🔼  Double Trouble. Two track & field men advance to the NCAA Finals in their events! Liam Murphy got it started by automatically qualifying in the 1500m after winning the first heat. Sean Dolan secured the final on-time qualifying spot in the 800m. Roschell Clayton and Sadie Sigfstead will be representing the Villanova women at the meet today. Clayton will compete in the high jump and Sigfstead will take on the 10,000m. The meet will air on ESPN2.

🔼 Smarty ‘Cats. Villanova remains among the best with 13 varsity sport programs recording perfect 1000 multi-year Academic Progress Rate scores. This is the seventh-straight year the Wildcats have had 10 or more teams earn a perfect score. Men and women’s tennis, golf, water polo, men’s basketball, women’s cross country, women’s track & field, field hockey, men’s lacrosse, rowing, women’s soccer, softball, and men’s swimming & diving earned perfect scores.

🔼 Caroline’s Circle. Softball pitcher Caroline Pellicano set some records in the circle to cap off her senior season. She owns the program records in saves (17), games finished (81), and relief appearances (95). The senior was named 2024 BIG EAST Championship Most Outstanding Player and to the BIG EAST All-Tournament Team in 2023 and 2024.
