🔼 One More Time. LSU baseball is hosting Ole Miss in their final regular season series. The Tigers have won three of their last four SEC series. The Tigers own the all-time record against Ole Miss, 182-159. Pitcher Gage Jump will get the rock tonight. The series will start today at 6 pm at Alex Box Stadium, fans not attending can tune in on SEC Network.

🔼 All About Community. LSU third baseman Tommy White landed on the 2024 SEC Community Service Team. Back in February, he was voted to the Lou Gehrig Community Impact Team. He donates a large portion of his NIL earnings to Empower 225 in Baton Rouge, an organization aimed to empower youth to escape the cycle of violence and poverty by providing them with resources.

🔼  Still Swingin’. The men’s golf team punched their ticket to the NCAA Championships yesterday! They finished the NCAA Baton Rouge Regional in fifth-place to secure a spot. The Tigers shot 4-under yesterday to move their tournament total to 4-over. Connor Gaunt fired a 5-under to tie for fifth-place individually. The NCAA Championships will take place in Carlsbad, California May 24-26.

🔼  Dynamic Duo. Women’s golf head coach Garrett Runion is on the watch list for the DI Jackie Steinmann WGCA National Coach of the Year award! He has led the Tigers to three wins and an NCAA Regional this season. The Tigers are heading into their fourth-straight NCAA Championships tomorrow. Ingrid Lindblad was named one of five players on the final list for the DI PING WGCA Player of the Year award. She enters championship week with a school record average of 68.48 this season.
