LSU head coach Kim Mulkey joined UConn's Geno Auriemma in voicing her displeasure over the super regional format.
No. 3 seed LSU traveled over 2,000 miles away from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, for its Sweet 16 matchup against No. 2 seed NC State in Spokane, Washington. The Lady Tigers defeated the Wolfpack 80-73 following a dominant 30-point, 19-rebound performance from Aneesah Morrow. LSU advanced to the Elite Eight for the third consecutive year to face No. 1 overall seed UCLA. The regional winner will then make a cross-country trip to Tampa Bay, Florida, for the Final Four, which tips off Friday.
