Xavier doesn't head out west for the Continental Tire Las Vegas Invitational for a couple more weeks, but the competition officially begins Monday.
The No. 17 Musketeers (1-0) host the Rider University Broncs in an on-campus portion of the Las Vegas competition Monday at Cintas Center (8:30 p.m.).
Xavier's coming off an overwhelming, 52-point victory against Morehead State. It was a game that allowed Xavier to showcase its talent against a smaller, less-skilled program in the midst of a transition period
It was a great night to boost confidence and show Xavier fans a good time.
