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)

2007 Recap:
The Gold Nuggets won the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference team championship for the second consecutive year and finished fourth out
of 11 teams in the NAIA Region XIII Championships. The Nuggets were ranked eighth in the region entering the meet but
beat four schools ranked ahead of them — Brenau, Spring Hill, Reinhardt and Southern Wesleyan
— at the regional meet.
Rankings:
Xavier received a school-record 14 points in the preseason NAIA national poll announced August 19
and was 32nd among the 44 schools which received votes. But since then the Nuggets received
one point, and it came in the September 16 poll. The Nuggets are second in the GCAC rankings of September 29
after being No. 1 in the preseason and in the first three regular-season rankings. Belhaven's finish
ahead of Xavier in the Rhodes Invitational moved the Nuggets down.
Harding Has It:
Junior Ebony Harding has two years of eligibility of remaining but ranks with
Katrina Davis among the Nuggets' most celebrated harriers. Harding was the
GCAC runner-up in 2006 and 2007 and is the only Xavier runner, male
or female, to make the All-Louisiana team twice. Harding was on the All-NAIA Region XIII
second team in 2006 and 2007.
