HAMMOND, La. (Interstat) — Connor Cuff drove in four runs with a homer and a double to lead Southeastern Louisiana past Houston Christian 8-4 on Saturday evening at Pat Kenelly Diamond at Alumni Field.

The Lions improved to 32-20 overall, while the Huskies fell to 24-29. Southeastern Louisiana’s Truitt Webb pitched seven innings, allowing two earned runs and striking out four.

Cuff’s three-run homer in the third inning put the Lions ahead 3-0. The Huskies answered with four runs in the top of the sixth, capped by Preston Curtis’ two-run homer. But Southeastern Louisiana reclaimed the lead in the bottom half on Ben Robichaux’s run-scoring single. Cuff added an RBI double in the seventh and Rhett Priester homered in the eighth.

Curtis finished 2 for 4 with a homer and two RBIs for Houston Christian, which managed only five hits. The Lions collected 12 hits.
