The Acadiana Cane Cutters are looking to bounce back this season. Last season, The Cane Cutters entered the 2023 campaign as reigning champions, and it showed as they were first in the Texas Collegiate League (TCL) through the first eight games of the season. Unfortunately, the Cane Cutters would miss the playoffs, but the 2022 TCL champions are out for revenge. Head Coach Darien Dukes returns for his fourth season with the club and looks to instill a championship mentality in his team. Some familiar faces will also be returning for the Cane Cutters, which includes outfielder Emil Estrella, and pitchers Gavin LeBlanc, Miles Justin, J.C Acosta, Trent Hillen, and Troy Morel.

There will also be plenty of opportunities for the kids to get involved, including the Field of Dreams experience, where kids get to warm up and take the field with the players during pre-game introductions and go into the dugout before the game. Kids can also hold their birthday party at Fabacher Field, which includes ten tickets, a happy birthday announcement, and a one-on-one with our mascot, Eddy (birthday cake is included).
