Late stretch sinks Tiger women

As they have the past few games, the Missouri Tigers stayed with one of the best teams in the country. But a stretch of about three minutes gave the Tigers’ their ninth SEC loss and sank the team under .500 for the first time since a 1-2 start to the season.

“We keep talking about being able to put 40 minutes together,” Missouri coach Robin Pingeton said. “And I thought that last maybe two and a half minutes of the third, we had some tough possessions defensively. But we regrouped.”

The No. 6 LSU Tigers used a 12-1 run to end the third quarter to build an eventual 71-60 win as the teams played even outside of those three minutes.

“We started making shots,” LSU coach Kim Mulkey said of the run. “Not to take anything away from Missouri, they’ve been in a lot of games lately, take it down to the wire, so we knew they were playing good basketball.”

The pair of Tiger teams were tied at 38 with 4:28 left in the third quarter, then the game went to the third-quarter media timeout with 3:57 left.

Out of the break, Mikaylah Williams drained a 3, three of her 16 points for LSU to go with five assists, then Aneesah Morrow added a putback layup to help power her double-double of 13 points and 14 rebounds to go with four steals.

A De’Myla Brown free throw broke the five-point streak, but LSU poured in the next eight points as the quarter came to a close to make it a 51-39 game going into the fourth quarter.

“It’s the same story every game lately, right?” Pingeton said. “We’re right there, right? So close. But what a great showing by our kids.”

Missouri quickly cut the lead to seven at the start of the fourth quarter when Laniah Randle hit a free throw, Grace Slaughter connected on a transition layup and Randle added a layup of her own to bring the Black & Gold within 51-44.

Slaughter ended with 18 points to lead the home Tigers.

“Just trying to do what the team needs,” Slaughter said. “… Once again, I feel like I play with a great group of teammates that just do a good job of finding me.”

Randle finished with 15 points and three assists.

But LSU quickly extended back to a double-digit lead and never let Missouri back within six, though an Ashton Judd 3 with 3:26 left to play did bring the home Tigers within 62-56.

Judd finished with 17 points and three rebounds.

Missouri, which entered the game as the top 3-point shooting team in the SEC – making 37.9 percent of its attempts from deep, just ahead of Alabama at 37.3 percent in second then there’s a big drop off to Florida at 34.4 percent in third – opened the game just 2-of-12 from deep before finishing the game hitting 4-of-7 to keep the game close.

“We did a much better in the second half of that ball movement,” Pingeton said.

Missouri took an early lead to start the game when a Judd jumper followed by one from Randle made it 4-3 Missouri with 7:00 left in the first quarter.

The home Tigers extended as far as a 13-7 lead with 2:32 left after a couple of free throws from Abbey Schreacke, then led by six again at 15-9 after a Nyah Wilson layup.

LSU cut the lead to 15-11 going to the second quarter, then quickly jumped ahead in the second after a Williams 3 made it 19-17 with 7:38 left before the break.

After shooting just 4-of-14 from the field and 0-of-2 from 3 in the first quarter, LSU connected on 7-of-13 (53.8 percent) overall and 4-of-5 (80 percent) from deep in the second quarter to take a 31-27 lead into halftime.

LSU led the rebounding battle 40-30, with 16 offensive boards that led to a 20-3 advantage in second-chance points.

LSU also led the battle for bench points 21-5.

Missouri shot 21-of-52 (40.4 percent) overall, 6-of-19 (31.6 percent) from 3 and 12-of-19 (63.2 percent) at the free-throw line.

“We’ve got to do a better job at the free-throw line, for sure,” Pingeton said. “We’re leaving too many points out there from the free-throw line and we have the last couple games.”

LSU shot 23-of-59 (39 percent) from the field, 7-of-15 (46.7 percent) from deep and 18-of-24 (75 percent) from the stripe.

Missouri (12-13, 1-9 SEC) has just six games left in the regular season with the next one coming at 3 p.m. Sunday when the Tigers go on the road to take on Texas A&M.

