Villanova Vs. USF: Bulls Lead Wildcats 27-17 At The Half

As is often the case with South Florida, the first half of play in their matchup Wednesday evening with the Villanova Wildcats was a low-scoring, defensive affair, with the Bulls leading 27-17 at the half.

Victor Rudd Jr. has led South Florida offensively, scoring 10 points and grabbing five rebounds. Jawanza Poland has chipped in six points. As a team, the Bulls have held Villanova to just five of 25 shooting from the floor, including a goose egg zero for seven from behind the three point line.

The only Wildcats player to cause a ripple offensively was big man Mouphtaou Yarou, who has eight of Villanova's 17 points.
