   BATON ROUGE – The LSU Soccer team (4-2-0) took down UC Davis (1-2-2) by a final score of 3-2 on Sunday night to protect their home pitch and remain undefeated in Baton Rouge in 2025.
   
​   Senior Ida Hermannsdottir scored two goals to lead the way for the Tigers on the night, earning the third brace of her career and helping the Tigers to a comeback victory over the Aggies. Graduate transfer Morgan Witz also tallied a goal on the night to help secure the win. 


   “The two goals we conceded tonight were two that we never should have. They were basic errors on our end, but all credit to UC Davis for capitalizing,” said head coach Sian Hudson. “I thought we were the dominant team for the majority of the game. We created so many opportunities and I’m just proud of our players for continuing to push and fight through adversity the whole match. It wasn’t our cleanest or best performance, but sometimes I think soccer at this level is just about finding a way to win, and we did that tonight.”

   UC Davis struck first in the sixth minute when Tiger goalkeeper Sophine Kevorkian attempted to clear the ball out of the box, which deflected off UC Davis midfielder Genavieve Fontes and left an open net for Fontes to knock it in and take an early 1-0 lead.

   The Tigers were able to equalize in the 21st minute when defender Kelsey Major crossed the ball into the box toward forward Ava Galligan, who was tripped by an Aggie defender and earned a penalty kick for LSU. Hermansdottir stepped up to the penalty spot and confidently struck the ball to the bottom left corner, sliding past the Aggie keeper and evening the match 1-1. 

   Hermannsdottir’s penalty kick was her second goal of the year and 21st of her career. She is also now five out of six on PK’s in her career. 

   The Aggies struck again in the 35th minute when a Tiger defender dispossessed the ball just outside the box leaving UC Davis’ Lisette Gregoris with a great look at the goal. The Aggie forward promptly lofted it over the head of Kevorkian, taking the 2-1 lead into the second half.

   Despite being down a goal at the end of the first 45 minutes, the Tigers controlled possession for the majority of the first half and tallied ten shots.

   LSU came out aggressive in the second half, attempting four shots in the first ten minutes, but the Tigers were still looking to find an equalizer.

   In the 67th minute, forward Sariyah Bailey blew past the Aggie backline and crossed the ball inside the box, where it deflected off Hermanndottir and found Witz, who wasted no time and touched the ball into the back of the net to tie the game 2-2. It was Witz’s second goal of the season and at LSU.

   The Tigers found the back of the net again just 90 seconds later. LSU midfielder Gabbi Ceballos found the feet of Bailey, who once again found herself in a position to cross the ball to an incoming Hermansdottir, who headed it into the goal. Her goal gave LSU the 3-2 lead on the night.

   LSU managed to fight off UC Davis the remainder of the match to secure their third victory inside the LSU Soccer Stadium this year and Head Coach Sian Hudson’s 50th career win as the leader of the Tigers. 

   The home team finished with 27 shot attempts compared to the Aggies five. Nine of those shots were on target, forcing the UC Davis keeper to record six saves.

   BATON ROUGE, La. – LSU volleyball secured its first victory of the season in commanding fashion, sweeping South Alabama 3-0 (25-21, 25-21, 25-15) on Saturday afternoon at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center. With the win, the Tigers move to 1-1 on the year, while the Jaguars fall to 0-2.

   Outside hitter Nia Washington spearheaded the attack, leading all players with 16 kills on a .414 hitting percentage. The senior consistently found seams in the Jaguar defense and paced LSU in key moments. Outside hitter Jurnee Robinson followed with a strong all-around performance, tallying 15 kills on a .300 clip to go along with 12 digs, three blocks, and two aces. Robinson has two double-doubles in as many matches.

Brooker also made her mark at the net, adding four kills on five error-free swings and two blocks. Freshman setter Takyla Brown contributed 12 assists and one ace in her second collegiate appearance, helping maintain LSU’s offensive rhythm.

The Tigers returned to the floor on a mission and eventually led 17-13, highlighted by a 9-0 run. The Jaguars pulled within one point at 19-18, but the Bayou Bengals closed, scoring six of the final nine points to win the opening set, 25-21. Washington led LSU with seven kills, and Robinson followed with six kills and three blocks. Jones also had three blocks in the set.

