Baker, Bockler double down in Louisiana Tech’s 24-0 win over UL Monroe

Blake Baker delivered a stellar performance, connecting for 178 yards and two touchdowns, both to tight end Brayden Bockler, as Louisiana Tech secured a 24-0 victory over Louisiana-Monroe on Saturday night. After a scoreless first half, Louisiana Tech took the lead in the third quarter with Sergio Snider's 5-yard touchdown run, extending their lead to 7-0 with 11 minutes and 54 seconds left on the clock.

Baker then orchestrated an 11-play, 66-yard drive that concluded with his second touchdown pass to Bockler, widening the margin to 21-0. The Bulldogs closed out the scoring with Kaegan Kent's 21-yard field goal with 3:47 remaining in the game. Quarterback Aidan Armenta struggled, throwing for 119 yards with two interceptions for the Warhawks (0-6, 0-2).

This marked Louisiana Tech's first shutout win since opening the 2025 season with a 24-0 triumph over Southeastern Louisiana. Louisiana Tech will face Old Dominion in their next game, while Louisiana-Monroe travels to Troy in pursuit of their first victory this season.
