BATON ROUGE - After losing to UL on Sunday, LSU coach Yvette Girouard wished her alma mater the best of luck next weekend against No. 8 national seed Houston in a best-of-three Super Regional series.
But Girouard is torn when it comes to picking a winner. She coached UL co-coach Stefni Lotief and Houston coach Kyla Holas when she was with the Cajuns from 1981-2000.
UL (49-12) went to Houston (53-9) on April 30 and split a doubleheader. After losing the opener 2-0, the Cajuns won the nightcap, 4-0. The results are somewhat misleading because the Cajuns played without Sun Belt Player of the Year Holly Tankersley, who had pneumonia at the time.
