ALMA MATER
In the Mississippi Valley,
In the Crescent Bend
Stands our loved and noble Xavier,
Far her praises send.
Refrain:
Wave her colors bear them onward
Gold and white so true
Hail to thee, all hail, dear Xavier
Hail, all hail, X.U.!
Xavier, ever be our guide
And lead us on the way,
Through life's journey, onward, upward
To the eternal day. (Refrain)

January 9, 2008
NEW ORLEANS — Xavier University of Louisiana remained at No. 11 in the NAIA Division I

It's the third consecutive ranking in which the Gold Rush is 11th. It also occurred

Xavier is 12-2 overall and shares first place in the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference

visit LSUS on Jan. 23 and host the Pilots on Feb. 14.
Mountain State (14-0) of Beckley, W.Va., is No. 1 for the third consecutive ranking and
