Zach Hankins and Tyrique Jones were enormous last night. Not just in physical stature, which mattered, but in their play. Xavier’s two most efficient players not named Ryan Welage carried the team to a win that seemed to revitalize the team. In a combined 59 minutes of play, Xavier’s bigs put up a line of 42/20/4 on 15-23 from the floor and 12-14 from the line. It was a two man virtuoso performance that brought Xavier back from the brink of what seemed a sure loss. What is next to be seen is if the season can be rescued the same way.
Can Xavier go forward with the double post?
