With Louisiana competing in the Sun Belt tournament, it's impossible not to think about former head coach Tony Robichaux. Hearing him honored during a recent McNeese State game is a reminder of his long-reaching impact on college baseball.
The late great Tony Robichaux, former head coach of Louisiana's Ragin' Cajun baseball team, will be inducted into the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) Hall of Fame.
McNeese has announced that they will honor the late Tony Robichaux before the game by officially naming the bullpen after their former player and coach.
Robichaux, who accumulated more than 1,100 career victories, including more than 900 at Louisiana, was a head coach for 32 years, including 25 at UL, and 7 more at McNeese St.
UL has just announced a new line of merchandise, "The 36 Collection" honoring the late Coach Tony Robichaux will be available beginning Friday, February 14th.
UL athletic supporters, baseball fans and all who admired and respected Ragin’ Cajun coach Tony Robichaux will have an opportunity to honor the late coach and provide financial assistance for his family at the inaugural “Robe” Golf Tournament.
Matt Deggs, who helped the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns to their best record in school history as an assistant, has been named the Cajuns' new baseball coach.
