National basketball championships in 2016 and 2018.
An alumnus named pope in 2025.
Swelling enrollment numbers.
Record-setting capital campaigns.
Campus expansions to Cabrini and soon, Rosemont College.
And now, surging momentum for a would-be saint, one of its own Augustinians, Father Bill Atkinson, the world’s first quadriplegic priest.
With a winning streak like that and fellow Augustinian Pope Leo XIV leading the Church, it seems anything’s possible for Villanova these days.
