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 drop 5 places, rank 17th in postseason poll
|
March 27, 2013
NEW ORLEANS — Xavier University of Louisiana
dropped five spots to finish 17th Wednesday in the NAIA Division I Women's Basketball
Coaches' Top 25 Postseason Poll.
It's the lowest rank of the season for the Gold
Nuggets (24-6), who closed the regular season with 12 consecutive victories
before losing to Fisk in the quarterfinals of the Gulf Coast Athletic
Conference Tournament and to Faulkner in the opening round of the NAIA
Division I National Championship. Xavier was 11th in the preseason poll and
spent six weeks in the top 10, including highs of ninth place on Dec. 11
and Jan. 8. The Nuggets were 10th on Feb. 26.
This is the fourth consecutive year and the 10th time
in Bo Browder's 14 seasons as head coach that the Gold Nuggets are in the
final top 25 of the season. This is the second consecutive year that the
final poll was conducted after the national tournament. Xavier was 16th
in the 2012 postseason poll.
Xavier will enter the 2013-14 season trying to extend a
streak of 44 consecutive top-25 appearances. That streak began on Jan. 25,
2010.
