Xavier improves to 3-0 in league
Freshman point guard Semaj Christon's 19 point and 10 assist game was good enough to propel Xavier to a 66-64 win on the road against Saint Bonaventure on Wednesday night, moving the Musketeers to 3-0 in the Atlantic 10 Conference.
Christon's final shot, an and-one floater with 4.8 seconds remaining, was the final basket of the game, breaking a tie game after SBU's Yassou Ndoye had tied the game with a free throw.

The Musketeers will be back in action on Saturday, as they try and remain undefeated in the league with a home game at the Cintas Center against visiting LaSalle.
