The nine-game win streak and a run of 14 straight victories in the Cajundome are both gone. In all likelihood, so are the University of Louisiana at Lafayette’s chances at the Sun Belt Conference’s men’s basketball regular-season title.
Ragin’ Cajuns coach Bob Marlin knows it’s going to be tough for his squad to catch Little Rock, which improved to 12-2 in Sun Belt play with Saturday’s 68-64 win. It was the Trojans’ second over the Cajuns this season, giving them a tiebreaker advantage for league tournament seeding even if UL-Lafayette (14-9, 10-4) can make up two games in the final six regular-season outings.
