On the final day of the regular season, the LSU women’s basketball team (25-4, 13-3) wrapped up the No. 2 seed in this week’s upcoming SEC Tournament with a 57-54 win over Tennessee.
Early on it looked like LSU would cruise toward the win going up by as many as 18 points in the first half. But Tennessee’s defense flummoxed LSU in the second half switching back from zone to man and held the Tigers to just five made baskets in the entire third and fourth quarters. LSU was only able to manage a single point over the game’s final 5:22.
