Complete schedule for LSU baseball vs. West Virginia in Baton Rouge Super Regiona
LSU baseball takes one step closer to Omaha by starting its super regional series against West Virginia on Saturday.
The two sides made it out of last weekend's regional round. The Mountaineers, who traveled to Clemson, knocked off the host once and Kentucky twice en route to advancing. The Tigers needed a come-from-behind effort to defeat Little Rock in an elimination game to save their season.
LSU likely sends its one-two punch of starting pitchers to the mound for the opening two games. Kade Anderson and Anthony Eyanson will be ready to go as the Tigers hope to close out the series early in front of what's sure to be a rowdy Alex Box Stadium.
The Mountaineers will likely start the first game with their All-Big 12 First-Team battery of catcher Logan Sauve and pitcher Griffin Kirn. Second-teamer Jack Kartsonas will fill in the other starting spot. The offense scored 22 runs over the last two contests while the pitching staff surrendered 18 runs.
Here's the weekend schedule for the Baton Rouge Super Regional between LSU and West Virginia.

Keep an eye out for this former West Virginia high school player in the NBA Finals
OKLAHOMA CITY (WBOY) — If you tuned in to Game 1 of the 2025 NBA Finals on Thursday night, you may have seen Indiana Pacer Thomas Bryant on the hardwood, a player who spent the formative years of his career right here in West Virginia. Bryant was born in Rochester, New York, but he spent most of his high school career at Huntington Prep School, where he averaged 17.3 points per game in his senior campaign with the Irish, ending with a 29-3 record, according to MaxPreps. Bryant was recruited out of high school in 2015 by Indiana University and spent two seasons with the Hoosiers, starting 69 games and ending with a 45-24 record, according to College Basketball Reference. That 2015 Hoosier squad also made it to the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Tournament, but lost to North Carolina. Following his sophomore season, Bryant entered his name into the 2017 NBA Draft, where he was selected in the second round (42nd overall) by the Utah Jazz, according to Basketball Reference. He never made his debut for the Jazz, nor did he spend that long with the team, as he was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers on that same day for Tony Bradley. The center officially began his NBA career for the Lakers on Dec. 23, 2017, in a loss to Portland. WVU Baseball vs. No. 6 LSU: How to watch Following the 2017–18 season, Bryant was traded around the league, spending stints with Washington, Miami and Denver, which won the NBA Finals in 2023 with Bryant on the roster. He was traded from Miami to the Indiana Pacers in December 2024 and has been a significant contributor from the Indiana bench behind starting center Myles Turner. Bryant made eight regular-season starts since being traded to the Pacers, and he put up a 39-17 record during Indiana's march to the NBA Playoffs. As of Friday, Bryant has played in 15 of the Pacers' 17 playoff games. During Game 1 against Oklahoma City on Thursday, Bryant only saw the court for eight minutes, but he shot the ball perfectly, going 2-2 on his field goal attempts and making his one three-pointer in the win for Indiana, per ESPN. You can catch Game 2 of the NBA Finals on Sunday, June 8, at 8 p.m. on WBOY-ABC. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Spiker Farms Bull Ride showcases national riders in Jane Lew
JANE LEW, (WBOY) — While many associate championship bull riding with states like Texas or Arizona, the sport is very much alive and thriving in the heart of the Mountain State. Spiker Farms, located just outside Jane Lew, hosted the opening night of its highly anticipated annual Championship Bull Ride on Friday evening. This growing tradition, which began as a grassroots effort by a member of the Spiker family, has evolved into a premier regional event drawing professional bull riders from across the United States. Around 20 riders competed on Friday, each testing their skill and grit against some of the toughest bulls in the circuit. 'We're putting on a high-quality event with good riders, good bulls, there's a lot of options and things for kids to do, good vendors. And they've just got something right in their back door, they can come and have a good time,' the Arena Director John Spiker Organizers said the event continues to expand in both attendance and reputation each year, with the Spiker family proud to carry on a tradition that blends sport, community, and Appalachian heritage. In addition to the main event, attendees enjoyed a festive atmosphere complete with fresh sweet corn and a variety of family-friendly activities designed to entertain guests of all ages. 'My job is to entertain the crowd, keep them involved, make sure they're having a good time. Anytime there is a lull moment or dull moment where the bull may lay down or something may happen, it's my job to step in and fill in that time span,' a Rodeo Clown at Spiker's Farm, Brett Carpenter, said. 'You know, if we can take someone for an hour and half, hour forty-five minutes, and make them laugh and forget about their time at home or forget about some bad times, that's more of why were out here.' If you missed Friday's action, there's still time to experience the excitement. The second night of the Championship Bull Ride will take place Saturday at 7 p.m. at Spiker Farms.

City of Weston holds Carp Fishing Tournament
WESTON, (WBOY) — The City of Weston is reeling in anglers of all ages for its Carp Fishing Tournament this weekend along the West Fork River and its tributaries below Stonewall Dam. The event is held in conjunction with West Virginia's Free Fishing Days, which allows participants to compete without a fishing license. All participants must be at least 15 years old or accompanied by an adult to register for the competition. 'All weekend it is free fishing weekend for West Virginia, so you don't have to have a license this weekend to fish. So, it's a great opportunity to come out and catch a carp,' the City of Weston Parks and Recreation Director and Assistant City Clerk, Laura Anderson, said. The competition is a live catch-and-release tournament, and all carp must be weighed live by the final deadline of 4 p.m. on Saturday, June 7. The winner will be determined by the largest carp caught, measured by natural weight. The grand prize is a West Virginia Lifetime Hunting and Fishing License. 'Kids have a lot of fun when it comes to fishing, and they always have. It's an easy, enjoyable pastime and it brings that family together,' Anderson said. 'The kids, when they catch even the small fish it's exciting.' Lewis County welcomes new Dunkin' in Weston Organizers remind competitors that all West Virginia state fishing regulations must be observed throughout the tournament. So, whether you're a seasoned angler or a first-time fisherman, the free fishing weekend promises a fun way to enjoy the great outdoors in Weston and around the state. During the competition, the expectations for fish handling are: Land fish and remove hooks quickly to reduce time out of water. -Keep fish off the carpet and bottom of the boat to avoid injury. Wet hands and measuring tools before handling fish. Clean and disinfect live wells and weigh-in bags before each tournament to prevent disease spread. Run water pumps in live wells continually; use ice on hot days to lower temperatures. Do not alter water temperatures by more than 5 degrees from the tournament lake/river. Vent live well lids regularly for gas exchange. Handle larger fish with two hands, supporting them horizontally. Use rubber or nylon nets to protect fish slime coats. Ensure live well capacity is at least 1 gallon per pound of fish. Keep fish in live wells during weigh-ins as long as possible; avoid extended use of weigh-in bags. Never place filled weigh-in bags on hot surfaces to prevent temperature increase. The competition kicked off Friday night and wraps up Saturday night. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
