Lamar won at Ragin Cajuns today 74-45. Cajuns not good this year. Next at Southern Mississippi then Texas Tech. Looking forward to see how we play these two games on the road to see if some real improvement has been made.

Not only a win but a 32 point win on the road in conference. Also, second straight conference win on the road to open conference play. Call me shocked to say the least.

Well no posts since September. Had a decent season. Were beaten soundly on the road by two excellent teams. Most of the other games were very tight games win or lose. Final record was 7-5

Quickly heading for another 20 loss season. There are some other really bad teams in Southland though.

Next game is on the road at #7 Central Arkansas. Lamar has actually played very poorly against two inferior opponents and quite well against two tougher opponents. So I guess soon we will see.

Agree. Went from 6-2 to 34-8 and 41-16. Took foot off pedal too soon and nearly paid for it.

Yes, for sure the bats need to keep rolling. I don't know if either McNeese or Nicholls has one of their better pitchers "stashed" back to pitch in these games. Not sure either how we will go about using our staff. These tournament series often end up in a game similar to last night when all the pitching has been used up. Reminds me of game 5 of the 2017 World Series when Houston beat Los Angeles 13-12 in ten innings.

just wanted to save an inning...oh well I hope we have enough now.

hoping for the 10 run rule now currently 17-9

woo hoo grand salami

not greedy just survival...can use all the runs we can get.

Lamar not messing around with UIW in early innings jumps to a 6-0 lead in top of first.

Winner of this game will then need to beat McNeese twice to reach the championship game.

Are they going back to that format? When? It is a better format in that it rewards the two highest seeds during the season with home field advantage during the first week and then the top remaining seed gets it for the championship game. This year SE LA is the team with the biggest benefit because the entire tournament was scheduled for their home diamond.

I was fretting at the early lost opportunities...we had 5 hits and 6 walks but only 2 runs at that point. Then I was hoping the pitching was going to hold up but it didn't either. So yes now it would take 5 straight victories to win the tournament.
