It's official: Reynolds returns

Villanova University issued a press release today confirming that star freshman guard Scottie Reynolds will indeed return for his sophomore year.

Though this announcement was widely expected this week, the official word from the university should finally put to rest the last of speculation and worry on the Main Line.

Coach Jay Wright praised Reynolds in his official statement:

Scottie is a very mature and intelligent young man. He has high aspirations for his career as a basketball player as well as a deep regard for his academic career. He considered both of these factors and came to a decision that we're all proud of.

Reynolds will join a talented incoming class of three true freshmen and two red-shirt rookies next season as the Wildcats look to make another run at the NCAA Tournament.
