The defending national champion LSU Lady Tigers have a thrilling schedule for the upcoming 2023?2024 season. The Tigers are prepared to defend their championship and leave their imprint once more under the leadership of star athlete Angel Reese. LSU’s season officially begins when the Hall of Fame Series begins on November 6 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Colorado will be their opponent, and this will be the first time these teams have met since 2004.
Due to the retention of the majority of their skilled squad, Colorado, a powerful team that advanced to the Sweet 16 last year, will present a significant challenge for the Tigers. However, as for now, the LSU icon Reese is away from her team for national duty. Even so, she didn’t forget to pen down an emotional note to her “twin”.
