The game started with Villanova jumping out to a 9-0 lead and that was a bad omen for the night. For much of the early first half Providence had more turnovers than field goals. Villanova scored 14 points of 14 first half turnovers by the Friars. The number for the game would be an ugly 25 Villanova points off 15 Providence giveaways. Other ugly disparities on the stat sheet in Tuesday night’s game was 26/31 from the free throw line for Villanova against just 6/12 free throws for Providence and 13/25 from downtown for the Wildcats while the Friars managed just 3/10 from 3-point range.

Council was a member of the class of 2014 when Providence first began expressing interest in the 6’4 guard from North Carolina. Following a summer on the grassroots circuit with his non-shoe company affiliated team Brand X, Council opted for a postgraduate year at Moravian Prep and became part of the class of 2015.
