The LSU Tigers are gearing up to face off against the North Dakota State Bison in a two-game series at Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The Tigers, currently ranked No. 1 in D1 Baseball, are riding a six-game win streak and recently claimed the Frisco College Baseball Classic championship.
LSU head coach Jay Johnson praised his team’s toughness and maturity, emphasizing the importance of handling adversity as a cohesive unit. The Tigers are looking forward to their five-game homestand and are eager to continue their winning streak.
Freshman pitcher Casan Evans was named SEC Co-Freshman of the Week for his exceptional performance on the mound, earning a win and a save in two appearances last week. Senior outfielder Josh Pearson was named the Most Outstanding Player of the Frisco College Baseball Classic, delivering key hits and making defensive plays that helped secure wins for the Tigers.
On the other hand, the North Dakota State Bison, currently sitting at a 1-9 record, are looking to bounce back after suffering a three-game sweep by Alabama. The Bison will face Tulane in a three-game series following their matchup with LSU.
North Dakota State is led by infielder Jake Schaffner, who is hitting .436 with one homer and three RBI, while catcher Noah Gordon leads the team in RBI with nine. The Bison are hoping to improve their performance on both offense and defense as they take on tough competition in the upcoming games.
