A New Era of Lady Tiger Basketball Nikki Caldwell ushered in a new era of LSU Lady Tiger basketball as she officially became the seventh head coach in school history on April 4, 2011 at a press conference at the LSU Athletic Administration Building.
Nikki Caldwell BASKETBALL “Winning championships doesn’t happen overnight. You have to have great leadership, team cohesion, and a relentless desire to never quit.” A superstar in the women’s basketball coaching profession, Nikki Caldwell has brought LSU women’s basketball back to national prominence. Caldwell carries a dynamic personality with steadfast leadership and an unwavering commitment to excellence on and off the court. Her championship pedigree began as a player at Tennessee in 1991. It continued to her days as assistant coach with the Lady Vols where she was a part of two national championships, three Southeastern Conference regular season championships and three SEC Tournament titles from 2002-08.

Caldwell transformed UCLA in three seasons to a national power. It took her one year to spearhead LSU to its first SEC Tournament Championship Game appearance since 2008. Caldwell’s players achieve on the court, in the classroom and in the community. On the floor, Caldwell’s teams are known for their exciting up-tempo style, their attention to detail and discipline and their cornerstone of great defensive play. Off the floor, Caldwell’s players are model citizens. In two seasons, she has guided the Lady Tigers to back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances, an NCAA Sweet 16 and consecutive 10-win SEC seasons. In the classroom, LSU has maintained a perfect 100 in the NCAA Graduation Success Rate, which leads the SEC.
“LSU should get the hire of the year award in hiring Nikki Caldwell. When you look at what she did at UCLA in a short amount of time, Nikki is a winner. She works hard. She knows how to relate to people and she is a constant student of the game. There is more than one way to do things and she is going to find the right way that works with the players she has.” - Carolyn Peck, ESPN analyst and former coach

Back to Winning
On her first week on the job, Caldwell, her staff and the Lady Tigers biked from the LSU campus to the historic Louisiana State Capitol as part of a team building experience. “It’s important for our players to realize that they are more than just student-athletes here at LSU, they are ambassadors for the city of Baton Rouge and the state of Louisiana,” Caldwell said.
Every year, Caldwell journeys across the country as part of “Cruisin’ for a Cause,” a motorcycle adventure created to raise dollars and awareness for a cure for breast cancer. Caldwell and Tennessee head coach Holly Warlick co-founded Champions for A Cause. The non-profit foundation has raised thousands of dollars to help find a cure.
More than 1,100 fans turned out to the inaugural “Lady Tiger Lagniappe” in the summer 2011 as Caldwell laid out plans for the future of the LSU program, introduced her players and signed hundreds of autographs. “LSU is back, and I am so proud to be your coach,” Caldwell said after receiving a standing ovation.
Since Caldwell’s hiring in April 2012, ticket sales for LSU women’s basketball have seen a dramatic increase. Caldwell was featured on a billboard campaign throughout Baton Rouge and in Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, when the LSU football team hosted Oregon in front of a national audience.
Caldwell has twice been selected by the USA Women’s Basketball Committee to serve as an assistant coach for USA National Teams. In 2012, she was a member of the USA U18 FIBA Americas gold medal squad. The following summer, she helped lead the USA U19 team to gold at the FIBA World Championships in Lithuania.
After missing the NCAA Tournament prior to her arrival, Caldwell immediately made an impact as the Lady Tigers won 23 games in her first season – the most in four years – and LSU reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament and the championship game of the SEC Tournament. Last season, the Lady Tigers reached their first NCAA Sweet 16 since 2008 and finished the season ranked No. 21, their highest ranking since the 2008 Final Four campaign. 2 0 1 3 - 1 4 w o m e n ’ s b a s k e t b a l l ME D I A G U I D E

Final Four LEGACY
LSU Lady Tiger Basketball and Final Fours are synonymous. LSU has a proud tradition of Final Four teams that began a historic streak in 2004. From Hall of Famer Sue Gunter to the players who have donned a Lady Tiger jersey since that season, Final Four basketball at LSU is a legacy that carries on and the pinnacle to which every player aspires to reach.
2008

The Drive for Five ended in Tampa as first-year LSU head coach Van Chancellor reached the Final Four. LSU became only the second program in NCAA Division I history to advance to five straight Final Fours, doing so behind the play of All-American and SEC Player of the Year Sylvia Fowles. The Lady Tigers edged No. 2 North Carolina in the New Orleans Regional Final.
2 0 1 3 - 1 4 w o m e n ’ s b a s k e t b a l l ME D I A G U I D E
2007
Under associate head coach Bob Starkey, LSU overcame a late season adversity and hoisted a fourth Final Four trophy by winning the Fresno Regional over top-seeded Connecticut. State Farm All-American Sylvia Fowles shattered the LSU record books for blocked shots and rebounds.
2006
Seimone Augustus leaves a magnificent legacy as the most decorated player in school history. The 2006 National Player of the Year guided the Lady Tigers to a third straight Final Four with a 31-4 record, another Southeastern Conference championship and a victory over Stanford in the regional final. The trip to Boston culminated a year of record-breaking attendances for LSU.
2005
33-3 overall. 27-1 regular season. 14-0 perfect SEC regular season. It was unchartered territory for an LSU program in the national spotlight. In one of the most dominating seasons in school history, the Lady Tigers made it back-to-back Final Four appearances after topping Duke in the regional final. Seimone Augustus became the school’s first National Player of the Year.
2004
When LSU began its run in the 2004 NCAA Tournament, it was the culmination of a season of destiny that ended in New Orleans. Legendary coach Sue Gunter had to miss the final 20 games due to illness, but the Lady Tigers fought on. LSU reached the program’s first Final Four behind sophomore All-American Seimone Augustus and point guard Temeka Johnson as the Lady Tigers defeated Georgia in the regional final.

Louisiana State University and Agricultural & Mechanical College has, throughout its 148year history, served the people of Louisiana, the region, the nation, and the world. LSU is creating a revolution, one of pervasive change and advancement. For the past seven years, the focus of the LSU community has been an increased commitment to excellence. Our progress has been dramatic and shows no sign of stopping. Having witnessed many of yesterday’s possibilities become today’s tangible realities, the LSU community set forth to capitalize on its success. The goal was to improve our standing as a nationally competitive flagship university. Following intense discussions among the LSU Board of Supervisors, campus administrators, faculty, and student leaders, the objectives required to reach this status crystallized, providing the impetus for LSU’s National Flagship Agenda.
WhyLSU?
Temeka Johnson Point guard (2001-05) 2009 WNBA Champion
“Going to LSU was the best decision I could have made. I knew that I would get a great education, and my basketball career would expand and grow as well. I knew I would also get to play with some great talents. But what made it all worthwhile for me was the fact that all this was topped off with being a part of a family. This is the best part, once a Tiger always a Tiger and this is the feeling that you get when you step foot on the campus. I am part of a sisterhood that is like none other. I love it.”
“When you go back and get your degree, it says a lot about your work ethic. I accomplished things that I will never forget here. I come home to Miami, but a lot of people don’t know me like everyone in Baton Rouge and the fans. Baton Rouge and LSU has been my home. If I had to do it all over again, LSU would be the only place I would do it.”
“LSU has the greatest fans. Being a hometown girl from Baton Rouge, I knew LSU always took pride in its athletic program. You always hear about Tennessee and Connecticut, but I wanted to be able to help put LSU up there on the map with them. We accomplished a lot during my time. I wouldn’t change it for anything. I got to play for one of the greatest coaches in history in Coach Gunter. I got to play with a group of women that became my family.”
“This is a tremendous honor to graduate from LSU. Coming from Texas, I always knew this was the right choice. From my time on the court to the classroom, LSU has been home to me. Getting a degree is what it is all about and I thank everyone who had an impact on my time at LSU. What we accomplished and all of the friends I have made, that will always be a part of my life.”

Children’s Hospital Visit
In the summer 2012, the Lady Tigers spent time greeting individuals with early to mild stages of Alzheimer’s disease at Charlie’s Place in Baton Rouge. The studentathletes introduced themselves, played games and told stories during their time there. Charlie’s Place with Services of the Capital Area serves a mission to make a significant difference in the lives of those coping with Alzheimer’s disease in the Baton Rouge area.
Coach Nikki Caldwell teamed up with Wichita State head coach Jody Adams prior to the 2011 seasonopener to help support breast cancer awareness. The two spoke at the “Color Me Pink” luncheon that drew over 400 fans. All proceeds went to breast cancer research, a cause Caldwell has been very passionate about.
The Lady Tigers routinely visit patients at Our Lady of the Lake Children’s Hospital in Baton Rouge. The team goes room-to-room, greeting all of the patients, singing autographs, taking pictures and handing our basketballs and t-shirts. The children range from age five to 14.

Career DEVELOPMENT Student Affairs and the Shaquille O’Neal Life Skills Program Career/Professional Development
Health/Wellness
In order for student-athletes to be truly prepared for their careers, it is the goal of the Student Affairs and the Shaquille O’Neal Life Skills Program to ensure that each student-athlete will leave LSU with a professional resume, cover letter, and interview experience. The program has three phases: career preparation, the “job project” and a career symposium. Many LSU studentathletes gain experience with career-developing jobs in the community during the summer months.
The goal of the Health & Wellness component of the Student Affairs division is to inform and educate studentathletes about the various health and wellness related issues that they will encounter throughout their tenure at LSU and beyond.
How can CHAMPS help? The CHAMPS (Challenging Athletes Minds for Personal Success)/Life Skills program was developed by the NCAA to help prepare student-athletes for the challenges of life beyond the playing field. By focusing on “real life” skills and personal development, the CHAMPS program not only assists student-athletes with meeting daily challenges but also enhances their growth in college years and beyond.
Diversity, Inclusion & Civic Engagement The Cox Communications Academic Center for StudentAthletes strives to celebrate, highlight, affirm, and embrace the diversity of LSU student-athletes. They provide an environment that is respectful of cultural, racial, and ethnic differences by acknowledging their individuality and uniqueness. In addition, the programs emphasize the importance of giving back and citizenship by engaging in the University and surrounding community.

1980 USA Head Coach, 1976 Assistant Coach Sue Gunter’s coaching career extends beyond the boundaries of the Southeast with an international resume that laid the groundwork for today’s Olympic success story. Gunter was the head coach of the USA National Team in 1976, which set the table for her assistant coaching position under Billie Moore and the 1976 Olympic team. In their first Olympic appearance, the USA brought home the silver medal in Montreal. Gunter was then named head coach of the USA national team in both 1978 and 1980, leading to her being named the head coach of the USA Olympic team in 1980. The 1980 Olympic team included such great players like Denise Curry, Carol Blazekowski, Anne Donovan, Rosie Walker, and Lynette Woodard. The USA stormed to a 6-1 record during the qualifying tournament. However, the dream for Team USA’s first Olympic gold medal was cut short when President Jimmy Carter ordered a boycott of the 1980 Olympic games in protest of the Soviet Union’s invasion of Afghanistan.

Augustus and Fowles’ achievements were the 14th and 15th gold medals won by LSU athletes - former or current - in Olympic history. From coach Sue Gunter’s silver medal at the 1976 Games to coach Van Chancellor’s gold medal at the 2004 Games, LSU women’s basketball has been associated with six Olympic medals.

Pettit led LSU to its first NCAA Final Four in 1953 and he later became the first player in NBA history to exceed the 20,000-plus point barrier. Pettit is a member of the NBA Hall of Fame, and in 1997, he was named as one of the top 50 players in NBA history.
O’Neal was the first pick in the 1992 NBA Draft. He was named MVP of the league in 2000 and was a three-time NBA Finals MVP after leading the Los Angeles Lakers to three World Championships. At LSU, O’Neal averaged 21.6 points and 13.6 rebounds for his career, and in 1991, he was named the World’s Amateur Athlete of the Year as well as SEC Athlete of the Year and National Player of the Year. In 1997, he was named as one of the top 50 players in NBA history.
“Pistol Pete,” Maravich still holds the NCAA record for career points with 3,667 and for career scoring average with 44.2 points a game. He was selected the National Player of the Year in 1970 after leading the Tigers to the NIT Final Four. He scored 50-plus points an amazing 28 times. He went on to a 10-year professional career and was selected as one of the NBA’s 50 greatest players in 1997.
A legend in the college baseball ranks, Bertman created a dynasty at LSU, guiding the Tigers to five national titles in a 10-year stretch from 1991-2000. He also coached the United States to a bronze medal at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta and was an assistant on the gold medal-winning U.S. squad in Seoul, Korea, in 1988. Bertman retired from coaching following the 2001 season and served as LSU’s athletics director for seven years. Bertman was inducted into the College Baseball Hall of Fame in 2006.
One of the true legends of college football in the South, Cannon was the 1959 Heisman Trophy winner and helped the Tigers to the 1958 national title. Cannon’s most memorable performance came in 1959 against Ole Miss when No. 1 LSU trailed No. 3 Ole Miss 3-0 in the fourth quarter. He fielded a punt, broke seven tackles and returned it 89 yards for the 7-3 victory. He went on to a successful 11-year professional career.
Rudy Macklin was a two-time basketball All-American selection during his Tiger career from 1976-81 during which time he became LSU’s all-time leading rebounder with 1,276 boards and the secondleading scorer in school history behind only the legendary Pete Maravich with 2,080 points. He led the Tigers to two Elite Eight appearances and the 1981 Final Four in Philadelphia. He still holds the school single game rebound record with 32, a mark like some of the great records in any sport that may never be broken.

2013-14 women’s basketball MEDIA GUIDE
About LSU Retired Jerseys The retirement of the jerseys of Casanova, McDonald, Macklin and Augustus comes under a new provision of the LSU jersey retirement bylaws that says the retirement of an athlete’s jersey in a particular sport does not preclude a current student-athlete in that sport from wearing the jersey number in that or any other sport, subject to the discretion of the head coach. This provision applies only to jerseys retired after January 1, 2007, so the numbers worn by Maravich, Pettit, O’Neal, Cannon and Bertman may never again be worn by future student-athletes in their respective sports. To have a jersey retired at LSU, an athlete must have completed intercollegiate competition for LSU a minimum of five years prior to nomination. Athletes must have demonstrated truly unusual and outstanding accomplishments, exceeding and in addition to all criteria used for Hall of Fame selection. Nominees must have a unanimous vote of support from the Hall of Fame committee.
37 Tommy Casanova
Tommy Casanova is the only three-time AllAmerican in the history of LSU football and is a member of the College Football Hall of Fame. During his Tiger career from 1969-71, Casanova personified versatility for his myriad of talents as he played offense, defense, returned punts and kickoffs. One of just two three-time All-SEC performers at LSU, he played six seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals of the NFL while earning his medical degree.

