What you'll accomplish: Our camp provides the foundation for young players to develop and improve their basketball skills. We welcome all ability levels, and we provide a positive, encouraging teaching environment to learn and have fun. We will provide the tools to become a better player and help stimulate enthusiasm for the game. We look forward to seeing you this summer.

Xavier men's coaching staff: Xavier graduate and former player Dannton Jackson is 115-50 in five seasons as the head coach of the Gold Rush men's basketball team. Xavier was 24-10 during the 2007-08 season and reached the NAIA Division I National Championship for a program-record fourth consecutive time. Xavier has two road victories the past two seasons against teams ranked in the NAIA's top three, including an 82-79 upset of Georgetown (Ky.) in the 2007 NAIA tourney — the Rush's first opening-round victory since 1973. Jackson is assisted by David Egans, Xavier's leading scorer in 2000-01 and an honorable-mention NAIA All-American.

Team members: Selected members of the Xavier men's team will assist coaches Jackson and Egans in camp activities.
