The last time
Arizona senior Mark Lyons started his collegiately career at Xavier before moving to Tucson.
In 2010, Xavier came to EnergySolutions for the NCAA Tournament and, in the Sweet 16, played Kansas State.
In a memorable battle, K-State needed double overtime to score a 101-96 victory over the Musketeers.

"I just remember the intensity of the game," Lyons said. "It seems like every shot was a big shot and every possession meant the game. ... It was a great game."
Tweet, tweet, tweet
We’re living in a digital age.
So when Pitt senior guard Tray Woodall stepped up to the podium to field questions from the press Wednesday afternoon, he grabbed his placard and asked for a pen.
Once he was done writing, he placed his placard back right where it came from.
But there was one quirk — he had written his Twitter account, @TrayWoodall1, in a playful ploy for the press to follow him.
There were laughs from various reporters after Woodall placed the placard back in its appropriate place.
Secret of life?
Gonzaga alumnus John Stockton is careful not to become an overwhelming presence around the program, but he’ll offer advice when asked.
