Good morning! It’s always a good morning when two Tigers, former and current, qualify for the 2024 Olympics!
What else did we pour into today’s Brew?
🥎 Kelley Lynch’s no-hitter
🏐 Defended Death Volley
🐯 And much, much more!
Behind The Scenes. Come with us behind the scenes of an ESPN Softball Production. Julia Fecke, Taylor Brooks, and Dan Kaufman take us through what it takes to produce and broadcast a LSU Softball game.
📈 STOCK UP
🔼 That’s A No-No. LSU softball took down Auburn 2-0 on Saturday behind Kelley Lynch’s first career seven-inning no-hitter. She tossed a season-high nine strikeouts in the no-no. McKenzie Redoutey drove in the Tigers’ two runs in the third inning with a home run. The Tigers fell in Friday and Sunday’s games.
🔼 Oui, Jere. LSU swimmer Jere Hribar has qualified for the 2024 Paris Olympics! He'‘ll represent his home country of Croatia after qualifying at the 2024 Speedo Canadian Swimming Open over the weekend. The freshman received All-American honors in the 50-yard free and sits No. 2 in the LSU record book in the 50 and 100-yard freestyles.
🔼 Our House. The Battle on the Bayou beach volleyball tournament was all LSU as the ninth-ranked Tigers went 4-0 throughout the weekend. They defeated Jacksonville, UNO, ULM, and SLU on Friday and Saturday. The Sandy Tigs swept all four opponents, 5-0.
“This weekend was fun. We played well and really embraced the last home weekend. There were lots of fantastic performances, and the energy was amazing. We are excited that all our seniors ended their time in Death Volley with wins.”
🔼 Perfect Match. The women’s golf team finished up stroke play at the SEC Championship in eighth-place to make the cut for match play. Ingrid Lindblad led the Tigers in fifth-place individually. They’ll take on top seed South Carolina in the first round of match play this morning at 7 am.
🔼 Dress Rehearsal. LSU football showed what they’ve been working on in Saturday’s Spring Game at Tiger Stadium. Quarterback Garrett Nussmeier completed all seven of his passes, including two for touchdowns. The LSU offense scored four touchdowns and two field goals, while the defense scored points with seven sacks, 13 tackles for loss, and a pass breakup. Harold Perkins recorded three tackles and a sack. Running back Kaleb Jackson led his position with 59 yards on 14 carries and a touchdown.