He was selected by the Baltimore Orioles as the No. 1 pick in the major league draft in 1989 and went on to enjoy a 10-year major league career with the Orioles and the Milwaukee Brewers.
33 Seimone Augustus
Seimone Augustus is the only women’s basketball player in school history to earn State Farm Coaches Association All-America honors three times: 2004, 2005 and 2006.

Lady Tigers
Timeline
LSU is entering its 39th season of women’s basketball. The Lady Tigers first played basketball as a varsity sport in 1975-76 and since that inaugural season, LSU has posted 34 winning seasons, played in 22 NCAA Tournaments, advanced to the AIAW National Championship game in 1977 and the NCAA Final Four in 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008.
The Coaches LSU women’s basketball has featured illustrious Hall of Fame coaches since its inception. Jinks Coleman coached the Lady Tigers for three and a half years before stepping down midway through the 1978-79 season. In three-plus years, Coleman guided LSU to a 91-32 overall mark. Her crowning moment with LSU came during the 1976-77 season as she led the Lady Tigers to the AIAW National Championship game. LSU fell to top-ranked Delta State, but that 1977 team remains the only squad in school history to play for a national title. Coleman’s 1977-78 team holds the school record for most victories with 37. Coleman was replaced by Barbara Swanner midway through the 1979 season and Swanner coached the Lady Tigers for the next three years. She led LSU to an overall mark of 57-50 before ending her coaching career at the conclusion of the 1981-82 season. Hall of Famer Sue Gunter joined the Lady Tigers for the 1982-83 season. In 22 seasons with the Lady Tigers, Gunter led the Lady Tigers to 442 victories and guided her teams to 14 NCAA Tournament appearances, the 1991 and 2003 SEC Tournament titles and the 2004 NCAA Final Four. Gunter, who retired following the 2003-04 season, is a member of the both
48 LSU
the Naismith Hall of Fame and the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame. She added another accolade to her historic career in the spring of 2010 when she was inducted into the LSU Athletic Hall of Fame. Gunter was a true pioneer for the sport and her legacy at LSU remains the foundation of the program. Pokey Chatman replaced Gunter after serving as the acting head coach for 20 games in 2003-04, guiding the team to a 15-5 mark, including the program’s first trip to the NCAA Final Four. She finished her career during the 2006-07 season with a 90-14 record. Bob Starkey served as acting head coach during the 2007 NCAA Tournament. Starkey led the Lady Tigers to a fourth straight Final Four appearance as he produced a 4-1 record, including a 73-50 upset of Connecticut in the Fresno Regional Final. Van Chancellor was named the sixth head coach in LSU history on April 11, 2007. Chancellor, a Naismith Hall of Famer and the all-time winningest head coach in WNBA history, led the Lady Tigers to a Final Four and three straight NCAA Tournament appearances. Chancellor coached for four seasons and stepped down following the 2010-11 season. He finished his LSU tenure with a 90-40 record. In April 2011, LSU Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics Joe Alleva
2013-14 women’s basketball MEDIA GUIDE
named Nikki Caldwell the seventh head coach in the history of the program. Caldwell stepped to the podium on April 4 and delivered the following message: “The first thing I thought about was Sue Gunter. She came to mind right off the bat. Having played in the SEC and having played against those old Sue Gunter teams back in the 90s, I was just moved because she has meant so much to a lot of us, our career, and our choices to go into college coaching because of what she has done for women’s basketball. I can’t tell you enough how honored I am to be a part of such a great legacy.” Caldwell brought a winning attitude back to the program as she guided LSU to back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances, including the Sweet 16 in 2013.
The 1970s The decade of the 1970s saw the start of women’s basketball as a varsity sport at LSU. The Lady Tigers played their first game in November of 1975, losing to Whitworth, 64-58. LSU’s first win came a week later with a 75-62 win over Southwestern Louisiana. The win was the first of 17 for the Lady Tigers in their inaugural season as LSU posted a first-year mark of 17-14. A year later, LSU, behind the play of a couple of Australians in Maree Jackson and Julie Gross, was playing for the AIAW National title. After
going unrecognized for much of the year, LSU finally began to gain some respect with wins over three ranked teams in February. The Lady Tigers entered the AIAW State Tournament on a roll, however, LSU lost to Louisiana Tech and Northwestern State, but they were still able to advance to the AIAW Regional Tournament. At Regionals, the Lady Tigers beat Texas, Stephen F. Austin and Baylor to advance to the AIAW National Tournament. By this time the Lady Tigers were ranked No. 11 in the nation and after wins over Western Washington and Baylor, LSU was in the Final Four. LSU knocked off second-ranked Immaculata, 74-68, in the semifinals and then fell to top-ranked Delta State, 68-55, in the national title game. LSU finished with a 29-8 overall mark, the second-most victories recorded in school history in a single year at the time. In 1977-78, the Lady Tigers achieved their first No. 1 ranking as LSU spent most of January and February atop the Associated Press poll, after having started the year ranked No. 2 in the nation. The Lady Tigers stayed there until Feb. 15 when Tennessee moved ahead of LSU. Despite being ranked No. 2 in the nation, LSU couldn’t advance out of the Regionals as the Sue Guntercoached Stephen F. Austin Lady Jacks eliminated the Lady Tigers
The 1990s
LSU’s first team - 1975-76 in the semifinals. LSU still won 37 games, which remains the school record for victories in a season. LSU closed out the decade of the 1970’s with a coaching change as Jinks Coleman stepped down after 15 games in the 1978-79 season. With an 8-7 mark, Coleman was replaced by Barbara Swanner, who guided LSU to a 5-5 mark over the final 10 games of the year. LSU finished with a 13-12 record.
The 1980s The decade of the 80s saw LSU establish itself as one of the top programs in the country. LSU opened the decade under Barbara Swanner and posted a 17-17 mark and reached the semifinals of the AIAW Regional Tournament. A year later, Joyce Walker came to Baton Rouge and put women’s basketball at LSU back on the map. Walker, who was way ahead of her time, could do it all. In her first year with the Lady Tigers she averaged 20.7 points a contest and led the Lady Tigers to a 17-15 mark. A year later, the NCAA became the governing body of women’s athletics and the NCAA Tournament was started. The Lady Tigers didn’t make the NCAA Tournament in 1982, but still posted an 18-13 overall mark as Walker averaged 24.9 points a contest. That season was Swanner’s last year as head coach of the Lady Tigers. The 1982-83 season was the first for the Lady Tigers under Sue Gunter, who came to LSU from Stephen F. Austin in Nacogdoches, Texas. In her first year with LSU, Gunter guided the Lady Tigers to a 20-7 mark and a tie for first place in the Western Division of the SEC. Walker’s last year with LSU in 1983-84 marked the Lady Tigers’ first-ever appearance in the NCAA Tournament. LSU went 23-7 and reached the Sweet 16 at the NCAA Tournament before falling to Louisiana Tech. In 1984-85, the Lady Tigers
claimed the National Women’s Invitational Tournament (NWIT) title with a 74-54 win over Florida in the championship game. LSU’s best season since 1977 occurred in 1985-86 as the Lady Tigers climbed all the way to No. 8 in the nation and reached the Elite Eight at the NCAA Tournament before falling to Tennessee in the final seconds, 67-65. Another 20-win season followed in 1986-87 as the Lady Tigers spent most of the year ranked in the top 10. However, the Lady Tigers lost their last three games, including a 70-56 setback to Southern Illinois in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. The 1987-88 season saw the arrival of Dana “Pokey” Chatman, the best point guard in school history. Chatman helped guide the Lady Tigers to an 18-11 mark and another NCAA Tournament appearance. LSU closed out the 1980s with its fifth NCAA Tournament appearance as LSU reached the Sweet 16 before falling to Louisiana Tech.
The decade of the 1990s was one of ups and downs for the Lady Tigers. LSU opened the decade with a 21-9 overall mark and its fifth NCAA Tournament appearance. A year later, the Pokey Chatman era came to an end as the Lady Tigers posted a 24-7 overall mark, won the school’s first SEC Tournament title and were seeded No. 2 in the Midwest Region of the NCAA Tournament. The 1991-92 season started the Cornelia Gayden era, but it was also the beginning of a stretch that saw the Lady Tigers go five years without an appearance in the NCAA Tournament. LSU posted a 16-13 overall mark, but five straight losses in mid-February kept the Lady Tigers home in March. A year later in 1992-93, the Lady Tigers had their first-ever losing record as LSU went 9-18 and was winless in the SEC for the first time. Things weren’t much better in 199394 as LSU went 11-16 overall and tied for 10th in the SEC. One of the bright spots in 199495 was Sue Gunter’s 500th career victory on the same night Gayden set an NCAA record with 12 3-point goals in a 92-62 win over Jackson State on Feb. 9 in Baton Rouge. LSU suffered through its worst record ever that year as the Lady Tigers posted a 7-20 mark. Despite the losing record the year prior, LSU signed one of the nation’s best recruiting classes for the 1995-96 season and the results were immediate. LSU had the biggest turnaround in SEC history as the Lady Tigers went from 7-20 in 1994-95 to 21-11 in 1995-96. Junior college transfers Elaine Powell and Pietra Gay help lead LSU to a win over second-ranked Georgia in the
SEC Tournament as the Lady Tigers appeared to be headed for its first NCAA Tournament appearance in five years, but was denied. The Lady Tigers settled for the NWIT, where they placed third out of eight teams. The following year, LSU posted its best record in the 90’s as they went 25-5 overall, won nine SEC games and reached the Sweet 16 for the first time since 1989. In 1997-98, the Lady Tigers, in what was supposed to be a rebuilding year, posted a 19-13 overall mark and reached the semifinals of the Women’s NIT. In 1998-99 the Lady Tigers, behind the play of senior point guard Latasha Dorsey, the only senior on the team, reached the Sweet 16 for the second time in three years and finished second in the SEC with a school-record 10 league wins. LSU’s 22-8 overall mark in 1998-99 was LSU’s fourth 20-win season of the 1990s.
The 2000s The Lady Tigers rolled into the new millennium much like the way they ended the old one. In 19992000, LSU was 25-7 overall and 11-3 in the SEC, the best record for the program since 1996-97. The 11-3 conference mark was at the time, the best in school history. LSU rode that success all the way to the program’s second Elite Eight appearance in the NCAA Tournament, falling to Connecticut in the regional final. Another 20-win season greeted the Lady Tigers in 200001, compiling a 20-11 mark, including the fifth straight winning conference record at 8-6. The 2001-02 season could have been one of the finest in recent history. Gunter’s group of just six healthy players collected 18

victories, including a trip to the SEC Tournament Championship game and a fourth straight trip to the NCAA Tournament. Building on the success of the previous two seasons, the 2002-03 team went even further, ending the season with a 30-4 record, winning the SEC Tournament title, advancing to the NCAA Elite Eight and finishing the season ranked No. 3 in the national rankings. The SEC Tournament title was the second in program history and the first since 1991. It was in 2003-04 that the much eluded goal of the Lady Tigers was reached, advancing to the Final Four. The 2003-04 team posted at 27-8 record and steamed through the NCAA Tournament on its way to New Orleans and the Final Four. Despite the success, the 2003-04 season was full of adversity. Hall of Fame head coach Sue Gunter missed most of the season due to illness and ultimately retired following the season. Gunter was replaced during the season and on a full-time basis with former All-American guard Pokey Chatman. The next season, in her first full year, Chatman, again guided the Lady Tigers to success. In 2004-05, LSU posted a 33-3 overall record, was ranked No. 1 in the nation for 11 weeks, won the program’s first SEC regular season title with a perfect 14-0 mark, and advanced to the NCAA Final Four in Indianapolis. Chatman and guard Seimone Augustus earned numerous national honors, including sweeping the National Coach and Player of the Year honors.

The Lady Tigers continued their success in 2005-06 with a return to the Final Four and a repeat as SEC regular season champions. LSU posted a 31-4 overall record and a 13-1 league mark. Seimone Augustus completed her collegiate career as the 2006 National Player of the Year. LSU fell to Duke in the national semifinal in Boston, Mass. The 2006-07 season once again saw the Lady Tigers reach the NCAA Final Four after overcoming some late season adversity. LSU posted a 30-8 overall record and junior center Sylvia Fowles earned Kodak All-American honors. Associate head coach Bob Starkey served as acting head coach during the NCAA Tournament run that saw the Lady Tigers knock off Connecticut, 73-50, in the Fresno Regional Final. LSU took on Rutgers in the national semifinal in Cleveland, Ohio. The Scarlet Knights ended LSU’s season by a score of 59-35. The 2007-08 season saw LSU reach its fifth straight Final Four, becoming only the second program in NCAA women’s history to achieve that feat. Connecticut was the other. First-year head coach Van Chancellor came to LSU after a successful career at Ole Miss and the WNBA’s Houston Comets. Chancellor was named SEC Coach of the Year as he was a perfect fit for a program as prominent as LSU.

