🔼 Set The Record Straight. LSU track & field set records over the weekend at the SEC Outdoor Championship. Alia Armstrong ran the fastest all-conditions 100m hurdle time in collegiate history clocking in at 12.31 (+2.2m/s)! She then ran a 12.40 time in the finals to give her the LSU record and the SEC meet record. Michaela Rose won the 800m title and broke the oldest SEC-running record. The 4×100m relay squad of Brandon Hicklin, Dorian Camel, Da’Marcus Fleming, and Godson Oghenebrume set a new NCAA record with their 37.90 time. The men’s team took second-place with 89 total points.

🔼 Regional Ready. The men’s golf team is kicking off the Norman Regional this morning in Oklahoma. The regional lasts three days with one round per day. The Tigers are looking to secure a top 5 spot to advance to the NCAA Championship in Scottsdale, Arizona. Drew Doyle and Garrett Barber have led the way for the Tigers all year, Drew has had five Top 10 finishes this season.

🔼 Lucky Number Seven. LSU dominated the All-SEC softball honors when seven Tigers were selected. Ali Kilponen and Ali Newland were named All-SEC First Team. Ciara Briggs, Taylor Pleasants, McKenzie Redoutey, and Sydney Berzon made All-SEC Second Team. Raeleen Gutierrez joined Ciara, Taylor, and McKenzie on the All-Defensive Team. The Tigers seven selections are the most in the conference.

🔼 Team USA. USA basketball selected Hailey Van Lith as one of 18 players to participate in the 2023 USA 3×3 Women’s National Team trials. USA basketball is not stranger to Hailey as she has multiple years of experience in the FIBA 3×3 World Cups. In 2019, she earned the FIBA 3×3 U18 World Cup MVP honors.
