  • Keonte Kennedy, the 6-foot-4 shooting guard from Westlake (TX) High School, committed to Xavier on Tuesday following his official visit Sept. 29.

    Kennedy chose Xavier over Memphis, Michigan, Nebraska, Texas Tech, and VCU.

    “I’m proud to announce I will continue my academic and basketball career at Xavier University,” said Kennedy via Twitter. “I am a Xavier Musketeer ?⚔.”

    “It was easy,” Kennedy told D1VISION. “It’s a great program. The coaching staff is outstanding, the players are good people, and the opportunity to go play immediately was the best. Their success speaks for itself. Six out of the last 10 years they went to the Sweet Sixteen. I love winners.”

    Isaiah Mucius, the 6-foot-8, 190-pound small forward from Brewster (NH) Academy and the PSA Cardinals, took his first official visit to Xavier this past weekend along with fellow Class of 2018 standouts David McCormack and Noah Locke.

    “Yeah, me, Noah and David hung out a good majority of our visit,” Mucius said Monday. “It was my first time on Xavier’s campus so everything was new to me.”

    Xavier sees Mucius as a logical fit to help replace some departing stars.

    “Their message was with JP Macura and Trevon Bluiett leaving, it was an opportunity for me to step in and play right away,” he said.

    Matt Mucius, the player’s father, also made the trip.
