Cajuns Climb Among the Nation's Elite to No. 7 in ESPN/USA Softball Top 25

Tuesday, March 30, 2004

LAFAYETTE – Louisiana’s Ragin’ Cajuns softball team will end the month of March with its highest ranking of the season and highest ever under head coach Stefni Lotief.
The Ragin’ Cajuns (30-4) continued to move up among the nation’s elite, taking over the No. 7 spot in the ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate Top 25 Poll, after going 2-0 last week.

Louisiana is ranked ahead of Washington, Stanford, Michigan, Alabama and Tennessee and is the highest ranked team in the NCAA Midwest Region after surpassing Oklahoma.

Louisiana began the season ranked No. 8 in the poll and was ranked eighth prior to last week’s poll – which at the time was its highest ranking.

UL received 366 votes and moved up two spots from the No. 9 spot it held last week.

The ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate Top 25 poll is voted on by NCAA Division I coaches representing 15 different ASA regions and 12 different collegiate conferences. The poll is also voted on by selected softball media members.

The Cajuns return to action Wednesday, March 31 in a 5 p.m. doubleheader against Northwestern State at the Demon Softball Complex in Natchitoches.
