Moe Wagner Feeling Himself After Scoring 9 of Michigan's 1st 11 vs. Villanova

Rob GoldbergApr 2, 2018

Michigan center Moritz Wagner was feeling good after a hot start to Monday's NCAA national championship game at the Alamodome in San Antonio.

The Wolverines were up 11-8 on Villanova at the first timeout, with Wagner scoring nine of his team's points. He showed his excitement as the game went into commercial:

Another Wagner layup gave Michigan a 21-14 lead, although the Wildcats woke up from there. The big man didn't score again the rest of the half as Villanova went up 37-28 at intermission.

However, it's tough to blame Wagner for his excitement after a great start to the game on a national stage.
