[NewsCopy]

  The Cajuns Devin Carrey shot a 69 in both rounds and trails Southeastern Louisiana's Cedric Scotto by just one stroke for the individual lead

The first two rounds of the 24th Annual Louisiana Classics are in the books. The University of Louisiana (571) trails day one leader New Orleans (569) by two strokes.

The Cajuns Devin Carrey shot a 69 in both rounds and trails Southeastern Louisiana's Cedric Scotto by just one stroke for the individual lead. UL boasts a pair of players in the top 15, as Phillip Fendt sits in twelfth with a one-under total of 143.

The Privateers hold a slim two stroke lead over the Cajuns and lead both Rice and Southeastern Louisiana by only six shots.

Tuesday's third and final round will begin with a shotgun start at 8am.

This is on UL's website. Note the Louisiana-Lafayette reference and our top player is from LA-Lafayette. This is just rediculous and is another perfect example of the mixed message out there. I don't care that this is from Collegiate Scoring System Golfstat.com. It is OUR tournament and we tell them what to call us. When you are hosting the LOUISIANA CLASSICS and your are moving to be called LOUISIANA, why allow this to occur? I just don't get it. For every giant step forward we take, i.e. Kansas State reference to us as Louisiana (formerly Louisiana Lafayette), we take 2 steps backwards when something like this happens on our own website.

Golfstat.com provides the standings. Obviously they have us listed as U.L.-Lafayette. The story itself is all UL, provided by the good folks at ragincajuns.com. Our guys, I'm sure pulled the stats off of a website and pasted into their story, more than likely had a deadline to meet. I dont think any malice was involved.
For what its worth, I think the city tag is B.S. too....I just have more pressing things to fret over. We'll get it right sooner or later.
