Bayou Brew 4/6: Going Deep

Plus: A new record is set.

Good morning, Tigers.

Cade Arrambide became the first player in LSU baseball history to hit four home runs in a single game, going 5-for-6 with seven RBI to power the Tigers to a 16-6 comeback victory in 12 innings! The Tigers launched seven homers on the afternoon, with Steven Milam, Edward Yamin IV, and Seth Dardar each adding one, and pounded out 19 hits total. Reliever Gavin Guidry earned the win with 5.1 strong innings of one-run, two-hit ball after entering in the seventh.

🔼 Moving On. The Tigers claimed their 16th regional title and third straight with a 197.825 at the PMAC, advancing to the NCAA Championship Semifinals on April 16. Kailin Chio delivered another perfect 10.0 on vault, her fifth this season, and scored a near-perfect 9.975 on beam to win both event titles plus the all-around (39.750). Kaliya Lincoln capped the night with the first 10.0 of her career on floor to seal a 49.650 floor rotation, the third-highest at an NCAA Regional in program history. Amari Drayton matched her career-high 9.95 on floor, and Ashley Cowan took a share of the bars title at 9.900.

🔼 Record Setter. Senior Ella Onojuvwevwo shattered her own LSU 400-meter record in her outdoor debut, clocking a jaw-dropping 49.59 seconds to become the first Tiger to go sub-50 in the event. The time extends her world and NCAA leads and places her 10th in collegiate history and third in Nigerian history. LSU swept the 4x400 relays to close the day; the women's squad posted the NCAA's No. 2 time at 3:26.51 (fourth in LSU history), anchored by Shawnti Jackson's 50.07 split, while the men won in 3:01.43, the ninth-fastest in program history.

🔼 At Augusta. Incoming Tiger Raegan Denton capped a spectacular ANWA debut with a 3-under 69 at Augusta National on Saturday, finishing T4 at 8-under 208 (67-72-69). The Australia native caught fire early with five birdies on the front nine, turning at 4-under 32, and added two more on the back, including one at the tricky par-4 17th. Denton becomes the third LSU golfer (present or future) to finish in the top four in the event's history, joining Ingrid Lindblad (three top-four finishes) and Latanna Stone (T2 in 2022).
