SHREVEPORT, La. – The LSUS Pilots put on a dominant display as they cruised to a commanding 100-31 victory over Our Lady of the Lake University (OLLU) on Senior Day.

LSUS wasted no time setting the tone, utilizing relentless defensive pressure and efficient shooting to build an insurmountable lead early. The Pilots shot an impressive 55.1 percent from the field, 40.7 percent from beyond the arc, and a perfect 100 percent from the free throw line.

Helena Galunic added 15 points, four rebounds, four assists, and two steals, while Erynn Williams and Alexis Brown each contributed 12 points. Brown also recorded three assists, three steals, and two rebounds, while Williams grabbed three boards, and set the single season steal record at 78 with three swipes.

Defensively, the Pilots stifled OLLU, holding the visitors to just 26.7 percent shooting from the field and 29.4 percent from three-point range. Julia Plata led OLLU with nine points and one assist, while Carlea Owens finished with eight points, nine rebounds, and two steals.
