The Pontiff Classic has provided some of LSU Baseball's best games during the years and tonight is no exception. We last saw Southern Miss (16-10, 1-2 in CUSA) in Omaha when they went 2 and barbecue for Corky Palmer's retirement party. We share alot of common opponents this season:

Northwestern 2-1 (11-0, 7-3, 5-7)
USL 2-1 (4-0, 6-1, 6-10)
UNO 1-0 (11-2)
ULM 2-0 (14-5, 8-7)
Ole Miss 0-1 (11-6)

They are tied for last in the CUSA, but they've only played one conference series. Lead-off hitter 1B Adam Doleac leads most of their batting categories.

First pitch 7pm, No TV, Cloudy in the 80's, rain expected late tonight.

Probable starters

LSU, Fr. RH Mike Reed (0-0, 6.00 ERA, 13 K/9 BB)
Southern Mississippi, Jr. RH Seth Hester (1-0, 10.03, 6/8)

 

odd that this isn't televised.

Always!
