Villanova rode the Corey Stokes wave this evening as the Wildcats defeated USF 83-71, behind Stokes' 22 points.
Led by Stokes' 5-for-5 3-Point shooting, 5 Villanovans were in double digits with Dominic Cheek who matched a career high with 17, Maalik Wayns' 16, Corey Fisher's 12, and Antonio Pena's 11.
The win was 'Nova's first conference win on the road as the squad improved to 13-1 on the year (2-0 in conference).
Villanova will next host undefeated and #25 ranked Cincinnati on Sunday from The Pavilion.
