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)

Schedule change in Florida; Rush to play Bobcats first
December 27, 2011
NEW ORLEANS — Xavier University of Louisiana's
men's basketball team will play St. Thomas (Fla.) at 7 p.m. EST Wednesday and Florida Memorial
at 5 p.m. EST Thursday in the Miami Gardens Classic.
St. Thomas, host of the event, revised the pairings
this past week. Xavier originally was scheduled to play Florida Memorial on
the first day of this fourth annual event. Both Xavier games will be played
in the Fernandez Center at St. Thomas.
This is Xavier's third consecutive appearance in the
event. The Gold Rush defeated Florida Memorial 56-46 and lost 79-61 to St. Thomas
in 2009, then beat Webber International 69-42 and lost 61-58 to Dakota Wesleyan
in 2010. Xavier defeated St. Thomas 69-59 at The Barn on Nov. 11.
Xavier is 7-3 and ranked 21st in NAIA Division I. Junior guard Nick
Haywood averages a team-leading 10.4 points, and senior forward Cordell Hadnot
averages 10 points and a team-best 7.6 rebounds.
St. Thomas is 7-6 with a six-game winning streak,
and Florida Memorial is 4-7 with a five-game losing streak. FMU will play host to
Palm Beach Atlantic on Wednesday before facing the Gold Rush.
