LSU breaks Division I record with 131-22 win over Texas Southern
The 109-point victory became the largest margin for a D1 matchup in NCAA history.
In a stunning Division I record-setting performance, LSU's women's basketball team trounced Texas Southern with a staggering 131-22 scoreline on Thursday. Head coach Kim Mulkey, who previously coached Baylor to a 108-point win against Winthrop in 2016, showcased her team's prowess with seven players logging 20 minutes or more on the court. Ten players contributed to the victory, with seven players scoring in double digits.
The game was marked by LSU's dominant second quarter, where they scored an astonishing 40 points while holding Texas Southern to zero points. Freshman Anna Minaeva led the charge for both teams with 21 points and seven rebounds off the bench, while senior guard Mikaylah Williams added 20 points.
This impressive win comes after LSU's early-season schedule has been manageable, with upcoming opponents including McNeese, Denver, NC State, North Carolina, and eventual No. 2 UConn on December 20, providing an opportunity for the team to prepare for higher-stakes SEC play.
