SHREVEPORT, La. -- LSU Shreveport (28-0, 15-0 RRAC) dominated on the mound and at the plate Saturday, completing a three-game sweep over LSU Alexandria with an 11-3 win in game one and a 10-3 victory in game two of a doubleheader at Pilots Field.

A five-run second inning propelled LSUS to a commanding lead, with Ryan Davenport, Josh Gibson, and Anthony Swenda each driving in runs before Vantrel Reed and Tamden Webb-Tate extended the lead.
