BATON ROUGE - Mikaylah Williams set the NCAA-era LSU freshman scoring record with 42 points on Tuesday afternoon in the PMAC during the annual Field Trip Game, as the Tigers took down Kent State, 109-79.
Williams was 15-20 from the field including 5-8 from three with 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals. Totaling 42 points, she set the NCAA era LSU freshman record and became just the 11th player in program history to total over 40 points and the first since Cornelia Gayden set the LSU scoring record with 49 points (2/9/1995). Maree Jackson had games of 45 (vs. UNLV on Feb. 12, 1977) and 44 points (vs. Northwestern State in the AIAW State Tournament on Feb. 26, 1977) as a freshman in 1976-77.
“I wouldn’t say I wanted the ball every time,” Williams said. “My teammates just knew that I had the hot hand so I applaud them for getting me the ball. I was just executing on the shots.”
“She’s a special talent,” coach Kim Mulkey said of Williams. “It was one of those moments where the rim feels as big as the ocean.”
Aneesah Morrow was close to an unusual double-double. She had 17 points and 9 steals, one shy of tying the LSU record. She also had 8 rebounds to push her close to a triple-double with 2 blocks and 2 assists as well.
“I’m very active on defense, and coming here to LSU I had a goal to do better defensively. Just knowing that I’m undersized in the post and trying to play on the three. Just capitalizing and being versatile on the court.”
Hailey Van Lith, Angel Reese and Flau’Jae Johnson also scored in double figures for the Tigers.
Kent State’s Katie Shumate totaled 22 points as she went 4-6 from beyond the three-point-line. Other Golden Flashes to reach double figures were Jenna Batsch and Bridget Dunn with 16 and 11, respectively.
Coach Mulkey will return home to Tangipahoa Parish on Friday night as LSU is poised to go on the road to face Southeastern at 7 p.m. CT inside Pride Roofing University Center.
The Tigers will hit the road for the second time this season as coach Mulkey will make her return to Tangipahoa parish as LSU takes on Southeastern Louisiana on Friday night at 7:00 p.m. inside the Pride Roofing University Center in Hammond.
LSU went 42-74 for 57-percent from the field compared to Kent State’s 26-60, 43-percent. The Golden Flashes out-shot the Tigers from deep as they totaled 14 to LSU’s six. LSU scored 42 of its points off turnovers and only gave up 13 takeaways. The Tigers used its size advantage down low as LSU scored 58 of its points inside the paint.
Kent State’s Dunn kept things close early by knocking down two threes in the opening three minutes to match the Tigers total and make it 6-6. Kent State held an 11-8 lead at the first media timeout after the lead changed three times in the opening five minutes. A fast break assist from Williams gave Reese her first bucket of the game for a three-point-play that tied the game at 13. Williams went 2-2 from the foul line to bring the Tigers within one to end the opening quarter, 17-16.
Made layups from Morrow and Williams to open the second quarter gave LSU its first lead since two minus into the game. Reese added four points of her own to make it a 8-0 run as the Tigers went up 24-18. Shumate put the flashes back within one as she scored five unanswered just before the media timeout. SMith and Reese combined for all but two of LSU’s remaining points in the half. The Tigers took a 2-point lead into the break, 30-37.
The Golden Flashes lit up the three point line in the opening half as they went 7-16 for an impressive 43.8-percent. LSU was 0-6 from beyond the arc. Shumate led all scores with 17 points on 5-11, with 4 triples. Reese and Williams were the only LSU players in double figures through the first half, 11 and 10 respectively.
After Kent State regained the lead in the first minute and a half of third quarter play, Williams hit LSU’s first three of the game to take a two-point advantage. LSU built upon this lead to go on a 14-2 run and take an 11-point lead into the media timeout. Williams marked a new career high of 22 as she hit a top of the key jumper to give LSU its largest lead of the night, 15.
LSU scored seven points in the first 50 seconds of the final quarter to go up by 22 and force a Kent State timeout. Williams and Van Lith went on to combine for 28 of LSU’s 38 fourth quarter points. The Tigers cruised to a 30-point win as LSU marked its third straight game breaking the century mark. - กีฬา
So happy to see flaujae back on the court❤😊.
Im loving this lineup with Poa at PG💯 She lowkey they best defender and Aneesah Morrow is a getting in a rhythm watch out 👀🔥
This freshman class is amazing.
I'm saying!!!! The race for SEC freshman of the year is going to be tough! Once Williams gets better defensively, she will be unstoppable.
Yes they is
#12 Mikaylah Williams is on🔥
Man she balls like the men …shot is crazy….and Morrow was going crazy on that stretch she had
What a performance by Mikalayah Williams. Wow!
