After a three-game sweep at the Houston College Classic this weekend, the LSU baseball team moved up one slot to No. 1 in the Baseball America College Top 25, the website revealed Monday.
The Tigers (15-1) defeated then-No. 8 Houston , 4-2, on Friday before wrapping up the weekend sweep with victories against Baylor, 2-0, on Saturday and Nebraska, 4-2, on Sunday.
LSU has reeled off 12 consecutive wins since falling to Nicholls State in the fourth game of the season Feb. 18. During that span, the Tigers have outscored their opponents by 59 runs (90-31) and have allowed only three teams to score more than three runs.
LSU has scored at least seven runs in eight of its last 12 games.
After a weekend in Minute Maid Park, the Tigers will return to Alex Box Stadium against McNeese State on Wednesday before opening Southeastern Conference play with a home series against Ole Miss this weekend.
