BIG EaST TEaMS: Sophomore Semaj Christon averaged 18.7 points, 2.9 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.5 steals and shot 50.9 percent from the field in Big EASt Confer- ence regular season play and followed that up with a combined 36 points and 11 assists in two Big EASt tournament games that earned him a spot on the all-tournament team. Junior Justin Martin raised his scoring and rebounding averages from 7.6 ppg. and 4.2 rpg. in non-conference action to 14.2 ppg. and 5.9 rpg. in Big EASt regular season action and followed that up with a team- high 19 points in his Big EASt tournament debut vs. Marquette on March 13 and 12 vs. Creighton on March 14.

PaSSING FaNCy: Xavier, fourth in the Big EASt Conference in assists at 14.6 apg., had two players with over 100 assists for the first time since the 2009-10 season. Junior Dee Davis (149; fifth-highest total ever for an Xu junior) and sophomore Semaj Christon (142; third-highest total ever for an Xu sophomore) had over 100 assists each. Tu holloway (138) and Jordan Crawford (101) were the last Xu duo to accomplish that (2009-10).
ShaRE aND ShaRE aLIKE: Xavier was fourth in the Big EASt Conference in assists at 14.6 apg. that’s one reason that Xavier hit 47.0 percent from the field (second in the Big EASt). Xavier recorded an assist on 57.2 percent of its field goals. By comparison, Xu recorded an assist on 48.2 percent of its field goals made in the 2012-13 season. Xavier had two players among the assist leaders in the Big EASt: junior Dee Davis (second at 4.7 apg.) and sophomore Semaj Christon (sixth at 4.2 apg.). Junior center Matt Stainbrook was third on the team in assists at 2.2 apg.
DEE-FENSE WaS a BIG KEy TO VICTORy: Xavier held Creighton to 69 points and 39.0 percent shooting from the field (29.4 percent from 3-point range) on March 1, well below their league-leading averages at the time of 80.2 ppg. and 49.5 percent (42.1 percent from 3-point territory). Many of Xavier’s other big wins in the 2013-14 season were due in great part to strong defense, including the 65-53 win at St. John’s on Feb. 25, the 59-53 win on Feb. 8 over Providence and the 64-50 win at Butler on Feb. 11. Those three opponent point totals were among the five lowest by a Xavier opponent the entire season. the 50 points scored by Butler were second only to the lowest total of 47 points scored by Cincinna- ti in Xu’s 64-47 win on Dec. 14. the lowest opponent point totals for a half in the 2013- 14 season also came in Xavier victories: 20 points for a first half by tennessee in Xu’s 67-63 win on Nov. 12 and 21 second-half points by Providence in Xu’s 59-53 victory on Feb. 8.
COMEBaCK KIDS: Xavier erased a 17-point second-half deficit with under 15 minutes to play against georgetown on Jan. 15, winning 80-67 at Cintas Center. that is the largest deficit overcome by a Xavier team since All- American Tu holloway led a remarkable Xu comeback from 19 points down with under 11 minutes left in a 66-63 win over Purdue at Cintas Center (12-3-11). Xu’s largest margin overcome on the road in the 2013-14 season was a 12-point second-half deficit at Alabama.
DEFENSE KEyED ThE RuNS: There were numerous runs this past season that were fueled by defense, including the 22-2 run on Feb. 11 at Butler over the last minute of the first half and the first eight minutes of the second half (a run that started with a 13-0 spurt). Xavier outscored georgetown 16-0 over the final six minutes of action in its 80-67 win on Jan. 15. Xavier outscored Cincinnati 24-6 over an 11-minute stretch of the first half and never looked back in a decisive 17-point win on Dec. 14. Xavier held Alabama without a field goal for over nine minutes late in the game on Dec. 21 at uA, helping Xu erase a 12-point second half deficit and record the win. Xavier outscored Wake Forest 20-3 over the final 9:29 of the first half and did not allow a Wake field goal during that time in the Dec. 28 blowout win. that 20-3 stretch included a 16-0 Xu run. then on Dec. 31 in Xavier’s Big EASt opener, Xu put together a 15-0 run against St. John’s to turn a 29-25 deficit into a 40-29 lead (2-0 over final minute of first half and 13-0 over the first five minutes of the second half). Xu held SJu to 25 percent shooting from the field in the second half. Xu held St. John’s to 32.3 percent second-half shooting at MSg on Feb. 25, including carving out a 10-1 run.
GO DEEP: Xavier had only seven players average 9.0 minutes or more per game in the 2012-13 season. Xavier had nine players average over 12 minutes per game in the 2013-14 season, including four first-year players (junior Matt Stainbrook and freshmen Myles Davis, Brandon Randolph and Jalen Reynolds). No returning player better exemplified that improved depth more than sophomore James Farr. Farr played only 42 minutes the entire season as a freshman. As a sophomore in the 2013-14 season he averaged 12.4 minutes a game, averaging 3.9 rpg. and 4.6 ppg., while shooting 51.6 percent from the field.
IF IT’S FREE IT’S FOR ME: Xavier’s free throw shooting greatly improved vs. Big EASt Conference teams. Xavier shot 63.6 percent in regular season non-conference play and raised its percentage to 68.8 percent overall for the entire season. One of the best examples of that improvement was sophomore Semaj Christon, who took 235 free throw attempts, which was 99 more than the next closest Musketeer (136 by senior Isaiah Philmore). Christon, who shot 66.8 percent for the season, raised his free throw percentage from 58.9 percent in non- conference action.

March 13 at Madison Square garden and became the 51st member of Xavier’s 1,000 Point Club. there is only one other player in Xavier history that has reached 1,000 points as a sophomore, all-time leading scorer Byron Larkin.

the new NCAA graduation Success rate (gSr) for student-athletes in Division i athletics was released in October. Xavier has upheld its strong academic tradition among its student-athletes by posting a score of 97 percent, which places it tied for 12th in the nation and in the top spot in the new Big EASt. the gSr was developed as a more accurate way to track the academic success of student-athletes. using a six-year time frame, the gSr measures graduation rates of student-athletes. transfer students are included in the calculation of the gSr. if a student-athlete transfers from an institution in good academic standing, then the transfers are merely passed on to the new institution. Ten current Xavier teams posted a GSR score of 100 percent, including men’s basketball.
