VILLANOVA, Pa. – Villanova University announced tonight that the roadway separating Finneran Pavilion and the Davis Center will be named "The Wright Way" to honor the career of William B. Finneran Endowed Head Men's Basketball Coach
Jay Wright, who was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Saturday night in Springfield, Mass.
"It is important to all of us at Villanova that we honor Jay's incredible coaching career on this historic night," stated Villanova Vice-President and Director of Athletics
Mark Jackson. "We felt the ideal location to showcase this tribute was between the two homes of Villanova Basketball, Finneran Pavilion and the Davis Center, as a fitting tribute to Jay and Patty Wright.
"Upon completion, this pathway will serve as a beautiful vista to our basketball home. The Wright Way is the right way for Villanova to honor two selfless leaders who have impacted our community in so many wonderful ways both on and off the court."
Details on the design and a timetable for its completion will be announced at a future date.
