Xavier head coach Travis Steele called Saturday night's buzzer-beating loss to Butler "gut-wrenching." Cincinnati Enquirer
NEW YORK – The most pressing question facing Xavier’s men’s basketball team this week at the Big East Conference Tournament and beyond is how will the Musketeers respond after back-to-back brutal losses in the closing minute against Providence and Butler.
