Justin Robichaux Joins Louisiana Softball

Louisiana Softball head coach Gerry Glasco filled an assistant coach position on his staff with an individual deeply rooted in the Ragin’ Cajuns culture, announcing the hiring of Justin Robichaux on Wednesday. Robichaux, a 2011 graduate of the University, returns to his alma mater, where he last served as the director of operations for Louisiana Baseball under the leadership of his father and coaching legend Tony Robichaux.

 
 

He has been working with and providing pitching instruction for male and female elite-level athletes for the past 10-plus years, preparing for the opportunity to enter the collegiate coaching ranks. Coach Glasco said:

 
 

“We are thrilled to add Justin to our staff. He not only brings the expertise and experience of being a pitcher and a pitching coach, but is also a man known for building players. His values of family and growing his players will be a tremendous asset for our program. Justin is a Ragin’ Cajun through and through. We are excited that he has the opportunity to pass along the history and pride of our University through our student-athletes.”

 
 

Robichaux competed for the Ragin’ Cajuns on the baseball diamond from 2007-10, developing into one of the Sun Belt’s top pitchers – with the top earned run average (fourth-lowest in the nation) by a full point as a junior in 2009 – while crafting the program’s single-season record and career record for saves.