LSU lost all of its key players from the 2009 Final Four team, but the Lady Tigers fought on winning five SEC games in a row to close the regular season and reach the NCAA Tournament for the 11th consecutive year. Allison Hightower was LSU’s leader as she became the first player in school history to lead the team in points (14.9), steals (1.9), assists (3.0) and blocks (1.2) in the same season. Hightower was an honorable mention State Farm All-American and freshman LaSondra Barrett made a
significant impact as the 2009 SEC Co-Freshman of the Year. LSU’s season came to an end at home in the second round of the NCAA Tournament, losing to eventual Final Four participant Louisville in the Maravich Center.
A New Decade LSU closed the books on the 2000s as one of the most successful programs in women’s college basketball. From 200409, LSU won 171 contests and no team had advanced to more Final Fours. In Chancellor’s third season during the 2009-10 year, Hightower returned for her senior campaign. It was one of the most productive years by a player in school history. Hightower was named a secondteam All-American by the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award and she was a finalist for the Wooden Award and Naismith Trophy. For the second

Her 18.2 point per game average, sparked LSU to a 21-10 overall record and a 9-7 mark in conference play. The Lady Tigers finished with a share of third place in the final SEC standings. LSU earned a tough draw in the NCAA Tournament, faced with the task of defeating Duke on its home floor of Cameron Indoor Stadium. In a place where the Blue Devils rarely lose, LSU gave Duke all it could handle before falling 60-52 in the NCAA Second Round. Hightower closed out her career as the 13th all-time leading scorer in LSU history. The 2010-11 season would be the last for Chancellor as LSU posted a 19-13 record and an 8-8 mark in SEC

play. The Lady Tigers scored a huge upset of No. 9 UCLA in Los Angeles to highlight non-conference play. LSU also held No. 20 Georgia to its lowest point total ever in an SEC game in a 47-41 win on Jan. 30. The Lady Tigers topped Alabama in the SEC Tournament first round before losing to Kentucky, 60-58, in the SEC Tournament quarterfinal. Junior forward LaSondra Barrett was a first-team All-SEC performer and a State Farm Honorable Mention AllAmerican after averaging 12.2 points and a team-high 6.3 rebounds per game. LSU led the SEC in scoring defense for the seventh straight season, allowing only 52.9 points per contest. Nikki Caldwell ushered in a new era of Lady Tiger basketball in 2011-12. Caldwell, using the motto
“it’s not an option” to miss the NCAA Tournament, sparked LSU to a six-game win streak late in the year. Barrett, playing in her final season, lifted the Lady Tigers to an SEC Tournament run that included beating regular season champion Kentucky for the second time. LSU met Tennessee in the SEC Championship Game as Caldwell dueled against her mentor Pat Summitt in what would be Summitt’s final SEC game. Though the Lady Vols won 70-58, the Lady Tigers made a return to the NCAA Tournament and reached the second round of the event in the Maravich Center. The following season, LSU recorded 22 wins in Caldwell’s second year and overcame several key injuries. The Lady Tigers went on
a seven-game winning streak late in the season, reached the NCAA Tournament and then its first Sweet 16 since 2008. The team developed the motto “Eight is Enough,” and it was said every time they took the floor. After defeating Green Bay in the NCAA Tournament first round in Baton Rouge, the Lady Tigers left the fans with one of the most spectacular victories in school history. Playing without its injured leader in Jeanne Kenney, LSU knocked off third-seeded Penn State, 71-66, in the second round. Senior Adrienne Webb, playing in her final home game, poured in a career-high 27 points that ignited a celebration when the final horn sounded.

On the Prowl Mike the Tiger was recently ranked in the top three in a Bleacher Report poll of college football’s top live mascots. Mike’s habitat is one of the most visited attractions in the state of Louisiana located in the shadows of the north endzone of Tiger Stadium.
Mike The Tiger History of Mike Few mascots in the country are as admired as Mike the Tiger. LSU’s live Bengal mascot serves as the graphic image of all LSU athletic teams. The school has had six mascots, with the most recent, Mike VI, taking over the reign prior to the 2007 national championship football season. LSU veterinarian Dr. David Baker began the search for the young tiger after his predecessor, Mike V, died in May 2007 of renal failure at the age of 17. The sevenyear-old Bengal/Siberian mix, formerly known as “Roscoe,” was donated to LSU by Great Cats of Indiana in Idaville, Ind., a nonprofit sanctuary and rescue facility for big cats and other large carnivores. Mike’s ride through Tiger Stadium before home games in a travel trailer topped by the LSU cheerleaders is a school tradition. Before entering the stadium, his trailer on wheels is parked next to the opponent’s locker room in the southeast end of the stadium. Opposing players must make their way past Mike’s trailer to reach their locker room. Tradition dictates that the Tigers will score a touchdown for every growl issued by Mike before a football game. For many years, Mike was prompted to roar by pounding on the cage. Objections of cruel punishment brought about the use of recorded growls

That practice was discontinued shortly afterward and today Mike participates in the pregame tradition without provocation. In the mid-1980’s, pranksters cut the locks on Mike IV’s cage and freed him in the early-morning hours just days before the annual LSU-Tulane clash. Mike roamed free, playfully knocking down several small pine trees in the area, before being trapped in the Bernie Moore Track Stadium where police used tranquilizer guns to capture and return the Bengal Tiger to his home. The incident was reminiscent of a kidnapping of Mike I many years ago by Tulane students before a Tiger-Green Wave battle.

Mike’s Habitat In 2005, a new environment (above) was created for Mike that is 15,000 square feet in size with lush planting, a large live oak tree, a beautiful waterfall and a stream evolving from a rocky backdrop overflowing with plants and trees. The habitat has, as a backdrop, an Italianate tower - a campanile - that creates a visual bridge to the Italianate architectural vernacular that is the underpinning of the image of the entire beautiful LSU campus. This spectacular habitat features state-of-the-art technologies, research, conservation and husbandry programs, as well as educational, interpretive and recreational activities. It is, in essence, one of the largest and finest Tiger habitats in the United States.

Nikki Caldwell Head Coach • Third Season at LSU
Nikki Caldwell, who won national championships as both a player and an assistant coach at Tennessee and turned UCLA into a national power in just three years, has quickly brought LSU women’s basketball back to national prominence. Caldwell brings to LSU the combination of outstanding in-game coaching ability with that of being a tremendous recruiter. In addition, she has been a leader off the court in the Baton Rouge community, helping the Lady Tigers connect with the city of Baton Rouge while donating their time and efforts to making a difference. Caldwell was officially introduced as the school’s seventh women’s basketball coach on April 4, 2011. She has produced a 45-23 (.662) record in two seasons at the helm with two NCAA Tournament appearances, an NCAA Sweet 16 and 11 victories over ranked opponents. “She’s a star, she’s a role model and she has the priorities of the young student-athletes in her heart and in her mind,” said LSU Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics Joe Alleva. “She wants to make them better, not just as basketball players but as people, and that’s what this is all about. She has been successful on every level and she has all the qualities to bring our program to national prominence.” Caldwell revived the LSU program from her opening press conference. A summer full of speaking engagements, building the fan base and connecting with her players led to a season where attendance increased by an average of over 1,500 fans from the previous season. LSU also signed a top-20 recruiting class as ranked by ESPN HoopGurlz.com. After missing the NCAA Tournament for the first time in 13 years a season prior to her arrival, Caldwell spearheaded the squad to the 2012 NCAA Tournament second round and its first appearance in the Southeastern Conference Tournament championship game since 2008. The Lady Tigers reached 23 wins – their highest total since the 2008 Final Four season – won 10 conference games for the first time since 2009 and claimed wins over five ranked teams during the season. Despite suffering several key injuries, Caldwell led LSU to a six-game win streak late in the SEC season and the Lady Tigers twice knocked off SEC regular season champion Kentucky. She met her mentor in the SEC Championship Game as LSU squared off against Pat Summitt’s Tennessee Lady Vols. Though the Lady Tigers lost, LSU took on Caldwell’s persona – that of toughness and a relentless desire to never quit. Caldwell developed All-SEC forward LaSondra Barrett into one of the nation’s best players. After an NCAA Tournament second round appearance

COACHES
Two-time USA Gold Medalist
National Champion Player In her 11 seasons as a collegiate player, graduate assistant and assistant coach at Tennessee, Caldwell’s teams compiled a record of 344-40, appeared in the NCAA Tournament each year and claimed three national championships.
Caldwell was bestowed the privilege of serving as an assistant coach for the USA U18 National Team in the summer of 2012 and for the USA U19 National Team in 2013. The Americans won the gold medal at the FIBA Americas Championship and the FIBA World Championship.
“I am absolutely thrilled for Nikki. LSU is committed to its women’s basketball program both financially and with the resources they have in place to compete amongst the best teams in the nation. The Southeastern Conference will become much stronger with Nikki joining the league. Her accomplishments in the three short seasons she was at UCLA is indicative of more of what will come from Nikki and her staff at LSU.” - Pat Summitt, Former Tennessee head coach and Hall of Famer against Penn State, Barrett became the first LSU player selected in the first round of the WNBA Draft since 2008 when she was taken 10th overall by the Washington Mystics. Caldwell’s second season in Baton Rouge was a memorable one as the Lady Tigers reached the NCAA Sweet 16 for the first time since 2008. LSU recorded double-digit SEC victories for the second straight year and despite a rash of injuries, put together a team with excellent chemistry that finished the season ranked No. 21 in the Coaches poll. LSU’s seven-game winning streak to close the regular season was the longest into the SEC Tournament since winning seven in a row from 1985-86. The Lady Tigers developed the motto “eight is enough” and used it to dominate No. 13 Texas A&M on the Aggies home floor by a score of 67-52 in the regular season finale. LSU beat Green Bay in the NCAA first round before claiming arguably the signature win of the Caldwell era in the NCAA second round. LSU, without injured guard Jeanne Kenney and dressed with seven players, knocked off No. 8 Penn State, 71-66, in a raucous Maravich Center to reach the Sweet 16. In addition, Caldwell developed forward Theresa Plaisance into one of the nation’s most improved players as the New Orleans native led the SEC in scoring and became the school’s first league scoring champion since Seimone Augustus.
Caldwell recruited All-SEC freshman Danielle Ballard and in her first season, the guard shattered the LSU single-season record for steals with 100. Plaisance, Ballard and senior Adrienne Webb earned all-conference honors. Well respected in coaching circles, Caldwell has twice been selected by the USA Women’s Basketball Committee to serve as an assistant coach for USA National Teams. In the summer of 2012, she became the first coach in LSU history to serve on a USA U18 team staff since the squad’s inception in 1988. That team claimed the gold medal at the FIBA Americas Championship. In the summer of 2013, most of that group reunited to lead the USA U19 National Team to a gold medal at the FIBA World Championships in Lithuania. Caldwell is the only coach in LSU history to claim multiple USA gold medals during her tenure as Lady Tiger head coach. Caldwell has been a part of a championship and winning pedigree at every level of her career. She played, coached and studied under one of the game’s greatest figures, the legendary Pat Summitt at Tennessee and she assisted Women’s Basketball Hall of Famer Debbie Ryan at Virginia. Widely recognized as one of the nation’s top assistant coaches during stints at Tennessee and Virginia, Caldwell took over at UCLA in 2008. In three years with the Bruins, she turned around a UCLA program that had won only one
NCAA Tournament game in the nine years prior to her arrival. Caldwell led the Bruins to a 72-26 (.735) overall mark, reached the NCAA Tournament twice and finished second in the Pac-10 Conference in both 2010 and 2011. She was named the Pac-10 Coach of the Year in 2010 after going 25-9 overall and advancing to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Her best season at UCLA came in 2011 as she led the Bruins to 28 victories, just one shy of the school mark of 29 set back in 1980-81. The Bruins spent the entire 2010-11 season ranked in the top 20 and they claimed the No. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament. UCLA finished the year with just five losses, the fewest in school history during the NCAA era. The 2010-11 season saw UCLA set school records for regular season victories (26), Pac10 wins (16), road victories (10) and scoring defense (55.3 ppg). Caldwell also signed the nation’s third-ranked recruiting class behind only Tennessee and Connecticut according to ESPNHoopGurlz.com, and she helped develop junior post player Jasmine Dixon into an Associated Press Honorable Mention AllAmerican. Caldwell made an immediate impact in her first season as a head coach in 2008-09, directing UCLA to a 19-12 overall record and a fourth-place finish in the Pac-10. In addition, for the first time since the 1986-87 season, the

“Nikki Caldwell is a superstar in our profession. She is the quintessential ‘players’ coach who understands that each player is unique and must be motivated differently to get their maximum effort every night. Nikki has a style and grace that garners immediate attention. She has a great moral compass for the way things ought to be in life. LSU may have hired a coach but they acquired a tremendous person who will achieve greatness beyond the athletic realm.”
- Debbie Ryan, Former Virginia head coach and Hall of Famer
Winning Tradition
It didn’t take Caldwell long to instill a winning attitude at LSU as the Lady Tigers reached the SEC Tournament championship game and NCAA Second Round in her first season. Caldwell became just the second coach in SEC history to guide a team to the SEC Tournament final in her first season.
Bruins won as many as nine non-conference games prior to Pac-10 play. Caldwell and her staff then proceeded to haul in the 14th-ranked recruiting class in the nation according to ESPN HoopGurlz.com, headlined by McDonald’s All-American Markel Walker. The staff added another McDonald’s All-American for 2009-10 in transfer Jasmine Dixon. Her second Bruin team finished with 25 wins, the fourth-most in school history, and advanced to the second round of the 2010 NCAA Tournament. After a mid-January setback in conference play, the Bruins lost only to NCAA runner-up Stanford (twice) and No. 4-ranked Nebraska, both of which who earned NCAA Tournament No. 1 seeds. UCLA won 15 of its last 18 contests of the 2009-10 season en route to the school’s first NCAA Tournament appearance since 2006. The squad won 15 conference games, finished second in the Pac-10 and they limited opponents to then a school-record 55.7 points per game. In five seasons as head coach at both UCLA and LSU, Caldwell owns a 11749 (.705) overall record and a 60-26 (.698) mark in conference play. Caldwell broke into the head coaching ranks after serving as an assistant on Summitt’s staff at Tennessee from 2002-08. During that time, she helped the Lady Vols capture a pair of NCAA titles in 2007 and 2008 and reach the Final Four a total of five times. The Lady Vols compiled an impressive 195-24 mark and won three Southeastern Conference regular season titles during her six years as an assistant coach. Caldwell joined the Tennessee staff for the 2002-03 season and became the recruiting director in the spring of 2003. Her impact was immediate as the Lady Vols signed perhaps the most prolific freshmen class in the history of women’s collegiate basketball in the fall of 2003. That class consisted of six 2004 high school All-Americans, including three players of the year. In 2008, Caldwell helped sign five players who went on to play in the prestigious McDonald’s All-American Game. In 2008, the Lady Vols captured a second straight NCAA championship and finished with a record of 36-2. National Player of the Year Candace Parker, the No. 1 selection in the WNBA draft and the 2008 WNBA MVP, led a group of five Lady Vols to be drafted into the WNBA on the day following the championship.

