HAWKINS, Texas — Xavier University of Louisiana defeated Jarvis Christian 75-59 Saturday to stretch its women's basketball winning streak to 10 games.
        The streak is the longest for the Gold Nuggets (16-5 overall, 11-1 Red River Athletic Conference) since winning 12 in a row during the 2012-13 season. The 1997-98 Gold Nuggets won a school-record 22 in a row.
        It's the 14th time the XULA women have won at least 10 in a row. Seven of those streaks occurred during current head coach Bo Browder's 23 seasons.
        XULA earned six of the victories in the current streak on the road. Six of the victories were by double digits, including the last four.
        XULA remained a half-game behind RRAC leader Our Lady of the Lake, a winner at home against LSU-Alexandria.
        The Gold Nuggets will be home Monday to play RRAC opponent Louisiana Christian at 5:30 p.m. in the Convocation Center. It'll be a doubleheader, with the XULA and LC men playing at 7:30 p.m.
