Wildcats Top Performers:
Â
- Jake Messina might have only had one hit, but it was the dagger, getting ahold of a two-RBI blast to cap the contest's scoring in the top of the eighth and put a dozen on the scoreboard.
Â
- Of the seven Wildcats to notch a pair of hits, the duo of Tyler McKenna and Harrison Waxley picked up a walk to reach thrice on top of two ribbies and a run scored each, McKenna also doubled.
Â
- Braden Trull was 2-for-4 (.500) with a free pass as well, however, instead of RBIs, he scored a team-most three times with a two-bagger mixed in.
Â
Â
- On a warm early February Saturday in which the ball was flying around the yard, reliever Cowan Alfonso got his first victory donning the Wildcat logo in addition to a save he picked up earlier in the year, going one-and-a-third with nary a walk to close things out.
Â
Next:
 Â
- Nelson University out of Waxahachie, Texas are the next adversary to close out the Cajun Collision at 6 p.m. before returning home.
