LAFAYETTE — Jordy Templet didn’t deserve a loss Sunday afternoon.

But, then again, neither did Southwest Texas State, which had dropped two hard-fought games to Louisiana in rugged weather conditions on Saturday afternoon.

Templet came on for the Cajuns in the sixth inning down 3-2 and shut Southwest Texas down to virtually nothing in seven innings of relief work.