Mikaylah Williams #1️⃣2️⃣ is on fire 🔥💯✔️
Katie summate from Kent is a dawg!! Geaux Tigers
I must say looking at past few games this season:
Flau jae has also upped her game more since last season
Smya Smith hands down got it going on this season
Angel Reese making them free throws count more this season, you go girl!
Poa is a lil secret weapon as a pg 💯
HVL is perfect at n2 and you can tell she hasn't exploded yet! She has a lot to offer and we here for it
A. Morrow we ppbly haven't seen the best of her yet but i feel like with that body she can be the beast in defense if she could tighten that D otherwise her offensive game is game!
M.Williams girl keep that confidence and power, youre the G! You also got the body to become beast at defense, toughen the defense you good
Would love to see abit more of that Rosario she seemed to have some potential anyway
Geaux Tigers!
PS: please give us a whole docu-series/documentary of last season😊
They do have a documentary! It’s on their site, LSU tiger gold I believe!
@@ludalova77 thanks, tried to look for it on that website but couldn't find it. I wish they could upload on TH-cam for international fans to watch too.
Mikaylah Williams is a killer🔥🔥🔥
The collision with the two Freshman phenoms in Williams and the Gamecocks Fulwiley will be a highlight reel for sure!!!
LSU and their freshman are on 🔥🔥🔥❤️🔥👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾.. Well done coach Kim👌🏾
The impressive part is with a lil over 13 mins. left in the game, LSU scored 49 points… 🔥🔥🔥
Yeah against practically against a junior college team and still have damn near 80 points to them 😂😂
@@countyboy3988still gotta remember these schools are still D 1
Mulkey need to play through mikaylah. Give her the keys through the ship.
GOT DAMN WILLIAMS. I swear I was watching an All Star game.
Kent state. thats all I will say🤣🤣
Morrow back to the starting lineup ✨
Smith did a great job making her free throws this game. That’s exactly what they’re going to need in order to pull this season off. Good job by her
I swear she cut like Maya Moore!
That's exactly who she reminds me of...
Mikaylah Williams deserves as much hype as Caitlin Clark like holy shitttttt that 42 burger is insane for a freshman.
She only plays 4 games and now she’s Caitlin 😂😂😂😂 you people need help
@MetroAirA nobody said she was her. They said deserves as much hype. You people can't comprehend smh 😅
@@DPPLOWD there’s no hype about Caitlin Clark she amazing she has put out 40 point games and triple doubles now going on 4 years only 1 other player has done that in the history of womens basketball that’s like over 100 years so your saying she deserves as much coverage as Caitlin Clark who has sold out every game she’s playing this year since June take Caitlin off Iowa they maybe win 1 game all year and your telling me a freshman that plays with 4 all Americans in only her 4th game ever should get coverage as much as Caitlin 🫣😭😂 you are truly not serious
@@DPPLOWD Caitlin Clark was getting hyped when she was dropping back to back 40 point triple doubles in the NCAA tournament to make it to the Final 4 and then eliminate the undefeated SC team that was going for a repeat in the semi final game....
Tell me how it's comparable with a 40 point game against Kent State? 🤣🤣
Williams is great and she might eventually deserve the "Caitlin Clark hype" but stop acting like there is a comparison with Caitlin Clark here.
@@MetroAirA She’s not Caitlin 😂😂😂. She’s Mikayla Williams. She’s her own brand. Don’t get me wrong Caitlin Clark is the GOAT at will still be but Mikayla is coming in as one of the all time greats behind her.
These last few LSU games have been frustrating to watch not gonna lie....the first game they were moving the ball so well and coming off screens...now there's too many silly turnovers, not getting enough defensive stops, rebounds and missing free throws like crazy...got better in the 3rd and 4th....idk what's happening but Imma need them to get it together quick!
Huh??? They moved the ball well the first game? They actually loss that game to Colorado. & The last 2 they won. Last game angel hit 8 out 9 free throws & went for a double double 1 being the boards. They rebounded excellent in this game & morrow had 9 steals & you talking about wasn't enough defensive stops. The last game vs msv they held them to 47 points. Like what team you watching. Now I do admit they do need to get in a flow of moving the ball around in a more organized way. But they good though
@@kalives5774I'm not raggin on them but they really have played anyone since Colorado that's going even come close to challenging them 😂😂. So with that being said I will be very interested in the game they got coming up with Virginia Tech in a couple weeks because the Hokies defense doesn't really pressure the ball the force u to beat them with ur offensive flow and ball movement and I'm not trying to hate I'm just saying it will be a good game to gauge where the Tigers are in that department 🤷🤷
You can’t be watching the same game as us lmao
@@countyboy3988tech ain’t deep enough or physical enough , LSU may run them out the gym . I did think it was weird the way Mulkey sit Reese right when she was starting to get going and didn’t bring her back
@@bernardriggs2079 We'll see I learned last year anything can happen I'm not jumping to conclusions like oh LSU is probably gonna run them out the gym give me a break 😂😂
Mikaylah Williams is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Last-Tear Poa and Sa'myah Smith look better than last season... oh and Kent St can shoot the 3 wow.
