Hilbert College Athletics

Xavier Major earned his first Hawk of the Week honor after hustling his way to the basketball both on offense and defense.

The senior forward from Rochester averaged 10.5 rebounds, chipped in six points and 2.5 steals per game as he helped Hilbert remain perfect in AMCC play at 2-0, lifting them to 7-1 overall.

Major gave the Hawks 30 minutes of effort scoring only two points in the big cross-town victory at Medaille mid-week.  He cleared the glass with 10 rebounds and grabbed one steal in the road win.  Major followed that performance with a perfect 4-for-4 shooting touch from inside the lane along with 11 rebounds (five offensive) and four steals (two assists) in the lop-sided 101-58 victory over Mt. Aloysius.
