Michael Gilchrist to visit Villanova

Posted Oct 2, 2009
Michael Gilchrist, a basketball player at St. Patrick High School in Elizabeth, N.J., who commutes from Somerdale, Camden County, will make an unofficial visit to Villanova on Saturday. Scout.com and Rivals.com rank the 6-foot-7 junior swingman as the nation's top prospect, regardless of class. Since Gilchrist's uncle, William Wesley, and Kentucky coach John Calipari are close friends, people think he's a lock to sign with the Wildcats. (Philadelphia Inquirer)
