  • Yvette Girouard Head Co
    Head Coach INTRO THIS IS LSU THE GIROUARD COACHES TIGERS REVIEW PHILOSOPHY HISTORY RECORDS I believe fully in trying to instill in LSU our athletes a knowledge and a love MEDIA for the qualities and virtues that comprise good character. Character is what we are inside. It is often revealed by how we act when no one is looking. Winning in our program should occur both on the field as well as in the classroom, in society and in personal lives after Tiger softball. When our players leave our program, hopefully we have developed successful people that will feel that their Tiger family will always have a unique and lasting place in their hearts.

    La FALL 2019 FALL ENDURING TALES The Smithsonian comes calling for compelling storytellers In 2003, I interviewed Dr. Darryl Felder, a UL Lafayette biology professor. In the course of our conversation, he casually mentioned that he had discovered a new species of crustacean. Wait a minute. A new species? To me, that sounded like a big deal. Isn’t that worthy of media attention? I asked. He shrugged. Scientists make discoveries all the time, he said. Even if his discovery were worthy of news coverage, he continued, he didn’t have time to talk with reporters. There was too much else to do. He was frequently traveling to far-off places for his research, while juggling teaching and mentoring students. EDITOR’S NOTE EDITOR’S As the years went by, I kept up with some of his work, which included coediting a massive book that is a detailed inventory of marine life in the Gulf of Mexico. Along with other UL Lafayette faculty members, he later studied the effects of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill there. What I didn’t realize is that, Felder, some of his colleagues, and some students were steadily contributing to the University’s massive Zoological Crustacean Collection. Over 40 years, they amassed 100,000 specimens of 2,000 species from the Caribbean Sea, the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and the Gulf of Mexico, such as the batwing coral crab featured on the cover of this issue. Felder retired in 2014 but continued to curate the collection. The significance of those specimens lies in their DNA and what it continues to convey to scientists.
