Dustin Tubre (West Monroe, La./West Monroe High), one of 12 seniors on the Wildcats team, took the loss after giving up the go-ahead run in the eighth. He pitched two compete innings of relief of starter Grant Cox (Lake Charles, La./Sam Houston High) striking out two and walking three while allowing one hit.

Cox pitched seven complete innings and allowed four runs, three earned, and 10 hits while striking out a pair.
