On Thursday, January 10th, the Villanova men's basketball team took their show on the road to Don Guanella, a school for mentally handicapped boys and young men in Springfield, Pennsylvania. Coach Jay Wright and his team interacted with the students by shooting around, contests, slam dunks and more. They brought out the best in everyone there by just being their charismatic selves.
Here's what some of the staff had to say about the visit to Don Guanella:
"I really enjoy going back there each year to interact with the kids and see how much they've grown."
Johnny Holley, Graduate Assistant
"It was a very rewarding and uplifting experience, and it helped keep things in perspective."
Billy Lange, Coordinator of Basketball Operations
"I really enjoyed meeting the kids. They had tremendous spirit and energy. . . . I know that it touched many of us there. I look forward to going back there again!"
Brett Gunning, Assistant Coach
