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, six-time
defending men's and women's team champions of the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference,
will begin the 2012 cross country season Aug. 31 in the Mississippi College Opener
at Clinton, Miss.
Joseph Moses, returning for his eighth year as coach of the
Gold Rush and Gold Nuggets, announced the schedule Thursday.
Xavier will compete three additional times in the regular season
— Sept. 8 at the Loyola Wolfpack Invitational in suburban Metairie, La., Sept. 22
at the LSU Invitational in Baton Rouge, La., and Oct. 6 at the Walt Disney World Classic
in Kissimmee, Fla. — before returning to Clinton on Oct. 20 to defend its GCAC titles.
The Gold Rush and Gold Nuggets hope to qualify for the
NAIA National Championships at Vancouver, Wash., for the second straight
year and the fourth time in five years. Both GCAC team champions will receive
automatic bids to the national meet.
Xavier will make its first appearance in the
Walt Disney World Classic since 2006 and compete in the Eastern time zone for
the first time since 2007.
Xavier has 10 returning All-GCAC runners:
Emmanuel Detiege, Kwame Jackson, Javon Mead, Matt Pieri, Charles Shaw and Jamaal Williams
on the men's team and Donyé Coleman, Catherine Fakler,
Zahri Jackson and Hali Yarmush on the women's. The Jackson siblings were GCAC individual champions a year ago,
as was Pieri in 2010.
