Louisiana Tech hosts the Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles in a three-game home series this weekend at JC Love Field at Pat Patterson Park, starting with tonight’s 6 p.m. first pitch in game one of the series.
Saturday’s game is slated for 2 p.m. and Sundays at 1 p.m. with all three contests on ESPN+. The games can also be heard on the LA Tech Sports Network.
Tech (12-1) suffered its first loss of the season Wednesday night, falling 6-4 to Xavier. The Bulldogs trailed 6-0 before rallying for two runs in the eighth and two more in the ninth, but came up short on the scoreboard for the first time this year.
Southern Miss (8-5) is on a two-game losing streak after one loss against Mississippi State and one against Indiana State. The Golden Eagles clinched a series win against Indiana State this past weekend. Southern Miss went 46-20 in 2023 and hosted an NCAA Super Regional in Hattiesburg.
Louisiana Tech and Southern Miss have faced each other 49 times since the first meeting in 1972. The last time both teams faced off was in a midweek home and way series in 2023, where Southern Miss beat Tech 6-5 on the road. Tech won 3-1 against the Golden Eagles at home in 2023.
