2018 Louisiana Athletics Hall of Fame: Yvette Girouard

EDITORS NOTE: This is the last of a six-part series on the 2018 Louisiana Athletics Hall of Fame Class. One member of the 2018 class will be highlighted daily heading into Saturday's Homecoming game against New Mexico State.

Coaches often talk about building a program from scratch … making something from nothing … constructing from the ground up.

Those are almost always metaphors and not to be taken literally … except in the case of Yvette Girouard when she began the Ragin' Cajun softball program in 1980.
