CORVALLIS, Oregon -- Bobby Bardier walked into his press conference with a grin on his face. The Northwestern State baseball coach had just taken a picture with seven alumni who made the trip up from Louisiana to Oregon for the NCAA Regionals.
And the Demons had something to celebrate in that picture and in the press conference. Northwestern State had just beaten San Diego State, and dominated the Aztecs at that, winning 9-0 Saturday (June 2) to keep the Northwestern State season alive.
It was the first regional win for the Demons in 13 years and by the largest margin in 25.
