On Opening Day of the 2020 season and a night dedicated to Tony Robichaux, Louisiana (0-1) dropped its first game of the season, 3-2, to Southeastern Louisiana (1-0) at M.L. 'Tigue' Moore Field at Russo Park.
Friday night's game was a true pitchers dual throughout the first five innings. Junior starting pitcher Conor Angel dazzled in his first career start as a Ragin' Cajun, tossing 5.2 innings and allowing one earned run on three hits._
Angel became the first pitcher since Joe Zimmerman in 2011 to start an opener having not been on the previous year's team. Although he was tagged with the loss, Angel struck out seven batters on 89 pitches._
