Trey LaFleur recorded his first collegiate three-hit game, capping it with a two-out RBI single in the bottom of the 11th inning to lift the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Baseball team to a walk-off 6-5 win over UT Arlington to complete a three-game sweep of a Sun Belt Conference series on Sunday at M.L. "Tigue" Moore Field at Russo Park.
David Christie (1-0) earned his first victory on the mound for Louisiana (28-17, 17-7 SBC) since April 3, 2021, after pitching a hitless 11th inning with a strikeout. Jeff Wilson recorded his fifth quality start of the season for Louisiana, tossing 6.0 innings and allowing two earned runs with a strikeout.
Louisiana recorded its fourth walk-off win of the season and second in the three-game series against UTA (14-34, 6-18 SBC) as Heath Hood reached on a two-out, infield single before stealing second to get into scoring position. LaFleur, who finished 3-for-5 with a two-run homer in the sixth, then laced the next pitch from UTA reliever David Moffat (2-8) into right field and allowing Hood to score to give the Ragin' Cajuns their third straight one-run victory.
