Xavier Musketeers Look to Rebound Against Morgan State at Home
The Musketeers aim to regain momentum following recent struggles as they prepare for a challenging December schedule.
- Xavier Musketeers, with a 7-2 record, host Morgan State (5-7) at the Cintas Center on Tuesday in their final game before facing rival Cincinnati on Saturday.
- The Musketeers have struggled recently, dropping two of their last three games, including a narrow 71-68 win over South Carolina State and a 76-72 loss to TCU.
- Xavier's bench production has been underwhelming, with Toledo transfer Dante Maddox Jr. showing signs of improvement but averaging just 4.7 points per game.
- Morgan State has yet to win a road game this season, going 0-5, and relies heavily on leading scorer Wynston Tabbs, who averages 16.8 points per game.
- Xavier is favored to win and will seek a dominant performance to build confidence and improve efficiency metrics ahead of their rivalry matchup and upcoming games against ranked opponents.
