Snow won’t stop the show from going on at 2 p.m. Saturday at sold-out Cintas Center, where No. 5 Xavier will attempt to bounce back from the Georgetown loss in another Big East clash against Seton Hall.
While other games were postponed until Sunday, like No. 4 Villanova against No. 16 Providence at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, the winter storm isn’t expected to be as severe in this corner of Ohio. The Pirates (13-5, 3-3 Big East) also traveled early to avoid weather complications.
For Xavier (16-2, 4-2), the game offers a shot at redemption after its season-first home defeat.
