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)

Nuggets sweep at Alcorn State for first road win of season
September 9, 2011
Box score
LORMAN, Miss. — Xavier University of Louisiana's
women's volleyball team won 25-16, 25-14, 25-21 Friday at Alcorn State for its
second three-set victory in as many days and first road victory of the season.
"We did great," Xavier coach Christabell Hamilton said.
"I gave our players the game plan after watching Alcorn play Dillard the other night.
Then they went out and carried out the game plan. Our hitters stepped up,
our defense was solid, and Alex (Alexandria Rencher) was much more comfortable
as our setter than she was the last two matches.
"All around we played well. We never faced any serious
deficits. We were in front most of the match. It was good to get a win on the road."
The Gold Nuggets (3-2) will play Mississippi Valley at
3 p.m. Saturday at The Barn. It will be Xavier's fourth match in five days.
Alcorn State, an NCAA Division I member, is 1-7 and winless in two home matches.
The Lady Braves are 5-155 since the start of the 2005 season.
Xavier, an NAIA member, has 11 victories in four seasons
against NCAA Division I. The Nuggets have won four straight against Alcorn
dating to 2004.