Tasha Butts Assistant Coach • Third Season
Tasha Butts, a standout player at the University of Tennessee and former WNBA player, begins her third season as an assistant coach at LSU. Butts has served on Nikki Caldwell’s staff the two previous seasons that has seen the Lady Tigers reach back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances, including the program’s first Sweet 16 berth since 2008. In Butts’ second year, LSU won 22 games, claimed 10 Southeastern Conference regular season wins and finished with a No. 21 national ranking in the USA Today Coaches poll, representing LSU’s highest since 2008. Butts worked closely with LSU’s backcourt, including All-SEC guard Adrienne Webb during her junior and senior seasons. Webb led the SEC in free throw shooting and helped lead the Lady Tigers past Penn State in the NCAA Second Round with a career-best 27 points. Butts also worked with AllSEC freshman Danielle Ballard, who shattered the LSU single-season record for steals with 100 in her debut season. Butts and fellow assistant coach Tony Perotti received the prestigious honor of attending the Villa 7 Consortium. The program brings together university athletics directors and the country’s elite assistant coaches in an effort to prepare the next generation of college basketball leaders on Nike’s campus in Oregon. Butts arrived at LSU after three successful seasons as an assistant coach at UCLA. During her tenure with the Bruins, she worked with perimeter players and assisted with all other facets of the program, including academics, recruiting, scouting and player development. UCLA reached the NCAA Tournament twice, compiling a 72-26 overall mark and second-place finishes in the Pac-10 Conference in both 2010 and 2011. The 2010-11 season saw the Bruins earn a No. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament and set records for regular-season victories (26), Pac-10 wins (16) and scoring defense (55.3 points per game). Butts was instrumental in the development of UCLA guards Darxia Morris, Doreena Campbell and Markel Walker. Morris was the Bruins’ top scorer in 2010-11 as she earned first-team All-Pac-10 honors and was invited to training camp with the WNBA’s Tulsa Shock. Butts helped sign Walker, who arrived at UCLA as the nation’s No. 4 ranked high school player according to ESPN HoopGurlz. Campbell became just the fourth Bruin ever to earn All-Pac-10 honors all four years of her career. She was also the fourth player in school history to record 1,000 points, 400 rebounds and 400 assists. Prior to UCLA, Butts served as an assistant coach at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, Pa., for the 2007-08 season where she worked primarily with the perimeter players. Her responsibilities included recruiting, opponent scouting, academics, equipment liaison and scheduling. Butts was a proven winner as a player at Tennessee, helping the Lady Vols to a 124-17 record in her four seasons from 2000-04. Tennessee had a Sweet 16 appearance in her freshman season and advanced to the 2002 Final Four in her sophomore campaign. She then helped the Lady Vols to back-to-back National Championship games in her junior and senior seasons of 2003 and 2004. As a senior, she earned second-team All-Southeastern Conference honors after averaging 10.4 points per game and ranking second in the league in three-point field goal percentage (43.0). In addition, Butts was part of four SEC regular-season championship teams, as Tennessee compiled a 55-1 SEC record in her four years. When she left UT, she ranked fourth in all-time games played (141) and tied for seventh in three-point shots made (103) at the school. Butts’ career-high 37 points against Vanderbilt on Feb. 16, 2004, tied for 11th on the Lady Vols’ singlegame scoring list. Today, her career free throw percentage of 79.3 ranks 10th in UT annals. Butts, 31, graduated from Tennessee in 2004 with a degree in sport management and a minor in business. Butts was chosen by the Minnesota Lynx with the 20th selection in the 2004 WNBA Draft. She saw action in all 30 games as a rookie, helping the club equal a franchise record with 18 wins and earn a spot in the playoffs. Following the 2004 WNBA season, she returned to her alma mater and served as a graduate assistant coach, working primarily with Pat Summitt and Nikki Caldwell. The Lady Vols won the 2005 SEC Championship that season and advanced to the 2005 Final Four.

In the fall 2005, she headed overseas, where she played for Essa/ Barreiro in Portugal, averaging nearly 18.0 points per game. After one season with Essa, she moved on to Raanana Hertizliya in Israel, where she posted 15.5 points per contest. She also had brief stints with the Charlotte Sting and Houston Comets of the WNBA. Butts grew up in Milledgeville, Ga., and attended Baldwin High School where she was a consensus All-American and the Georgia Gatorade State Player of the Year. She remains the all-time leading scorer at the school and her high school jersey No. 23 was retired in December of 2000. In August 2004, the city of Milledgeville honored Butts with a key to the city and a proclamation of achievement on “Tasha Butts Day.” Butts credits her parents, Spencer Butts, Sr. and Evelyn Butts, with instilling the value of hard work and importance of family. She has one older brother, Spencer Butts, Jr.

Angel Elderkin Assistant Coach • Second Season
Angel Elderkin returns to Nikki Caldwell’s LSU coaching staff after spending the 2012-13 season as an assistant coach at St. John’s University. Elderkin, 36, served as director of video operations for the Lady Tigers during Caldwell’s first season of 2011-12. Elderkin brings 14 years of collegiate coaching experience to LSU. In one season at St. John’s, she played a vital role on Joe Tartamella’s staff in helping the Red Storm to a 2013 NCAA Tournament appearance, a third-place finish in the Big East Conference and an 18-13 overall record. The East Providence, R.I., native served as recruiting coordinator while focusing on guard play and opponent scouting. St. John’s produced its first-ever WNBA Draft picks when senior guards Nadirah McKenith (No. 17 overall, Washington Mystics) and Sheneikka Smith (No. 25 overall, New York Liberty) were selected in the April draft during Elderkin’s tenure. Smith and McKenith were both firstteam All-Big East Conference honorees and WBCA Coaches’ Honorable Mention All-America selections, averaging 16.7 and 13.2 points per game, respectively. In 2011-12, Elderkin was part of an LSU staff that re-invigorated the program, guiding the Lady Tigers to the second round of the 2012 NCAA Tournament, the championship game of the Southeastern Conference Tournament and a 23-11 overall record. She helped coordinate opponent scouting. Prior to her coaching stint at LSU, Elderkin spent four seasons as an assistant coach under legendary coach Debbie Ryan at the University of Virginia. Elderkin served as the Cavaliers recruiting coordinator in her final two seasons and she was also responsible for opponent scouting, player development, on-court instruction and practice and game preparation. She was responsible for signing the nation’s 13th-ranked class for 2011 according to ESPN HoopGurlz.com. Virginia reached the NCAA Tournament three times during her tenure, including second round appearances in 2008 and 2009. Elderkin was also instrumental in the development of All-American guard Monica Wright, who was the second overall pick of the 2010 WNBA Draft by the Minnesota Lynx. Wright was the ACC Player of the Year and the National Defensive Player of the Year as a senior. She capped her career as the school’s all-time leading scorer with 2,540 points. Elderkin came to Virginia after spending two seasons at Tennessee, including the Lady Vols’ run to the 2007 NCAA Championship. That year, she worked as the team’s video coordinator, handling all aspects of film and video. She also prepared postgame reports for staff and players, coordinated recruiting visits and assisted in marketing of Tennessee’s team camp. Before arriving in Knoxville, Elderkin spent four years as an assistant coach at Siena College from 2002-05. She was an integral part of recruiting some of the best classes in program history. Elderkin also spent two seasons at East Tennessee State where she served as a special assistant to the head coach. Elderkin began her basketball coaching career at Virginia as the assistant camp coordinator during the summer of 2000. Elderkin spent her playing days as a guard at Southern Maine, lettering four seasons for the Huskies. She led Southern Maine to three Little East Conference championships and an astounding 104-15 overall record. The Huskies reached the Division III NCAA Tournament during each of her four years, and in 1998, Southern Maine was the national runner-up. Elderkin also played on the softball team from 1996-98.

Perotti, who works with the Lady Tigers’ post players, has played a vital role in lifting the LSU program back to national prominence with back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances. The Lady Tigers reached the Sweet 16 for the first time since 2008 in his second season, and he helped develop Theresa Plaisance into a first-team All-Southeastern Conference selection.

Barrett concluded her career as the 11th all-time leading scorer in LSU history while shattering Sylvia Fowles’ career free throw record. In the summer 2012, Perotti and fellow assistant coach Tasha Butts received the prestigious honor of attending the Villa 7 Consortium, a program which brings together university athletics directors and the country’s elite assistant coaches in an effort to prepare the next generation of college basketball leaders. The two-day program was held on the Nike campus in Oregon. Perotti helped guide UCLA to national prominence in his three seasons, which included two NCAA Tournament appearances and a 72-26 overall record. UCLA made drastic improvements in every season. In 2008-09, the Bruins compiled a 19-12 record and finished fourth in the Pac-10 Conference. The following year, Perotti and UCLA went 25-9 overall and reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament. The 2010-11 season saw Perotti and the Bruins enjoy a banner year. UCLA spent most of the season ranked in the top 10 and they earned a No. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament after finishing with a 28-5 record and a second-place finish in the Pac10. The Bruins set a record for regular-season victories (26), Pac-10 wins (16) and scoring defense (55.3 points per game).

Guard Sade Cunningham set a school record for single-season and career assists. In 2006-07, NAU led the conference in field goal percentage, scoring defense and assists per game. In his first season as an assistant, Perotti not only helped the team to a 19-10 record and third-place conference finish, but took over as head coach for three games (2-1) at the end of the season when the head coach was home with a newborn baby. Perotti officially joined the collegiate coaching ranks as an assistant for five seasons at the University of San Francisco. He was the team’s top assistant from 2000-04 and worked as the third assistant in his first season. He also served as the program’s recruiting coordinator in 2000 and 2002-03. During that period, Perotti helped to successfully sign two Junior College All-Americans, three West Coast Conference Freshmen of the Year, as well as international players from Germany and Denmark. On the court, he worked primarily with the perimeter players and assisted in team offensive and defensive philosophy development and strategies. He also served as summer camp director and completed his master’s degree (2001) in sports and fitness management. Before his time at USF, Perotti worked as an office assistant and summer camp coach at the University of Tennessee. He also served as a practice player for two seasons with the Lady Vols.

2012-13 Season Review
EIGHT WAS ENOUGH
Minutes after LSU’s heartbreaking, buzzer-beating loss to rival Tennessee in the Maravich Center on Feb. 7, junior guard Jeanne Kenney poured her heart and soul into a riveting speech in the locker room.
With LSU having lost three of its last four games and sitting at 4-6 in Southeastern Conference play, Kenney exclaimed “Our seniors aren’t going to go out like this. They deserve to be playing on their home floor in March and they will.” It was a rallying cry for a group of nine players at the time. Under the guidance of second-year head coach Nikki Caldwell, her staff and those nine committed players, the Lady Tigers put together a late-season surge that will be remembered as one of the greatest finishes in school history. Losing five seniors the previous year and faced with tremendous adversity to injuries and a brutal schedule, it could have been easy and understandable for LSU to go .500 the rest of the way. But that’s not Caldwell, her staff and her team. There’s competitiveness – no matter what the odds might be – that drives her and her players every day they take the floor. She expects greatness from them and that is what she got as LSU went on a seven-game winning streak, reached the NCAA Tournament and then its first Sweet 16 since 2008. Playing its third top-15 ranked team in eight days, the streak began against No. 9 Georgia just 48 hours after the heartbreaking loss to the Lady Vols. The Lady Tigers dominated the Lady Bulldogs, 71-53, proving the Tennessee loss was behind them. Following its second win in a row at Mississippi State, LSU was faced with more adversity when it learned that sophomore forward Sheila Boykin was diagnosed with Guillain-Barre syndrome. She missed the remainder of the season. Would eight players be enough to play in March? The team developed the motto “Eight is Enough,” and it was said every time they took the floor, came out of a timeout or a session in practice. Snowed in at Columbia, Mo., LSU played a road game at Missouri on a Friday afternoon, defeated the Tigers then faced the daunting task of beating an up-tempo Kentucky team in less than 48 hours in Baton Rouge. Kenney, grieving after the loss of her late grandfather just days before and questionable to play with a foot injury, left the Maravich Center faithful with a memory they wouldn’t soon forget. Kenney fired in a career-high 22 points, buried 5-of-5 threes and LSU beat a Kentucky team 77-72 that blasted Texas A&M in College Station six days prior. Kentucky got nearly a week of rest prior to that game, while a shorthanded LSU team had played that Friday. Again, Caldwell kept her team
focused no matter what the adversity that was dealt to them. On March 3, the group of eight took the program to another level, dominating No. 14 Texas A&M in College Station for its first win on the road over a ranked SEC team since upsetting No. 1 Tennessee in Knoxville in 2008. All eight players contributed in the inspiring win. Seniors Adrienne Webb and Bianca Lutley were playing at the highest levels of their careers. Following an NCAA first round win over Green Bay where the Lady Tigers snapped the Phoenix’ 24-game winning streak, LSU learned it was going to be without the services of Kenney against a Penn State team in the second round that ended the team’s season last year. National media did not give the Lady Tigers a chance against a balanced Lady Lion team led by Big Ten Player of the Year Maggie Lucas. It was the perfect scenario for Caldwell and LSU -- backs against the wall, playing without its leader in Kenney and a Penn State team confident it would end LSU’s season again. Caldwell took the “magnificent seven” to another level and what resulted was one of the greatest victories in school history. Webb and Lutley, playing their final home games, combined for 47 points as LSU celebrated its 13th all-time Sweet 16 appearance with a thrilling 71-66 win over Penn State. This was the kind of scene you envisioned when Caldwell made her introductory speech in April 2011 – an LSU team celebrating at midcourt and a raucous crowd in pandemonium after a signature victory. As LSU left the floor, including Webb for the final time, she found Kenney in the tunnel who couldn’t stay away from the Maravich Center. “We did it,” Webb exclaimed. Caldwell, trying to catch her breath in the locker room, then told the team “oh my goodness, I am so proud of you. We have come a long, long way. We could have folded, but you didn’t because you believed.” Though LSU would see its season end in the regional semifinal to Cal days later, the indelible images of that night in the Maravich Center and a season once at a crossroads in early February will not soon be forgotten. For the fans, it was a celebration that let out previous years of frustration wondering if their team would be relevant again. For a team that had gone through so much, eight was enough to create memories that would last a lifetime. Every single player on the roster had improved their game from the previous year. Caldwell and her staff did a fantastic job in making them believe in each other as they became a tight-knit group poised for a magical March. Webb and Lutley finished with the best season of their careers. The momentum has been established for an off-season of an excitement. Just two years removed from missing the NCAA Tournament for the first time in 12 seasons, Caldwell has LSU back on the map nationally. It’s just like she envisioned in her introductory press conference.