It’s All Madsen In Missouri High Limit Tilt – SPEED SPORT

It’s All Madsen In Missouri High Limit Tilt – SPEED SPORT

WHEATLAND, Mo. — It was all Kerry Madsen on Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway as the 54-year-old native of Australia, who’s now based in Knoxville, Iowa, picked up his first Interstate Batteries High Limit Sprint racing victory.

Madsen led all 30 laps to earn the $12,000 prize. He outdistanced runner-up Sue Lynch by 2.79 seconds with Tanner Holmes finishing third.

“The car’s been super quick every time we’ve hit the track,” Madsen said, noting several competitive runs in the early portion of the High Limit schedule. “The car’s been quick every night, which gives you a lot of confidence.

“We haven’t drawn well in dashes and had some little stuff going on. We drew a good one (tonight) and the car was good and we got the job done. I’m pretty happy.”

That changed this time as Madsen beat Holmes in the dash, to claim the pole position for the feature.

Madsen said his young crew chief Ty Wolfgang has “done a great job” getting in sync with him. Communication has been a big key.

“I know it sounds weird, but just hanging out together,” Madsen said of the driver-crew chief chemistry. “Dinner and a beer and just talk about racing. You do that and it might be a Wednesday night, but something clicks. He’s been real receptive with that stuff and that’s great.”

Madsen, a former Knoxville Nationals 360 winner, paced the early going after starting from the pole, with Holmes in close pursuit. Action slowed on lap six with Chase Randall and Danny Samms III tangling in turn two for the first and only yellow of the event.

Lynch moved into second on the restart as Madsen opened a 1.5-second lead by lap nine as Holmes dropped to third. Madsen’s margin swelled to nearly two seconds by lap 11 – but Lynch tracked down the leader and cut the deficit to a half-second at the halfway mark on lap 15.

As the race continued until green-flag conditions, Madsen settled into a one-second advantage as Lynch and Holmes tried to keep pace. Madsen poured it on in the late stages, cruising to the checkers by nearly three seconds over Lynch.

“Hopefully we can keep rolling like this all year. Obviously, you can’t win every night, but being quick and running well is going to be awesome,” Madsen said.

Lynch, 28 from Cowansville, Pa., said the team found some steering issues and gave him a fast car. It just was not fast enough to stay with Madsen on Saturday night.

“We were battling steering issue in the dash and it was pretty obvious,” Lynch said. “We just didn’t have time to change it and we just tried to make it the best we could. Really the car was super good. The guys busted their butt all night. It’s a testament to the team. We’re working hard and hopefully one spot better real soon.”

Holmes, a 22-year-old from Jacksonville, Oregon, came home third with Daison Pursley fourth, Hank Davis fifth and Rico Abreu charging from 11th to sixth.

“Our best night of the year,” Holmes said. “We’ve got to race a little bit during a break with High Limit these last few weeks. Some of those nights when we got our teeth kicked in taught us a lot.”

Fast overall qualifier was Sye Lynch at 13.342 seconds out of Group A. Aaron Reutzel led Group B with a lap of 13.469 seconds. Both were well off the track record for 410 Sprints held by Rico Abreu at 12.829 seconds on June 29, 2024.

The finish:

Feature: 1. 55-Kerry Madsen[1]; 2. 42-Sye Lynch[3]; 3. 13-Tanner Holmes[2]; 4. 9-Daison Pursley[4]; 5. 17GP-Hank Davis[5]; 6. 24-Rico Abreu[11]; 7. 7BC-Tyler Courtney[12]; 8. 77-Giovanni Scelzi[6]; 9. 19-Brent Marks[9]; 10. 26-Justin Peck[10]; 11. 88-Tanner Thorson[15]; 12. 21-Brian Brown[14]; 13. 28-Jace Park[23]; 14. 87-Aaron Reutzel[7]; 15. 19JR-Joel Myers Jr[20]; 16. 45X-Rees Moran[21]; 17. 5-Brenham Crouch[19]; 18. 44-Chris Martin[8]; 19. 19H-Kaleb Johnson[22]; 20. 87X-Logan Seavey[17]; 21. 36-Jason Martin[16]; 22. 9R-Chase Randall[18]; 23. 24D-Danny Sams III[13]; 24. 2-Miles Paulus[24]
