BATON ROUGE - Sa’Myah Smith scored 21-points for the second straight game to tie a career-high and recorded her second career double-double with 11 boards to power LSU past MVSU, 109-47, Sunday in the PMAC.
“I worked on improving my jumping ability,” said Smith, who stayed in Baton Rouge over the summer to work on her game. “The consistent work I put in over the summer definitely helped, knowing what I can do and being confident in myself gives me all the motivation I need to produce results. I also worked on improving my jump shot. My main focus was finding a way to stay consistent.”
Angel Reese recorded the 37th double-double in 39 total games at LSU as she passed Ayana Mitchell for the second most double-doubles in program history. She had 14 points and 10 rebounds to record her 10th straight double-double and while adding 4 assists.
Other Tigers to reach double digits include Mikaylah Williams, Annesah Morrow, and Hailey Van Lith. Williams scored 20 points for the first time in her collegiate career as she lit up the three point line on 5-6 from deep. Morrow added 14 with 5 rebounds and 3 blocks. Van Lith totaled 11 points and had a game-high 6 assists with just one turnover. Ten of LSU’s 12 players who saw the court scored in the game.
Flau’Jae Johnson was out Sunday with an illness so LSU introduced its third unique starting lineup in as many games this season with Van Lith, Williams, Poa, Smith and Reese.
At halftime of the game, Mulkey gifted seven of her former coaches national championship rings. The coaches ranged from junior-high to AAU to high school to college and she played for all of them inside the state of Louisiana. A full list of who she gifted rings to can be found at the bottom of this release with a bio of each of them.
“On a personal level, having those coaches on the floor shows what they mean to me,” Mulkey said. “I think that particular group on the floor meant a lot to the state of Louisiana. That was women’s basketball royalty, and a lot of them didn’t get the recognition that women’s basketball gets now. There were a lot of wins on that floor.”
Sh’Diamond McKnight led MVSU with 21 points on 8-22 from the field and 2 three-pointers. No other Devilette had more than 5 points. Four Devilettes fouled out Sunday afternoon.
The Tigers went 55-percent (36-66) from the field compared to MVSU’s 24-percent (17-70). LSU scored its most threes of the season with six, five from Williams and one from Morrow. The Tigers won the battle on the boards as it out-rebounded MVSU 59-33. Sunday’s victory scoring 109 points marked LSU’s second game in a row eclipsing the century mark.
LSU’s physicality on the court overpowered MVSU. The Tigers went to the line for 50 free-throws, tied for the second most in program history although they only made 62-percent of their shots from the charity stripe.
LSU will be back in action on Tuesday at 11 a.m. CT for its annual field trip game as the Tigers take on Kent State.
After going down by four to start the game, the Tigers pieced together an 11-0 run to take a seven point lead into the media timeout. Reese accounted for eight of the points in the run while Williams added a three. LSU forced a MVSU timeout with just under two minutes in the first after a 10-0 run where the Tigers went 5-5 from the field. After the opening ten minutes of action the Tigers took a 29-9 lead into the second quarter.
Williams hit her fourth three-pointer of the game to extend the LSU lead and give her 14 points with five minutes to play in the half. After Turner three put the Devilettes past the 20-point mark Morrow scored four straight that was capped off a strong fast break finish. The Tigers outscored MVSU 21-14 in the second quarter to take a 50-23 lead into the half.
Three Tigers finished the first half with double figures to total for 35 of LSU’s 50 points in the first half. Williams had 14 points on 4-5 from deep, Reese had 11 with six rebounds, and Smith scored 10 with five boards. LSU was 48-percent from the field compared to the Devilettes’ 27-percent.
The third quarter opened with a team effort as the Tigers extended its lead to 38 in the first five minutes of the half. LSU held the Delta Devils scoreless for over three minutes in the third quarter. Williams hit her fifth triple of the night to bring her total to 20 and set a new career high. Smith earned her third block of the night and then found Van Lith in transition who finished down low to give the Tigers a 50-point lead. The 34 points scored in the third was the most totaled in any quarter this season.

Respect for Sa'myah 🔥💯
she is special...she's a workhorse in the midrange... has ability to go Iso... she has a 20 per night type of talent
She needs to start permanently
@@BottomLifePooh I don't disagree. Kim been throwing everyone together, so far. She definitely has first team potential anywhere. But the way she's playing, she's getting points regardless. I wouldn't start her since she is a taller 3/4 guard. She needs her own space in the game to shine, offensively. She's 6th man though for sure , starter for size on defense though
Van Lit has some good passes …. She can really see that floor
Yep she's so great against a team that's only won 2 Gamez last yr😂😂😂
@@EdwardCurl you do realize she won a gold for USA 3v3
@@EdwardCurlI don’t see anyone saying anything about Iowa beating teams that aren’t ranked, not every college school is ranked does that mean they’re not good? It’s the beginning of the season those rankings came from last year. Every team has new players, transfers, etc.
@@allebesu7049bro that team is not gonna be ranked they are like division 3 tf u smoking and in my eyes idk know what LSU is because so far they are beating up on teams they should now they have #9 Virginia Tech coming up in a couple weeks and if they win that i will acknowledge them because the last ranked they played spanked them 😂😂
the line up i've been asking for
Keep on Scoring! Win Lady Tigers!
