Xavier's Loaded Return Season | Xavier Musketeers Basketball News

Xavier’s basketball team is firing on all cylinders as they prep for their second season under coach Richard Pitino, bolstered by key offseason additions: familiar face Braden Appelhans, who knows Pitino’s system well, and big man Nikos Chitikoudis, a defensive and rebounding force. The squad kicks off the season with a meaningful preseason tournament — the CareSource Invitational — where they’ll face Dayton and other top regional teams while raising funds for mental health awareness. Their non-conference slate includes a road trip to West Virginia to battle Mississippi State and a high-stakes Thanksgiving trip to the Bahamas for the Battle 4 Atlantis, where they’ll square off against Marquette, Texas A&M, and Virginia. Meanwhile, fan favorite Filip Borovicanin is back in the fold after a court ruling granted him a fifth year of eligibility under the NCAA’s new rule — though legal challenges may still loom. With Borovicanin’s scoring, rebounding, and playmaking, Xavier’s roster is suddenly even more dangerous — and the season’s biggest story may be the legal drama surrounding his return.
