Villanova's John Pinone
John Pinone played so well for so long, his number 45 jersey
now hangs from The Pavilion rafters, retired in a 1995 ceremony. He
was a four-time all-Big Five performer, a three-time Geasey MVP, a three-time
all-BIG EAST pick, an Academic All-American, a two-time international
representative and a two-time NCAA Tournament all-region pick. That
kind of thing happens when a player scores more than 2,000 career points
and grabs more than 1,000 rebounds while his team wins at least 20 games
each of four years and advances to the NCAA Tournament in each. He
still stands sixth on Villanova's scoring chart (2,024 points) and eighth
in rebounding (837 boards). Pinone is still the lone freshman to pace
the Wildcats in scoring (14.5 a game in 1980). In 1982 he was a member
of the U.S. World Championship Team.
