I have 2 GA outfield tickets. If anyone wants to see a game, DM me because I rarely have time to attend. Only games taken so far are Southern Miss, a friends daughter is on the roster.
I’m hoping the ladies take a huge step forward this year. WIN THE DAY!

same. I think this Tulsa game could be a big indicator for how our team performs in 2026. Looking forward to seeing how they do. Only 40 minutes or so until Game time! Geaux Cajuns!

Of course the JSU-Tulsa game is in the 8th
I think we’re gonna be here a while 
I know we all wanna see the Cajuns in action, but I think the longer this game goes on, the more of an advantage we might have. Tulsa’s gonna be exhausted after an extra innings game

JSU finally won in 10
Should start right around 5pm, and then the 2nd game will be probably closer to 8

The freshman from Alabama is going to be a star.
What a game
only could make it to the Jax State game today. Pitching is a little rusty, but offense was great.

I expect pitching to take some time to catch up. Delbrey got hit pretty hard in game 1, but did a good job limiting damage.
Hoover looked really good, then had a horrible non call on a strike 3 that would’ve got out of an inning giving up zero that turned into a 4 spot.
Julianne Tipton looked great in both relief appearances. 6.2 scoreless innings from her between both games.
Offense was great. I loved the approach at the plate. The ball was put in play all night and the middle of our lineup is a power threat once again. I firmly believe this lineup will be good enough to compete for the SBC.

Agree Hoover deserved a better fate. HP umpire had a very inconsistent game, which is to say she wasn’t very good.
As mentioned, nice to see some pop in the lineup again. Might need some tinkering..definitely need a strong/hot bat behind Smith or she’s gonna get pitched around.
I really liked Hart…gonna have to find a spot in the lineup for her as I’m not sure if Williams and Liscano is a good combo (especially back-to-back.
With that said, Liscano is so good defensively. Good problem to have.
Defense was okay yesterday. Only real mistake was RF throwing to 2B on a clear double that allowed the runner on 1st to score. Think the only real “error” was on a do-or-die to LF.
Great job by Tipton and nice to see the offense answer every inning. Geaux Cajuns!
Today will probably give better insight into how much, or if, we’ve improved. North Texas wasn’t a Regional team last year, but they’re record overall was much better than ours, and they made it further into their conference tournament.
They’re currently 0-2, but those losses were a run rule loss to the Fighting Glascos of Texas Tech, and 5-2 loss to McNeese, who was 41-20 last year.
Williams threw several way off target relays back into the infield.
