The LSU women’s basketball team is heading to Connecticut in December to take part in the 11th annual Basketball Hall of Fame Women’s Showcase. The Tigers will face Seton Hall at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut, on Dec. 17.
LSU opened last season playing in a Hall of Fame series event in Las Vegas against Colorado.
“We are really excited to bring LSU to the Mohegan Sun to play Seton Hall in December,” coach [autotag]Kim Mulkey[/autotag] said in a release. “We have participated in Hall of Fame events before and are looking forward to do so once again.”
Mohegan Sun Arena is an hour from the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, into which Mulkey was inducted in 2020 and [autotag]Seimone Augustus[/autotag] — a former star player at LSU who was hired as an assistant last week — will be inducted in October as part of the 2024 class.
