Rutgers University Athletics

Why Rutgers? "I chose Rutgers to further my academic and athletic career because of the majors available, how close it is to home and the coaches' attitude about the game of baseball."
 
Head Coach Steve Owens: "Xavier is an excellent defensive outfielder with a good throwing arm. With his strong build, we project him more as a corner outfielder with an advanced swing."
