MONTGOMERY, Ala. (Interstat) — Louisiana-Lafayette pounded out 15 hits and rode a three-run homer from Noah Lewis to an 11-1 victory over Marshall on Tuesday evening at Montgomery Riverwalk Stadium. The Ragin’ Cajuns improved to 34-21 overall, while the Thundering Herd fell to 23-32.

Lewis, the center fielder, highlighted a five-run first inning for Louisiana-Lafayette with a run-scoring single that preceded a three-run blast in the fifth. He finished with four RBIs. Cody Brasch and Parker Smith combined on the mound for the Cajuns, limiting Marshall to three hits.

Marshall took a brief 1-0 lead in the top of the first on a run driven in by Jackson Halter that was aided by a throwing error, but the lead evaporated quickly.

Owen Galt and Mark Collins delivered RBI hits in the third, and Colt Brown singled home a run in the seventh for the final margin.
