Xavier stays hot, blows out Morehead State for sixth straight win ahead of Big East play

Any concerns regarding a trap game that was sandwiched between the Crosstown Shootout and Saturday's Big East Conference opener were dispelled early on Wednesday night at Cintas Center.

Xavier steamrolled Morehead State, 86-63, for its sixth consecutive win in a game that felt like it was over in the blink of an eye when the Musketeers closed the first half on a 20-4 run, running to the locker room with a 47-19 lead.

It was the third game in a row that Xavier's scored more than 80 points and held its opponent under 64 points.
