Neptune ready to keep Villanova elite as Wright's successor | |
PHILADELPHIA (AP) Jay Wright patted his chest in appreciation of the cheering crowd before he threw a first pitch to Phillies manager Joe Girardi.

Wright's call to the bullpen worked great on a lazy Sunday night. Now comes the part where every game is the bottom of the ninth for the 37-year-old Neptune as he succeeds the retired Wright: Can a longtime assistant with one season of head coaching experience keep Villanova humming along as a perennial Big East Conference champion with Final Four expectations?
