Below are the minimum performance standards that Xavier University of Louisiana believes are necessary to be competitive at the NAIA level. These standards are guidelines, not absolute requirements, and exceptions may be made at the discretion of the head coach. Achieving any of these standards does not guarantee a roster spot on the team. Other factors that Xavier considers include, but are not limited to:
  • Academic performance
  • Team need
  • Potential for development and improvement
Competition for women’s cross country and track & field athletic scholarships is high. The awarding of these scholarships is considered on a case-by-case basis.
