Four Acadiana Teams Compete In The LHSAA State Baseball Championships

SULPHUR, La. (KPEL-AM) - The 2025 LHSAA Baseball State Tournament is taking place May 13-17 at McMurry Park in Sulphur, Louisiana. The Acadiana area is well represented, as four teams from the area are still in the hunt for state championships.

The structure of this year's playoffs was a bit different from years past. The new format featured best-of-three series throughout the playoffs for Divisions I-III (Select and Non-Select). Meanwhile, Division IV (Select and Non-Select), along with Classes B and C, only played single-elimination games throughout. That will continue through their respective semifinal and final games.
