With the LSU women taking the basketball national championship a few weeks ago, the softball success and the growing attention to gymnastics, attendance is skyrocketing for women’s sports at LSU.
As we’ve all seen, basketball superstar [autotag]Angel Reese[/autotag] has taken the national spotlight. She’s been on multiple sports shows including “NBA Today,” “SportsCenter” and “Get Up.” Gymnastics star [autotag]Olivia Dunne[/autotag] is currently the third-most valuable college athlete in the country per On3, landing multiple huge NIL deals including American Eagle and Forever 21.
LSU has arguably become the place to be for women’s athletics, and it doesn’t look like that will end any time soon. Women’s basketball coach [autotag]Kim Mulkey[/autotag] has produced a top recruiting class in the country, Tiger softball is currently ranked No. 12 in the country with attendance numbers up significantly in 2023, and the gymnastics team just finished fourth in the NCAA finals.
We are just scratching the surface of what could be for women’s athletics at LSU, and the Tigers brand has become increasingly valuable to women across the country.
