LSU Beats Louisville Behind Balanced Attack

LSU spread the ball around today.  Seven players scored.  Three of them scored in double digits as LSU beat a hsutling Louisville 41-14.

LSU fast-breaked their way to a 10-2 lead four minutes into the game, and never looked back.  A tough LSU defense led to a fast break offense as Ryan Lane dominated the boards and Walter Rivas forced turnover after turnover.  LSU built its lead to 25-10 at the half.

In the second half, LSU went to their "Bermuda Triangle" defense, and stopped Louisville cold in the third quarter.  Louisville was shut out 10-0 in the third quarter.  With the game in hand, LSU slowed the game down in the fourth quarter.

Walter Rivas led the team with 13 points.  Will Howes and Ryan Lane each scored 10.  Also chipping in important buckets:  Noah Kleitsch, Murphy LaFerle, Nick Liccardi and Miles Kenny.
