North Vermilion graduate Lexi Broussard hits grand slam for LCU

The Louisiana Christian University softball program may have been celebrating Senior Day over the weekend, but it was a junior who kick-started the comeback with an offensive performance of a lifetime as the Cats picked up another massive conference win in a 10-2 rout of Xavier (Louisiana) in game two Sunday afternoon.
Lexi Broussard, who picked the most opportune time for her first career home run, unloading the bases for the team’s first grand slam since the 2023 RRAC Tournament en route to a personal-record five-RBI, 3-for-3 nightcap in which she drove in all of her ribbies in the opening two frames on top of scoring twice and stealing a bag.
The North Vermilion graduate now has a .310 batting average in 100 at bats. She also has 19 RBI on the year
Against Texas State, she went four-for-four at the plate and knocked in three runs and scored three runs that game.
In Saturday’s game, LCU flipped the game on its head in the bottom of the second, scoring five runs on three hits to take the lead, 6-2. The biggest blow in the inning was a grand slam to left field by Broussard that drove in four.
North Vermilion graduate Miah Broussard started in the circle for LCU. The hurler surrendered three hits and two runs (one earned) over two innings, striking out none and walking one.
Miah is a senior and she was honored on Senior Day.
