Xavier visits the Butler Bulldogs after Desmond Claude scored 36 points in the Musketeers' 98-93 victory against the Georgetown Hoyas

MARCH 5, 2024 • Associated Press

Goes off on the road Claude logged 36 points (13-20 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 10-13 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal across his 38 minutes during Xavier's 98-93 win Saturday at Georgetown.

Impact Across the last month's worth of Xavier's away games, Claude struggled scoring-wise, averaging fewer than 10.0 points while shooting an abysmal 27.3 percent from the field. However, he began March with a bang, surpassing 30 points for the first time and establishing his new high in the category. Playing well in regular-season away games is good practice before tournament games, which are expected to take place soon for everyone, including Claude and Xavier.
