LSU hoops wins its third in a row



For the first time this season, the Tigers won on the road in conference play as they defeated South Carolina 68-58

LSU had balance scoring for its third in a row as six different players, scored eight points or more. Seven-foot-center Justin Hamilton (above) led the way with 18 points. Storm Warren had a solid game, as he had 13 points and eight rebounds as the Tigers had a lot of success down low.  

Anthony Hickey filled up the stat sheet as he scored 10 points, seven assists and six rebounds.

The Tigers led for nearly the entire game as they shot 49% from the field and drilled 5 three-pointers. Ralston Turner hit three from beyond the stripe and finished with nine points.

LSU is 16-and-10 overall, six-and-six in the SEC and will go for its fourth straight win on Wednesday night at home against Georgia, who is just 3-and-8 in the league going into Sunday's game against Vanderbilt.