Set 2

   LSU took an 11-6 lead on a 6-1 run to pressure South Alabama into an early timeout. South Alabama grabbed a 16-15 lead that included four unanswered points, to encourage the Tigers to take their first timeout of the set. After the break, Washington’s kill and ace put LSU back on top, 17-16. Although the Jags tied the set one more time at 20, the Tigers took a commanding 2-0 match lead after finishing the set on a 5-1 run for the 25-21 victory. Robinson landed seven kills on a .500 hitting percentage and had two aces in the frame.   

Set 3

   LSU built a 9-4 lead, highlighted by a 5-0 run early in the set, and South Alabama exhausted both of its timeouts, trailing 15-7. The Tigers led by as many as 11 points in the set and cruised to a 25-15 victory to secure the club’s first sweep of the season. Washington dominated the set with six kills on seven errorless swings (.857).

   ​BATON ROUGE – The LSU Soccer team (3-2-0) took down No. 21 Wisconsin (4-1-0) by a final score of 1-0 on Thursday night at the LSU Soccer Stadium to claim the program’s first victory over a top-25 team at home since 2021 and end the Badgers undefeated streak in 2025.

   Junior forward Ava Galligan secured the game winner after knocking a header to the back of the net from a cross by freshman forward Sariyah Bailey in the 90th minute. Makenna Dominguez earned the first assist on the goal after she sent the through ball to Bailey, who sent in the cross and tallied an assist herself.

   The last time LSU defeated a ranked opponent at home was October 28, 2021 against No. 4 Arkansas.

   “We’re just thrilled to see the team respond like that after losing the game in the last minute last week. They grew from that moment and made it count until the final whistle tonight,” said head coach Sian Hudson. “Overall, we’re just really pleased with the whole team's performance. I think Wisconsin is a fantastic team and difficult to beat, so that was a massive win for us tonight. We'll use this momentum to springboard forward now onto the next.”

   In the first 45 minutes of action, neither team was able to find the back of the net. The Tiger defense held Wisconsin to just two shots, and senior goalkeeper Sophine Kevorkian recorded one save. The first half ended scoreless.

   LSU picked up the tempo early on in the second half, recording two shots on goal in the first five minutes of action, but were still looking for the right moment to capitalize.

   The Badgers threatened in the 75th minute when a corner kick was sent into the box and knocked from the head of Wisconsin’s Erin Connolly off the crossbar before ultimately being deflected out of bounds.

   With less than a minute on the clock to play, Dominguez dribbled into Badger territory before finding Bailey who sent the ball into the box. Galligan slipped past the Wisconsin back line and headed the ball over the outstretched hands of the Badger goalkeeper. The goal was Galligan’s fourth of the season and 13th of her career.

   “What an unbelievable header,” added Hudson. “Just her strength, resilience and character to pull through when it mattered most and put that one away was amazing.”

   The Tigers finished the game with seven shots, three of which were on target. The defense held off constant Wisconsin attacks limiting the Badgers to just two shots on goal.

   Kevorkian made two saves in the game and recorded her second clean sheet of the year and fourth as a Tiger.

    LSU returns home this Sunday, August 31 as they take on UC Davis at 7 p.m. CT on SECN+.

Soccer Wins 2025 Season Opener Over South Alabama, 2-0

   ​BATON ROUGE – The LSU Soccer team (1-0-0) kicked off the 2025 season with a win over South Alabama (0-1-0) on Thursday night at the LSU Soccer Stadium by a final score of 2-0.

   Junior forward Ava Galligan and senior midfielder Ida Hermannsdottir found the back of the net for the Tigers, tallying the first goals of the season and securing a victory in the season opener.

   LSU has won four of five of their season opening matches since 2021 under Head Coach Sian Hudson's tenure.

   “I think you've always got to be excited just to get the first win of the season under your belt. We knew South Alabama was going to be incredibly organized and difficult to break down, but we were really patient in possession and just kept grinding away,” said Hudson.

   “We’re really satisfied with the win, but most importantly, keeping a clean sheet. We've been preaching all preseason about defensive solidarity, grit and determination, and we did that to protect our home. Now, we’re looking forward to playing against the national finalist in Wake Forest on the weekend!”

   In the 2025 season opener between the Tigers and the Jags, neither side was able to produce a chance on goal in the first half. LSU attempted six shots with one on target from sophomore Amy Smith, but that was all. The Tiger defense kept the ball away from their side of the field, holding the Jaguars to just two shots.

   It was scoreless at the halfway point in Baton Rouge as LSU needed to find a spark in the final 45 minutes. 

