Xavier heads into Elite 8 showdown with UCLA
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.
