LSU Shreveport (La.) Gets Record-Tying Win, No. 57, Over Southeastern (Fla.), 10-0

LEWISTON, Idaho – LSU Shreveport (La.) tied a 16-year-old collegiate baseball record for consecutive wins Wednesday night at the Avista NAIA World Series in Lewiston, Idaho, beating Southeastern (Fla.), 10-0, in seven innings to advance to Thursday night’s semifinal round.

Already 10 past the four-year record for consecutive wins, the Pilots have now tied the all-time best win total across all divisions of collegiate baseball. In 2009, Howard (Texas), a two-year program, won 57 consecutive until a loss on May 13, 2009, to Temple (Texas).

The win put the Pilots (57-0) two wins away from the 2025 NAIA Baseball Red Banner.

Isaac Rohde’s complete-game, four-hit shutout was his second win in the 2025 Series, now 16-0 on the year, striking out 10. Ryan Davenport (2-for-3), Vantrell Reed (2-for-3), and Jose Sallorin (2-for-2) had multi-hit games for the Pilots, and Sallorin drove in three.

LSU Shreveport set an early tone for the game with five runs in the first inning, beginning with a pair of doubles – from Davenport and Josh Gibson – and Jackson Syring added a single to score Gibson. Two more runs came home on an Ian Montz groundout and Sallorin’s single, a two-run hit to make it 5-0.

Anthony Swenda homered on the first pitch of the bottom of the fourth to the opposite field in right to push the Pilots in front 6-0, and with two on in scoring position, Austin Gomm lifted a sacrifice fly, followed by a run-scoring single by Reed.

Up 8-0, the Pilots scored two more in the fifth and the lead swelled to 10. LSUS held Southeastern to one hit until the sixth inning, when the Fire put runners at the corners with two outs, but Rohde was able to stop the threat, drawing a pop fly off the bat of Connor Hicks to end the inning.

Southeastern is still alive, taking on Georgia Gwinnett Thursday at 3 p.m. PT.  Jon Paul Penella, Charlie Collins, Alfonso Villalobos, and Peter Tassler had hits for the Fire, who fell to 46-14.

LSUS meets Hope International (Calif.) Thursday at 6:30 p.m. Both games will air live on the NAIA Network and Urban Edge Network at www.naia.org/watch.