This is my tenth time analyzing this game I must say LAST TEAR POA is a fighter a defensive 🏀er 👏👏👏👍
Yes this!
I will be back when they play a ranked team. I got Nov 30 on my calendar. SN this freshman class is NASTY all around though!
Mikaylah Williams giving me Mya Moore vibes 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I liked seeing Angel shoot that three and hit that elbow jumper. If she can consistently hit those shots LSU will be tough to beat.
This is hard to be on this team. So much fire power…I think it would be easy to get “lost in the sauce” and not even see the court. Then if you see the court, someone like Williams is doing her thing. You might not even score.
I'm new to basketball please can you explain to me as to how Angel missing shots can be great for LSU?
yeah its great watching her shoot a shot she might hit every 1 out of 100
@@sandrashange3593You can’t make a shot that you don’t attempt. One of the areas that Angel needs to improve on is her outside shooting. She said she has been working hard on that aspect of the game over the summer. So it was encouraging to see her at least attempt it in a game. If you have children, it’s like when they take baby steps…you encourage them. It doesn’t matter if they fall…does it? We expect that don’t we?? Why? Because before long they’ll be running.
@@goblack6770 ohh now I get it thank you 🙏
@@user-ob5ek6jj5zSo you actually think she isn’t trying to improve her game? At the next level “bigs” don’t shoot three’s??
They say Smith most improved? She was a beast last year.
She had a lot of foul trouble last season
LSU upper class men look gassed besides smith. We need them to get that cardio back up
living off what they did last year.
M Williams is 🔥🔥🔥
yea that freshman gonna be a problem
SOMEBODY CALL THEY PO-PO LSU PLAYERS STEALING THEIR TAILS OFF....LOL
yep another cupcake goes by the wayside.🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@user-ob5ek6jj5zDon't worry they have Virginia Tech coming up and after what happened with Colorado Im very interested in seeing what happens there 🤣🤣
Mikaylah!!!💜💛💜💛
Van lithe was the best player on Louisville. She’s not even top five on lsu lol. She’s gonna crush it
30:50 epic asf
I think what Mulkey should try doing is for at least 1 week during practices, have at least 3 of the girls each time not be in the actual court each day….they can still be in the building practicing but not physically on the court, and the rest of the girls have to practice learning how to fend for themselves, and not looking over at the ones sitting down like “what do we do now?”. That will teach all the girls to not over-rely on each other for their wins especially with the key players: Angel, Flau’jae, and Last-Tear. Now as for Angel, people are gonna try to discredit her and shade her talent simply because she’s a black girl…..every player has their moments when they just aren’t feeling the room sometimes and either do too much, or not enough which is normal and it happens. I think by Mulkey taking Angel out for a while, that teaches the girls not to rely on her so much.
What the hell has it got to do with what color she is... She's wayyyyyy overrated
Naw Angel and Flau'Jae have to let go of last year's win and let go of the hype... Coach pulled Angel because she needs to refocus... her and Flau'Jae haven't been living up to the hype thus far.
yeah because you definitely know more than Mulkey!!! I love all you people who think you know better than these great hall of fame coaches and what they should be doing. Tell ya what why dont you all get into coaching and run your own programs. Oh thats right if you were actually that smart you would be.
Man our defense is bad
How? Morrow had 9 steals
Agreed. Very good offense but defense seems very buttery, really needs to be tightened hard to get past the gamecocks for eg
@@kalives5774regardless giving up 79 points to kent state is not a good look.
@@jjaylanniyeah and y'all got Virginia Tech coming up I'm not trying to hate but if y'all's D doesn't tighten up in a couple weeks Georgia Amoore is going to eat 😂😂
Thank you for posting LSU. Can you post Texas A&M, S. Carolina & N.C. State?
damn, awesome performance against a ranked Colorado! Oh..it was Kent state lol
If Kent had a big to match up with them and one the come off the bench this would’ve been a different game! They ran out of gas on those second chance points
❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 I love you Flaiue Jae. Good score
Macayla Williams is the best player on LSU.
I was there at the game
Same
Well, if you can’t be a good team, the next step is a team with far less talent. Be like South Carolina, play real competition!!!!
Poa gotten better
🙏🏾🙏🏾
LSU keep doing it...
