LSU makes third straight Elite Eight behind dominant Morrow

SPOKANE, WASH. -- Fifth-year LSU senior Aneesah Morrow did not want Friday to be the final game of her standout NCAA career. Neither did her teammates.

On a night where leading scorer Flau'Jae Johnson was limited to three points on 1-of-8 shooting and finished the game experiencing double vision on the sideline after a fall, Morrow carried the Tigers for much of the way. The third member of LSU's big three, Mikaylah Williams, then took over down the stretch as the Tigers rallied from a three-point deficit in the final two minutes to beat NC State 80-73 and advance to the Elite Eight for a third consecutive year.
