Player of Game: PF Jose Blanco (VLNV)

The Villanova Wildcats are the 2027/28 NCAA Division I men's basketball champions!

It's the first national championship for the Wildcats, and the second for their coach, Graham Sims.

An exciting first half sees the lead change hands several times. 'Nova takes a 43-38 lead into the break, as Duncan Sims sinks a three and hits two free throws in the final 66 seconds of the half.

The 'Cats hold their lead until the 5:25 mark of the second half, when Robert Glidden ties the score by hitting both ends of a one-and-one. Neither team can open up a lead of more than two points during the remainder of regulation time. With ten seconds left and Texas leading, 74-72, Longhorn defenders lose track of Bruno Le Fleurquin. Sims spots him, gets him the ball, and BLF scores on a nifty baseline drive. Leonicio Montero tries a game-winning three and misses. On to overtime we go.

Again, the teams pass the lead back and forth for much of the extra period. Jonah Tuck gives the Longhorns a 79-76 advantage when he rebounds Greg Bono's missed free throw and slams it home.

On our next possession, Avery Sullivan demonstrates his top-tier athletic ability. He misses a short jumper from the left side, bursts past two Longhorns, grabs the ball, and dunks with authority to cut the lead back to one. Then, Jacob Allen swipes a pass and takes it all the way for another dunk. With 1:04 on the clock, we have the lead, and we don't relinquish it again.

Jose Blanco scores the final basket of our season a moment later, when Allen gives the ball to him on a 2-on-1 break. Jose finishes with a team-high 19 points, and combined with his other achievements, it's enough to earn him Player of the Game honors.
Record: 36-3.
