Xavier’s magical season comes to an end

Sunday, March 30th, 2008

From the opening game against Southeast Missouri State and throughout the season, it’s been a magical run for the Xavier Musketeers. Sean Miller led Xavier to a #3 seed and the Elite 8 this season before the #1 UCLA Bruins finally ended the Musketeers’ season last night 76-57 in the West Regional Final. Xavier was led by 6 players who averaged 9.7 points per game or more with Josh Duncan’s 12.4 ppg setting the standard for the Musketeers.

Xavier ends the season at 30-7 as Miller has guided Xavier to a 93-39 record in four seasons as head coach. As a result, Xavier clothing & apparel has become a popular-seller online and DFN Sports sites are happy to provide fans with Xavier merchandise & college sports apparel.

All season we have heard about how good the Xavier Musketeers are. Now we’re finally getting to see just how good Sean Miller’s team is on the largest of stages. #3 Xavier defeated #7 West Virginia last night in overtime 79-75 as the Musketeers showed the patience and resiliency needed to pull out the “W.” While Xavier apparel has been hot all season, it’s even hotter now as the Musketeers look to make their first-ever Final Four.

Next up for the Musketeers will be the #1 seed UCLA Bruins who come off a 88-78 win over #12 Western Kentucky. The two will face off on Saturday at 6:40 pm.
