There is a big game going on tonight in Lake Charles as in-state rivals the UL-Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns come to Lake Charles to take the baseball field to face off against the McNeese Cowboys.

There is a lot of interest in this game because of the close proximity of each of the Universities. The Cajuns are only about 70 miles East down I-10 and are constantly a good program year after year.

The Cowboys are off to a decent start in 2022 as they sit at 10-7 on the season. They have had some big wins so far this season beating Louisiana Tech, Alcorn State, and Southern.
