Basketball Falls to VCU in Final Atlantis Game

PARADISE ISLAND, Bahamas – The LSU men’s basketball team finished the Battle 4 Atlantis with a 1-2 record after falling to VCU, 85-74, Friday evening in the fifth place game of the tournament.

The Tigers offense was able to get its 74 points off nearly 49 percent field goal shooting, but was unable to get enough consecutive stops to make up a deficit that stretched to as much as 19 points with 7:36 to play in the contest.

LSU falls to 4-2 on the year heading back to Baton Rouge for a Tuesday night 8 p.m. home game with Houston, while VCU is now 5-1 on the year.
