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)

Gold Nuggets 14th in NAIA after dropping 2 more places
|
January 22, 2013
NEW ORLEANS — Another loss resulted in another
drop for the Xavier University of Louisiana women's basketball team.
After losing 63-56 at home Jan. 14 to Gulf Coast Athletic
Conference and city rival SUNO, the Gold Nuggets fell two places to 14th in
the NAIA Division I Coaches' Top 25 Poll announced Tuesday afternoon.
Voting was based on games through Sunday.
It's the second consecutive week that Xavier dropped
after ranking ninth for two consecutive polls. Moving two spots ahead of the Gold Nuggets was
Bethel (Tenn.), which lost 75-67 in double overtime at Xavier on Jan. 2.
The Gold Nuggets are in the top 25 for the 37th consecutive time
dating to Jan. 25, 2010.
Since the loss to SUNO, Xavier defeated Philander
Smith 65-47 on Saturday and Fisk 63-41 on Monday. The Gold Nuggets are 4-2 and tied
for third place in the GCAC, one game behind leaders SUNO and Talladega. SUNO
collected its most points of the season, 11, in the new poll and ranks 30th.
Xavier will visit GCAC and city rival Dillard at 5 p.m. Saturday
and Mobile at 5:30 p.m. Monday. The next poll will be released Jan. 22.