   The Tigers found a breakthrough in the 74th minute thanks to Galligan. The junior got around a South Alabama defender just at the edge of the box and took a shot from ten yards out to put LSU on the board. The goal was the first of the season and tenth in Galligan’s career, who also scored against the Jags in last year’s season opener.

   “Ava had missed a chance, you know, a few minutes earlier, but she had the bit between her teeth and just the determination to win it and then go ahead and find a really clutch goal for us in a really big moment,” added Hudson. “Huge credit to her.”

   Hermannsdottir extended the LSU lead in the 87th minute to 2-0. The Tigers found their way into the box when forward Smith was fouled, awarding the home team a penalty kick. Hermannsdottir’s PK was initially blocked by South Alabama goalkeeper Jaidin Kinch, but the senior continued to follow through, making two more attempts at finding the back of the net before whipping out a bicycle kick on the third attempt that couldn’t be saved. 
On Ida’s goal, Hudson said “obviously she had the penalty and took three bites at the cherry, but she had unbelievable improvisation there with the bicycle kick to put it home.”

   It was the 20th career goal for Hermannsdottir in the Purple & Gold as she is already on track to secure her fourth season as the Tigers leading scorer.

   The Tigers won the possession battle on the night over the Jags to kick off the season in the win column.

   Senior goalkeeper Sophine Kevorkian played the full 90 minutes in between the posts and recorded two saves to keep a clean sheet on the night, the third of her career for the Tigers. 

   Nine Tigers made their debut on the pitch tonight in the squad’s season opener, including Spain natives Sol Taboada Martinez and Mireia Sanchez, plus freshmen Ryann Denecour and Sariyah Bailey. 

   In their second season, Senai Rogers and Sarah Stadler made their first career appearances in the Purple & Gold, while Annaleigh Bruser also made her return from injury last season. 
Graduate transfers Makenna Dominguez and Morgan Witz also checked in for the first time as Tigers against South Alabama, both earning the start and playing over 50 minutes each, respectively. 

   This year’s captain and key piece to the backline, Jazmin Ferguson, was the only other Tiger to play the full 90 minutes on the night.

​   Gulf Shores, Ala. – The LSU Beach Volleyball fell to No. 6 Cal Poly in a hard-fought battle to close out the 2025 season.
   All courts but Court 1 went into extra points in the first set. Emily Meyer and Skylar Martin lost Court 4; 22-20 and 14-21, while Kate Baker and Tatum Finlason lost Court 5; 24-26 and 10-21, to give Cal Poly a 2-0 lead in the duel. Elle Evers and Julia Sprecher fought but ultimately fell short, losing Court 3; 22-24 and 19-21. Gabi Bailey and Parker Bracken on Court 1 and Aubrey O’Gorman and Camryn Chatellier did not complete their matches due to the duel being played to decision.

   “It’s not possible to put into words the combination of how proud I am and how tough it is to be done,” said head coach Russell Brock. “We knew this would be a really challenging match, but to lose in such an amazingly close manner makes it sting a little more. We played great and played well enough to win, but it just didn’t go our way. So many of the things that were in our control we executed amazingly. The season as a whole was one of the most gratifying ones I’ve been a part of. From where we started to where we finished, the team is almost unrecognizable. It will be impossible to replace our seniors, Gabi, Parker, Emily, Madison, and Cassidy. I’m so grateful for how they have influenced our program. While we will miss them, their leadership and the remarkable example they set, it’s impossible not to recognize how capable our young returning players on our roster are. I’m so proud of our whole team and staff for the season we had. I’m also excited about the future of our program.”

These next two weeks will be a great opportunity to build and grow,” said Brock. “We have made progress every week this year as we’ve improved and the season has progressed. I expect they will make great strides in the next two weeks as we train for the most important events of our season.”

      TALLAHASSEE, FL – The No. 10 LSU Beach Volleyball team went 2-1 on Friday with wins over No. 15 Florida Atlantic and South Florida in Tallahassee, Florida.
   
   The Sandy Tigs will compete in two matches to close out the weekend on Saturday, starting at 9:15 AM CT against No. 8 Texas and then against South Carolina at 11:45 AM CT. The Sandy Tigs are back at home next weekend, April 11-12, for the final regular season tournament for the 2025 season.
   
   ‘Today was a long day with strong competition,” said head coach Russell Brock. “I’m proud of how we played as a team. There were plenty of distractions heading into today and the team did a really good job of blocking out the challenges off the court and playing really solid volleyball. We did what we needed to do today to keep moving forward and building our resume. Two more big matches tomorrow are waiting for us. I’m looking forward to seeing how we respond after a long, hot day today.’
   