NCAA First Round • Spokane Region • Baton Rouge, La. • March 24, 2013
LSU Survives Second-Half Rally To Edge Green Bay in NCAA First Round, 75-71 Theresa Plaisance led a quartet of double-figure scorers with 16 points and the sixth-seeded LSU Lady Tigers survived a late comeback attempt from 11th-seeded Green Bay to snap the Phoenix’ 24-game winning streak by a score of 75-71 in the first round of the NCAA Tournament in the Pete Maravich Assembly Center. LSU led by as many as 18 points midway through the second half and put together an 8-0 run to start the period after leading 32-27 at the break. Senior guard Adrienne Webb keyed the spurt with two clutch threes. Webb finished with four threes and 15 points. Fellow senior Bianca Lutley chipped in 13 points and freshman Danielle Ballard notched 16 points, six assists and two steals. Ballard shattered the LSU single-season record for steals, breaking Marie Ferdinand’s mark of 93. Ballard entered the contest tied for the milestone and now has 95 threes in what has been an incredible freshman season for the Memphis native. Plaisance was 6-of-10 from the floor, recording her 31st consecutive double-figure scoring game. Green Bay, ranked 20th in both the Associated Press and Coaches’ polls, concluded its season with a brilliant 29-3 record. Sunday’s loss was the Phoenix’ first since Dec. 5 at Central Michigan. They would not end their season without a fight, nearly recovering from an 18-point deficit and slicing the contest to one possession in the final 10 seconds. Green Bay’s Sarah Eichler led all scorers with 22 points and four threes. Adrian Ritchie had 16
points as the Phoenix finished 12-of-28 from beyond three-point range. Eichler hit a three at the 5:06 mark to cut it to 65-61, but Lutley answered with a clutch three from the left wing for LSU. Eichler fired in another trey that cut the Lady Tiger lead to 71-66 with 2:14 to play. Ballard made one of two free throws on the other end and Megan Lukan’s three turned it into a one-possession game with 0:49 to go. Plaisance was fouled with 0:15 on the clock and she calmly knocked two free throws to give the Lady Tigers a 74-69 advantage. Lukan’s layup quickly cut it to three again, but Ballard iced the game with a free throw with 0:04 to go. Both teams shot an identical 49.1 percent. LSU drained a season-best 9-of-14 from beyond the arc and converted 22 points off 15 Green Bay turnovers. LSU junior guard Jeanne Kenney collided with Adrienne Webb late in the game and was carried off the floor after suffering a head injury. 1 2 T #11 seed Green Bay 27 44 71 #6 seed LSU 32 43 75 LSU Leaders Scoring: Theresa Plaisance Adrienne Webb Rebounds: Theresa Plaisance Shanece McKinney Assists: Jeanne Kenney Danielle Ballard

Seventh Heaven: Short-Handed LSU Reaches Sweet 16 With 71-66 Win Over Penn State
Late Run Lifts No. 2 Seed California Past LSU in NCAA Regional Semifinal, 73-63
Senior guard Adrienne Webb scored a career-high 29 points in her final home game to lead a short-handed LSU team to its first Sweet 16 since 2008 with a thrilling 71-66 win over eighthranked Penn State in front of a raucous 3,055 fans on Tuesday night in the Maravich Center. In one of the greatest team performances in Lady Tiger history, an active roster of seven players eliminated a Penn State team (26-6) who defeated LSU on this same floor a year ago and did it while recovering from a once nine-point deficit. The Lady Tigers were without the services of junior guard and leader Jeanne Kenney, who suffered a head injury in the final seconds of the first round win over Green Bay. “Seventh heaven,” said LSU head coach Nikki Caldwell as she opened her press conference. “I was really proud of our team and what they did tonight without one of our leaders in Jeanne Kenney. It was just a courageous effort by these seven young ladies and coming away with a great win against a very, very tough Penn State.” Seniors Webb, Bianca Lutley and her teammates played inspired in her absence. The two combined for 47 points in their final Maravich Center game. Webb fired in 10-of-16 from the floor, swished a go-ahead three in the final three minutes and sealed the game with three free throws in the final 21 seconds. “We did not want our last game to be played with seven players,” said Webb. “All seven of us got together and really came together and played for our fans which were out there and everyone who had supported us. We also played for Jeanne because for me Jeanne has really been a leader for us. That was my motivation at the beginning of the game that I wanted to play this game and have Jeanne Kenney out on the floor with me.” After Penn State regained the lead on an Ariel Edwards jumper, Lutley worked her way into the paint and scored, giving LSU the lead for good, 67-66, with 0:40 on the clock. The Lady Lions’ Alex Bentley, who scored 16 points, missed a jumper on the other end. Webb then followed with two free throws and Lutley accounted for a free throw that put the game out of reach. Lutley finished with 18 points and six assists. She and Webb combined to score nine of LSU’s last 11 points. Junior forward Shanece McKinney had a clutch putback late and scored eight points. LSU recovered from a 42-35 halftime deficit by the inspired play of Webb, who drained her first five shots of the second stanza. The Lady Tigers opened the half with a 10-0 run as Webb couldn’t miss from the baseline. LSU shot 46.6 percent from the floor and got contributions from all seven players on the active roster. The Lady Tigers also converted 15 Penn State turnovers into 24 points. As the final horn sounded, LSU players surrounded midcourt and a raucous celebration ensued. Webb and Lutley left the Maravich Center floor for the final time in a way you could not have scripted any better. “I could see our team really taking in the atmosphere here, and it was a great atmosphere, especially for our seniors knowing that this is their last game at home,” said Caldwell. “We just appreciate the fans who have stayed the course with us and who continue to believe in us when things looked a little bleak. This was an unbelievable crowd.” 1 2 T #6 seed LSU 35 36 71 #3 seed Penn State 42 24 66
No. 2 seed California separated a close game in the second half with a 12-1 run and got a game-high 19 points from Layshia Clarendon as the sixth-seeded LSU women’s basketball team saw its NCAA Tournament run come to an end in the Spokane regional semifinal by a score of 73-63 on March 31 in Spokane Arena. The Lady Tigers concluded a magnificent season with a 22-12 record. Despite a roster of only eight players down the stretch, LSU advanced to its first Sweet 16 since 2008 and more importantly brought the program back to national prominence. “I’m extremely proud of this team,” said LSU head coach Nikki Caldwell. “We have battled and we have hit adversity and we have been challenged. These young ladies came together and decided to fight, fight for one another and they put LSU back on the map as a dominant program.” California (31-3) advanced to its first Elite Eight and then eventually beat No. 4 seed Georgia to advance to the Final Four in New Orleans. Senior guard Adrienne Webb concluded a brilliant career with 15 points in her final game. Webb finished as the 17th all-time leading scorer in LSU history with 1,370 points and she went down fifth in LSU career threes with 168. “It stings, but I have had one great career at LSU,” said Webb. “We have really fought through everything, through injuries and through numbers. We have really dug deep and believed in each other and pulled through. I really couldn’t ask for a better group of players and coaches to have for this last senior season.” “She’s left her mark on this program,” added Caldwell. “She definitely has been a player that has represented the purple and gold not only on the basketball court but within the community and classroom. You couldn’t ask for a better student-athlete to be a part of your program than Adrienne Webb.” Junior forward Theresa Plaisance registered her eighth double-double of the year with 15 points and 12 rebounds. Meanwhile Bianca Lutley grabbed eight rebounds to go along with five points in her final game. Freshman Danielle Ballard added 14 points. With her early steal in the first half, Ballard became the first LSU basketball player – men or women – to record 100 steals in a season. With the game tied at 38 apiece and 12:32 to play, Clarendon buried a tough running jumper. Ballard answered with a layup in transition but Mikayla Miles fired in a three from the corner as the shot clock expired. Ballard’s layup cut it to 48-43 but the Lady Tigers then missed nine consecutive shots from the floor, going scoreless from the field for six minutes. Cal capitalized on the LSU drought at the free throw line, burying 26-of-41 for the game to LSU’s 10-of-13. The Golden Bears also did a great job in transition off 16 LSU turnovers that resulted in 21 points. LSU ended up out-shooting Cal 38.8 percent to 37.9 percent. Gennifer Brandon finished with 17 points and a game-high 13 boards for the Bears. Saturday’s meeting was just the second between the two teams and the first since 1981. The Lady Tigers saw a seven-game winning streak to Pac-12 teams come to an end and also a sevengame winning streak in regional finals snap. 1 2 T #6 seed LSU 26 37 63 #2 seed California 26 47 73

HISTORY
Hall of Famer Sue Gunter
Sue Gunter
40 Seasons • 708 Wins • Basketball Hall of Famer The late Sue Gunter, a 2005 inductee into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, will always be remembered as not only one of the greatest coaches in women’s basketball history, but also as a pioneer in the game. Gunter passed away on Aug. 4, 2005. Gunter, who became the third women’s coach in history to reach 700 career victories with a win over Arkansas on Feb. 12, 2004, was with women’s basketball on the collegiate level every step of the way and saw the sport evolve from a novelty back in the early 1960s to present day, where the Final Four is sold out years in advance and games are shown nightly on national television. Gunter, who was inducted into the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame in June 2000, completed her career among the leaders in several NCAA coaching categories: seasons coached (No. 1 - 40); games coached (No. 3 1,016); wins (No. 3 - 708); and 20-win seasons (No. 4 - 22). Gunter’s influence was a catalyst behind the growth of the game and things were no different in Baton Rouge as the Lady Tigers continue to play before school-record crowds and media attention is at an all-time high. In Gunter’s 22-year tenure at LSU, her list of accomplishments are long and impressive -- 14 NCAA Tournament appearances, one trip to the Final Four, four NCAA Elite Eight appearances, eight NCAA Sweet 16 appearances, two SEC Tournament titles, a Women’s NIT title, and a handful of Coach of the Year awards. Gunter added one final accolade to her historic career when she was inducted into the LSU Athletic Hall of Fame on April 24, 2010.
Sue Gunter – The Coach Sue Gunter brought the LSU women’s basketball program back to national prominence. After a three-year hiatus in the mid-1990’s that saw the Lady Tigers suffer through the school’s first-ever losing seasons, LSU returned to the post-season, and in Gunter’s final year as head coach in 2003-04, advanced to the program’s first NCAA Final Four. To realize just how far the Lady Tigers have come, one has to go back to the 1994-95 season, the worst year in school history as LSU posted a 7-20 overall mark. Strangely enough, it was the 1994-95 season that proved to be the turning point for the Lady Tigers as Gunter turned up her recruiting magic and promptly signed the best class in school history. That class, which included future All-SEC selections in Elaine Powell, Pietra Gay and Toni Gross, won 46 games over two years and resurrected the LSU women’s basketball program. The Lady Tigers won an average of 22.5 games per season under Gunter since the 1994-95 campaign, including a then-school record 30 wins in 2002-03. Her final season was undoubtedly one of Gunter’s finest on the court, despite not being on the bench for over half the season due to illness. The Lady Tigers won 27 games, finished second in the SEC with a 10-4 mark, received a No. 4 seed in the NCAA Tournament’s West Region and advanced past Austin Peay, Maryland, No. 1 seed Texas and Georgia to reach the program’s first Final Four right down the road in New Orleans. Gunter coached in her 1,000 game on Jan. 25, 2004 and recorded her 700th career victory later in the season against Arkansas. Sophomore Seimone Augustus earned Kodak All-American honors and was the Louisiana Player of the Year. Gunter completed her career as the third winningest women’s basketball coach in history with an overall record of 708-308, which included coaching stints at Middle Tennessee, Stephen F. Austin and LSU. Gunter’s LSU record was 442-221, which makes her the winningest coach in school history. Under the direction of Gunter, the Lady Tigers played in 14 NCAA Tournaments, one National Women’s Invitational Tournament and two WNIT events. Gunter led LSU to one Final Four in 2004, and to the Elite Eight in 1986, 2000 and 2003, while leading the Lady Tigers to a championship at the National Women’s Invitational Tournament in 1985. In addition, Gunter directed LSU to 14 20-plus-win seasons, including one 30-win season.

What They Said About Coach Gunter
“Sue Gunter was a wonderful friend, an exceptional person and an incredibly talented basketball coach. Sue was definitely one of the pioneers of women’s collegiate basketball. She was one of my mentors. I learned so much from Sue about the X’s and O’s of the game of basketball. But more importantly, she taught me about the delicate balance of coaching and teaching the game and the value of great player-coach relationships. She made playing basketball fun due to her ability to connect with her players. Personally, I am going to miss her tremendously and I know the game is going to miss her.” - Pat Summitt, Tennessee head coach “I loved her. There was always a lot of respect, not just as a coach, but in life. She was an unbelievable friend and sister. I will always cherish what we had. And she was a hell of a coach.” - Ann Meyers “When I got the call from my agent and he told me that LSU was interested in me, the first thing I thought about was Sue Gunter. She came to mind right off the bat. Having played in the SEC and having played against those old Sue Gunter teams back in the 90s, I was just moved because she has meant so much to a lot of us, our career, and our choices to go into college coaching because of what she has done for women’s basketball.” - Nikki Caldwell, LSU head coach at her introductory press conference on April 4, 2011
“A person you absoloutely loved. There was not a person I respected more than Sue Gunter. Not only did we lose a great coach, but we lost an even better person.” - Van Chancellor, former LSU head coach and Hall of Famer “When you look at Sue’s record and all the accomplishments throughout her career, it’s easy to say that we have lost a great coach. But, in reality we have lost a better person.” - Jim Foster, Ohio State head coach “A lot of the things you see today in the game of women’s basketball are due to a large price earlier paid by people such as Sue Gunter. I had the utmost respect for her as a person and as a coach. She will really be missed in our game. Her achievements and legacy will far exceed her wins and losses, even though they were very impressive in her case.” - Marsha Sharp, former Texas Tech head coach “Personally I felt like I lost my best friend. Basketball lost one of its heroes. She is legendary. The things that she has done and the way she did them are just remarkable.” - Andy Landers, Georgia head coach “Just sadness … that was my first thought. At the same time it made me relive the times I spent with Sue Gunter on the recruiting trail. Those were good times. The coaching profession has lost a great one today. No question she is one of the pioneers. She’s a legend in the women’s game.” - Kim Mulkey, Baylor head coach
“I am very saddened today. Sue’s passing is a great loss for our sport and a personal loss of a close friend. My thoughts are with Sue’s family and those at LSU at this sad time.” - Jody Conradt, former Texas head coach “To me, the first thing that comes to mind is character. That’s what she instilled in us. It was not just always about basketball. It was about us being individual women in the world today. Basketball was definitely a luxury, so I was honored to have the opportunity to play for her, get to know her, and spend as much time as possible with her.” - Temeka Johnson, LSU point guard (2002-05) “It was about two things when we stepped out on the floor - winning and playing for our coach. We loved and respected her to the highest level. Even a few years after her death and today, if something wonderful happens in my life, she is one of the first people who come to mind that I would love to talk to. A part of her continues to live in me.” - Cornelia Gayden, LSU guard (1992-95) “For her to be inducted into the LSU (Athletic) Hall of Fame, it is a tremendous way to maintain her legacy and educate more people today on her accomplishments of the past. If Coach Gunter were here today, I think she would be proud of making it to the Hall of Fame but more so because she would look at it as a program honor.” - Bob Starkey, former LSU associate head coach and Gunter assistant
“Dream big, work hard.” Prior to her arrival in Baton Rouge, Gunter had a very successful coaching stint at Stephen F. Austin in Nacogdoches, Texas. While at SFA, Gunter built that program into a national powerhouse as she led the LadyJacks to a 266-87 mark in 12 years as head coach. In addition, she led Stephen F. Austin to four top 10 national rankings, which included No. 5 final rankings in 1979 and 1980. While at Stephen F. Austin, Gunter coached four sports - women’s basketball, softball, tennis and track. Her basketball teams went to five Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) playoffs, won four state titles and earned a regional crown. After 16 seasons at SFA, she relinquished the reigns and moved into the position of Director of Women’s Athletics where she served two years before returning to the coaching ranks at LSU. Gunter began her coaching career at Middle Tennessee State where she led the Blue Raiders to undefeated seasons in both of her years there.

