        PINEVILLE, La. — Xavier University of Louisiana lost 4-2 and 8-0 Tuesday to Louisiana Christian in a Red River Athletic Conference softball doubleheader.
        The Gold Nuggets (4-6 overall, 2-2 RRAC) never led in either game. The Wildcats (8-5, 3-1) scored three first-inning runs in the opener and two first-inning runs in the second game.
        For XULA in the first game, Chanei Keyes singled home Madison in the third inning, and Calbey Parker singled home Caitlin Buford in the seventh. Maia Tyler pitched a complete game and allowed one unearned run in six innings.
        LCU got complete games from pitchers Brooke Ross in the first game abd Miah Broussard in the second. The finale ended in the fifth because of the eight-run rule; the Wildcats scored five runs, all unearned, in that inning.
        XULA will return to competition next month with a six-game series — three noon doubleheaders, the first two against RRAC opponents — at Regala Park in Reserve, La.:
        •  Friday, March 8 against Houston-Victoria
        •  Saturday, March 9 against Huston-Tillotson
