[Watson]

LSU dropped Nicholls 9-4.

Louisiana Tech beat Arkansas 3-2 and Villanova took FSU to 14 before losing. Elon beat ECU, CofC beat Coastal, Arizona beat CSF, and McNeese upended ULL

[Watson]

[Watson]

LSU blew out Fordham 12-1

Elsewhere, it was a fairly ho hum night. Only real score of note was TCU dropping game one to Gonzaga 4-3 and UCLA beating Mississippi State 2-1

[Watson]

15-1 LSU in the first game, but LSU had to rally in the 7th to sweep Fordham.

Alex Lange has had some issues on the mound recently and that is greatly concerning me.

[Tovarich]

Won 2 with San Diego State and one in San Diego against William & Mary. I swear that's not what the original schedule said, but whatever.
