OMAHA, Nebraska – Xavier's had its share of comeback attempts this season, and most fell short. Certainly, the games on the grandest stages and against ranked foes all ended in defeat.
Against the No. 22-ranked University of Creighton Bluejays, things finally went Xavier's way.
The Musketeers stormed back in the second half of Saturday afternoon's game at CenturyLink Center Omaha, swapped wild miscues with the hosts over the closing minutes and seconds, and ultimately hung on for an 82-80 upset before a sellout crowd of 17,886.
