Rush to sponsor Warm Hands, Warm Hearts on Nov. 11

Nov. 11 at XU: Warm Hands, Warm Hearts

NEW ORLEANS — The Xavier University of Louisiana men’s basketball program once again will demonstrate its support of the local community with its newly established Warm Hands, Warm Hearts program.

With winter quickly approaching, Warm Hands, Warm Hearts is designed to provide warm clothing to the homeless. At the Xavier-Loyola men's basketball game on Nov. 11 (next Tuesday) at XU's Convocation Center, fans can donate scarves, hats and gloves in exchange for free admission. Tip-off will be 7 p.m.

"Come out and cheer for the Gold Rush against Loyola while warming the hearts of fellow citizens in need," XU coach Dannton Jackson said.

Xavier will play twice at home before then: 6 p.m. Thursday against Albany State and 7 p.m. Saturday against Miles. The Gold Rush are 3-0 and ranked 13th in NAIA Division I.
