LSU women's basketball will face a familiar foe in the Sweet 16 of the 2026 NCAA Tournament. The No. 2-seeded Tigers will take on No. 3-seeded Duke to determine who moves onto the Elite 8.
The two sides faced off in the regular season as part of the ACC/SEC challenge. Inside Cameron Indoor Stadium, LSU overcame a double digit deficit to win 93-77. It was LSU's ninth win of the season and Duke's fourth-straight loss.
Flau'Jae Johnson scored 11 of her game-high 18 points in the final frame, leading a group of six Tigers in double figures. They staved off multiple comeback attempts by head coach Kara Lawson's team to close out a tough road contest.
The Blue Devils went 22-3 following the LSU loss, including a run to their second-straight ACC Tournament championship. They took care of Charleston and Baylor in their first two games of March Madness.
LSU comes into the Sweet 16 fresh off two blowout wins over Jacksonville and Texas Tech. The Tigers set an NCAA record by scoring 100 or more points for the 16th time this season. They got 24 points each from Mikaylah Williams and Flau'Jae Johnson along with double-doubles from Kate Koval and Amiya Joyner against the Red Raiders on Sunday.
