Louisiana's Ragin' Cajuns Softball (38-2, 13-2) completed the weekend sweep of Middle Tennessee with a 4-3 win over the Blue Raiders Sunday afternoon in Murfreesboro, Tenn.

The Cajuns scored twice in the game on double steals to pull out the series win.

The Ragin' Cajuns used the first double steal to go ahead 3-2 in the top of the sixth scoring Fernandez, the sophomore’s fourth stolen base of the game. Fernandez singled to third base with two outs to keep the inning alive. She stole second and advanced to third on an infield single by Smith to set up the double steal attempt.

Louisiana executed their second double steal of the game to perfection to grab a 4-3 lead in the top of the seventh. Draheim stood on third with Cherry on first as the junior, Cherry, took off for second and beat the throw down, which scored Draheim from third for the winning run.

Ashley Brignac (15-2) hurled her 15th complete game, allowing three runs on four hits and struck out five Blue Raiders (12-25, 2-10) hitters.

UL will return to action next weekend as they host Florida Atlantic in a three-game series.
