Mr. Wade Simoneaux

Work:
Home Phone: -- Assistant Baseball Coach 1995-2001 on the Robichaux staff. Became the Head Baseball Coach at La. Tech University in 2001. CajunBlog: Wade comes back to visit third-base buddies It’s a pretty good bet that the guys sitting down the Moore Field third-base line won’t be quite as supportive of Wade Simoneaux tonight. Simoneaux was Tony Robichaux’s top assistant through the program’s glory years from 1997-2000, when UL won a Sun Belt regular-season title (1997), the league’s tournament title (1998), won an NCAA Regional to advance to its first-ever Super Regional (1999) and climbed the highest ladder in making the College World Series field and finishing tied for third nationally (2000). He was a fixture as the Cajuns’ third-base coach during that time, and developed a loyal following in the third-base bleacher seats with an aggressive style. Suffice it to say that Wade didn’t hold many runners when they rounded third base. He left to take over a struggling Louisiana Tech program, a rebuilding job that took a while. But the ‘Dogs had a 33-25 record last year and have jumped out to an 11-5 start in Simoneaux’s fifth season, and he’ll be going for his 100th win as Tech head coach Tuesday night when the Bulldogs come to Lafayette to take on the unbeaten Cajuns at 6:30 p.m. “I talked to Tony this week, and I used something he used to say all the time,” Simoneaux said Monday. “He said that nobody ever went undefeated in a college baseball season, and I told him they were due to have their loss. “But those guys (UL) can pitch and swing the bats. They’re a very good team.”
