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)

Xavier teams withdraw from Golden Eagle Classic
September 4, 2008
NEW ORLEANS — Xavier University of Louisiana's men's
and women's cross country teams have
withdrawn from Friday's Golden Eagle Classic Invitational at Hattiesburg, Miss.,
because the school remains closed.
Xavier closed this past Friday due to Hurricane Gustav, which hit metro New
Orleans on Monday and also canceled the Gold Rush's and Gold Nuggets' season-opening
Tulane Green Wave Invitational.
The university, which received minor damage from the storm, is scheduled to
reopen Monday.
Xavier's teams are next scheduled to run Sept. 13 in the Southern University
Invitational at Highland Road Park in Baton Rouge, La. Coach Joseph Moses
said he will attempt to fill open dates Oct. 4 and 18 to replace the canceled competitions.
The Barn, Xavier's campus gymnasium and the home of the Department of Intercollegiate
Athletics, had electrical power and showed virtually no storm damage during a Thursday
inspection. The facility received two feet of flooding as a result of Hurricane Katrina in August 2005.
