Thirteen days ago, Xavier was just wrapping up a dramatic victory over Providence. The Muskies were dead and buried with just over a minute left in the game, but a clutch effort from the whole team culminated in a game-wimning three from Colby Jones to give the Muskies the win that took them over .500 in league play.
At that point, the team was on its way to answering a lot of questions. Ben Stanley had just been lost for the year through injury, but Colby Jones has led the team in scoring against St. John's before being the hero against Ed Cooley's boys.
