Villanova continues to retool for the 2026 season after a slew of offseason transfers — and now they are adding some freshman commits. After fellow freshman Adam Oumiddoch committed to Villanova in March — the Wildcats just added yet more talent last week. Carter Fisk joins Villanova after being a standout start at St. Francis in Maryland — where he led them to a 36–7 record and was also (The Baltimore Sun’s) All-Metro boys basketball Player of the Year. St. Francis was also the 2026 Baltimore Catholic League Champions.
Villanova’s offseason hasn’t just be about replacing lost talent. It will also be about a plan for Kevin Willard’s team to move towards the glory of the past decade. To do this — the Wildcats will need both. That included freshman commits.
After an offseason thus far full of departures from the Villanova Basketball Program. Now they’ve added a number one player. Literally. So far this year — Villanova has lost Acaden Lewis, Bryce Lindsay, Braden Pierce, Malachi Palmer, Chris Jeffrey, Zion Stanford, Malcolm Flaggs, Duke Brennan, Tafara Gapare.
At the start of April — The Wildcats have lost three talents so far in the NCAA Transfer Portal. Freshman 6 foot 2 guard Aceden Lewis — a runner-up for Big East rookie of the Year — has entered the transfer portal for next year. Sophomore Guard Malcolm Flaggs, Duke Brennan, and freshman Nico Onyekwere have now joined him.
One thing is for certain. The Wildcats roster will look completely different in 2026. The roster is already filling out.
