LSU Women's Basketball kicks off its season on Monday night at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center (PMAC) as they take on Eastern Kentucky.
Ranked No. 7 nationally in both major polls, LSU heads into the 2024-25 campaign after an impressive 31-6 season that culminated in an NCAA Elite Eight run.

Over the last two seasons, LSU has dominated at the PMAC, boasting a 35-1 home record and a strong 28-4 record within the Southeastern Conference (SEC).
On the other side, Eastern Kentucky is building off a memorable 2023-24 season, marking their first 20-win campaign since 2005 and their first Women’s National Invitational Tournament (WNIT) appearance since 2002. With Greg Todd entering his fourth season as head coach, the Colonels are poised to continue their upward momentum as they clash with LSU on Monday night.
