Coaches Comments: Xavier is a game changer. He has tremendous speed and elusiveness & is a very versatile player. He can rush between the tackles or to the outside & is a great asset in the passing game. Defensively he became a lockdown corner & is also a great tackler. Xavier is involved heavily in our return game & is a threat to score any time he touches the ball. He has elite speed. He won the D4 2AA 100m dash in his first year running track in 2022 & then finished 10th in the 2023 indoor state meet (all classifications) in the 60m dash. He will be the X factor on the MCA offense in the 2023 season.