   LSU started out the day with a 4-1 win over South Florida. Due to South Florida not being eligible to compete for a national championship in 2025, the game is considered an exhibition match and does not count towards LSU’s record. Aubrey O’Gorman and Julia Sprecher got things started for the Sandy Tigs, winning Court 3; 21-14 and 21-11. Emily Meyer and Skylar Martin followed in their footsteps, winning Court 5 in dominant fashion; 21-15 and 21-13. Gabi Bailey and Parker Bracken clinched the match for the Tigers, winning Court 1; 21-19 and 21-16. Tatum Finlason and Kate Baker fell on Court 4; 15-21, 21-17 and 11-15, while Elle Evers and Camryn Chatellier finished out the match, winning Court 2; 17-21, 21-19, and 15-7.
   
   After a break, the Sandy Tigs came out with an AVCA Top 20 win against No. 15 Florida Atlantic, 3-2. Finlason and Baker put up point number one for LSU dominating Court 4; 21-9 and 21-13. Evers and Chatellier fell on Court 2; 22-20 and 22-20, to even up the match at one point apiece. O’Gorman and Sprecher took the lead back for the Tigers, winning Court 3; 27-25 and 21-17. Meyer and Martin battled it out in three sets on Court 5 to clinch the match for the Sandy Tigs; 21-10, 19-21, and 15-12. Bailey and Bracken fell on Court 1; 22-20, 19-21 and 21-15, to give the FAU Owls their second point of the match.
   
   For the final match of the day, LSU faced No. 5 FSU in an AVCA Top 10 matchup and fell just short against the Seminoles. Meyer and Martin took care of business to have LSU strike first, winning Court 5; 21-17 and 21-13. Evers and Chatellier fell on Court 2; 21-18 and 21-11, while Bailey and Bracken fell on Court 1; 21-12 and 21-15, to give FSU a 2-1 lead. O’Gorman and Sprecher battled on Court 3 to tie up the match at two points apiece; 21-18, 16-21, and 15-13. With the match coming down to Court 4; Finlason and Baker fought in three sets but ultimately fell short; 19-21, 21-19, and 10-15 .

   BATON ROUGE, La. – The LSU track and field team closed out the Battle on the Bayou at home on Saturday, hosted at the Bernie Moore Track & Field Stadium. The end half of the meet was eventually canceled due to the weather.Final Results
   
   One of the biggest moments from Saturday’s action came from freshman Jelani Watkins in heat two of the 100 meter. The race marked his collegiate opener in the event and he made his way to a time of 10.01 seconds (+2.1 m/s), just over the wind-legal limit of 2.0 m/s. Watkins finished taking second next to the World-Championship competitor Eddie Nketia by just .004 of a second. The time tied him with Nketia for the national lead and makes him the sole leader of the SEC.
   
   The meet finished early due to inclement weather, but it only took Jevan Parara one throw to leave his mark at the meet. Parara tossed the No. 8 mark in LSU performance-list history of 56.13 meters (184’ 2”) on his first and only attempt. Freshman Chad Hendricks took second behind him, also only getting one throw due to the weather, reaching the distance of 55.06 meters (180’ 7”).
Sophomore Leah Acosta had an injury scare last season that left her unable to walk and required screws in her ankle. Today she made her collegiate debut in disc throw and was able to crack the LSU Top-10 list in it. Acosta reached a mark of 51.88 meters (170’ 2”) on her fifth toss of the afternoon, putting her at No. 9 in LSU history. She also recorded a PR of 14.60 meters (47’ 10.75” in shot put, which was just short of the LSU PL.

   Taylor Fingers leaped out to a win today in her triple-jump opener. The sophomore reached a distance of 13.04 meters (42’ 9.5”) to earn the win, but the mark was over the allowable wind limit of +4.0 m/s. Her top legal mark on the day came in at 12.68 meters (41’ 7.25”).

   The men’s high jump was one of the few events going on when the meet eventually was canceled due to the weather, but the event was moved inside to close the meet. Freshman Kam Franklin reached a personal-best height of 2.17 meters (7’ 1.25”) to finish third in his opener. Franklin’s height puts him at No. 8 on the all-time LSU PL outdoors.

To play three top teams that the rest of the country assumed were better than us by a pretty significant margin and to come out with two wins and push the match with the number one team in the country to the very edge of victory, I couldn’t be prouder of this group. Obviously, we still have another match to play tomorrow against another really good team, so there’s still work left to do, but I can’t wait to see how we respond to another matchup against one of the top teams in the country. This team is special. I love working with them.”

