Southeastern Louisiana University (SLU) baseball faced an 8-4 loss against Tulane despite hitting three home runs. Tulane took an early lead with five runs in the first inning, capitalizing on multiple errors and hit batters. SLU managed to narrow the gap with a two-run homer from Alex Perry, followed by two solo shots from Justin Williams, but it wasn鈥檛 enough to overcome the early deficit.

By the Numbers
  • SLU hit three home runs: Alex Perry (11th of the season) and Justin Williams (9th of the season, two homers).
  • Tulane scored five runs in the first inning, aided by three hit batters.
State of Play
  • SLU is now 23-15 overall after the loss.
  • A SLU player, Rhett Centanni, was hospitalized after a collision but is reported to be in stable condition.
What's Next

SLU will continue its road trip with a three-game conference series against UTRGV in Edinburg, Texas, beginning this Friday.
