    THE TOTAL PERSON GRADUATING EVERY MEN’S BASKETBALL SENIOR SINCE 1986 Xavier University has earned a reputation for student-athlete academic success. Every senior student-athlete in the men’s basketball program, including Matt Stainbrook (seen here at his graduation with Xavier University President Michael J. Graham, S.J.), has graduated for the last 30 school years. That streak began in the 1985-86 school year. Xavier makes a promise to each student it recruits. That’s a promise XU keeps and celebrates every May at graduation. 4 PLAYERS WHO COMPLETED THEIR % THAT XAVIER’S GRADUATION STREAK ELIGIBILITY GRADUATED 1986 6 100% 1987 NO SENIORS 1988 4 100% 1989 2 100% 1990 4 100% 1991 3 100% 1992 NO SENIORS 1993 6 100% 1994 4 100% 1995 5 100% 1996 1 100% 1997 4 100% 1998 4 100% 1999 4 100% 2000 1 100% 2001 3 100% 2002 3 100% 2003 3 100% 2004 3 100% 2005 1 100% 2006 5 100% 2007 4 100% 2008 3 100% 2009 3 100% 2010 1 100% 2011 6 100% 2012 5 100% 2013 3 100% 2014 3 100% 2015 2 100% SINCE 1986 96 100% SISTER ROSE ANN FLEMING XAVIER ATHLETIC HALL OF FAMER Since she became Xavier’s academic advisor in 1985, Sr. Rose Ann Fleming (seen here with 2010 graduate Jason Love) has helped every men’s basketball player who has reached his final year of athletic eligibility to graduate.
