Senior Taylor Manuel (St Louis, Mo.) was nearly unstoppable inside with 19 points for the Rebels, but Ole Miss couldn’t overcome poor shooting in the second half, falling to LSU 65-49 in the second round of the SEC Tournament on Thursday.
Manuel led the way for Ole Miss with 19 points – the second most points for the Missouri native this season. Shandricka Sessom (Byhalia, Miss.), who had on off night from the floor with just six points led the way on the glass with eight rebounds. Madinah Muhammad (Chicago, Ill.) added 12 points.
Ole Miss (17-13) started the game on a tear jumping out to a 9-0 advantage behind a game-opening jumper from Manuel and punctuated by a triple from Sessom forcing the Tigers to call a timeout at the 6:18 mark. The Tigers finally got their first bucket at the 6:03 mark but Ole Miss extended its lead to 12-4 a long triple from Muhammad but the Tigers started to chip back at it at the end of the half using an 11-4 spurt to cut Ole Miss’ lead to 16-13 at the end of one-quarter of play.

The Rebels extended their lead to 11 points, 30-19, at the 3:06 mark of the second quarter but it was LSU who got hot late in the quarter using a 10-0 to close the half, cutting Ole Miss’ lead to just one point at the halftime break. One of the highlights of the quarter was an emphatic block from freshman Bree Glover (Glasgow, Ky.) to keep the Tigers at bay.
LSU took its first lead of the game at the 6:28 mark of the third quarter on a triple from Alexis Hyder before Ole Miss tied the game at 34-34 on a bucket from Manuel heading into the third quarter media timeout. The teams traded buckets but LSU used an 8-1 run to take a 41-35 lead but Ole Miss stuck around and used a layup to get the lead to two possessions with 2:49 left in the quarter before went on a 9-1 run to close and take a 14 point lead they wouldn’t give up the rest of the game.
