The LSU women’s basketball team grabbed sole possession of second place in the SEC with a 66-61 win over Florida Sunday afternoon in front of a sold out PMAC.
The win pushes LSU’s record to 23-4 overall and 11-3 in conference. LSU also clinched a double-bye for the SEC Tournament in Nashville which will run from March 3-6.
Many times this season the LSU backcourt of Khayla Pointer, Alexis Morris, and Jailin Cherry has been the difference for LSU. Sunday was different however as Faustine Aifuwa and Autumn Newby were the difference makers and carried the Tigers in spite of the collective shooting woes from the guards.
