Louisiana State is heading to its first championship game in program history after a rousing fourth quarter rally against top-seeded Virginia Tech, 79-72.
The Tigers, which fell behind by as many as 12 points, flipped the game completely in the last 10 minutes, coming out of the break following the third quarter with an immediate push. L.S.U. scored 15 points straight at one point to not only erase its deficit but to take a 10-point lead with less than four minutes left, behind the Tigers’ hungry forward, Angel Reese, who had transferred to the school from Maryland this season.
