Charlotte at LSU
BATON ROUGE, La. (Interstat) — The undefeated and high-scoring LSU women’s basketball team puts its perfect record on the line Wednesday when it hosts Charlotte at the Maravich Assembly Center.
The Tigers (3-0) have been dominant in their early-season schedule, averaging 113.7 points per game. They are coming off a 118-70 rout of Georgia Southern on Sunday, where three players scored in double figures, led by MiLaysia Fulwiley’s 19 points. Freshman ZaKiyah Johnson added 17 points and Kate Koval recorded a double-double with 12 points and 14 rebounds.
Charlotte (2-1) arrives in Baton Rouge with momentum from a narrow 66-64 road victory over UCF. Princess Anderson led the 49ers with 26 points in that contest, while Asianae Nicholson pulled down a remarkable 18 rebounds. The 49ers’ lone loss was a 71-58 decision against Auburn.
The game pits Charlotte’s rebounding prowess against an LSU offense that has overwhelmed its first three opponents. The Tigers won their two home games this season by a combined 152 points.
Following this matchup, LSU travels to face Tulane on Monday, while Charlotte continues a tough road stretch at California on Saturday.
