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)

Gold Nuggets return to 21st in NAIA rankings
January 16, 2008
NEW ORLEANS — After spending one week at No. 20, Xavier University of
Louisiana returned to 21st in the NAIA Division I women's basketball coaches
poll released Wednesday.
The Gold Nuggets, 13-3 overall and 3-1 in the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference,
are tied for 21st with Cumberlands after defeating GCAC opponents SUNO 75-43
and Tougaloo 67-53 this past week. Xavier also tied for 21st in the
Dec. 5 and 12 rankings.
Union (15-0) of Jackson, Tenn., maintained the No. 1 spot it has held
since the preseason. The Lady Bulldogs were a unanimous choice for the top spot
for the fourth consecutive ranking.
Xavier will play a pair of GCAC games at home this week: 5:30 p.m. Thursday
against Mobile (8-7, 4-0) and 5 p.m. Saturday against William Carey.
The next coaches poll will be announced Jan. 23.
