Players from both Eunice High School and St. Edmund earned positions on the 2018 All-Parish baseball team as voted on by the St. Landry Parish head coaches.
The Eunice High Bobcats claimed the top two honors, with Bobcat head coach Scott Phillips named as Parish Coach of the Year and Jayden Brasseaux named as Most Valuable Player in the parish.
Phillips directed the Bobcats to a 29-10 overall record, the most wins in progam history.
No. 5 Eunice opened the playoffs with a 15-5 win over No. 28 Avoyelles.

The annual LSU Eunice baseball awards night had an added level of excitement as the Bengals celebrated its national championship.
“It is hard to believe that a small two-year institution located in rural southwest Louisiana would be the home of the six-time NJCAA Division II baseball champions,” LSUE chancellor Kimberly Russell said.
“We have won more baseball national championships than any other team in the country.
“We are celebrating winners tonight,” she added. “They are winners in the classroom, on the field and in life.”
