"There's only one thing to say here, and that's, "Go X!'" Boehner said. "Best of luck to the Muskies as they take on Georgetown tonight for a Big East win on the road."

Boehner welcomed the Xavier University Men's Basketball Team to his office in the U.S. Capitol ahead of the team's face-off against the Georgetown Hoyas at the Verizon Center in Washington, DC.

After graduating high school from Cincinnati's Moeller High School in 1968, Boehner worked several jobs to pay his way through Xavier University. While working as a night janitor he met Debbie -- now his wife of 40 years -- and in 1977 earned his bachelor's degree in business. John and Debbie still live in West Chester today.
