Xavier has pulled a 1 seed in the West regional; their opponents will be either Texas Southern or NC Central, both of whom got here by an automatic bid out of the SWAC and MEAC, respectively. Xavier announced late again, but there was no suspense this year.
Neither team boasts a win in the top half of D1. Texas Southern's best win is Prairie View A&M, while NCC's is Hampton.
Xavier’s first round game will be played on Friday in Nashville, TN, and we’ll let you know as soon as the tip times are announced.
