By Jake Courtepatte For the second year in a row, the Villanova Knights have put together one of the most dominant teams in CISAA (Conference of Independent Schools Athletic Association) men's basketball. With a 72-54 win over Holy Trinity School on home court Monday, the Knights second-highest points total of the season, the team has hit double digits in their winning streak. Taking every game since the season opener in November, the Knights 10-1 record is both tops in the West division of D1 B basketball and the entire conference, with one game left on the regular season following press-time. They closed out their regular season Wednesday on the road against Appleby College (5-6). The Knights are currently up two points on Upper Canada College in Toronto for the lead in the West division, and will earn a bye into the CISAA championship in early March. Hoping to follow the footsteps of their older counterparts are the junior Knights, who finished in a three-way tie for first in the West division of the junior D2 conference (6-1) and will need three wins to secure a championship. Their postseason run also begins in early March, starting with a visit to Crestwood Preparatory College. Rounding out the list is the U-14 squad, still looking to book their postseason ticket following a heartbreaking 39-37 loss to Holy Trinity School on Monday. The Knights sit two points out of a playoff position, a 5-5 record with one game remaining against Sterling Hall School.
