Bayou Brew 5/14: Party In The Park

Today, softball hosts NCAA Regional, men's basketball conference opponent reveal, and more!

Good morning! Another LSU gymnast has decided to return to the PMAC for one final year! Sierra Ballard announced that she will spend her final year of eligibility in Baton Rouge.

There’s just something different about LSU. You can’t put it into words until you come here. If I have an opportunity to continue making history with my best friends, in the best place in this world, then I’m going to do that.

🔼  A Pro’s Pro. Former Tiger women’s golfer Madelene Sagstrom has officially surpassed the $4 million mark in career earnings. She finished second-place at the Cognizant Founders Cup on the LPGA Tour over the weekend. She is now 109th on the LPGA’s all-time money list. The former Tiger is No. 11 in the Race to the SME Globe Standings and has 20 career top 10s, three of them coming from this year.

🔼 The Gauntlet. The men’s golf team finished round one of the NCAA Baton Rouge Regional tied for ninth-place. Connor Gaunt led the team and is tied for second-place individually after shooting 4-under 68. The Tigers will look to improve to secure a top five spot in the regional.

🔼  Meet The Opponents. The SEC announced each school’s conference opponents for the upcoming men’s basketball season. Conference play will begin on January 4 and runs through March 8. LSU’s permanent opponents are Arkansas and Texas A&M, so they will play each other at home and on the road. They’ll also play Ole Miss home and away this season.