​   MANHATTAN BEACH, CALIF. – The No. 11 LSU Beach Volleyball team went 1-3 at the East Meets West Invitational, defeating No. 18 Hawaii while falling to No. 1 UCLA, No. 2 LMU and No. 7 California.
   The Sandy Tigs are on the road for the third weekend in a row to Austin, Texas for the East Meets West tournament, March 21-22. LSU will face No. 2 LMU, No. 7 California, No. 10 Arizona State and No. 14 GCU over the course of the weekend.

   “Really proud of our group this weekend,” said head coach Russell Brock. “We were challenged every time we stepped in the sand. Today we definitely made progress. Winning is always an inevitable measure in athletics. It would have been great to have more wins, but we finished on a great note and thankfully we have many more chances to not only improve but also to get some more big wins as we work through our season.”

   LSU began the day with a 0-5 loss against No. 7 California, where three courts lost in straight sets while two battled it out in three. In the first wave, Aubrey O’Gorman and Julia Sprecher lost Court 2; 18-21 and 13-21. Elle Evers and Skylar Martin battled back after a first set loss to take Court 4 to three sets but ultimately lost; 13-21, 22-20, and 9-15 to give the California Bears a 2-0 lead going into the second wave. Gabi Bailey and Parker Bracken fell on Court 1; 16-21 and 21-19, while Emily Meyer and Kate Baker lost Court 5 minutes later; 17-21 and 18-21. Tatum Finlason and Camryn Chatellier rounded out the match with a three-set battle that ultimately went in California’s favor; 22-20, 16-21 and 10-15.

   After a break, LSU faced No. 18 Hawaii and won the match three courts to one in a game that came down to a deciding court. Evers and Martin got the first point on the board for the Sandy Tigs on Court 4; 21-18 and 21-16 while O’Gorman and Sprecher lost Court 2 in three sets; 20-22, 24-22 and 8-15, to even the match at 1-1. Heading into the second wave, Finlason and Chatellier fell on Court 3; 13-21 and 17-21. Meyer and Baker evened up the match with a win on Court 5; 21-18 and 21-14 to make the duel score 2-2. With the match on the line, Bailey and Bracken took care of business, winning Court 1; 21-16 and 21-16, to give LSU the win.

   MANHATTAN BEACH, CALIF. – The No. 11 LSU Beach Volleyball team went 0-2 on day one of the East Meets West Invitational, falling to No. 1 UCLA and No. 2 LMU.
   
   The Sandy Tigs will compete in two matches on Saturday, starting at 10:30 AM CT against No. 7 California, then closing out the weekend against No. 18 Hawaii at 2:30 PM. After the weekend, the Tigers are on the road for the third weekend in a row to Austin, Texas for the East Meets West tournament, March 21-22.
   
   “Today was a great test,” said head coach Russell Brock. “The first match was definitely a challenge. You could tell that we were a little timid, not quite as aggressive as we should be. We had a great conversation afterwards and talked about how when you play good teams, you have to trust your game and continue to play as an aggressor. I was really happy with the response in the second match. I thought we played that way and the results showed. Anytime we play, we expect a win, and hope to get a win. We didn’t get one today, but there’s no doubt that we improved. Looking forward to tomorrow and the challenges that it brings.”
   
   LSU began the day with a 0-5 loss against No. 2 LMU, where all courts lost in straight sets. In the first wave, Elle Evers and Skylar Martin lost Court 4; 14-21 and 19-21, while Aubrey O’Gorman and Julia Sprecher lost Court 2; 21-14 and 21-11 to give LMU the 2-0 lead. Tatum Finlason and Camryn Chatellier fell on Court 3; 12-21 and 9-21, while Emily Meyer and Kate Baker lost on Court 5; 16-21 and 19-21. Gabi Bailey and Parker Bracken finished the match on Court 1, losing; 16-21 and 16-21.
   
​   After a break, LSU faced No. 1 UCLA and lost a hard-fought game 4-1. Three out of the five courts went to three sets. O’Gorman and Sprecher fell on Court 2; 15-21 and 7-21. Evers and Martin lost a three-set match on Court 4 to round out the first wave of play; 14-21, 22-20 and 13-15. Meyer and Baker lost on Court 5; 21-23 and 19-21. Bailey and Bracken earned the only court win for the Sandy Tigs, winning Court 1; 23-21, 13-21 and 15-13.
