The Climb. Presented by Baton Rouge Super Chevy Dealers | LSU Gymnastics cruises to finish the regular season with a share of the SEC title. Haleigh Bryant's mental and physical toughness pay off as she dazzles in a 1st place All-Around performance, to then hoist the SEC Championship trophy with her teammates.

🔼 Marchin’ On. The nation’s top-ranked gymnastics squad is heading to Fort Worth.

The top-ranked Tigers finished Saturday’s regional final in State College with a final score of 198.050 to claim their 15th regional championship and punch their ticket to NCAA Championships for the 34th time in program history.

No. 1 LSU (198.050) defeated No. 8 Michigan State (198.00), No. 9 Kentucky (197.625) and No. 16 Arkansas (197.325) in Saturday’s final to finish in the top two and advance to the NCAA Semifinals.

🔼 Goose Eggs Galore. While the rest of the country can’t find enough eggs for their liking, the fifth-ranked LSU baseball squad has plenty of them.

The Tigers rolled into Norman and came away with a historic sweep, not allowing a single run in any of the three victories of #9 Oklahoma and marking just the third time since 1992 that LSU did not allow a single earned run in a three-game series.

With the sweep, it marks the first time LSU has swept a top-10 team in an SEC road series since 1997 and gives the Tigers their past start through 33 games since 2013.

🔼  New Addition. The building continues.

LSU men’s hoops coach Matt McMahon announced another new addition to the Tigers for the 2025-26 roster with the addition of 2025 Summit League Player of the Year Marquel Sutton from the University of Omaha.

The 6-9 Sutton averaged 18.9 points and 7.9 rebounds in his senior season as the Mavericks won the regular season and tournament titles of the Summit League and advanced to the 2025 NCAA Tournament.

🔼 Home Sweet Home. The fifth-ranked softball squad picked up yet another SEC series victory, this time, taking two of three from #24 Alabama in the friendly confines of Tiger Park.

Two dominant pitching performances led LSU to victories of 8-0 and 2-1 in the first two game of the series to win take a series from the Crimson Tide for the third time in the past four times in Baton Rouge.
