evacuated about 45 minutes before the scheduled 9:30 p.m. EST tipoff when a
generator malfunction outside the arena sent smoke pouring into the building,
according to NBA spokeswoman Sharon Lima.NEW YORK -- Villanova had been living
large on the other side of the 3-point line. The eighth-ranked Wildcats had made
26 3s in their last two games and they shot better than 50 per cent from beyond
the arc in the wins over Providence and Seton Hall. Things were different
Saturday. With St. Johns playing some tough perimeter defence, the Wildcats made
just three of their 14 3-point attempts and down 56-55 with 7:44 to play. "I
thought St. Johns played really well. Their defence was outstanding." Villanova
coach Jay Wright said. "They did a great job of getting up on all of our people
and challenging them." The Wildcats, who were doing a good job of scoring inside
when the outside was dry, finally found a way to get going from the outside and
a 10-1 run carried them to a 74-67 victory at Madison Square Garden. The
Wildcats (15-1, 4-0 Big East) made two 3s in that run and both came off a big
play by one of the teams leaders -- Ryan Arcidiacono and JayVaughn Pinkston.
"Players have to make plays and JayVaughn and Ryan did," Wright said. "Im really
proud of Jay to be a decision-maker not just a scorer. He kicked it out to
Darren for a 3 that was a huge play." First, though, in the run was the play by
Arcidiacono. He made a steal near midcourt and then took off for what looked to
be a contested layup. "They are a good shot-blocking team and I knew they were
coming," the 6-foot-3 guard said. "I thought I could either get it punched or
bring it out. I did the smart thing and saw Kris on the other side." Freshman
Kris Jenkins, who is averaging just over a 3-pointer this season, buried the
3-pointer that started the 3-point run. Pinkston made his big play after he
contributed two free throws to the run. He had the ball inside and rather than
go up among a bunch of big men, he passed it out to Darrun Hilliard, whose 3
gave Villanova a 63-56 lead. "Were a tough-minded team and that comes from Coach
getting on us in practice and bringing us together," said Pinkston, who finished
with 15 points and 10 rebounds.

Jones Patriots Jersey. The Wildcats came into the game having shot better
than 50 per cent from the field and 3-point range in their last three games.
Against St. Johns (9-6, 0-3) they struggled from both in the first half shooting
25.9 per cent from the field (7 of 27) and 22.2 per cent from 3 (2 of 9). The
game was close through the first 12 minutes of the second half with neither team
having more than a three-point lead until Villanova went on a 10-1 run that gave
it a 65-57 lead with 3:13 to go. "At the end they made enough plays and then
some timely 3-point daggers, St. Johns coach Steve Lavin said. "They made enough
to get the win because we came up empty on our end." The Red Storm missed a lot
of shots inside and they went 4:40 without a field goal during Villanovas
game-deciding run. Josh Hart added 14 points for the Wildcats while Arcidiacono
added 13. DAngelo Harrison had 22 points for the Red Storm, who have lost three
straight, while freshman Rysheed Jordan had 12. "I expected to be 3-0 and our
whole team expected to be 3-0," said JaKarr Sampson, who had 10 points and nine
rebounds. "We have to play with energy and heart, play with a chip on our
shoulder. We have to clean up a few things down the stretch. Thats the main
thing." Jenkins hit a 3 to start the big run and after two free throws by
Pinkston, Hill hit his first 3 in five attempts to make it 63-56 and St. Johns
called a timeout. Harrison made one of two free throws and Hilliard capped the
rally with two free throws with 3:13 left that made it 65-57. The Red Storm, who
finished 2 of 11 from 3-point range and were outrebounded 48-39, got as close as
four points the rest of the way. Villanova finished at 35.2 per cent from the
field (19 of 54) and 31.3 per cent from 3-point range (5 of 16), breaking their
streak of three consecutive games at 50 per cent or better. Villanovas only loss
this season was at No. 2 Syracuse. This was the 1,600th win for the Villanova
program.
