Coach Jay Clark on LSU's sixth-ranked victory

The win at Stegeman Coliseum was a big one for the Lady Tigers, as it marks their sixth win against a ranked opponent this season. Here's what coach head coach Jay Clark had to say about his team's performance:

“I thought tonight was a good positive step in the right direction, we’re still a work in progress and there’s still areas of improvement that have nothing to do with physical capabilities, but maturity in our mindset. It’s always great to get a win, but we have to be able to execute better on the road if we want to be the team we think we are.”

"I do not focus on whether we get a low or high score. It’s about our performance. We did our job tonight and we can do that same performance somewhere else. For us it’s about keeping our eye on the next step ahead of us and just taking it one step at a time.”
