LAFAYETTE, La. (Interstat) — Louisiana-Lafayette rallied from an early deficit with a four-run fourth inning Sunday afternoon at M. L. Tigue Moore Field, beating Georgia State 4-3 to complete a three-game Sun Belt Conference sweep.

The Ragin’ Cajuns (29-18) fell behind 1-0 in the first inning but responded in the bottom of the fourth when Griffin Hebert launched a solo home run to deep right field, his first of the season, cutting the deficit to 2-1. After a single by Brown and a double by Spalitta, Brown scored on a wild pitch to tie the game. Spalitta later scored on a groundout by Mark to give Louisiana-Lafayette a 4-1 lead.

Georgia State (22-25) outhit the Ragin’ Cajuns 11-5 but left 10 runners on base and committed a costly error that allowed an unearned run. The Panthers chipped away with a run in the fifth on an RBI single by Wills Maginnis and another in the seventh when John Beverley stole third and scored on a throwing error by Louisiana-Lafayette catcher Brown. But Georgia State could not push across the tying run.

The Panthers loaded the bases in the ninth inning after a single by Maginnis and a hit by pitch to Beverley, but Jax Griffith grounded into a double play to end the game.

Louisiana-Lafayette starter Ty Roman earned the win, allowing one earned run on four hits with two strikeouts over 4 2/3 innings. Roman, who worked around a first-inning run, improved to 4-2. He entered the game with a win last Wednesday against Nicholls State and a loss at Arkansas State in his previous two outings.

Cole Roberts started for Georgia State and took a no-hitter into the fourth inning, but after the Ragin’ Cajuns erupted for four runs, he was charged with four earned runs over six innings while striking out five. Will Bartkoski threw two scoreless innings of relief for the Panthers.

Hebert finished 1-for-3 with the home run and an RBI. Drew Markle was 1-for-2 with an RBI for Louisiana-Lafayette. Maginnis went 2-for-5 with an RBI for Georgia State. Beverley was 1-for-4 and scored twice.

The Panthers had won two of their previous three games coming into the weekend, including a 10-inning victory over Old Dominion, but were outscored 19-2 in the first two games of the series. Louisiana-Lafayette won the opener 5-1 and the second game 14-1 on Saturday to clinch the series and then secured the sweep Sunday.
