Louisiana Returns Home to Host Arkansas State

The Ragin’ Cajuns are home for the first time since August 31
LAFAYETTE - After three in a row on the road, the Louisiana soccer team returns to the Home Bank Soccer and Track Complex to host Arkansas State on Thursday night.
Louisiana looks to get back in the win column for the first time since its 2-0 win over UTRGV on September 28. The Cajuns hope a return to their home pitch sparks the offense that has been held to just two goals over the last four games. Louisiana has been a strong offensive team at home, scoring eight times in three contests.
Arkansas State is playing in just its third road contest of 2025, losing to Oklahoma State and drawing with UT Martin. The Red Wolves have already surpassed their scoring output from last year, thanks in large part to a 10-0 win over Arkansas-Pine Bluff back on September 7.
