There’s no doubt that Villanova’s strengths on the gridiron laid on the defensive side of the ball.

On Tuesday, the CAA announced its all-conference teams and three of Villanova’s four honorees came on defense.

Senior linebacker Ed Shockley and punter John Hinchen led the ‘Cats with their first team All-CAA Defense selections.

Shockley led the Wildcats this season with 101 tackles, becoming the first Villanovan to pass the century mark since Don Cherry did so in 2014.

As for Hinchen, the reliable punter showcased one of the best legs in the CAA this season. He averaged 42.9 yards on 58 punts, with 14 of those going for 50 yards or longer.

Junior offensive tackle Ethan Greenidge was the lone representative on offense, earning second team All-CAA Offense honors.

Senior cornerback Malik Reaves rounded out Villanova’s all-conference players, after being named to the third team All-CAA defense.

This season, Reaves had 58 tackles, two interceptions, and one forced fumble.
