University of Detroit Mercy rehires XU trainer Joe Fawcett



NEW ORLEANS — Xavier University of Louisiana seeks to hire an athletic trainer after Joe Fawcett, a staff member since June 2014, left XU this past week to return to the University of Detroit Mercy.

UDM hired Fawcett as assistant director of sports medicine. He began his duties there Monday.

Fawcett was a graduate assistant trainer at UDM for two years and earned a master's degree from that school in 2014. He is a native of Zanesville, Ohio.

At Xavier, Fawcett was the primary sports medicine contact for men's basketball and men's and women's cross country and track and field. He assisted with the other teams as needed.

Jason Horn, Xavier's director of athletics and recreation, said the university will hire a new trainer as soon as possible. That person will join Xavier's other full-time trainer, Allie Wood.

The XU trainer positions are part of the partnership between Xavier Athletics and Ochsner Health System's sports medicine division.
