MOBILE, Ala. — If there was a question whether a rain delay would affect the focus of Louisiana-Lafayette’s softball team, it was answered in a big hurry Thursday.
The Ragin’ Cajuns made a mockery of their first outing in the Sun Belt Conference softball championships, rolling to a 13-1 run-rule victory over fourth-seeded Georgia State to advance to Friday’s winners’ bracket finals.
The top-seeded Cajuns (41-7) scored 11 runs in the second inning, sending 16 batters to the plate against three Panthers pitchers — one of them making two separate appearances — in that inning.
