The LSU Tigers’ women’s basketball team got off to a hot start to their 2026-27 season with a 129-35 beatdown against the Southeastern Louisiana Lions, with sophomore guard ZaKiyah Johnson putting up a game-high 33 points and 13 rebounds. The Tigers will play their first SEC opponent on New Year’s Eve as they travel to Neville Arena in Alabama.
The LSU Tigers women's basketball team began their 2026-27 season with a dominant 129-35 victory over Southeastern Louisiana, led by sophomore guard ZaKiyah Johnson's performance, which included 33 points and 13 rebounds. However, fans have expressed dissatisfaction with the team's non-conference schedule, particularly after facing a significantly less talented opponent.
One fan expressed their frustration, stating, "I hate how Kim Mulkey schedules these games." Coach Kim Mulkey addressed the criticism during a postgame press conference, noting that Spanish forward Noa Morro was not playing as much as she would like due to her recent surgery. Mulkey clarified the timeline for Morro's return, stating that she might be ready for a game in about a week, as her surgery took place on September 2nd. The Tigers will next face Texas Southern on November 5th.