The First Lady Tiger Team To Reach NCAA Final Four
2005
2006
Lady Tigers Make it Back-to-Back Trips
Three Straight Final Four Appearances for the Lady Tigers
Four Final Fours in as many seasons for the Lady Tigers
With head coach Sue Gunter sitting out the last half of the season due to illness, acting head coach Pokey Chatman led the Lady Tigers to the program’s first trip to the NCAA Final Four and ironically enough, it was just down to the road in New Orleans. The Lady Tigers road to the Final Four begin at home in the Pete Maravich Assembly Center with victories over Austin Peay in the first round and Maryland in the second round. A 83-66 win over Austin Peay was sparked by a 21-point performance by all-American Seimone Augustus, while the Baton Rouge native poured in 26 in the 76-61 win over Maryland two nights later. The fourth-seeded Lady Tigers now had a date with top seeded Texas in the West Regional semifinal in Seattle, Wash. LSU was looking for revenge from the year before when Texas had knocked off the top-seeded Lady Tigers in the regional final. Revenge is just what LSU got with a 71-55 victory over the Longhorns led by Augustus’ career-high 29 points. SEC foe Georgia would be the opponent in the regional final. It would prove to be one of best NCAA Tournament games in history with the lead going back and forth until Georgia took a seven point lead with six minutes to play. LSU did not falter, chipping away at the lead using a 8-1 run in the final four minutes to take the lead and hold it for a 62-60 victory and the program’s first trip to the NCAA Final Four. Augustus matched her career-high with 29 points, including a late free throw, while Temeka Johnson added 19 points, including a 15-foot jumper that gave the Lady Tigers the lead for good. Augustus was named the West Regional Most Outstanding Player and Johnson joined her on the West Regional All-Tournament team. LSU had a date with rival and SEC foe Tennessee in the national semifinal game in the New Orleans Arena, just 70 miles from the Baton Rouge campus. The Lady Vols ended LSU’s magical run, 52-50, with a dramatic late steal and lay-up for Tennessee. LSU ended the season with a 27-8 overall record and a run to the Final Four, the school’s first.
After not advancing to the NCAA Final Four in the history of the program, the LSU Lady Tigers made it two straight trips with a visit in 2005. First year head coach Pokey Chatman, who had guided LSU to the Final Four in her hometown of New Orleans as acting head coach in 2004, led the Lady Tigers back to the promise land. Chatman and the Lady Tigers enjoyed one of the best seasons in school history, posting 33-3 overall record and claiming the program’s first Southeastern Conference regular season title with a perfect 14-0 mark. The first stop for the Lady Tigers was Knoxville, Tenn., where No. 16 Stetson awaited. LSU took care of business in convincing fashion, posting a 70-36 victory. National Player of the Year Seimone Augustus scored 14 points, while National Point Guard of the Year Temeka Johnson had 15 points and seven assists. No. 9 seed Arizona was the next victim as LSU advanced to the Sweet 16. The Lady Tigers continued its domination on defense in a 76-43 victory. For the second straight game the opposition shot below 30.0 percent from the floor. Augustus led the way with 18 points and eight rebounds, while Johnson added 14 points and 10 rebounds. Upset-minded Liberty, the No. 13 seed, awaited LSU in Chattanooga for the Regional Semifinal. Defense again dominated the story line as the Lady Tigers defeated the Flames 90-48. Augustus and Scholanda Hoston had 22 points, while Johnson added 12 points and 15 assists. The Duke Blue Devils, the No. 2 seed, now stood between LSU and a return trip to the Final Four. Duke jumped out to an early led and led for all but a few seconds of the first half until LSU battled back to tie the score at 30-30 just before halftime. The Lady Tigers took control in the second half and held on for a 59-49 victory, earning them a trip to Indianapolis and a date with Baylor. The RCA Dome was the site of the battle between the Lady Bears and the Lady Tigers in the National Semifinal. LSU jumped out to an early 15-point lead only to have Baylor chip back and eventually tie the score 28-28 at the break. Unlike the Regional Final victory over Duke, this time Baylor, the eventual national champions, took control in the second half and pulled away with a 68-57 victory.
After reaching the Final Four in 2004 and 2005, LSU would settle for nothing less than a return trip to the grandest spectacle in women’s basketball. Second-year head coach Pokey Chatman guided the Lady Tigers to a 31-4 overall record, including the program’s second-straight Southeastern Conference regular season title with a 13-1 mark. LSU took its momentum from the regular season and rode it to a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament for the second-straight season and the third time in four years. The Lady Tigers were placed in the San Antonio Region and made the first stop in Nashville, Tenn., for the first- and second-round games. No. 16 seed Florida Atlantic awaited LSU at Vanderbilt’s Memorial Gymnasium. The Lady Tigers used a 20-0 run midway through the first half and pull away with a 72-48 victory to advance to the second round to face No. 9 seed Washington. Washington was, in fact, playing so well that they led LSU, 26-23, at the end of the first half. The lead would not last long as the Lady Tigers shot out on a 12-2 run to open the half and never looked back to earn a 72-49 victory and a trip to the “Sweet 16” in San Antonio. Fourth-seeded DePaul was next for LSU. The Blue Demons gave it a good fight in the opening 20 minutes and found themselves deadlocked at 31-31 with the Lady Tigers at the break. Another Lady Tigers’ run to open the second half and LSU pulled way from DePaul for a 66-56 victory. No. 3 seed Stanford upset second-seeded Oklahoma in the other regional semifinal to set up an LSU-Stanford showdown for the right to advance to Boston. The Cardinal took a 55-54 lead with four minutes left in the game before LSU posted six straight points to hold a 60-55 advantage with 2:07 remaining. Just over a minute later, Stanford’s Candice Wiggins nailed a three-pointer to cut the lead to 60-59, but Seimone Augustus hit a couple of free throws and drew a charging foul on the defensive end to seal a 62-59 victory for LSU. Augustus earned regional Most Outstanding Player honors after posting 18 points against DePaul and 26 in the win over Stanford. In Boston, Duke, the No. 1 seed from the Bridgeport Region, controlled the game from the start and handed LSU a 64-45 loss in the National Semifinal game in the TD Banknorth Garden.
Acting head coach Bob Starkey was faced with the daunting task of guiding LSU Lady Tigers into the 2007 NCAA Tournament after closing out the regular season with three losses in the final five games, but guide he did. After a nice run in the Southeastern Conference Tournament and a loss to Vanderbilt in the title game, LSU received a No. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament and were placed in the Fresno Regional The road to Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena would begin in Austin, Texas at the University of Texas’ Erwin Center. LSU made quick work of the Bulldogs with a 77-39 victory. Quianna Chaney and RaShonta LeBlanc carried LSU with 15 points each and combined to hit nine three-pointers in the game. Up next was upset-minded West Virginia, the No. 11 seed. LSU had to rally from 11 points down in the final 12 minutes of play to secure a 49-43 victory. Fowles led the way with 21 points and 13 rebounds, while Chaney added 11 points. The come-from-behind victory over WVU advanced LSU into the Sweet 16 and a trip to Fresno, Calif., and a date with No. 10 seed Florida State at Fresno State’s Save Mart Center. The Lady Tigers had little trouble with Florida State in a 55-43 victory. LSU led the entire game and held a 27-18 lead at halftime before breaking it open with a 10-0 to open the second half. Chaney led LSU with 22 points and Fowles added 20 points and nine rebounds. In the Elite Eight, The Lady Tigers would face top-seeded Connecticut with a chance to avenge an earlier one-point loss at home. LSU did just that and did it in convincing fashion with a 73-50 win over the Huskies in the Fresno Regional Final. Fowles continued her dominance in the tournament with 23 points, 15 rebounds and six blocked shot on her way to being named Regional Most Outstanding Player. Allison Hightower and Ashley Thomas added 12 points each and White posted 11 points in the victory. A disappointing outing versus Greensboro Regional Champion Rutgers in the national semifinal in Cleveland ended LSU’s season, but the Lady Tigers could not hang their heads after a 30-8 season, the program’s third straight 30-win season.
LSU joined Connecticut as the only team in NCAA women’s basketball history to advance to five straight Final Fours as first-year LSU head coach Van Chancellor led the Lady Tigers to a 31-6 overall record and a perfect 14-0 Southeastern Conference mark. Going into the season, the squad knew the Pete Maravich Assembly Center would be a host site for the NCAA First and Second Rounds. LSU earned a No. 2 seed in the New Orleans Regional and awaited Jackson State in the first round from the friendly confines of the Maravich Center. What resulted was one of the most dominating performances in school history and a 66-32 victory over the 15th seed. Sylvia Fowles led all scorers with 16 points, and Jackson State’s 32 total points were the fewest allowed by LSU in its NCAA Tournament history.
Two days later, the Lady Tigers tangled with a ranked Marist team, the No. 7 seed. The Red Foxes were no match for home standing LSU, who snapped Marist’s 22-game winning streak with a 68-49 win. Fowles became the SEC’s all-time leading rebounder with 13 boards while adding 19 points. LSU’s eight seniors also received a standing ovation in their final home game. In the Sweet 16, another home atmosphere awaited at the New Orleans Arena as the Lady Tigers used a 15-0 run to top third-seeded Oklahoma State, 67-52. Erica White scored a team-high 18 points on 5-of-11 shooting. All that stood between LSU and a fifth straight Final Four appearance was a battle with top-seeded and No. 1-ranked North Carolina. Fowles scored 21 points and grabbed 12 rebounds to lead her senior class to victory,
56-50. The senior earned New Orleans Regional Most Outstanding Player honors. Guard RaShonta LeBlanc hit the most important shot of the game, a three pointer from the right wing with 4:30 to play that put LSU ahead by seven, 44-37, with 4:30 left. In Tampa at the NCAA Final Four, LSU suffered a heartbreaking loss to Tennessee, 47-46. UT’s Alexis Hornbuckle rebounded a missed shot and dropped in a layup with 0.7 seconds left to play to bail the Lady Vols out after LSU’s Erica White hit two free throws with seven seconds to play. Fowles closed a brilliant career with 24 points, 20 rebounds and five blocked shots.

1976-77 The Only Lady Tigers to Reach the National Championship Game of a Postseason Tournament With one of the most dominating forward-center combinations in LSU women’s basketball history in Australians Julie Gross and Maree Jackson, the Lady Tigers enjoyed one of their finest seasons in 1976-77. The Lady Tigers, behind the play of Gross and Jackson, started the season off slow, but ended its regular-season with a 21-5 mark. The Lady Tigers then headed to the AIAW State Tournament in Ruston. LSU easily handled New Orleans in the first round, winning 85-58, followed by a 73-51 victory over Southern. Louisiana Tech stopped LSU in the semifinals as the Techsters posted a 101-88 win over LSU. The Lady Tigers then fell to Northwestern State, 87-82, but the Lady Tigers still managed to finish in second place at the state tournament. By virtue of its second place finish at the state tournament, LSU advanced to the AIAW Regional Tournament in Monroe. At the regional tournament, the Lady Tigers got on a roll as they whipped Texas, 95-67, in the first round followed by a 76-73 win over a Sue Guntercoached Stephen F. Austin team in the semifinals. LSU beat Baylor, 92-76, in the championship game to advance to the AIAW National Tournament in Minneapolis, Minn. At the AIAW National Tournament, the Lady Tigers drew Western Washington in the first round and had little trouble as the Lady Tigers, behind 40 points from Maree Jackson, raced out to 49-26 halftime lead and never looked back in their 91-53 win. Next up for the Lady Tigers was Baylor, a team that LSU had already beat twice during the season, which included a victory

over the Bears in the regional finals. LSU was once again victorious over Baylor as the Lady Tigers got 35 points and 26 rebounds from Maree Jackson advanced with a 71-64 win. The Lady Tigers then moved into the semifinal round against Immaculata, a powerhouse in women’s basketball at the time. Immaculata was ranked No. 2 in the nation and was considered a huge favorite in
2 0 1 3 - 1 4 w o m e n ’ s b a s k e t b a l l ME D I A G U I D E
the contest with the Lady Tigers. The Lady Tigers upset Immaculata, 74-68, despite the fact that Jackson played after having root canal surgery and Brenda McGuffie played with a severely sprained ankle. In addition, Jackson and McGuffie played the final 10 minutes of the contest with four fouls. Jackson finished with 29 points and 19 rebounds, while Gross had 23 points and 11 boards. It was on to the national championship game for LSU as the 11th-ranked Lady Tigers would face topranked Delta State for the title. Delta State scored the first six points of the contest and the Delta Devils quickly built a nine point advantage, 13-4, on a jumper by Debbie Brock at the 15:14 mark. LSU could get no closer than seven points the rest of the way as Lady Tiger All-American Jackson picked up her third foul with 5:54 to play in the first half. Delta State led 34-25 at intermission. In the second half, Delta State never let the Lady Tigers back in the contest as the Delta Devils held Jackson to a career-low six points in posting a 68-55 victory. Lucy Harris, the best women’s player in the country at the time, led Delta State with 23 points and 16 rebounds. The Lady Tigers finished the year with an overall record of 29-8 and ranked No. 11 in the nation. That team still holds the distinction of being the only Lady Tiger team ever to reach the national championship game of a post-season tournament.

