SOUTH ORANGE, NJ – Villanova put together their most complete performance as a team this season, winning game two against Seton Hall 8-1 in New Jersey.
 
The bats for Villanova got going early and often.  In the first inning the Wildcats were able to put up two runs from an RBI single into right field.  The momentum would carry into the second inning with a one-run RBI single and a two-run RBI double to extend the lead to 5-0.
 
After a scoreless third for Villanova, a two-run homer struck in the fourth giving the team a 7-0 lead. 
 
The Pirates were held scoreless through the first four innings but were finally able to score in the fifth.  An RBI single to right field put Seton Hall on the board.
 
Villanova responded with a pair of sacrifice flies in the sixth and seventh to take their largest lead of the game, 9-1.
 
Seton Hall added one more in the seventh to get our final score, 9-2.
