Last-Tear Poa's family surprises her on LSU senior night

Last-Tear Poa's family flew all the way from Australia to surprise the LSU star on her senior night. A video of the emotional moment was shared on the program's Instagram page a week ago.

The post featured photos of an excited Poa hugging her family. The next was a video showing a surprised Poa walking into the arena and rushing to meet her parents, brother and sister.

Poa has endured a tough season with LSU. First, she was not included in the Tigers' roster during their preseason games after she filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services after her P-1A athlete visa application was denied, preventing her from pursuing NIL opportunities.

She has also struggled for playing time on the court, averaging 2.3 points per game and 2.0 assists in the 18 games she has appeared in this season. Poa also missed two games in January against Texas A&M and Oklahoma. LSU coach Kim Mulkey revealed the senior guard was being disciplined for breaking a team rule.

However, she featured in LSU's 56-49 loss to Texas in the SEC Tournament semifinal on Saturday night. Poa recorded three points and one rebound in 20 minutes of play.

Despite the adversity, Poa continues to provide leadership for the LSU team, especially in terms of her clutch performances and defensive skills. Her contributions in terms of assists, defense and intangibles continue to make her an essential part of LSU's success story despite limited time on the court.