2012-13 OVERALL RECORD: 22-12 With a roster stricken by injuries and down to eight players, LSU developed the motto “Eight is Enough” and went on a six-game winning streak with victories over No. 4 Kentucky and a convincing 67-52 victory at No. 14 Texas A&M to close the regular season. Junior forward Theresa Plaisance became the first LSU player to lead the SEC in scoring since Seimone Augustus. The Lady Tigers beat No. 20 Green Bay on their home floor in the first round and then pulled off one of the most remarkable victories in school history to reach the Sweet 16. Without its spirited leader in Jeanne Kenney, who sustained an injury, LSU -- with a roster of seven players -- knocked off No. 8 Penn State 71-66 before a raucous crowd in the Maravich Center to reach the Sweet 16 for the first time since 2008. The Lady Tigers saw their season come to an end in the Spokane regional semifinal with a 73-63 loss to eventual Final Four participant California. No. Name

HISTORY
SEC Championships
2007-08
SEC Champions In 2007-08, LSU claimed the program’s third outright Southeastern Conference regular season title and did so with a perfect 14-0 league record. The unblemished run through the SEC schedule was the second time in school history the Lady Tigers had achieved the feat and the second time in four seasons. LSU’s second league title in the past three years began on the road with a tough challenge against No. 20/18 Arkansas, but the Lady Tigers quickly put the Lady Razorbacks away with a 76-54 win. Three days later, LSU opened its home league slate with a 62-51 victory over Vanderbilt followed by a decisive blowout of Mississippi State at home, 84-31. The 53-point win broke the largest margin of victory by the Lady Tigers over an SEC opponent in school history. LSU then took to the road for two crucial games and both went in favor of the Lady Tigers. Following a 79-59 win at No. 25/22 Auburn, LSU ran its SEC record to 5-0 with a 72-46 blowout of Kentucky at Rupp Arena for the program’s 700th victory. For 283 consecutive minutes, the Lady Tigers had not trailed until South Carolina took an early lead on LSU on Jan. 31. That 6-4 deficit proved to be short-lived as the Lady Tigers closed the month of January with a 67-37 win to run their record to 6-0. Two more road wins followed, including a decisive 85-71 win at Florida before a hostile crowd at the Stephen C. O’Connell Center. LSU faced its toughest test to date when the Lady Tigers pulled out a 63-57 road win at No. 24/21 Georgia on Feb. 10. With its record at 9-0, LSU traveled to Knoxville for a showdown with No. 1 Tennessee and what resulted was one of the most thrilling victories in school history. Down 21-2 eight minutes into the game, No. 7 LSU outscored Tennessee, 76-41, the rest of the game to stun the top-ranked Lady Vols, 78-62. Head coach Van Chancellor then defeated his former Ole Miss team, 78-48, and the Lady Tigers held on for a 52-48 home win to sweep Kentucky on the season series. LSU closed its regular season home schedule by beating Arkansas, 83-46, and the Lady Tigers completed a magical run through the conference schedule with a 69-49 win at Mississippi State to punctuate a 14-0 record.
2004-05 SEC Champions
2005-06 SEC Champions
In 2004-05 the LSU Lady Tigers made history, not only by winning the program’s first Southeastern Conference title, but by doing it in convincing fashion. The Lady Tigers completed the SEC schedule unblemished, posting a 14-0 record. LSU began the conference season with a home game against No. 17 Georgia on national television. The Lady Tigers, ranked No. 1 at the time, handed the Lady Bulldogs a 76-52 loss and took that momentum into Gainesville, Fla., for a date with the Lady Gators. The Lady Tigers rolled past Florida, 64-47, and then returned home to host both Alabama and Arkansas. LSU handed Alabama a 76-51 loss and defeated Arkansas, 91-45, in impressive fashion. A trip to Nashville to face Vanderbilt in Memorial Coliseum was next. The Lady Tigers had not had much success when facing the Commodores on their home floor, but this time LSU prevailed, 79-68, over 17th-ranked Vanderbilt. The end of January had the Lady Tigers return to Baton Rouge to host pesky Auburn. A hard fought 57-52 victory boosted LSU to a 6-0 league mark with eight games left. A road swing through Mississippi saw the Lady Tigers hand Ole Miss a 82-58 loss and Mississippi State a 67-40 loss. Those two wins meant a showdown in the Pete Maravich Center between topranked LSU at 8-0 in the league and fifth-ranked Tennessee, also with a perfect 8-0 league mark. The Lady Tigers took care of business in front of the largest home crowd in LSU women’s basketball history, defeating the Lady Vols 68-58 on national television. A 66-36 victory at South Carolina and a 81-58 home victory over Kentucky followed and LSU had 11 league wins, the most in the program’s history. The final three games awaited, including trips to Auburn and Arkansas. Once again, the Auburn Tigers proved pesky, but LSU prevailed 62-57. Things were much easier in Fayetteville as LSU rolled to a 90-64 win, clinching at least a share of the league crown for the Lady Tigers. LSU returned home with a chance to claim the program’s first outright league title and a perfect 14-0 record. Florida stood in the way, but not for long. In front of a crowd of over 10,000 fans, LSU defeated the Lady Gators, 76-52, and the first SEC Champions banner was dropped from the rafters of the PMAC.
LSU backed up its 2004-05 Southeastern Conference regular season championship, the first in the program’s history, with a successful defense, earning a second straight league title with a 13-1 record in 2005-06. The Lady Tigers kicked conference play off early with a 66-36 victory at Kentucky on Dec. 18. The title defense was underway. After a few more non-conference games, including wins at home over Michigan State and South Florida, LSU returned to league play at Auburn. Visiting the Plains is never an easy thing to do, but the Lady Tigers defeated the Tigers 65-38 to begin conference play with a 2-0 mark. Home wins over South Carolina and Alabama preceded a thrilling, 65-64, victory in Athens against No. 13 Georgia. That win put LSU in first place with a 5-0 record. The Lady Tigers returned home to face No. 22 Vanderbilt in the PMAC and a 75-53 victory over the Commodores coupled with a Tennessee loss at Kentucky the same night gave LSU a one-game lead atop the league standings over the Lady Vols. LSU won at Arkansas and at home against Ole Miss that set up a showdown in Knoxville with Tennessee. The Lady Tigers pulled off an exciting 72-69 win over the fifth-ranked Lady Vols to take a two-game lead with a 9-0 mark. The win was LSU’s first over Tennessee in Knoxville. Georgia invaded Baton Rouge with revenge on their minds, but LSU upended the Lady Dawgs, 68-61, to move to 10-0 and extend the Lady Tigers’ conference win streak to 24 straight games. LSU rolled into Gainesville in first place in the conference with a two-game lead, but Florida brought the Lady Tigers back into a title race with a 79-78 upset win in overtime. LSU held a slim one-game lead over Tennessee with three games to play. A home victory over Arkansas and a win at Alabama secured LSU of at least a tie for the title and earned the Lady Tigers the top seed for the upcoming SEC Tournament, but the program wanted its second straight outright title. Mississippi State invaded the PMAC for the final home game in the careers of seniors Seimone Augustus, Scholanda Hoston and Florence Williams. The senior trio did not disappoint, leading LSU to a 62-48 victory and the Lady Tigers second straight SEC regular season championship.

SEC Tournament Titles
HISTORY
1991 SEC Tournament Champions LSU claimed its first Tournament title in 1991 as the Lady Tigers had one of the most impressive runs in conference tournament history. Entering the tournament as the No. 4 seed, the Lady Tigers had a first round bye and then beat Kentucky, 96-76, in the second round. The Lady Tigers, who were ranked No. 12 in the nation, then upset fourthranked Georgia, 83-74, in the semifinals. In the title game, point guard Pokey Chatman scored 30 points, including 16 straight at one point, as the Lady Tigers knocked off third-ranked Tennessee, 80-75. Chatman was named most valuable player of the tournament, while Sheila Johnson and Annette Jackson-Lowery were named to the all-tournament team.
2003 SEC Tournament Champions The LSU Lady Tigers run through the Southeastern Conference Tournament was something
special in 2003. It had been 12 years since LSU had last won a tournament title and the Lady Tigers were hungry for the crown. Standing in the way of the second seeded and sixth-ranked Lady Tigers in the opening game were the No. 23 Arkansas Lady Razorbacks, a team that had handed LSU its first defeat of the season in Fayetteville earlier during the season. It would prove to be the closest margin of victory in LSU’s run to the title. LSU defeated Arkansas 78-72 thanks to some clutch free throw shooting down the stretch, including Seimone Augustus’ two free throws with 19 seconds to play to give the freshman her 21st and 22nd points of the game and LSU a four- point lead. Four of the five starters for LSU scored in double figures in the opening round victory over Arkansas. In addition to Augustus, Temeka Johnson added 15 points, while Doneeka Hodges and Aiysha Smith both hit for 11 points. 15th-ranked Vanderbilt was the next item on the menu for the Lady Tigers. The Commodores were also a team that had defeated LSU during the regular season. In fact, the defending SEC Tournament champions had knocked off LSU just the week before in Nashville and were playing with a lot of confidence heading into the semifinals of the SEC Tournament. Vandy had so much confidence in themselves they led by as many as nine in the first half and took a 39-35 lead into the locker room at halftime after shooting 51.7 percent from the floor in the opening 20 minutes of play. LSU did not take its first lead of the game until Seimone Augustus hit a pair or free throws with 17 minutes to play to give the Lady Tigers a 44-43 advantage. The lead went back and forth for most of the second half until LSU closed the game with a 12-2 run in the final four minutes to advance to their second straight SEC Tournament title game. Augustus took over the game during the final run, scoring 14 of her 20 points in the final four minutes of play. Aiysha Smith led LSU with 21 points, while Temeka Johnson added 12 points and Augustus had nine rebounds to go along with her point total. The stage was set for the SEC title game, sixth-ranked LSU vs. No. 3 Tennessee for the SEC Championship. It marked a rematch of the 68-65 Lady Vol victory during the regular season in Baton Rouge. The Lady Tigers took control of the game early, jumping out to a 7-0 lead while taking a 42-25 lead at the break. Tennessee managed to trim the margin down to 13 with 15 minutes to play before the Lady Tigers took the largest lead of the game at 18 with 10 minutes left. Temeka Johnson took home MVP honors after scoring a career-high 24 points in the victory. She added nine rebounds and seven assists in the win. Aiysha Smith added 18 points, while Seimone Augustus had 12 points and eight rebounds on her way to an all-tournament team selection. LSU avenged all three of its regular season losses with three wins over three top 25 teams in three days to win the 2003 SEC Tournament Championship.

THE
HISTORY
DEAF DOME
Over the last 16 years, the LSU women’s basketball team has established the Pete Maravich Assembly Center as one of the toughest road playing sites in not only the Southeastern Conference but the nation. Since the 1996-97 season, the Lady Tigers have posted a remarkable home record of 228-37 (.854), including averaging 14 victories per year. Since the 2004-05 season, LSU is 114-24 at home and over the past 10 seasons, the Lady Tigers are 14426 in the friendly confines of the Maravich Center. LSU has proven to be tough to beat in SEC play in the venue. In conference games, the Lady Tigers are 94-22 (.810) at home over the past 16 years and an amazing 54-13 over the past nine seasons. LSU is 47-19 at home against top 25 teams over the last 16 years, and the PMAC can back up its claim as one of the nation’s most-feared road sites. In Nikki Caldwell’s first season as head coach in 201112, LSU increased attendance by over 1,000 more fans than the previous season. Caldwell guided the Lady Tigers to their best home record since the 2008 Final Four season with a 13-4 mark, including a perfect 4-0 record against ranked teams during the regular season. Caldwell’s squad followed that up with a 15-3 record in 2012-13 highlighted by one of the most memorable atmospheres in school history when LSU topped No. 8 Penn State, 71-66, to reach the Sweet 16 with a roster of seven players. In addition to their success on the court, the Lady Tigers have also played before record crowds. Over the
154 LSU
past 11 seasons, LSU has established 14 of the top 15 crowds in PMAC history, including a record crowd of 15,233 against Tennessee on Feb. 10, 2005. During that span the Lady Tigers have played in front of 10 home crowds of over 10,000 fans. LSU finished the 2005-06 season ranked 14th in the nation in average home attendance with 6,273 and played in front of five crowds of at least 8,000 people. In 2004-05, LSU finished 10th in the nation in average home attendance with 7,317 fans per game, by far a record for the Lady Tigers. During that season four crowds of over 10,000 were recorded for games, including the record crowd of 15,233 against Tennessee. LSU ranked third in the SEC and among the top 15 in attendance nationally in 2011-12, averaging 4,315 fans per game and 73,348 total. LSU rarely gets upset on its home floor. The Lady Tigers are 173-15 over the last 16 years against unranked teams. LSU posted undefeated records at home over non-ranked opponents in 2007-08 (11-0), 2006-07 (11-0), 2005-06 (10-0), 2004-05 (10-0), 2002-03 (8-0), 2001-02 (11-0), 1999-00 (17-0), 1998-99 (11-0) and 1996-97 (11-0). During the 1999-2000 campaign, the Lady Tigers set a school-record with 17 home victories with their only loss coming at the hands of second-ranked Tennessee. In 38 years of history at the PMAC, LSU’s home court advantage can be compared with the best programs from across the country as the Lady Tigers have close to 80 percent of their homes games with a 418-111 overall mark. LSU claimed its 400th all-time

Maravich Center victory in Caldwell’s first season with a 53-49 victory over Mississippi State on Feb. 9, 2012. LSU has also put together winning streaks of 43, 26, 24 and 22 games at home. The Lady Tigers have also gone undefeated four times, going 15-0 in 2005-06, 12-0 in 2004-05, and 14-0 in both 1977-78 and 1985-86. Built in 1971, the PMAC underwent completed renovations prior to the 2005-06 season that included an updated concourse with new concessions, new seats and a new sound system. The concourse features interactive kiosks and displays recognizing the history of LSU basketball, including one exhibit of the late Hall of Fame head coach Sue Gunter. It also houses the plaques of all members of the LSU Athletic Hall of Fame. The capacity is 13,215 following the renovations. During the summer of 1988, Louisiana Governor Buddy Roemer signed legislation changing the official name of the building to
the Pete Maravich Assembly Center in honor of the LSU star who had died tragically earlier that same year. In addition to the normal basketballseating configuration, a proscenium stage can be lowered into place at the north end allowing some 4,000 seats for theatrical productions. An additional 1,000 seats can be placed on the floor for graduations, convocations, lectures, concerts or other special events. The Maravich Center has played host to several famous musical artists over the years, including KISS, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band, Def Leppard, Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, Garth Brooks and Jimmy Buffett. Also located in the building is an auxiliary practice gym used for basketball and volleyball practices; home and visitor dressing rooms; coaches dressing rooms, building administration offices; theater dressing rooms; Tiger Athletic Foundation offices; and the “L” Club meeting
HISTORY
room with kitchen facilities. In the summer of 2010, LSU’s state-of-theart basketball practice facility was officially completed and is connected to the PMAC through the Northwest portal. The facility gives both men’s and women’s teams ample practice room adjacent to their actual game playing floor of the Maravich Center. The Maravich Center has been the site for both men’s and women’s NCAA Regional Tournaments, the 1981 SEC Women’s Basketball Tournament, the 1988 SEC Men’s Basketball Tournament and two SEC Volleyball Tournaments. Since the current NCAA Tournament format began, LSU has played host to the NCAA women’s first and second rounds five times since 2004, doing so in 2004, ’08, ’09, ‘12 and most recently in 2013. LSU owns a 16-3 record in NCAA Tournament games played in the Maravich Center, including a 7-0 mark in first round contests.

