Louisiana Tech to host ULM tonight
RUSTON — Louisiana Tech will play its final home baseball game of the 2008 season as the “Battle of I-20” recommences with a visit from the ULM Warhawks at 6 p.m. Tuesday.
It will be the final home game for seniors Landon Braud, Drew Bunting, Adam Cobb, Albie Goulder, Alan Knotts, Andrew Lassere and Aaron Lorio, who were all honored before the May 4 game against Nevada. Tech is 77-63 all-time against ULM, and this senior class has compiled a mark of 5-4 against the Warhawks since 2005.
The two teams met earlier in the season at Warhawk Field in Monroe with the Bulldogs taking an 11-7 victory on Feb. 26.
Since that cool February night, the two teams have taken different roads. Tech (20-29, 5-21 WAC), which was picked to finish second in the WAC, stands in seventh place and will miss the conference tournament. ULM (32-20, 20-10 SBC), on the other hand, was picked to finish eighth in the 11-team Sun Belt, but stands on the verge of capturing the conference regular-season title if it gets some help from UL-Lafayette, this weekend.
The Warhawks have averaged 9.2 runs per game.
Tulane’s Hunt honored
On the heels of posting his ninth victory of the 2008 season, Tulane University baseball standout Shooter Hunt was named Conference USA Pitcher of the Week, the league announced Monday.
Tickets to be released
Current UL-Lafayette baseball season ticket holders have until Wednesday to purchase their regular seats for the Sun Belt tournament before they are released to the public.
All unsold seating will go on sale to the public on Thursday.
