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)

XU's Echebelem is GCAC Player of the Week
August 30, 2012
NEW ORLEANS — For the second consecutive year,
Xavier University of Louisiana has the season's first Gulf Coast Athletic Conference
Player of the Week in women's volleyball. Chinedu Echebelem won the award for Aug. 20-26,
the conference announced Thursday.
Echebelem — a 5-foot-6 outside hitter from Dallas and
a graduate of Duncanville High School — earned the award
after recording 30 kills and 29 digs in three matches during the Lee Invitational at Cleveland, Tenn.
Echebelem had a pair of kill-dig double-doubles,
|
including 12 kills and 14 digs Saturday against Union (Ky.) in the Gold Nuggets' 25-20, 25-23, 18-25, 25-16 victory.
Echebelem had two double-doubles in 29 matches in 2011.
Xavier's home opener, scheduled for Tuesday against
city rival Loyola at The Barn, has been postponed. Xavier has been closed
since late Monday afternoon due to Hurricane Isaac, and the
university will reopen Tuesday. No makeup date for the match has been determined.
