LSU' offense eruptes in the second half

A 38-22 deficit at halftime was overcome by a 23-6 third-quarter surge for the Tigers.   In the fourth quarter, there were four lead changes before Williams hit a wide open 3-pointer with 50 seconds left to put the game away.  Mikaylah Williams scored 15 of her 24 points in the second half as No. 7 LSU rallied from 16 points down to beat No. 14 Kentucky 65-58 on Sunday. LSU leading scorer Flau’Jae Johnson was held to 13 points and 13 rebounds.

While Georgia Amoore led Kentucky with 16 points, she shot just 6 of 22 from the field, including 3 of 15 from beyond the arc.

As a result of the win, LSU coach Kim Mulkey had his 750th career victory, and the team received a top four seed in the Southeastern Conference Tournament as a result.
