Louisiana Tech will travel to McNeese for a midweek contest on Wednesday night.

First pitch is set for 6 PM on ESPN+/SportsTalk 97.7 FM.

As @Lake Charles Bulldog mentioned a couple of days ago, there should be a solid number of Tech fans in attendance considering Drost, Comeaux, Snider, & LaRocca will be playing back in their hometown.

McNeese is 4-4 overall. Swept by Texas A&M, then a midweek loss to ULL. The Cowboys then swept New Mexico State in a 4-game series this past weekend.

Would be big to get this one before traveling to Sugarland on Thursday.

CUSA action tonight:

WKU up 4 on Sam Houston at half

Liberty on the road up 2 at New Mexico State at half

UTEP up 4 on Jax State at the half

Louisiana Tech will travel to WKU for its final road game of the season on Wednesday night.

Tipoff is scheduled for 7 PM on ESPN+/KXKZ107.5 FM.

Tech is favored by 1.5.

A win for Tech clinches a top 2 seed in the conference tournament in a couple of weeks.

WKU defeated the Bulldogs 81-76 in Ruston earlier this season. It is Tech’s only home loss this season.

The Hilltoppers play at the fastest pace in the country. Tech has played at the slowest pace in the conference in league play. Who controls the tempo the best might determine the winner.

Louisiana Tech will host Kent State in a 3-game series this weekend.

Friday - 6 PM
Saturday - 2 PM
Sunday - 1 PM

You can listen to the games on SportsTalk 97.7 FM or the LA Tech Athletics App.

Kent State was picked to win the MAC this year. The Golden Flashes went to Omaha in 2012.

Should be a really good test for Tech. @cwardell03 will have the full preview later this morning.

Check it out:

- Conference USA Standings
- Tech has quietly become one of the best 3-point shooting teams in the country.
- Tech now ranks 100th nationally in offensive efficiency and 33rd in defensive efficiency.
- The Bulldogs have limited opponents to only 28.5% from behind the 3-point line in conference play, and that's all while ranking 2nd nationally in 2-point FG % defense. Pretty solid combination.

It’s been trending in this direction:

I got nothing, but you can put non-Wood AD talk here.

Colton Primm, LA Tech Senior Associate AD for Championship Resources, is leaving LA Tech for a job at Arkansas.

Primm will be the Senior Associate Director for Major Gifts and Capital Campaigns in Fayetteville.

Colton was a tremendous asset at LA Tech for a number of years and did a tremendous job. Great guy, great family. He will be missed by many.
