Mike Nardi (born January 30, 1985, in Linden, New Jersey) is a 6'2" 170 lb[1] American basketball player who attended St. Patrick High School in Elizabeth, New Jersey and Villanova University.[2][3]
At Villanova, Nardi was most commonly known for his three point shooting abilities and his strength off the dribble. He posted 11.8 points per game his senior year. Nardi was a member of the "four guard lineup" alongside Randy Foye, Allan Ray, and Kyle Lowry, that led the Wildcats to an NCAA tournament number one seed, and an elite eight appearance where they lost to the eventual champions, Florida. They were ranked as high as the #1 team in the country in 2006 and they never left the top 10 that season. They split the regular season Big East title with UConn and lost to Pitt in the Big East tournament.[citation needed]
Nardi currently plays guard for Fulgor Libertas Forlì in Italian Legadue.
