🎓 TIP OF THE CAP

🎥 LSU+: DEFYING THE ODDS

LSU's ace starting pitchers Kade Anderson and Anthony Eyanson have
felt the fruits of their labor from the offseason come to life.

Eyanson have paced the Tigers' staff to be in the hunt for
a national seed come NCAA tournament time.

⚾️ TOURNEY TIME

In March, the madness happens on the court.

In May, the madness happens on the diamond and there will be no more competitive week in the country than at the SEC Tournament in Hoover, Ala.
