Six teams from Louisiana will be in the NCAA Tournament. The Regional Pairings will be released today.
The LSU Tigers entered the SEC Tournament on the bubble for making a Regional, but they will likely be a two-seed at a four-team regional after winning four of five at the SEC Tourney. They lost in yesterday’s championship game to Tennessee four to three. But Coach Jay Johnson says it was a great run in Hoover…
cut 18 (18) “…do that”

Louisiana Tech had a great run in the Conference USA Tournament, but lost in the championship game to Dallas Baptist 17 to 10. The Bulldogs could also be a two seed in the NCAA Regional. The Ragin Cajuns could also be a two-seed.

Grambling State has won its first SWAC Championship since 2010 with a dramatic victory over Jackson State. The Tigers were down by a run in the ninth inning. Trevor Hatton’s RBI single tied the game and the winning run scored on a throwing error.

Tulane and Nicholls are back in the NCAA Tournament for a second straight year. The Colonels clobbered McNeese 15 to 1 for the Southland Tournament title. Basiel Williams was named tournament MVP. Williams hit a game tying home run in the ninth on Thursday and a walk-off homer against Southeastern on Friday.

Tulane left fielder Jakcson Linn hit a 433-foot home run in the bottom of the ninth to give the Green Wave an 11 to 10 win over Wichita State. Tulane entered the tournament as a three-seed.

And the LSU softball team’s season ended last night with a eight to nothing defeat to Stanford. The Tigers won the first game of the series 11 to 1, but failed to score a run on Saturday or last night. LSU ends with a 44-17 record.
