Coach Mulkey’s Tigers are now 10-0 in Thanksgiving tournaments, while the 77-point win is the biggest margin of victory outside of Pete Maravich Assembly Center in program history.

🔼 Defensive Effort. Amiya Joyner earned Defensive Player of the Game honors for LSU women’s basketball during the win over Washington State. Joyner finished with 12 rebounds, five deflections, and wrangled four loose balls.

🔼 Go Bowling. LSU football fell to No. 8 Oklahoma in a tightly contested battle on Saturday afternoon on the road.
