Briante Weber and Melvin Johnson each totaled 13 points for the Rams (3-1).

Treveon Graham, VCU's second-leading scorer who entered the game averaging 18 points per game, had just four points on 2-of-9 shooting.

The Rams' patented "Havoc" defense couldn't stop Villanova on Monday, allowing the Wildcats to make 50 percent of their shots while only mustering a 37.3 percent success rate on the offensive end.
