LSU’s women’s basketball team is a colossal favorite heading into a Tuesday night home matchup against McNeese, but it will be without one of its top players.
According to a report from WAFB’s Jacques Doucet, [autotag]Hailey Van Lith[/autotag] will miss her second straight game as she deals with a foot injury. Van Lith also missed Sunday’s 83-53 win over Louisiana.
Junior guard [autotag]Last-Tear Poa[/autotag] is likely to make her fifth start of the year in this game after also starting in the win over the Ragin’ Cajuns.
A graduate transfer from Louisville, Van Lith has started all nine games that she has appeared in this season, averaging 12.2 points and leading the team with five assists per game.
The Tigers will hope she’s able to make her return against Northwestern State on Sunday.