Great Game 😊 Great Team Support 😊 You Guys Won All The Way Home Auntie Love You Guys Again Great Great Game Much Love
Van Lith gonna be a key player later on in the season! Slowly but surely adapting to LSU style of play
Smith looks good
Missed #4. Get Better Soon. We were in attendance.💜💛💜💛
I was checking for her too... Back in spring '22 I watched High School players do one on ones and 3 on 3s on YT... Think it was called 'queen of the court'... This is how I first saw Flau' Jae... It's crazy that since then, she joined LSU, won a Natty....and two other players that were competing there are now LSU Tigers :Mikaylah Williams and Angelica Velez (all of them are extremely talented and fun to watch). I'm a fan again for the first time since Sylvia Fowles, and Seimone Augustus used to play
Good game LSU ladies 🏀👏👏👏 hope BIG 4 feels better 🙏
She will once she's a starter again😅😅😅
Against a 2 win team last yr😂😂😂
@@nextdayheir3329 did your team reach the finals last season if NOT then wouldn't the be on you 🤡😂🤣
@@EdwardCurl gee 🤔 i wonder how many games did your team win last season 🤨oh never mind 🤡
I noticed that Hailey during this game, seemed to do much better on the right side than the left side…..I guess for some players they play better on certain sides and areas of the courts and under the right circumstances….they perform better
score ratio is crazyyy
Excelente
Van lith gotta embrace her environment, yes your with a lot of great players but don’t forget who you are! Stop passing up that shot girl shooters gone shoot!
She has to CP3 the team... There's no escaping it. Though she's not a true 1 guard, she is the most capable. But even CP3 gotta pull up every once in a while . If I were coach, I would have her facilitate was much as possible in the beginning, make sure everyone getting their shots... Then I'm running her wing to wing after entry pass into the high post... And get the kick back to score. Everyone else is a rebounder
Angel Needa play her role she’ll be good
Great game...
🐯 tigers 💪🏾💯
Janae Kent had a good game.
LSU need to get number 11 more involved.
Hailey is most likely still getting used to how LSU trains and practices. Every team is different when it comes to how they practice….so it’s gonna take her some time before she’s 100% completely comfortable and just dominates the court. However, for every single game she has been out there whether she made a bucket or not.
@@tiamarrow6366 that’s nice what you said but one of my family members play for LSU. I Can tell you they need to get her more involved.
She's having trouble getting into their offense. She's definitely involved. It's a matter of getting used to their offense. She's playing both point and shooting guard for them.
@ctbt1832 really? Is Flauejae really sick? Or mad about not starting? Or had to go shoot a commercial? Lol.
MIss Valley need a lot of work, THAT #11 THO!!!!!!!! NEW PG!!!!!!!!1
2:15 The annoucer actually said that Reese threw that pass away.
WTF dude
They beat Mississippi Valley State by 62 points?? LSU's next opponent is Rock Dell Middle school.
Quick as a lizard lick😂😂😂😂
Ahh yes, the American Icon that is Lyn Rollins!
His 50th year broadcasting in Louisiana & beyond 🎤
Only scoring 47 points is crazy. That's like 12 points a qtr or 23 points a half
That's because lsu talent has better talent.
check out the game against south carolina
The cameraman need to get closer I’m getting confused between 24 and 10 from LSU lol
South Carolina will smoke them once again lol
Doesn’t Ja morant’s sister go here?
yea
she is still in high school, but she committed to lsu though.
@@Z-TecClips no she was class of 2023 and committed to MVSU
@@Z-TecClips she’s on mvsu she just didn’t play.
They kinda play well and like more calm/collected when Angel isn’t in. HVL Aneesah and Poa starts to look more comfortable later in this game. When Angel is in it’s just like “ball ball ball ball I need my double double”.
Angel hater spotted 😂😂
I mean they need more ranked teams to play im not impressed these r teams they are supposed to win
Poole or Poa needs to start over Flaujae
Not Poole she brings very little to the team
poa def needs to start but if she’s starting over anybody its HAILEY, not flaujae
@@aall3xxx nooo, we need Hailey
Sa’myah is shooting to much in my opinion. Everything she touches she puts it up in the air. No need for that.
How lsu number 1 ion understand 🥸
Cos they won the championship last year
They aren't anymore South Carolina is they dropped to #7 after the loss to Colorado and the only other ranked team they play before conference play starts is Virginia Tech 😂😂
why does their coach schedule these weak ooc games💀
@Superaliciafan
Some coaches like to work on certain concepts, and/or players, or have the team gel before they play tougher competition if they're in a tough conference such as the SEC. They did play a ranked team for their first game (Colorado), and they lost/got exposed. So, that may be a good thing for them, as their coach has been saying that from before the season started, by saying 'they're not there yet, but will be sometime this season'!
@@msl5253well they better hope they get there soon because they got #9 Virginia Tech coming up in a couple weeks 😂😂
@@countyboy3988
Yeah. We'll see! They actually have too many good players (if there is such a thing)!! 🤕🤔😆
It is when you got Van Lith trying to run the point im sorry but that just doesn't work for me lol
Look they can't even get people to come watch them at home.... Iowa sells out away games!! Just sayin''
You Lsu fans realize that msms only won 2 games all of last yr right..of course Lsu is gonna smoke this team..yall acting like Lsu beat top 5 team...😂😂😂
@Edward
Don't think anyone made a big deal about the result, except you my friend!
Angel reese doing the too little gesture to a 5'9 chick is crazy. You weren't doing that against Colorado tho huh 😂
Shaq daughter didn't go there because her father is too cool with Angel Reese. Guarantee you!
Why must everything be about Angel? She's minding her business. Mearah wants to start her own legacy without the pressure.
You do know that Shaq's daughter is a senior in high school. She did say she's going to Florida University a few days ago.
Horrible sports all girl ball should be banned
