March Madness 2025: Aneesah Morrow leads No. 3 LSU rallying back to beat No. 2 NC State, reach Elite Eight

Aneesah Morrow almost single-handedly kept LSU in it on Friday night.

Thanks to her huge outing, and a perfect finish for the team at Spokane Arena in Washington, the Tigers are headed to the Elite Eight.

Morrow led the Tigers to a comeback 80-73 win over NC State in their Sweet 16 matchup on Friday. She dropped 30 points and 19 rebounds and shot 12-of-25 from the field, which accounted for more than a third of the team's made field goals.

LSU took an early 11-point lead on Friday night, but the Tigers scored just two points in the final three minutes of the opening quarter to leave the door open.
