The Jays returned to Omaha after five days on the road, took Sunday off, then got back to work at the Championship Center on Monday to prepare for their last leg of a three-game road stretch against a Xavier team that has now lost six games in a row and eight of their last 10 in Big East play.
Everyone was a full participant in practice on Monday and Tuesday except for freshman point guard Marcus Zegarowski, who remained in a hard cast after suffering a broken bone in his hand in the first meeting with Xavier back on February 3.
