Shawn Semple fired six innings of two-hit shutout ball before the skies opened up in the middle of the sixth inning with New Orleans leading Southern, 5-0. The game was called about 15 minutes later after a consistent deluge and no promise of a letup in the near future.
Newcomer Tristan Clarke led what might have become an offensive assault, going 2-for-3 with 2 RBI in his first Division I game.
