In front of the 15th largest crowd in program history, the No. 13 LSU women’s basketball team (14-2, 1-1) gave the No. 1 South Carolina Gamecocks (14-1, 1-1) all they could handle but couldn’t pull off the upset, falling 66-60.
The game was lost at the end of the second quarter,” Kim Mulkey said. “South Carolina didn’t do anything different. Fatigue could have set in. They’re poised. They’ve played everybody in the country that they’ve needed to play to win a national championship and they took LSU’s best shot tonight.”
The loss snaps LSU’s 13-game winning streak.
