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)

NEW ORLEANS — Xavier University of Louisiana's
Nick Haywood is the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference Player of the Week in men's
basketball for Nov. 21-27.
Haywood, a 6-foot junior guard from Monroe, La., and
a graduate of Ouachita High School, scored 26 points and made seven 3-pointers Saturday
in Xavier's 78-67 loss at Wiley. The points were the most by a Gold Rush player
since Michael Harvey scored 27 at home against Tougaloo on Feb. 8, 2010,
and the 3-pointers were the most since Mark Stewart made a school-record-tying eight
at Mobile on March 7, 2008.
Haywood, who did not start against Wiley, played 29
minutes and was 7-of-17 from the floor and 7-of-13 on 3-pointers. He made all
five of his free throws.
This is Haywood's first year at Xavier after playing
at NCAA Division I Houston the past two seasons. Through five games he ranks
third on the Gold Rush with 9.4 points
|
per game and leads the team with nine made 3-pointers. He averages 17.5 minutes.
The Gold Rush have earned two GCAC player awards this season.
Junior forward Denzell Erves received the other for Oct. 31-Nov. 6.
Xavier, 4-1 and ranked 21st in NAIA Division I, will play twice at
home this week — against city rival Loyola at 7:30 tonight and
against Concordia (Ala.) at 4 p.m. Saturday.