Vice Chancellor/Director of Athletics
Joe Alleva LSU Vice Chancellor/Director of Athletics Joe Alleva continues to bring unprecedented national recognition to LSU as Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics. Under Alleva’s leadership, LSU enjoys one of the country’s premier athletics programs with success on and off the field of competition. Now in his sixth year at LSU, Alleva is dedicated to athletic and academic excellence, and is committed to providing the opportunities and the resources necessary for student-athletes to excel in competition, in the classroom and in the community. Alleva joined the LSU family on April 4, 2008 after a highly successful tenure as director of athletics at Duke University for 10 years. Alleva’s role at LSU was further expanded in August of 2009 when vice chancellor was added to his title by the LSU Board of Supervisors. It is the first time in school history that the director of athletics has also held a vice chancellor position. Alleva is currently serving a fiveyear term on the prestigious NCAA Men’s Basketball Committee, reinforcing his position as one of the most respected athletic administrators in the country. Upon his arrival at LSU, Alleva unveiled a strategic master plan for the LSU athletics program -- “LSU: Thru and True” -- to ensure the advancement and future of LSU Athletics as an exemplary program. The central mission of the plan is to create an environment for student-athletes to reach their ultimate potential, prepare them to be champions in life and to set out goals and values for the entire athletics program. Alleva’s vision will keep LSU among the nation’s leaders in athletic facilities. He launched an aggressive fund-raising campaign to replace several hundred windows in Tiger Stadium that were in disrepair, and a new coating to the facade of the structure has given the old stadium new life. A renovated gating system on the west side of the stadium debuted in the fall of 2012 to include a plaza that celebrates LSU’s football national championships and recognition walls that honor Tiger All-Americans. A new plaza will open on the north end of the stadium in the fall of 2013, further enriching the experience of visitors to the LSU campus. A new lighting system was installed prior to last season that turns the upper archways of the north end of the stadium purple and gold and lights the iconic “LSU” on the stadium’s north scoreboard. In addition, “Tiger Stadium” in 10-foot tall illuminated letters sits just below the west upper deck facing Nicholson Drive. Also in the fall of 2012, LSU began construction on an expansion of the South End Zone of the stadium -- a project that will add premium seating, general public seating and two stateof-the-art video boards -- continuing an effort to augment one of the most iconic venues in all of college sports. The project will be completed in time for the start of the 2014 football season. Under Alleva’s direction, LSU’s world-renowned track and field program received a state-of the-art running surface in 2010 when a new track was installed in Bernie Moore Stadium and extensive renovations to the Tiger soccer facility were completed in the fall of 2011. Alleva directed a major renovation to the University Club golf course that was completed in September 2010 and allows the LSU men’s and women’s golf teams to compete on one of the most challenging courses in the country. The renovated course helped prepare Tiger
180 LSU
golfers John Peterson and Austin Ernst, respectively, to win 2011 NCAA men’s and women’s individual championships, marking the first time both titles were claimed by players from the same school. The LSU men’s team in 2013 played host to an NCAA Regional for the first time in the school’s illustrious golf history. Future plans include a new gymnastics practice facility, a new tennis complex featuring indoor and outdoor courts, and a state-of-the-art Nutrition Center for Student-Athletes, a facility that will house full-time chefs and nutritionists and provide the best dietary selections for all Fighting Tiger competitors. LSU’s prominence was evident in the final 2012-13 Learfield Sports Director’s Cup standings that recognize the nation’s best athletic programs, as the Tigers finished in the Top 20 for the eighth consecutive year. The year was highlighted by another 10-win season and bowl appearance for the Fighting Tiger football team, which recorded a double-digit victory total for the sixth time in eight years. The men’s basketball program was rejuvenated by first-year coach Johnny Jones, who directed the Tigers to a 19-12 mark while placing LSU back into consideration for a postseason berth. Women’s basketball continued its rise under second-year coach Nikki Caldwell, who guided the Lady Tigers to LSU’s first Sweet 16 berth in five years. The 2013 Fighting Tiger baseball team established a school record for victories with 57 and earned the school’s 16th College World Series appearance while capturing SEC Western Division and SEC Tournament titles. The softball squad won the SEC West and played host to an NCAA Regional in Tiger Park before record crowds. The LSU gymnastics team reached the prestigious Super Six for the third time in six seasons, and the women’s track team, led by Bowerman Award winner and national sprint champion Kimberlyn Duncan, placed fourth in the final NCAA outdoor standings. But the 2012-13 year was about more than just athletic success. Living up to Alleva’s mantra of “competition, classroom, community,” LSU studentathletes logged more than 4,475 hours in community service work across 20 sports through LSU’s Geaux Givers program. And a total of 89 proud Tigers received their degrees from the university during LSU commencement ceremonies in December and May. The Tigers in 2011-12 finished fourth in both the men’s and women’s Capital
One Cup competition that identifies athletic excellence. LSU was one of only two schools in the country – and the only one in the SEC -- to rank in the top four in both categories. Eighteen of the Tigers’ 20 varsity sports participated in NCAA postseason competition in 2011-12. The year was highlighted by the football team’s undefeated regular season, an SEC championship and an appearance in the BCS National Championship Game. The Lady Tiger track and field team captured the SEC championship while the LSU softball squad advanced to the Women’s College World Series. The Fighting Tiger baseball team won the 2012 SEC championship, and LSU led the nation in attendance for the 17th straight season. The 2011-12 season marked the first time in school history that LSU won both the SEC title in both football and baseball in the same athletic year. Outstanding performances of the 2010-11 athletic season included the exploits of the Fighting Tiger football squad that posted an 11-2 mark – including a Cotton Bowl victory – and finished the season ranked No. 8 in the nation. The year also featured Top 5 national finishes both indoors and outdoors by the men’s and women’s track and field teams. In 2008-09, all 20 LSU sports competed in NCAA postseason play for the first time in school history and the Tiger baseball team won the national championship. LSU ranked second among Southeastern Conference teams in the Learfield Director’s Cup All-Sports standings and finished in the Top 20 for the sixth year in a row. With a strong commitment to academics, Alleva ensures that the Cox Communications Academic Center for Student-Athletes is a first-class facility that provides student-athletes the resources necessary for success in the classroom and personal development. The facility was recently enhanced by the addition of a media training center that gives student-athletes valuable assistance in improving their communications skills. And with a strong emphasis on community service and outreach programs, the implementation under Alleva’s direction of the “Geaux Givers” program fosters a relationship between the local community and LSU studentathletes, who regularly participate in philanthropic events. In addition, Alleva has bolstered the department’s L-Club program to reach out and connect with former student-athletes. Alleva oversees a staff of outstanding coaches and he has made
2012 3-13 4 w o m e n ’ s b a s k e t b a ll ME D I A G U I D E
critical additions to LSU’s coaching staff in recent years. He hired former LSU guard Johnny Jones in April 2012 to breathe new life and enthusiasm into the men’s basketball program and last year added Julia Sell as the new women’s tennis coach. In 2011, he lured the dynamic Nikki Caldwell to LSU to coach the Lady Tiger basketball team and then hired Beth Torina to direct the Tiger softball program, both of whom immediately returned their respective programs to NCAA postseason success. Alleva is an innovator with bold ideas that benefit not only LSU but all of Greater Baton Rouge. He has been instrumental in the planning of the Bayou Country Superfest, a two-day country music concert and festival held in Tiger Stadium each spring. The event attracts nearly 100,000 visitors to the LSU campus and makes a tremendous economic impact upon the local community. Alleva has served on numerous national committees throughout his career including the Football Bowl Certification Committee, the NCAA Division I Championships/Competition Cabinet and several Southeastern Conference and Atlantic Coast Conference committees. He became director of athletics at Duke in 1998 and his impressive tenure there propelled the university into the ranks of America’s top allaround collegiate programs. Among his outstanding list of accomplishments includes the greatest 10-year period in Duke Athletics, winning more ACC and NCAA championships than in any other decade in school history. Alleva, whose hometown is Suffern, N.Y., majored in Finance at Lehigh University and received his bachelor’s degree in 1975. While at Lehigh, Alleva was the quarterback of the football team and team captain in 1974. Alleva also played on the Lehigh baseball team. He served as a graduate assistant football coach and earned an MBA in 1976. While at Duke, Alleva played a key role in Durham’s community sports scene. He started Little League Baseball in Durham over 20 years ago, and also began the American Legion baseball program. He is a member of the North Carolina American Legion Hall of Fame, Suffern High School Hall of Fame and the Rockland County Hall of Fame. Alleva and his wife, Annie, have three children, J.D., Jeff, and Jenny. Joe and Annie recently welcomed their first grandchild, Harper, the daughter of Jenny and husband Kyle Young.

The Southeastern Conference The Nation’s Premier Women’s Basketball League SEC By The Numbers
Commissioner Mike Slive Throughout its 80-year history, the Southeastern Conference has been a leader in the integration of athletic competition and higher education. Since its formation in 1933, the SEC has achieved both stature and stability by designating governing/voting power to the presidents of the member institutions. They have determined the policies of the conference and through the years this involvement has been the principal source of strength in the evolution of the SEC. Intercollegiate athletics has encountered many challenges in the 1990s and again the SEC provided guidance. In 1993, the member institutions adopted The Principles of Gender Equity. Committed to increasing the quantity and quality of women’s athletic opportunities, each school provides at least two more women’s intercollegiate programs than the number of men’s. The SEC currently regulates nine men’s sports and 11 women’s sports: Men—baseball, basketball, football, golf, swimming, tennis and track (cross country, indoor and outdoor). Women—basketball, golf, gymnastics, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track (cross country, indoor and outdoor) and volleyball. The 2012-13 athletic year welcomed two new members to the prestigious conference in Texas A&M and Missouri.
• The SEC has posted impressive non-conference records in the last decade. The SEC compiled a 150-37 (.802) nonconference record during the 2012-13 season. • Since the 1990 season, the SEC has compiled a 3295-983 (.770) record against other conferences. The league has recorded 150+ wins during nine seasons and has never recorded a non-conference winning percentage below .723. • SEC teams have earned appearances in 25 of 32 NCAA Final Fours, an accomplishment unmatched by any other league. • Overall, SEC squads have filled 35 of the 128 Final Four berths, including having two Final Four teams in 1988 (Auburn, Tennessee), 1989 (Auburn, Tennessee), 1995 (Georgia, Tennessee), 1996 (Georgia, Tennessee), 1998 (Arkansas, Tennessee), 2004 (LSU, Tennessee), 2005 (LSU, Tennessee), 2007 (LSU, Tennessee) and 2008 (LSU, Tennessee). • SEC teams have made 18 appearances in a nation-high 16 NCAA Championship games, winning eight NCAA Championships. • SEC teams have won 361 NCAA Tournament games against 187 losses (.659) for an average of 11.2 NCAA wins per year. In addition, the SEC was the first league to ever have eight teams invited to the NCAA Tournament, doing so in 1999, 2002 and in 2012. • The SEC has had 59 student-athletes named as a FirstTeam All-America selection. Those 59 have been named a total of 86 times since the 1982-83 season (first year of SEC sponsorship). • All-Americans were first named in women’s basketball in 1975. Since that time, league schools have had 67 players named first-team a total of 111 times.

PREVIEW
2014 SEC Tournament
2014 SEC Tournament March 5-9 • The Arena at Gwinnett Center • Duluth, Ga. With eight national championships, 10 runnerup finishes and a nation-leading 34 Final Four appearances, the Southeastern Conference stands firmly as the nation’s premier intercollegiate women’s basketball conference. On Feb. 7, 1980, the first SEC women’s basketball tournament began play. It ended four days later with Tennessee defeating Ole Miss for the title. Fast forward 34 years later and the SEC Tournament is still enjoying success and increased popularity. For the second time in SEC history, the Women’s Basketball Tournament underwent a format change in 2013. The tournament, which had been a four-day event featuring 12 teams, expanded to 14 teams, adding an extra day of competition. The tournament will once again begin on Wednesday with two additional games that feature Seeds 11 through 14. Also new to the tournament format will be splitting the early sessions in which the league’s top-two seeds play. The tournament’s top seed will play its first game in the afternoon session, while the No. 2 seed will play in the evening session. Tickets for the tournament are $100 for a reserved book. A ticket book contains seven tickets, one for each session, which allows one person to attend all 13 games. Tickets can be purchased at www.SECDigitalNetwork.com or by calling (800) 732-4849. Additional information regarding special ticket promotions, including advanced single session ticket sales, will be announced at a later date.

The Arena at Gwinnett Center seats 10,309 for the SEC Tournament. It is located just off I-85 on Sugarloaf Parkway in Duluth, Ga., 30 minutes north of downtown Atlanta.

2014 NCAA Tournament
NCAA Tournament Returns to the Maravich Center
2014 NCAA TOURNAMENT SCHEDULE AND LOCATIONS Regionals March 29-April 1 Pinnacle Bank Arena Lincoln, Neb. Hosted by University of Nebraska
For the third straight season, “March Madness” returns to the Maravich Center as LSU has been selected as a host site for the 2014 NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament First and Second Rounds, the NCAA announced in early October. NCAA Tournament first and second rounds around the country will be played between Saturday, March 22 and Tuesday, March 25. Actual game dates and times for Baton Rouge will be unveiled by the NCAA in late October following the NCAA Division I Basketball Selection Committee’s fall meeting. Information on how to purchase tickets will be announced at a later date. “Any time you get to host the NCAA Tournament on your home floor, it’s an exciting experience for your fans and team,” said LSU head coach Nikki Caldwell. “We appreciate our administration and the NCAA for giving us this opportunity. It’s now our job to get there. Last year’s scene in the Maravich Center was unbelievable and something none of our players will ever forget. Our goal is to get back there.” Since the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament was expanded to its current 64-team format, LSU has played host to first-and-second round games eight times. Last year, the Lady Tigers reached the NCAA Sweet 16 on their home floor in one of the most memorable games in school history. After beating 20th-ranked Green Bay, 75-71, in the first round, a raucous home crowd saw LSU knock off No. 8 Penn State, 71-66, to reach the Sweet 16 for the first time since 2008. Due to several injuries, the Lady Tigers had only seven available players who each contributed in the final home game of the year. LSU also served as a host site for first-and-second round games in 1997, 1999, 2000, 2004, 2008, 2009 and 2010. The Lady Tigers are 16-3 all-time in NCAA Tournament games played in Baton Rouge. That record dates back to LSU’s first hosting opportunity in 1984. LSU owns a perfect 8-0 record all-time in NCAA Tournament First Round games in the Maravich Center. The 2014 NCAA Final Four will be played at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tenn., April 6 and 8.
