The Johnnies (7-8, 0-2) will host Xavier at Carnesecca Arena on Wednesday night.
After two straight losses to open up Big East Conference play, the Johnnies will be facing another stiff test on Wednesday at Carnesecca Arena against the 10th ranked Xavier Musketeers. Xavier (13-1, 1-1) was thrashed by Villanova on New Year's Eve but bounced back versus a solid Butler team, winning by 19 at the Cintas Center.
For more insight into one of the stronger teams in the Big East, we spoke with Caleb Childers of Banners on the Parkway (Xavier's SB Nation Blog).
