Lsu Rallies For 64-58 Win Over South Carolina

(AP) — Thanks to its defense down the stretch, LSU ran its winning streak to three games with a 64-58 Southeastern Conference victory against South Carolina on Wednesday night. Tyrone Johnson scored the Gamecocks' only points down the stretch with a layup to put them back in front at 58-57 with 1:39 to play. The Gamecocks had two opportunities to take the lead in the last 35 seconds, but had shots blocked. Two foul shots by Martin with 9:41 remaining before halftime put LSU in front 19-15. The Tigers would a build a five-point advantage twice - the last at 24-19 on a basket by Hornsby with 6:13 to play in the half. A pair of field goals by Notice enabled South Carolina to tie the score at 25-25 with 2:52 before halftime. The Tigers scored the next four points on a field goal by Quarterman and two foul shots by Mickey. Laimonas Chatkevicius replaced Henry in the starting lineup and finished with six points and four rebounds. LSU blocked a season-high 13 shots with Jarell Martin also having six, a career high. LSU's 2009 SEC championship team opened that season with a 6-1 league record.
