Matt Goulas knows how to play big in big games as a freshman.

He did it at Hanson Memorial as a high school ninth-grader, hitting two homers in a playoff win for the Tigers.

And he did again for UL as a college freshman Friday night, hitting two homers and driving in seven runs to help the Ragin' Cajuns to an 11-8 win over UNO in front of 2,112 at M.L. "Tigue" Moore Field.

Goulas has now hit three homers in two games as the Cajuns improved to 27-27 overall and 15-14 in Sun Belt play.

"I feel very relaxed at the plate, I'm seeing the ball real well," Goulas said. "I don't know what it is, I usually find the holes, but now I'm just hitting it over the fence."
