LSU women’s basketball trio named to preseason Wade Trophy watch list
LSU women’s basketball players Angel Reese, Hailey Van Lith and Aneesah Morrow were named to the WBCA preseason watch list for the Wade Trophy, which is given annually to the top player in women’s college basketball.
The Tigers are the only team with three players on the watch list.
Reese returns to LSU this year after leading the team to a national title last season and earning First Team All-American honors while setting an NCAA record for double-doubles.
Van Lith was the nation’s top transfer coming from Louisville, where she was an All-ACC selection last year. Morrow sat at No. 2 on the transfer rankings coming from DePaul, where she was previously the National Freshman of the Year.
After winning its two exhibitions in dominant fashion, LSU begins the regular season on Monday night against Colorado in Las Vegas.
