Louisiana Tech and FIU were rained out last night.

Southeastern Louisiana is still in first place in the Southland after sweeping a doubleheader from Houston Baptist yesterday. The Lions won game one three to two, and the nightcap six to one at Husky Field. S-L-U has won seven straight conference games and they are 16-and-4 in the league.

Northwestern State is trying to keep up with the Lions. The Demons defeated Texas A-and-M Corpus Christi four to three yesterday to improve to 15-and-6 in the league. Adam Oller tossed his fourth complete game and CJ Webster drove in the winning run with a sacrifice fly in the ninth inning.

McNeese State thumped Nicholls State nine to one. Kaleb Fontenot threw eight innings for his sixth win of the season.
