How every Houma-Thibodaux area high school baseball team fared in LHSAA Tournament
Five Houma-Thibodaux area high school baseball teams made this season's LHSAA tournaments, with four winning at least one playoff round, and two making it to state.
Here's how they all fared:
Assumption
The Mustangs claimed the 11th seed in the Division II non-select bracket, and opened the tournament with a sweep of No. 22 Albany, winning 5-3 in Game 1 and 5-0 in Game 2. However, Assumption's run came to an end in the second round with a three-game loss to No. 6 North Vermilion. The Mustangs dropped Game 1, 5-0, then won Game 2, 13-1, and fell in Game 3, 4-3.
Covenant Christian
CCA clinched the second seed in Division V select, opening with a first-round bye, and won its second-round game against 18-seed Catholic-Point Coupee, 5-3. The Lions then won their quarterfinal game against Sacred Heart to advance to Sulphur. The run at state was quickly over, however, as CCA was upset by 11-seed Glenbrook in the semifinals, 3-2.
E.D. White
The Cardinals received a first-round bye in Division II select as the 6-seed, and opened the tournament against No. 11 Archbishop Shaw. EDW won Game 1, 1-0, but lost Game 2, 3-0, before winning Game 3, 4-3. However, despite winning Game 1 of the quarterfinals against rival and second-seeded Vandebilt Catholic 6-2, the Cardinals dropped their next two games, 5-3 in Game 2 and 6-3 in Game 3.
