BATON ROUGE - linktr.ee/womensbasketballall...
No. 10 LSU put together another dominant performance en route to a 99-68 win over the Arkansas Razorbacks on Sunday afternoon inside the PMAC as all five starters scored at least 13 with both Hailey Van Lith and Mikaylah Williams with 20+.
For the second game in a row LSU’s defense was strong. It was the second consecutive game LSU held its opponent under 70 points and under 30-percent shooting from the field.
“I think we’re just getting better every day and being able to switch on all five players,” Angel Reese said of the team’s defensive improvement. “I believe that is a skill to our advantage as we can switch and guard all five positions, and it is a great thing to be a part of as everybody on the team can help out defensively and do whatever is asked of them.”
Mikaylah Williams led all scorers with 21 points on 9-14 from the field and 3 three-pointers, finishing one rebound shy of a double-double. The Freshman has now recorded her sixth game scoring 20 points or more.
“She is a three-dimensional player,” Coach Kim Mulkey said of her star freshman. “She can take you off the dribble and get layups, or stop and shoot the midrange or three. She can get anywhere she needs to on the floor.”
“I believe I am learning every game how to play overall effective basketball on both sides of the court,” Williams said. “I am taking what the defense gives me but continuously trying to learn and improve my game.”
Hailey Van Lith followed with 20 points and 6 assists. Her performance marked the second time this season she has reached 20 points and set a new season high with 5 rebounds. Angel Reese recorded another double-double with 16 points and 17 boards. She now has 11 double-doubles this season and has done it six times in her last eight games.
Other Tigers to reach double figures include Aneesah Morrow with 14 and Flau’Jae Johnson with 13. LSU also had solid contributions from its bench with 15 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists.
Samara Spencer led the Razorbacks with 20 points on 5-22 and 3 three-pointers. Spencer added 7 assists and 5 rebounds. Maryam Dauda and Makaylah Daniels were the only other Razorbacks to reach double figures with 16 and 13, respectively. LSU held Saylor Poffenbarger to two rebounds after she entered the game as the SEC’s leading rebounder, averaging just shy of 13 per game.
The Razorbacks as a team continued their trend of shooting a lot of three-point shots, going 12-47 from beyond the arc.
The Tigers will be back in action on Thursday night at 7 p.m. CT as College Gameday comes to town for a top ten matchup against No. 1 South Carolina. The hour-long show will begin at 6 p.m. CT on ESPN, leading straight into tipoff on the same channel. Doors to the PMAC are expected to open earlier than normal. The Gamecocks handled their business on Sunday to remain undefeated with a 99-64 win at Texas A&M.
The show will feature Elle Duncan, Carolyn Peck, Andraya Carter, Rebecca Lobo, and Holly Rowe live from the PMAC. Lobo and Rowe will join play-by-play voice Ryan Ruocco on the call for the game. It will be the first time ESPN hosts College Gameday for a women’s game in Baton Rouge.
The Tigers started the game on a 18-0 run that saw a pair of threes and points from 4 of the 5 starters. Dauda responded with back-to-back threes to put the Razorbacks on the board. Williams finished the quarter with ten points shooting 4-5 and two triples. LSU opened the first quarter shooting 50-percent from the field. Arkansas gained ground after making four threes in the first ten minutes and ended the quarter trailing LSU 25-16.
LSU went on a 7-0 run to extend its total past the 40 point mark and give the Tigers a 22-point lead. Van Lith capped off the run with a tough finish through a foul after a Aalyah Del Rosario block led to the fast break. Makayla Daniels made the Razorbacks fifth three of the night to move back within 20 before the media timeout. Reese hit her second three-pointer as a Tiger to extend the Tigers lead and continued the LSU shooting frenzy. LSU combined for 6 of its last 7 before the final minute of the quarter. The Tigers led the Razorbacks 55-28 at halftime.
Arkansas came into the game having shot and made the most threes this year in the SEC, but LSU beat the Razorbacks at their own game in the first half. The Tigers were 7-14 from beyond the arc in the first half as four Tigers made three pointers, including three by Williams. Arkansas made 5 of its 20 attempts from beyond the arc in the first half.

Really nice to see HVL settle in for a game! And Angel hitting a 3???
The starting 5 for LSU….they just keep on getting better and better. Hailey is definitely becoming more and more comfortable and aggressive with the ball.
Thank you for all the work you do these condensed games allow the fans to watch all of the interesting games...great work😂

She is so polished
Hailey starting to get more aggressive which is making her more comfortable and a better passer, when we run the O thru Mikayla and have HVL as the second option/ BH, and playmaking with Angel dominating the boards and Morrow being that third offensive killer this team could easily go B2B
Give #20 more time, she has a quick first step and dribbles well

Flaujae needs to stop doing stupid low basketball IQ stuff. PASS TO THE OPEN PLAYER!!! Shes literally the best guard LSU has off the bounce but she needs to make better decisions. Everytime she drove, she had MK wide open, but instead of passing to the open player, she opts to take a bad shot over taller defenders, or over penetrate and turn the ball over. They all do this, but she and Aneesah are the biggest offenders. Once the defense collapses you have at least 2 open teammates on the perimeter. Pass it to the open player, make the defense shift, get easy open shots, and stop making things more difficult. The team did a better job of playing unselfishly overall this game, but they still have their moments where they just want to score instead of making the right basketball plays.

5:50 -- reaches out arm to push away defender on shoulder, no call 😂 9:11 -- imma say defender was never set, but no call either way? 😂 10:46 -- one for the highlight reel 15:30 -- many steps! 😂 Good game (though I felt sorry for my beloved Hogs before 2 and half minutes had been played) and the refs making me laugh. 😂
I’m from Arkansas and I gotta say our girls is cheeks 😂…this the 1st time I’ve ever watched them 🤦🏾♀️…def not a good showing
Razorbacks r butterfingers & no defense..
