Tylor Ongwae recorded a double-double Saturday night but it was not enough as ULM fell to the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, 66-50, inside the Cajundome.

Ongwae led ULM (7-10, 4-5) with 16 points and 11 rebounds in the final regular season matchup against ULL (13-9, 4-5).

The Warhawks trailed by just three at the break (24-21), but the Ragin’ Cajuns were able to take a 40-30 lead with 12:56 to play in the game. ULM used a 6-0 spurt to climb within four (40-36) as Kyle Koszuta canned back-to-back triples.

The homestanding Cajuns were able to push the lead back to 10 and ULM was unable to get any closer than eight in the final minutes as the two Louisiana programs each won on their home courts during the regular season home-and-home series.

Elfrid Payton led UL Lafayette with 28 total points.

ULM will return to action Thursday with a road tilt at Texas State in San Marcos, Texas.
