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)

November 22, 2011
NEW ORLEANS — RJ Daniels, a 6-foot-4
shooting guard from New Orleans and St. Augustine High School, signed a men's
basketball scholarship Tuesday with Xavier University of Louisiana.
Daniels averaged 8.9 points, six rebounds and two
steals per game this past season for the Purple Knights, who were 31-6 and won the Class 5A
state championship and the District 10-5A championship. Daniels scored nine
points Monday in St. Aug's season-opening 63-43 victory at Brother Martin.
"We are excited to bring RJ into the Xavier family,"
ninth-year Gold Rush coach Dannton Jackson said. "He is a great addition to our
program. He brings a winning attitude and academic excellence to our university.
He knows how to win. He's a tough
|
player. He can shoot the ball and take it to the rim."
Daniels, Xavier's first signee for 2012-13, will be a biology/pre-medical major.
The Gold Rush are 4-0 and ranked 21st in NAIA Division I.
The XU men were 27-6 in 2010-11 and qualified for the Buffalo Funds-NAIA Division I National
Championship for the fifth time in seven seasons. Xavier's 26 seasons of 20 or more victories are the most
in the history of Louisiana men's college basketball.
RJ Daniels signed a men's basketball scholarship
with Xavier University of Louisiana at the St. Augustine
High School library Tuesday. In attendance were, from left: XU athletics director
Dennis Cousin, XU head coach Dannton Jackson, family members
