        LECOMPTE, La. — Xavier University of Louisiana's fourth season of intercollegiate softball ended Saturday with an 11-2 loss to Louisiana Christian in the second round of the Red River Athletic Conference Tournament.
        The game was stopped in the bottom of the fifth inning because of the eight-run rule.
        The eighth-seeded Gold Nuggets finished 0-2 in the tournament and 13-26 overall.
        Madison Winston, announced Friday evening as first-team All-RRAC, scored both XULA runs. Caitlin Buford's first-inning groundout brought home Winston, as did Calbey Parker's single to center field in the third.
        The Wildcats scored five times in the second inning — two bases-loaded walks and BreAnna Corkern's three-run double down the left-field line. LCU invoked the mercy rule with a four-run fifth, and Olivia Coaker's two-run homer ended the game.
        XULA lost 9-1 in Saturday's opening round to top-seeded and NAIA No. 1 Our Lady of the Lake.
