LSU coach Kim Mulkey laments players' failure to foul late in 83-77 loss to No. 3 South Carolina

With her team trailing by five to No. 3 South Carolina and 45 seconds left, LSU coach Kim Mulkey wanted the Tigers to trap — and then foul if they couldn’t come up with a turnover. Thirty seconds expired off the clock before center Madina Okot beat the shot clock after a spin move in the low post with 15 seconds left to seal South Carolina’s 83-77 victory, sending the Gamecocks (31-2) into the SEC Tournament championship game Sunday. “We were supposed to (foul),” a flabbergasted Mulkey said.
