BATON ROUGE — No. 7
BATON ROUGE — No. 7 LSU held McNeese scoreless and went on a 47-0 run to allow the Tigers to set program records for points scored and margin of victory, defeating McNeese, 133-44.
“I told them at the half that we held them scoreless in the second quarter,” Coach Kim Mulkey said. “I told them then I’m not really sure I’ve ever been a part of that. And then I found out about that run and you don’t think about it at the moment. I don’t know that I have been a part of that. It doesn’t matter who you’re playing – that is kind of crazy.”
LSU had six players score in double-figures with three earning double-doubles, and two freshman recorded career highs. It marked the first time this year six players reached double digits.
Aalyah Del Rosario earned her first career double-double as she led all scorers with 27-points and had 10 boards, both of which are career-highs for the freshman.
“For me it’s just about progress,” Del Rosario said. “Compared to the beginning of the season when I came here, I was not in the best shape. Now I’m in the best shape I’ve ever been in. The support from my teammates and my coaching staff has been amazing.”
“You saw a couple things tonight that Aalyah couldn’t do earlier in the year,” Coach Mulkey said. “She’s very proud of herself. And when you do things like that and you see results, the first thing that happens is you them become really, really confident.”
Mikaylah Williams was right behind her with 26 points. Angelica Velez had a career-highs with 10 points and 5 assists with no turnovers while Janae Kent scored 6 as LSU’s four freshmen scored 69 points.
Angel Reese and Aneesah Morrow earned double-doubles as the duo continued its dominance down low. Reese had 21 points and 11 rebounds while Morrow scored 18 and hauled in 10 rebounds.
Alva Mofalk and Emilia Tenbrock each scored 12 to lead the Cowgirls as the only two players to reach double figures. No Cowgirl had more than five rebounds and two fouled out in the fourth quarter.
LSU will be back in action on Sunday afternoon as it hosts Northwestern State at 2:00 p.m. inside the PMAC before hitting the road next Wednesday to take on Coppin State in Baltimore, Maryland, a trip home for Reese.