Ahh I was waiting and nobody sad it I guess I gotta be the one 😂😂😂 where was angel reese 😂😂😂 they coaching staff finally got fed up with her
You sure that aint Maya Moore with that number 12 LSU jersey on??😅 She is a walking bucket!!
I've been reading the comments on here and as usual HATERS gonna HATE so I'll explain 1. Angel REESE to a 3 that's NOT her shot she's an inside scorer that's why MULKEY pulled her because KIM was trying something new remember REESE was always a TARGET so now other teams have something to worry about only experience COACHES can switch it up
yeah worry about what her shooting a three. Laughable teams will pack it in and watch her miss those all day long.
How is no one talking about Samaya Smith
@Letlot
Sssshhh
Let them keep gossiping and hating, while LSU improves and hides some of the better players to the Reese Obsessed!
As I’m rewatching this game Reese and flaujae chemistry seems off I think something happened in the locker room at half time
Next week LSU will play a middle school from Alaska to see if they can score 125 points.
😂😂😂😂
That's cute, keep watch'em DogBird, you're a fan for sure🤣🤣
❤❤❤❤
Haley not a good fit for them should have went somewhere else to many wanna score
Oklahoma sooners vs ORU next please, thanks
MW keep working, you got game chic !
79-108 is crazy!!!❤❤❤❤🎉
Y'all why does Flaugae be falling so much ?😂😂😂😂😂😂
My favorite team 🐯vs my alma mater ⚡️.
They beat a weak team, NCAA just getting started
van lith will be lsu downfall for a title this season
Yeah MK🎉 12 island
Wow
Please play real rank teams as the teams they’re playing is weak! I will be impressed when they play teams that really know how to ball but as of now this is some weak ass matchups 😂😂😂
Ok, if you turn the BS Cheerleaders off and just watch the game, at this point in the season, getting into the forecourt, two people touch the ball before a shot is taken regardless of the defense being played on the shooter. (Get the ball, dribble into a crowd, take a shot) Only one time did the highlights show four passes before a score. Yeah, yeah, why does it matter if they win. Well, let me remind you of the name of the State of Colorado. It's not like there isn't a great deal of talent on the floor but the seeming lack of team play just seems like a problem. Well, that's the coach's problem but it makes watching them let Kent State be competitive for 3/4 of the game doesn't seem right. Finally when LSU decided to play defense, they broke it open. If the goal is winning another National Championship, playing this way is a My Left Foot way of doing it. Congrats to Williams for giving us a reason to cheer. Geaux Tigers.
what did cheerleaders do to you lol
Cheerleaders themselves have nothing to do with me. Announcers/color commentators going "Rah Rah for the Home Team" is just "BS" during their broadcast imo. Even if it's my team, I don't like it and I turn them off rather than listen.
As far as cheerleaders go, I've been watching Weber State's Caylee Odle get tossed around for the past two years. th-cam.com/users/shorts94hrrTcuxl4?si=aTc-CCxpHoGC51Rd
Reese isn't even the best player on her team.
Nope. Not at this point.
I don’t remember anyone saying she was but go off 🤦🏾♂️.
She got benched 😂😂😂 she’s going out sad you see this what happens when she took all the credit for everyone else’s hard work you get exposed when your on the scouting report 😂
@@MetroAirA you must be a c.c fan?
Nobody said she was goofy
HVL don't belong on this team. She doesn’t fit. Can't defend, can't run the offense, and she has no vision.
Why did Kim put her in for 34 minutes then?
@@joshg7136 she's trying to make fetch happen
Cant bench the white girl. Lol.
@@nextdayheir3329 And now her program is in dissaray. But I don't think it's because she's white. I think it's because she truly wants to make her into a PG.
I give her an E for effort but there is a reason Jeff Walz wouldn't let her be PG, and now Kim is finding out the hard way.
Oh this team is still JELLING their NOT complete yet when they are?Mikaylah with 42 is NOT the only one they'll have to worry about MK ULTIMATE 12 CONGRATULATIONS 🏀🔥👏👏👏 LSU LADIES are BALLERS with their own skills blessed are every last one of them thank you bye
yeah they play real well against teams not ranked in the top 150.🤣🤣🤣
i think am starting to hate this smith
Great to see number 4 get humbled
LSU will destroy Iowa again
Williams set fire to their ass. OMG!
LSU haters why are you watching the LSU is champs your not that why fools
Hey Dale my second grader ask me why they let a kindergarten kid type on you tube. Why would we watch a championship caliber team play such a week ass schedule.
Go tigers
Last-Tear Poa and Sa'myah Smith look better than last season... oh and Kent St can shoot the 3 wow.
