Ryan Kalkbrenner wins fourth Big East Defensive Player of the Year award
12 points vs. Friars Hunter finished Saturday's 76-68 win over Providence with 12 points (4-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and one steal across 20 minutes.
Impact Hunter tied his best scoring performance of the new year, even as he only logged 20 minutes off the bench. The senior forward has been a consistent rotator off the bench so far this season, even in closer Musketeers wins. He should continue to stay involved at home against a tough Marquette team this Thursday.

Freemantle scores 25 as Xavier takes down Providence 76-68

Led by Zach Freemantle's 25 points, the Xavier Musketeers defeated the Providence Friars 76-68
MARCH 8 • Associated Press
Season-high 15 points in start Hunter totaled 15 points (6-8 FG, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, one assist and two steals across 31 minutes during Saturday's 72-70 loss to Marquette.
Impact With big man Zach Freemantle sidelined for multiple weeks, Hunter has had to step up as a start for the Musketeers. Although Xavier didn't get the desired outcome against the Golden Eagles, the 6-foot-8 forward put together a season-high 15 points. He should continue to fill in for Freemantle and be relied on as a rebounder and scorer moving forward.
DECEMBER 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Contributes 10 points vs. Gamecocks Hunter contributed 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one block and one steal in 23 minutes during Monday's 75-66 win over South Carolina.
Impact Hunter has been the main sixth-man for Xavier so far this season, and he matched his season-high 10 points against the Gamecocks in his highest minutes of the season. The senior forward has found a consistent spot on the rotation at this point in the season, and his spark off the bench has made him a solid figure for the Musketeers which should continue against tougher opponents.
NOVEMBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Finally available, scores 10 Hunter (Achilles) logged 10 points (4-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT) and two rebounds across 13 minutes during Xavier's exhibition game Sunday at Dayton.
Impact Hunter sat out Xavier's 2023-24 season due to a medical problem that was never disclosed. The campaign included an Achilles injury he underwent surgery for not much later. But even with obstacles in his path, Hunter has recovered from both to be available for the beginning of Xavier's 2024-25 season. Before his multiple ailments, he was a prominent part of the Musketeers' rotation. Scoring 10 for their game Sunday is at least a decent indicator he can match his previous role, which may be more obtainable now that Lassina Traore (knee) will sit out the 2024-25 season.
OCTOBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Nearing full return Hunter (Achilles) will be fully cleared for all basketball related activities on Sept. 24, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.
Impact Hunter, who missed the entire 2023-24 season as the result of cardiac issues and an Achilles surgery, will return to a full practice workload in a couple weeks. The 6-foot-8 senior most recently appeared with the Musketeers during the 2022-23 season, averaging 7.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.3 assists on 20.9 minutes per game (37 games). Hunter's status will continue to be monitored heading into the season, but this is a great sign for the senior forward.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Cleared for non-contact work Hunter (Achilles) is cleared for non-contact work, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.
Impact Around this time last year, Hunter suffered a cardiac problem that rendered him out for Xavier's 2023-24 season. During it, he also underwent Achilles surgery, which has prolonged his physical health from being 100 percent. But according to Xavier's head coach Sean Miller, Hunter being cleared for non-contact work has resulted in him being hopeful of full contact by the fall. By getting to that stage of his physical recovery this coming autumn, he would be ready for Xavier's 2024-25 season.

Hot start to tourney Hunter contributed 14 points (6-10 FG, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 27 minutes during Sunday's 84-73 win over Pittsburgh.
Impact Hunter continues to do his best job filling in for Zach Freemantle (foot), and the senior forward has been particularly effective in postseason play. He scored a career-high 24 points in Xavier's NCAA Tournament opener against Kennesaw State, and followed that up with another noteworthy effort two days later. Hunter is also averaging 6.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists over his last four games while shooting 59.5 percent from the field and 90.9 percent from the charity swipe. While Freemantle can never truly be replaced, Hunter's efforts have been pivotal in the team's Sweet 16 berth.

Remains effective as a starter Hunter registered 14 points (5-6 FG, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 64-63 loss to Villanova.
Impact Hunter, who entered Tuesday's contest with a minor ankle concern, ultimately started once again and showed no signs of limitations. The 6-foot-8 senior has now posted double-digit scoring figures in four out of his last five outings.
FEBRUARY 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Good to go Tuesday Hunter (ankle) is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against Villanova, Adam Baum of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact As expected, Hunter is available Tuesday night versus the Wildcats after rolling his ankle this past weekend. The 6-foot-8 senior is currently averaging 6.8 points and 4.1 rebounds per game across 27 appearances this season.
FEBRUARY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Probable vs. Villanova Hunter is probable before Xavier's game Tuesday versus Villanova, according to Adam Baum of The Cincinnati Enquirer.
Impact Hunter "rolled his ankle" when Xavier hosted DePaul on Saturday. However, Xavier's head coach Sean Miller said he expects the senior available Tuesday.
FEBRUARY 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Average in loss Hunter recorded 10 points (3-5 FG, 4-4 FT), five rebounds and three assists in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 69-68 loss to Marquette.
Impact Hunter was solid, but on a night where Xavier was shorthanded, someone needed to step up. Nonetheless, Hunter has been an admirable fill-in for Zach Freemantle (foot), averaging 9.3 points per game on 55.9 percent shooting over his last 10 games.

Plays a lot, logs eight rebounds Hunter logged nine points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-8 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one block across 36 minutes during Xavier's 85-83 win Wednesday versus Providence.
Impact Hunter is expected to log many minutes and rebounds as the power forward of Xavier's starting frontcourt (also including Colby Jones and Jack Nunge) while Zach Freemantle indefinitely recovers from his foot injury.
FEBRUARY 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Draws start Wednesday Hunter will start in place of the injured Zach Freemantle as Xavier hosts Providence, per Adam Baum of The Cincinnati Enquirer.
Impact With Zach Freemantle out of the starting five with an injury, Hunter will get his first start of the season. He's been a valuable bench player, and his minutes have started to increase as the season has worn on. Hunter is averaging 6.1 points and 3.1 rebounds across 14.6 minutes.

No. 13 Xavier shows fight, road toughness in win over UConn
Scores 15 points Hunter logged 15 points (3-4 FG, 9-9 FT) and five rebounds across 20 minutes during Xavier's 83-73 win Saturday versus Connecticut.
Impact Hunter was a valued scorer across Xavier's last three games of 2022. He averaged 11.3 points during the multi-matchup span. Despite continuing to be a backup of Zach Freemantle, Hunter will begin his 2023 as an undervalued option fantasy managers should consider using.
JANUARY 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Will come off the bench Hunter will come off the bench for the Musketeers on Wednesday as they take on Providence, Adam Baum of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact Hunter will come off the bench for the first time this season as Jack Nunge, Xavier's leading scorer, will make his second start of the year. The 6-foot-8 junior has put up 6.4 points, 4.1 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 0.9 steals on 21.4 minutes per game this season. Hunter figures to remain heavily involved as the Musketeers try out a new starting unit.
