The Louisiana College Wildcats baseball team carries a No. 14 ranking in the NAIA on the road for four straight games, starting in Texarkana, Texas today in a Red River Athletic Conference series.

LCU (24-5 overall, 9-3 in the RRAC) visits Texas A&M-Texarkana (12-18, 3-9) with a noon doubleheader today and a noon single game wrapping up the series Saturday at George Dobson Field.

The Wildcats finished a dominant performance last weekend with a pair of 11-1 wins over the Xavier Gold Rush in a Saturday doubleheader at Billy Allgood Field.

Coach Mike Byrnes’ club is on a five-game win streak. The Wildcats are 18-1 at home, 3-3 on the road.

After the Texarkana series, LCU visits NCAA Division I McNeese next Wednesday, then comes home for a RRAC series next Friday and Saturday against Texas College.
