The Muskies won the opener! Edmund Sumner, JP Macura, and Jalen Reynolds led the charge. Remember all, that was Sumner's first collegiate start (and he's a Redshirt Freshmen after taking a medical redshirt last year) so he led Xavier in scoring in his first full game!

Another smooth game for X and another win! Philmore had a sore wrist and didn't play but this team looks very DEEP this year. Farr and Reynolds each grab 11 rebounds off the bench, Farr getting a double-double in just 16 minutes!

Well done Muskies! Next up, a home game versus lowly Abilene Christ...
