Thanks to a season-high 27 points from Hailey Van Lith, LSU (24-4, 11-3) beat the Lady Vols in Knoxville Sunday, 75-60.
After losing back-to-back games against South Carolina and Mississippi State, LSU has strung together six straight wins. LSU’s defense is starting to come alive over the last month; the Tigers have held opponents to an average of 63 points over the last six games.
The LSU defense was instrumental in closing out Tennessee Sunday. The Tigers and Vols were in a tight game all the way into the fourth quarter, but LSU closed the game on a 18-5 run.
