The Privateers (4-3) won their second consecutive series to begin the season when they defeated the Evansville Purple Aces during the first two days. Evansville avoided the sweep by winning the series finale on Sunday.

The Green Wave is currently on a three-game skid after being swept by UC Irvine for the second straight season. Shortstop Marcus Cline had a good series against the Anteaters and now leads the Green Wave with his .368 batting average. Second baseman Connor Rasmussen paces the team in RBI with nine.

The Privateers have won the Pelican Cup three times in four seasons it was contested since it returned in 2018. The Privateers won the series in '18, '19 and '23. Tulane won the Cup in 2022.
