Mississippi State Takes Down Ole Miss 5-1 to Claim the Governor’s Cup
STARKVILLE, Miss. —The Mississippi State Bulldogs defeated the Ole Miss Rebels 5-1 and secured their second straight Governors Cup victory. Pico Kohn drew the start for MSU, and he pitched well. The Alabama native is working his way back from Tommy John surgery and has improved in each start.
Kohn threw four innings and got five strikeouts. His only blemish came in the top of the second inning as Rebel’s third baseman, Judd Utermark, hit a solo home run over the left-field wall.
The Bulldog offense scuffled; they loaded the bases in the bottom of the first, but the designated hitter Amani Larry flew out to end the inning. They did not put much together until the bottom of the fifth as catcher Joe Powell singled, and Dakota Jordan got his third hit to set up the red-hot Hunter Hines.
The Madison, Mississippi native delivered as he dropped a single into center field to drive in Powell. Karson Ligon took over on the mound for Kohn, and the Miami transfer threw 1.2 scoreless innings.
State needs all the help they can get in the bullpen, and Ligon has the talent to be valuable to this staff. Cam Schuelke replaced Ligon and threw 1.2 innings but walked his last two batters.
Tyler Davis came in to handle the two-out jam and got a strikeout. MSU got lead-off singles in the sixth and seventh innings but failed to drive in a run.
Part of that was bad luck as Bryce Chance lined a lead-off single into center field, and David Mershon smashed a ball, but Ole Miss first baseman Will Furniss made a diving grab and tagged Chance to end the threat. However, State finally took the lead, and a hustle play by Connor Hujsak proved to be the difference.
Hujsak was hit by the pitch and moved to third on a wild pitch that went all the way to the screen. Larry walked, and Logan Kohler grounded into a fielder’s choice to give MSU their first lead of the game.
Chance worked a bases-loaded walk to extend the lead, and Mershon broke the game open with a two-RBI double. Tyson Hardin came in to close the game
This win was essential for the Bulldogs on their route to hosting a regional, and once again, they got clutch hits to separate late in the game, something they struggled with early in the season. State now must prepare for a massive weekend series against Alabama at Dudy Noble Field.

Eight tornadoes confirmed in Louisiana and Mississippi from Post-Tropical Cyclone Arthur storms
NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) – The National Weather Service has confirmed eight tornadoes touched down across Louisiana and Mississippi on June 18th, 2026, with damage surveys revealing significant impacts to homes, businesses, and infrastructure.
The survey work continues on several areas, including Eden Isle, where meteorologists are analyzing whether additional weak tornadoes occurred within widespread wind damage.
The NWS has asked for patience as crews complete their analysis, with the next update expected Monday, June 22.
A busy morning of severe weather
The tornado activity began early Thursday morning around 2:49 a.m. and continued through the morning hours, with the last confirmed tornado occurring around 8:12 a.m.
The storms primarily impacted the greater New Orleans area, including parts of Jefferson Parish, Orleans Parish, and St. Tammany Parish in Louisiana, as well as Hancock and Harrison counties in Mississippi.
The damage: eight confirmed tornadoes
Houma area hit hardest
Four of the eight confirmed tornadoes touched down in the Houma area, with a fourth nearby.
The most significant damage in Houma came from an EF-1 tornado that tracked through the city around 3:47 a.m., producing winds up to 95 mph.
This tornado damaged the Lynn Park Shopping Center, where nearly every window was damaged, and interior walls partially collapsed. Four homes sustained partial to significant roof loss, and one home had an exterior wall collapse.
Another EF-1 tornado in the same area tossed a truck 30 feet and caused significant damage. Multiple trees were snapped and uprooted, with several homes sustaining partial roof loss, and at least one carport collapsed.
An EF-1 tornado causes significant roof damage to two homes on Crozier Drive, and at least one exterior wall collapsed on each.
An EF-0 tornado also impacted the McCord area of Houma, damaging trees, several homes, and electrical poles.
Long-track tornado from St. Tammany Parish to Mississippi
The most significant tornado of the day was an EF-1 that traveled 12.42 miles from Treasure Isle in St. Tammany Parish to rural Hancock County, Mississippi. With maximum winds of 105 mph and a width of up to 300 yards, this tornado caused extensive damage across its path.
The tornado flipped a large boat near Treasure Isle and progressed northeast, removing shingles from homes and snapping trees along Bluegill Drive.
As it moved into Avery Estates, the tornado grew in size and strengthened, uprooting numerous trees along U.S. Highway 190 and damaging several outbuildings. A manufactured home had most of its roof removed and was shifted significantly off its foundation.
The tornado maintained strength as it moved over the Pearl River Basin before weakening as it approached Hancock County, where ground survey teams documented widespread tree damage on rural roads.
Additional tornadoes
An EF-1 tornado tracked 7.26 miles from Bridge City through New Orleans to the University of New Orleans area around 5:43 a.m., producing winds up to 95 mph. Damage was primarily tree damage and minor building damage across the city.
A brief EF-1 tornado touched down north of Highway 90 in Avondale, injuring two people. The tornado tracked northeast with home damage and snapped tree branches. One home sustained damage when another mobile home rolled into it. The wind speeds were estimated to be 90 mph.
An EF-1 tornado also tracked across Hancock and Harrison counties in Mississippi, with widespread tree damage, including several large trees uprooted and snapped. Minor damage occurred to several properties along the 6.38-mile path.
No Fatalities Reported
Despite the significant damage from eight tornadoes, no fatalities were reported. However, two injuries were reported in the Avondale area.
All information in this report is preliminary and subject to change pending final review and publication in NWS Storm Data.
