LAFAYETTE – For the third consecutive season, and fourth time in the past five seasons, the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns softball team will host an NCAA Regional at Lamson Park after being awarded the No. 14 seed in the 2016 NCAA Softball Tournament. The Lamson Park-based regional is scheduled to run Friday-Sunday, May 20-22.
The Ragin' Cajuns received their assignment Sunday evening during the NCAA Softball Selection Show.
The Sun Belt Conference champions were awarded the league's automatic bid into the postseason event, which was secured when they topped Texas State in Saturday's conference tournament championship game.
The Ragin' Cajuns are set to appear in the NCAA Tournament for the 18th consecutive season, a streak which dates back to the 1999 season.
