The Climb - Presented by Baton Rouge Super Chevy Dealers. It's in the face of adversity where LSU Gymnastics finds its true identity. After suffering an Achilles tear during an elite competition last summer, sophomore Konner McClain finds her strength in being able to get back on the mat for her team. Together the Tigers get through the ups and downs of the season with poise and resilience.

The YETI Game Changer of the Week is women’s basketball’s Mikaylah Williams! She had a breakout week, averaging 29.5 points per game. In the Tigers’ win over No. 13 Oklahoma, the sophomore scored 37 points plus seven rebounds, five assists, and three steals. Against Mississippi State, she scored 22 points with four assists.

🔼 She’s Coming Home. LSU will host Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky for a WNBA Preseason Game against the Brazil National Team on May 2! Reese will make her return to the PMAC after an incredible collegiate career. Tickets will be available on LSUtix.net at a later date.

“It will be amazing to return to Baton Rouge, a community that means so much to me. LSU was instrumental in preparing me for the WNBA and I can’t wait to hit the court in front of both Tiger and Sky fans!”

- Angel Reese
