Fedorowicz: Villanova game shows La Salle has ways to go #philahoops #lasallembb

When I walked into Tom Gola Arena to watch the La Salle Explorers (4-3) take on #10 Villanova (7-0), I did not expect to see a classic. You know the type, the Big Five variety, where when team comes in lauded (usually Villanova) and another somewhat maligned (usually La Salle), but the records and rosters do not really matter. The kind of game that even if your team lost, fans walked away…

The Explorers struggled against Colgate, trailing the less-athletic, less-talented Riders for most of the first half.
