No. 5 LSU nearly tripled the offensive output of its opponent Tuesday in a 91-33 rout of visiting Morgan State in front of a spirited crowd including thousands of schoolchildren from the Baton Rouge area.
With 10 points and seven boards, Grace Knox was one of five LSU players who scored in double figures on Field Trip Day as the Tigers (12-0) overwhelmed Morgan State, which converted just 25% of its shots (11 of 44) and scored on consecutive possessions just once in the second half.
Mikaylah Williams and Flau’jae Johnson led the Tigers with 14 points apiece, with Johnson adding four rebounds and two steals. MiLaysia Fulwiley notched 11 points, five rebounds, four assists and two steals, and Jada Richard added 10 points.
Tigers head coach Kim Mulkey switched up her starting lineup again, putting freshman ZaKiyah Johnson and senior East Carolina transfer Amiya Joyner in the two starting frontcourt spots. They responded by combining for 14 points and 13 rebounds.
Ja’la Bannerman and Michaela Bogans led the Lady Bears with eight points apiece.
