men’s national titles, don’t have all aspects of their game figured out by any stretch, according to Wright. But Sunday’s win against the very deep and talented Seminoles answers one question that was rattling around Wright’s mind at the outset of the tournament. “Winning here this weekend and against a very good Florida State team tells me that maybe we are not as inexperienced as I thought we were following the two loses against Michigan and Furman,” Wright said. “Against Michigan, we panicked. Against Furman, we were undisciplined. During the past three games and especially tonight against Florida State, we were patient, we didn’t panic, and we were disciplined – especially when they made their run and keep coming at us. You can take wins like tonight and keep building your team, and that’s what we plan to do.” The Wildcats shot a blistering 54 percent from the field and were led by point guard Collin Gillespie, who scored a game-high 17 points.
