The Xavier University men's basketball team will welcome the Wisconsin Badgers to Cintas Center in the 2018 Gavitt Games in a rematch of last season's game won 80-70 by the Musketeers in Madison, according to a report from Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports and FanRag Sports Network.
Official dates and times are still yet to be determined, according to the report, and a national title game rematch between Villanova and Michigan also is among matchups. It would be the first time Xavier hosts a game as part of the Gavitt Games series.
Professional golfer Steve Stricker blasted Xavier and then-head coach Chris Mack after the meeting last November between the teams.
