Delgado sweeps the opening day of the Region XXIII Tournament
NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — The Delgado Dolphins are one win away from their 14th Region XXIII Tournament Division I title in a row.
The Dolphins opened tournament play with a 3-0 win over BRCC in a game that starting pitcher Luke Barbier struck out seven and allowed just two hits.
Delgado recorded just 7 hits in the win.
The bats came alive in their second game of the day with a 9-5 victory over Nunez Community College thanks to a 13-hit performance from their offense.
The Dolphins will face Nunez again Friday at 2 p.m. over at Kirsch-Rooney Stadium with a chance to win the Region XXIII Tournament.
If Nunez wins Friday, the Pelicans and Dolphins will play a winner-take-all championship game Saturday at 2 p.m.
This year, the Region XXIII Tournament champion and runner-up will both advance to the South District Championship next week in Oxford, Alabama.
