The LSU women’s basketball team, led by the legendary Kim Mulkey, has landed in a familiar position as the NCAA Tournament field has been set. The Tigers, who have been one of the most dominant teams in the country all season, have earned a No. 1 seed in the tournament and will look to make a deep run in the postseason.
Mulkey, who has led the Tigers to unprecedented success since her arrival in Baton Rouge, is no stranger to the NCAA Tournament. She has led her teams to numerous Final Four appearances and has won multiple national championships throughout her illustrious career.
“I’m proud of our team for earning a No. 1 seed in the tournament,” Mulkey said. “We’ve worked hard all season to get to this point, and we’re excited to see what the postseason holds for us.”
The Tigers, who finished the regular season with a 28-2 record, have been led by a strong core of players, including Angel Reese, LaDazhia Williams, and Alexis Morris. Reese, a dominant force in the paint, has averaged 23.1 points and 12.6 rebounds per game, while Williams has chipped in with 14.5 points and 7.3 rebounds per contest. Morris, a talented point guard, has averaged 12.3 points and 5.5 assists per game.
“Angel, LaDazhia, and Alexis have been incredible leaders for our team all season,” Mulkey said. “They’ve worked hard to develop their skills and have been instrumental in our success.”
LSU’s road to the Final Four will not be easy, however. The Tigers will face a tough test in the first round of the tournament, as they take on the winner of the play-in game between Longwood and Mount St. Mary’s.
“We know that every game in the tournament is going to be a challenge,” Mulkey said. “We’ll need to be focused and prepared to take on whatever opponent we face.”
Despite the challenges that lie ahead, the Tigers are confident in their abilities and are looking forward to making a deep run in the tournament.
“We’ve worked hard all season to get to this point, and we’re excited to see what the postseason holds for us,” Mulkey said. “We’re going to take it one game at a time and see how far we can go.”
