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)

Wet forecast will keep Xavier tennis teams home
March 25, 2009
NEW ORLEANS — Xavier University of Louisiana's
trip to Rome, Ga., for the NAIA Blast Off tennis tournament was scrapped
Wednesday when host Shorter College canceled the event due to the threat
of inclement weather.
The Gold Rush and Gold Nuggets were scheduled to
play Friday through Sunday in the tournament, which included seven ranked
men's teams and nine ranked women's teams. Weather.com predicts an 80-percent
chance of rain or showers on Thursday and Friday and a 70-percent chance
of thunderstorms on Saturday.
The cancellation will create a two-week gap in
Xavier's schedules. The Rush's and Nuggets' next competition will be dual
matches against NCAA Division I opponent Alcorn State at 11 a.m. on April
4 at the University of New Orleans Tennis Center.
Xavier's men are 12-4 and ranked 13th in
this week's NAIA coaches poll, and the women are 13-4 and ranked 15th.
