“Obviously, as a basketball player, and just like a little girl growing up watching basketball, it’s everybody’s dream to have their names in the history books,” junior guard Mikaylah Williams said after the school accomplished the feats. “So, it’s truly a good feeling and a blessing to even be able to do this.”
According to the school, it will be the team’s fourth straight season in the Sweet Sixteen. Their next game takes place on Sunday, March 29, when they face the No. 3 seed Duke Raiders at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center. LSU is now 29-5 on the season.
LSU head coach Kim Mulkey, acknowledging the record, made it clear they have a goal in mind.
“I don’t think one thing about it,” Mulkey said. “That is not something that, when I’m in my rocking chair, I’m gonna tell the grandkids, ‘You know what we did one year?’ I’ll forget it, but I won’t forget those national championships, those conference championships.”
