Xavier Musketeers
Xavier suffered another defeat at home, falling to St. John's and dropping to 1-4 in the Big East this season.

The team's offensive and defensive statistics for the season indicate room for improvement, with strengths in free throw shooting and three-point shooting offset by weaknesses in rebounding and defense. Key players contributing to Xavier's efforts this year include Ryan Conwell, Dayvion McKnight, and others.
