Xavier 83 Cincinnati 63

Final from the Cintas Center. 

Jack Nunge led all scorers with 31 for X.  Paul Scruggs added 14 and Adam Kunkel 12.

X pretty much dominated this game.

This one looked like it could get beyond chippy in the first few minutes, but the officials did a good job of keeping that under control.  From then on out, X just proved to be the superior team.

Wes Miller is going to be great, but his roster is not good at all right now.  Going to be duct-tape and chicken-wire for this year, but next year should start a steady climb and by year #3 I'd bet they are equal to or better than Xavier.  

That said, 2021-22 should be Trav's best chance at making the dance and sticking around for a few songs.

I agree on the Refs, I thought they took command of the game and were consistent.
