Aneesah Morrow Shines in First Year at LSU, Proving to Be One of Nation’s Top Post Players
March 20, 2025 – Baton Rouge, LA
In her debut season with the LSU Tigers, Aneesah Morrow has solidified her status as one of the premier post players in women’s college basketball. A dominant force on both ends of the floor, Morrow has consistently put up impressive numbers, earning her reputation as a double-double machine.
The junior forward transferred to LSU after two standout seasons at DePaul, where she was already making waves as one of the nation’s most versatile bigs. Since arriving in Baton Rouge, Morrow has seamlessly transitioned into LSU’s high-powered system, complementing star players like Angel Reese and Flau’jae Johnson while making her own mark on the program.
Morrow’s ability to score in the paint, crash the boards, and defend at a high level has been instrumental in LSU’s success this season. She currently ranks among the top rebounders in the country, often pulling down 10 or more rebounds per game while adding crucial points in the Tigers’ offensive sets.
Head coach Kim Mulkey has repeatedly praised Morrow’s work ethic and adaptability, emphasizing how crucial she has been to LSU’s frontcourt dominance. “Aneesah brings an incredible level of intensity every game,” Mulkey said. “She’s relentless on the boards, she can score from multiple spots, and she’s a huge presence defensively. She’s exactly the kind of player you want on your team.”
Morrow’s impact has been felt in key matchups throughout the season. In LSU’s thrilling victory over South Carolina, she posted 18 points and 14 rebounds, proving she can compete against the best in the country. Her consistency has been a driving force in LSU’s push for another deep NCAA tournament run.
As the postseason approaches, Morrow’s performance will be critical for the Tigers as they look to defend their national championship. With her relentless rebounding, inside scoring ability, and defensive prowess, she is not only a key piece for LSU’s title hopes but also a strong contender for national accolades.
LSU fans will be watching closely as Morrow and the Tigers continue their journey toward another championship, and if her first year in Baton Rouge is any indication, she’s just getting started.
