Impact The nation's leading scorer at 25.7 ppg, Dixon didn't have the most efficient shooting night, but his high shot volume and trips to the charity stripe still resulted in a quality day for fantasy managers in points leagues. The end result was a resume-building victory for the Wildcats, who improve to 4-1 in Big East play after knocking off the defending national champions. Dixon, who was named to the Wooden Award watchlist recently, hasn't dropped off a bit in conference play, as he's posted 25.6 ppg through those five games.

His contributions don't look to be wavering any time soon, but the rest of the squad will have to get involved in order for the Wildcats to stay competitive in tough matchups to come.

Eric Dixon scores 31 points as Villanova beats No. 14 Cincinnati 68-60

Logs 31-point game over Cincinnati Dixon recorded 31 points (11-23 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 6-9 FT) and seven rebounds over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 68-60 win over Cincinnati.

Impact Dixon has been a monster scorer for the Wildcats so far this season, averaging a career-high 25.1 points per game, along with 6.6 rebounds and 1.4 steals which are also the best he's ever averaged. The senior forward has logged just one game under 20 points this campaign. His impact with Villanova should continue as they look to stay competitive in the tough Big East matchups to come.

Dixon leads Villanova against Rider

Villanova takes on the Rider Broncs after Eric Dixon scored 38 points in Villanova's 76-75 loss to the Maryland Terrapins

NOVEMBER 27, 2024 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Drops 38 against Terrapins Dixon provided 38 points (15-29 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 36 minutes during Sunday's 76-75 loss to Maryland.

Impact Dixon was that guy offensively for the Wildcats in the near win against Maryland, but his career-high 38 points wasn't enough as the team lost by just one. The senior forward is now averaging 26.7 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.2 steals across five games, and he's been relied on as the top scorer for Villanova with no game under 20 points yet this year. He'll likely have an easier matchup on Wednesday against Rider, but Big East opponents will soon arrive for tougher games.

Huge 33-point outing in loss Dixon closed with 33 points (11-16 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six rebounds, two assists and three steals across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 90-80 loss to Columbia.

Impact Dixon wasn't able to lead the Wildcats to a win against the underdog Columbia squad, but he still put together a very solid performance in the end. The senior forward had to serve a one-game suspension which kept him out of Villanova's season-opener win over Lafayette, but he didn't seem to miss a beat in his return to the court for game two of the season. He amassed more than 30 points just twice in the 2023-24 season, meaning he could already be on pace for a big campaign as the year unfolds.
