MiLaysia Fulwiley Leads LSU Women's Basketball Past Denver
MiLaysia Fulwiley scored a season-high 23 points as the nation’s top-scoring team reached 100 for the fourth straight game.
On Friday, LSU women's basketball defeated Denver 101-37 at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center, marking the Tigers' fourth consecutive game scoring at least 100 points behind senior guard MiLaysia Fulwiley's season-high 23 points.
Despite missing 10 of its first 13 free throws, LSU quickly regained momentum with a 26-0 scoring run that bridged the first and second quarters, putting the game away against the Pioneers.
Mikaylah Williams contributed 20 points for the Tigers, while ZaKiyah Johnson added 13 points with six rebounds, and freshman center Anna Minaeva recorded a team-high 10 rebounds.
Denver sophomore guard Tori Baker scored 16 points in the loss as the Lady Tigers' defense forced 11 turnovers, leaving the Pioneers preparing to host Regis on Monday.
Reaching the 100-point mark for the fourth straight game demonstrates the offensive efficiency developed under head coach Kim Mulkey, positioning the undefeated Tigers as the nation's leading scoring team.
