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)

Results (PDF file)
BATON ROUGE, La. — Xavier University of
Louisiana's Devinn Rolland and Catherine Fakler produced two of the Gold
Nuggets' best performances of the season in the LSU Alumni Gold track and
field meet Saturday.
Rolland, in the B-section of the women's 200-meter run,
placed sixth out of 22 runners in 24.66 seconds and finished ahead of 15 runners
from NCAA Division I. It was the fourth time this season that Rolland met the
A-standard for the NAIA National Championships in this event, and it was her
second fastest time this season.
Fakler recorded the Gold Nuggets' fastest time of the
season in the women's 1,500-meter run, 4:43.92. She placed fourth out of 15
runners in the B-section of that event and finished ahead of 10 NCAA D-I runners.
But Fakler missed qualifying for the nationals by less than 1½ seconds. The
NAIA's B-standard is 4:42.50, and the A-standard is 4:40.10.
Rolland and Fakler were the Nuggets' lone competitors.
The only entrant for the Gold Rush was Christopher Kennie, who finished eighth
in the long jump at 6.57 meters (21 feet, 6¾ inches).
This was the final meet of the outdoor season for the
XU men, but Rolland and other qualified teammates will compete at the NAIA
national meet May 23-25 at Marion. Ind. The Golden Eagle Classic, listed on
XU's schedule as an April 27 meet, was canceled because of resurfacing at
that facility.
