<blockquote><p align=justify>LOUISIANA La. - If Moore Field is anywhere close to playable tonight, Louisiana baseball coach Tony Robichaux’s ready to go.
The Ragin’ Cajuns host Nicholls State tonight at 6:30 p.m., field conditions permitting, in the squad’s second home appearance of the season. By this time, the Cajuns had been slated for five home appearances, but that was before Mother Nature stepped in.
The Cajuns (2-2) were on the road last weekend at Texas State, where they took one of three games, and weren’t around to cover the Moore Field infield when rain returned to the area late Sunday and early Monday.
“We really need to get this one in,” said Robichaux, whose team spent most of Tuesday’s Mardi Gras workout indoors. “Playing right now is so important because this is the time of year to get guys into games.”
UL Lafayette was able to get all but one position player — St. Thomas More freshman signee Jeffries Tatford — into action in last weekend’s series, and Robichaux was hoping to continue using much of his roster tonight.
“We want to get guys that haven’t faced Division I pitching or hitting out there at all cost,” he said. “If we can do that, we’ll be that much better. You don’t want somebody to have their first appearance in April.”

The Cajuns will be looking to improve on offensive production beginning in tonight’s game. The squad has a 2.38 team ERA and other than a three-error game in Friday’s opening 6-4 loss to Texas State has only one error in the other three games. However, UL Lafayette has only a .262 batting average through its first four games.
“We’ll hit a lot better than we have,” Robichaux said. “We just haven’t been able to see as much live pitching as we should by this time.”
For Nicholls State, meanwhile, the reverse is true. The Colonels (3-3) lost three straight at La. Tech over the weekend and gave up double-digit runs in all three games while committing 11 errors, and the lack of outdoor workouts due to the weather is likely the biggest factor.
“Our defense has been awful,” said Nicholls coach B.D. Parker. “We haven’t gotten the reps that we’d like to. I think we’re capable of playing good defense, but we played three games, sat for 13 days and then played three more. It’s hard to get a rhythm of play like that.”
The Cajuns are scheduled to start junior righthander Josh Kohrs, a junior college product from St. Charles, Mo., on the mound. Kohrs (0-0, 4.50) pitched the final four innings and got a save in Saturday’s 6-3 win over the Bobcats.
“He pitched well,” Robichaux said of Kohrs. “He had been throwing well in intrasquad, and we really like him because he has control of six or seven pitches and he has enough velocity and good size (6-4, 225). We’ll probably throw a couple of other pitchers that haven’t thrown yet.”
The Colonels were scheduled to start sophomore righthander Shawn LeBlanc (0-0, 31.50), who has thrown two innings in two outings this season. However, LeBlanc had a death in his family Monday and his availability is questionable for tonight.
Of course, with the field conditions, playing is also questionable.
“The good thing is that Nicholls is close by,” Robichaux said. “We’ve already talked about going to Thursday if we can’t play, and they’re close enough that we can reschedule easily.”

:/\: looks like there's no baseball again tonight, (i'm sick of all this rain)hopefully the game will be played thursday night, they cannot even practice! if they had a indoor practice facility they could at least do that, that's how important this is, if it ever happens! man......... will we ever get a break, i'm bumded out for the rest of the day; for some reason i thought the baseball field had a drainage system, looks like i was wrong again.
Game rescheduled for May 10
Thats to bad. You can imagine the trouble northern schools are having with snow on the ground however.
<blockquote><p align=justify>LOUISIANA La. — They haven’t been able do much outside practicing due to the weather. They’ve scrambled around to find places to work out, and they’re desperate just to play. Their coaches say their hitters haven’t faced enough live pitching and their hurlers haven’t thrown to enough batters.
Louisiana’s baseball team? Yes, but it also applies to the University of Stony Brook’s Seawolves, who journeyed all the way from New York’s Long Island for a weekend series that begins tonight at 6:30 p.m. at Moore Field.
The host Ragin’ Cajuns (2-2) have been pushed around by rain and wet grounds for most of the last two weeks. It’s been the severe cold and, yes, snow that has hampered the early preparations for Stony Brook (1-2).
“We’ve actually gotten out as much as we can,” said Seawolves coach Matthew Senk. “Our new football stadium has a sports turf, and the snow had been cleared for our lacrosse team. That gave us an opportunity to get out there and do some things on the field.
“It’s not the same as getting out there and playing on the diamond, but we’ve made the most of it.”
Stony Brook, a member of the America East Conference and a finalist in that league’s tournament last spring, played three games in the Griffin Pontiac Challenge in Rock Hill, S.C., last weekend. The Seawolves beat Appalachian State 10-3 and lost to Akron 15-8 and host Winthrop 10-6 in that round-robin tournament.
“The approach we took there was to give everyone an opportunity,” Senk said. “We gave our entire pitching staff an opportunity to throw. The more you can play, the more at bats, the more innings, you can take all of that into conference play.”

The Seawolves came close to an earlier Louisiana trip at the end of the 2003 season. Stony Brook pulled off a pair of upsets before falling to Northeastern in the America East finals, and Northeastern wound up as the No. 4 seed in the NCAA regional at Alex Box Stadium in Baton Rouge.
“We think we play a pretty solid brand of baseball,” said Senk. “Northeastern showed that some in the NCAA’s down there, and this is a great opportunity for us to get to another region of the country.”
The Cajuns haven’t played since dropping two of three games at Texas State last weekend, with a scheduled Wednesday home contest against Nicholls State washed out by wet field conditions. UL Lafayette has pushed back four of its first eight scheduled games because of weather.
“We’re still trying to see as many people as we can and get a lot of people into games,” Robichaux said. “They (Stony Brook) are a lot like us in that they’ve got only three games under their belts. They’re as anxious to play as we are.”
