I remember Yvette talking to us one time about how money that Alfred Lamson would donate to USL softball was getting taken by the USL admin and used for something else.


This was a pain in the arse for a lot of donations under Authement. All donations even ones that were specifically purposed from the donor had to go into the University foundation and then those different entities which were to benefit from the donations would have to request that money which had to be approved by Authement and Co.

I went to see Ken Seibold at Bell's on Johnston to order some stuff one time and there was a big pile of equipment in boxes in the corner of the warehouse. I asked him what was that, who was it for and he said that is Lamson's bi-annual donation to USL Softball

Yvette wanted the bleachers fixed at Lady Cajun Softball Park so Lamson bought the bleachers, sent out a crew, they took down the old bleachers and set up the new ones. There was a big load of scrap from the old bleachers and Yvette had to call the USL Sanitation Dept to come get it because it was University Property and they couldnt just haul it off. Good times

Bingo.

Ray Authement and Ray Blanco are the main reason why Cajun athletics was down to bare bones by the early 2000s. Wouldn’t piss on them if they were on fire.
