Lake Charles, LA [KNGT-FM] - Two popular Louisiana college baseball programs are set to face off next week in Lake Charles when the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns come to town to take on the Pokes.

The two teams will hit the diamond right here in Lake Charles at Joe MIller Ballpark (Cowboy Diamond) for a big showdown. The Cajuns started the season off on fire.

After losing the series against ULM over the weekend, the Cajuns dropped out of the D1 Baseball top 25 rankings, where they were ranked #25 before the losses. The Cajuns went 2-2 this past week, and as of March 30th, their current record is 18-10, 3-6 in conference.

The McNeese Cowboys have won four of their last six ballgames and will take on Abilene Christian this weekend for a three-game set before preparing for the Cajuns to come to town. The pokes are currently 14-14 on the season and 6-6 in Southland Conference play.

The Cowboys and Cajuns game carries a little earlier game time than McNeese fans are used to. The game is set for Tuesday, March 31st, at Joe Miller Ballpark in Lake Charles, and the first pitch is set for 4:00 pm.

So make a note of the game time, an early start, so you can make it out to the ballpark earlier enough to catch this exciting matchup between two big Louisiana college baseball programs.
