Youngsville sailor builds confidence while serving aboard Navy destroyer

For Youngsville native Cynthia Laborde, joining the U.S. Navy was about more than seeing the world or serving her country. It was about setting an example, honoring her family's support and proving to herself that she could succeed in one of the nation's most demanding professions. Now serving aboard the guided-missile destroyer USS Mahan out of Naval Station Norfolk, Virginia , the 2023 Marksville High School graduate is quickly adapting to life at sea while representing Acadiana on a global stage. Laborde joined the Navy just 10 months ago, motivated in part by a desire to be a role model for her younger brothers. “I want to provide a positive role model for both of my brothers since they are 18 now,” Laborde said. “I think it's important to set the best example I can.” That drive to lead by example was instilled at an early age by her mother, who encouraged her to push through challenges and maintain high expectations for herself. “My mom has always held me to a high standard with everything I ever did,” Laborde said. “Because of her, I recognize that I can do hard things and succeed.” Today, Laborde serves as a professional apprentice

Louisiana basketball postpones game due to 'insufficient number' of players

Much has been made of LSU's struggles to cobble together a full college basketball team in Will Wade's first year. But another team in Louisiana is having some issues of its own. In Quannas White's second season coaching the Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns, a Nov. 14 game against UNC-Wilmington has been postponed due to what the school called "an insufficient number of available student-athletes." REQUIRED READING: UCLA sets program record with 106-37 rout of Arkansas-Pine Bluff In short, there weren't enough players eligible to play. In Louisiana's statement, it added "the schools will work on rescheduling the game at a later date." USA TODAY Sports has reached out to the school for more information. White's first season was marked by struggle in Lafayette, with ULL going 11-22 (7-11 Sun Belt) in 2025. Louisiana played with nine eligible players on Nov. 9 against New Orleans, winning 56-39 after season-opening losses to Akron and Texas A&M-Corpus Christi. Louisiana will now try to shore up its roster and continue its season. Based on the statement, this is not a forfeit for the Ragin' Cajuns.
