In The Dirt. In episode five of In The Dirt on the Hey Fightin' Podcast Network, hosts Alex Milazzo and Hayden Travinski are joined by transfers Mac Bingham and Gage Jump. Both newcomers are California natives and discuss the choices they made and the road they traveled from home to become Tigers. The newcomers draft their best ballpark food, featuring a few shocking snacks that may not be your typical ballpark meals.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Shot The Lights Out. This weekend was an exciting one for the men’s basketball team as they got a dominant 95-74 win over Arkansas. LSU shot over 50% from the field and from three-point land. Will Baker made 4-of-5 three’s and led the team with 25 points. Mike Williams III made 4-of-6 from three-point range and finished with 13 points. Jalen Cook made the most of 21 minutes, scoring 20 points for the Tigers.

🔼 Flyin’ High. Beating Arkansas seemed to be the trend in Baton Rouge this weekend! The gymnastics squad defeated the seventh-ranked Razorbacks with a new program high score. The Tigers compiled a 198.475 score, which is the highest in the country so far this season. Savannah Schoenherr took home the bars title, scoring a 9.950. Haleigh Bryant won the vault event with a 9.975 score and floor with another perfect 10. Kiya Johnson ended the night with scores of 9.900+ on every event. The Tigers secured Coach Jay Clark’s 100th career win as a head coach!

🔼  Set The Record Straight. The women’s basketball team took it to another level on Sunday, getting the 106-66 win over Florida! It was the most points ever scored against an SEC team. Six Tigers scored in double figures, led by Hailey Van Lith with a season-high 21 points and Mikaylah Williams, who matched her. Angel Reese and Aneesah Morrow struck again as the double-double duo. They combined for 32 points and 30 rebounds. Aalyah Del Rosario was just one rebound shy of joining them. The Tigers will be back in action on Thursday.
