BATON ROUGE, LA – The LSU Tigers proved their grit and resilience once again, securing a hard-fought victory over the Georgia Bulldogs despite a major setback-Aneesah Morrow’s injury. The spotlight was on Flau’Jae Johnson, who delivered a sensational performance, stepping up in Morrow’s absence and leading LSU to a crucial win that sent fans into a frenzy.

Following the loss to the Texas Longhorns, the LSU Lady Tigers returned to action needing to get the team headed back in the right direction. Before the game even started, LSU faced issues as Aneesah Morrow was ruled out for the game with an injury meaning LSU needed to lean on some of their other pieces.

“I knew I had to step up for my team,” Johnson said post-game. “Aneesah is a huge part of our squad, but we had to lock in and get this win for her.”
