LSU women slip one spot to 12th in AP poll
BATON ROUGE – The LSU Women’s Basketball team (17-3, 5-2 SEC) fell one spot to No. 12 in Monday’s AP Poll after dropping its only game of the week on Sunday by one point to Florida.
The Tigers are inside the AP Poll for the eighth consecutive week.
Khayla Pointer’s career-high 35 points was not enough to lift the Tigers over the Gators on Sunday, but LSU will have to opportunities to rebound this week with a Thursday matchup at Arkansas and a Sunday home game against Kentucky, who also lost to Florida last week. Both of LSU’s games this week will be televised on the SEC Network.
