Eric Dixon's 32-Point Surge Keeps Villanova's NCAA Hopes Alive in Win Over Seton Hall

Villanova rallied from a 13-point deficit to claim a critical victory, with Dixon's dominant performance leading the way.

Villanova overcame a 13-point second-half deficit to defeat Seton Hall 59-54, bolstering their slim NCAA Tournament hopes.
Eric Dixon scored 32 points, including 25 in the second half, and recorded 10 rebounds, marking his fourth 30-point game of the season.
The Wildcats' defense held Seton Hall scoreless for over nine minutes in the second half, enabling a 17-0 run that shifted the game's momentum.
Villanova, currently sixth in the Big East standings, remains on the edge of the NCAA Tournament bubble and must perform strongly in the Big East Tournament to secure a bid.
Dixon, the NCAA's leading scorer with 23.3 points per game, has not been included in Wooden Award discussions despite his standout individual season.
