LAFAYETTE — UL-Lafayette doesn’t need a lecture on what can happen in NCAA regional play.
Two years ago, the Ragin’ Cajuns were the nation’s top-ranked team in two polls, hosting a regional for only the second time in history at M.L. “Tigue” Moore Field and coming off the momentum of the first of what is now three straight Sun Belt Conference tournament titles.
So what happened? The Cajuns were unceremoniously dumped 1-0 by little-regarded Jackson State in their regional opener, and had to win four straight back-to-the-wall games to survive into the super regional round.
