🔼 Tigers vs. ‘Cats. The men’s basketball team needs you to pack the PMAC as they host No. 17 Kentucky tonight! The Tigers have all the momentum after taking down No. 11 South Carolina on the road over the weekend. The Wildcats are riding a two-game win-streak after beating Ole Miss and Auburn last week. Tip-off is at 8 pm and you can get your tickets here, or watch on ESPN.

🔼 Special Treatment. For the first time in her career, Aleah Finnegan was named SEC Co-Specialist of the Week! She took home the vault and floor titles during Friday’s meet against No. 12 Auburn. She scored a 9.50 on vault and a perfect 10 on the floor. She now has 18 titles in her career.

🔼  Captains Of The Course. Nobody was close to beating the LSU women’s golf team on the final day of the Moon Golf Invitational! How dominant were they? The Tigers finished at -14, with the second place Auburn Tigers being at +2. They shot -11 in the final round yesterday, with three Tigers scoring in the upper 60’s. Ingrid Lindblad and Aine Donegan tied for second-place individually, while Latanna Stone finished in eighth.
