Louisiana Tech baseball, softball and soccer will be displaced for the coming season, after an EF-3 tornado tore through Ruston, La., back in April, claiming two lives and decimating the school’s sports facilities.

According to the News Star, Tech baseball stadium J.C. Love Field, the Lady Techster Softball complex and soccer stadiums were all left unusable. Athletic director Tommy McClelland said he thinks the school will collect between $17 and $22 million in insurance money, as well as FEMA disaster relief funds. Beyond that, the school will likely have to look to the state of Louisiana for assistance to completely rebuild the facilities.
