Excited Nova Nation En Route To Final Four

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - Hundreds of Villanova students have left for Houston and the start of Final Four weekend.

Villanova Director of Student Involvement JJ Brown says it didn't take long to get rid of 700 tickets...at bargain basement prices:

An even better deal for senior roommates Elise MacGuidwin and Amy McCarthy.

"This is a graduation gift so I'm very thankful, very fortunate to be able to go to Houston," Elise says.

"My parents both went to Villanova so they're complete nationers so they were pushing me to go actually, so they're funding this experience," adds Amy.
