    These girls are very talented and hard workers! They will impress us this year but like at Nichols they will disappoint us some also, due to their youth.

  2. UL Softball Tankersley Sun Belt Player of the Week


      UL junior Holly Tankersley made her presence felt both in the pitching circle and at the plate for the Ragin' Cajun softball squad last weekend, and that fact was recognized by the Sun Belt Conference Tuesday.

    Tankersley was named the Sun Belt's Player of the Week Tuesday after earning Outstanding Player honors in UL's own Ragin' Cajuns Invitational and leading the Cajuns to five straight wins in that weekend tournament.

    The Kirbyville, Texas, product hit four home runs during the tournament, including a grand-slam homer in the fifth inning of Sunday's championship game against Baylor that boosted UL to an 8-3 victory. It was UL's second win in the tournament over the 16th-ranked Bears and its fourth win this season over a ranked team.

  4. UL Softball Lady Cajuns remain Undefeated at "The Lam"


      It's a familiar refrain.

    Holly Tankersley belts a grand-slam home run and UL's ninth-ranked softball squad breaks open a close game with a late-inning rally.

    The UL squad did that Sunday against nationally-ranked Baylor in the finals of their own Ragin' Cajuns Invitational. On Wednesday afternoon, they did the same thing against in-state rival McNeese State.

    Tankersley's slam in the bottom of the sixth inning came as part of a five-run uprising and lifted the Cajuns to a 7-1 victory, keeping UL perfect at Lamson Park this season.

    Freshman pitcher Brittany Cuevas fanned 10 Cowgirls and allowed a lone sixth-inning run in her second win over McNeese (5-9) this season.

    Tankersley was 2-for-3 hitting for the Cajuns (13-1), who broke open a scoreless game on Codi Runyan's solo homer in the third inning. Moments later, Lacey Bertucci singled and scored on a passed ball for a 2-0 advantage.

  7. UL Softball UL Cajun Women Lose to Lady Braves of Alcorn State


      Alcorn State surprised the 14th-ranked Louisiana’s Ragin’ Cajuns softball team tallying a 5-4 victory here Friday evening at the Northwestern State Invitational.

    The Ragin’ Cajuns (14-2) were held to only one hit through the first six innings before mounting a rally in the bottom of the seventh inning that fell short when Codi Runyan was thrown out from center field attempting to score the tying run.

    The loss snapped UL’s seven-game winning streak and evened the team’s tournament record at 1-1.

    Alcorn jumped in front in the third inning using a two-out rally to take a 2-0 lead. A two-out walk issued to Melissa Mason was followed by three consecutive hits that scored runs.

    The Ragin’ Cajuns got one of the runs back in the bottom of the fourth inning.

    Lacey Bertucci drew a leadoff walk then Holly Tankersley and Melissa Verde were hit by a pitch from Alcorn pitcher Corina Pendleton to load the bases.

    A one-out sacrifice fly to left field off the bat of Jessica Lemoine scored pinch runner Courtney Trahan cutting the Braves’ lead to 2-1.

    Another two-out rally in the top of the fifth inning plated three more runs for Alcorn State increasing the lead to 5-1.

    A walk followed by back-to-back singles plated the Braves’ third run. Then a throwing error allowed the Braves to add two more unearned runs which gave them enough runs to hold on to the victory in the seventh inning.

    The Cajuns quickly loaded the bases in the bottom of the seventh inning.

    Karli Hubbard reached on the fielding error by Alcorn first baseman Melinda Ellis. Vallie Gaspard then walked moving Hubbard into scoring position. Meagan Godwin then singled down the left field line scoring Hubbard making it 5-2.

    Gaspard and Godwin moved up on a passed ball and then Codi Runyan drew a walk to load the bases still with no outs.

    After Bertucci fouled out for the first out of the inning, Tankersley singled back up the middle plating Gaspard and Godwin closing the deficit to 5-4. Runyan advanced to third base on the Tankersley base hit .

    Melissa Verde worked the count full before lofting a fly ball into shallow center field. Runyan attempted to tag up for the chance to tie the game, but the throw from Alcorn center fielder Tonya Nelms was on target to nail down Runyan and complete the double play to end the contest.

    Tankersley took the loss for the Ragin’ Cajuns. She surrendered five runs (three earned) while allowing five hits over five innings. The loss overshadowed the fact that she tied her career-high for strikeouts with 11.

    Shari Sigur entered in relief in the sixth inning and tossed two innings of shutout softball. She allowed two hits and only faced one batter over the minimum.

    The Ragin’ Cajuns will continue play in the Northwestern State Invitational on Saturday meeting Colgate at 9 a.m., at the Demon Softball Complex. Then at 11:30 a.m., the Cajuns move to Natchitoches Central High School for a meeting with Tennessee-Martin to complete round robin play.

    UL Softball Re: UL Cajun Women Lose to Lady Braves of Alcorn State

    And I am wondering WHY the headline is Cajuns LOSE. They did WIN the first game! The record is 14-2, but the focus is on LOSE. WHY? Holly had 11 strike outs! Brittany Cuevas had 8, combined for 18! That is awesome. Why is the focus on LOSE?

    The game against Colgate will begin at 9 a.m. and can be observed on Live Stats on the RaginCajuns.com softball site. I believe it is due to the impending bad weather.

    BTW, Becky McMurtry is the head coach of the Northwestern State team and is hosting this tournament. At age 25 she is tackling big work! Remember Becky? She is a 3 time All American that graduated as an Outstanding Grad in the College of General Studies in 2003. She missed graduation because she was playing on the UL team at the College World Series.

    UL Proud!

    Need to find out where the story came from. If its from the NWST website, the moron SID probably did the story. He has no love lost for UL.

    His headline for the UL win over NWST was something along the lines of "NWST pitcher subdues Rajin Cajun bats in Cajun victory". He made it a point to spell Ragin wrong as well.

    Big test today to see if our girls can come back from that embarrasment last night.
