After outscoring opponents 31-9 through three games, LSUE found itself in a 6-0 hole in game one of the championship series with Western Oklahoma State that it couldn't dig out of.

The Pioneers beat LSUE 9-4.

This "best of three" series is really an extension of the two-loss elimination format. Both teams entered the championship unbeaten. Game two is Friday at 7 p.m.

LSUE advanced to the championship series after beating Kellogg Wednesday, notching head coach Jeff Willis's 900th win.
