LITTLE ROCK – In its final non-conference game of the 2017-18 regular season, Little Rock women's basketball (3-7) will host LSU (6-3) at the Jack Stephens Center on Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. The game will air live on Cox Sports Television (where available) as well as LRTrojans.com.

The first 200 fans at Wednesday night's game will receive a free tech wallet. Fans can purchase the Family Four Pack which includes four general admission tickets for $20.

Wednesday will also be Crossfit Night at the Jack Stephens Center. Three teams from area crossfit organizations will face off in a crossfit battle at halftime. 
 
Little Rock trails LSU 1-3 in the all-time series that began in 2013. The Trojans' lone win over the Lady Tigers came in the 2014-15 season opener in Baton Rouge by a score of 70-54. Keanna Keys led Little Rock with nine rebounds and put up six points in that meeting. LSU has visited the Jack twice before in 2013 and 2015 and won both games by seven and six points, respectively.
 
The Tigers are currently on a four-game winning streak with victories over Saint Louis, Texas Tech, Tulane and Louisiana.
 

• A win over LSU would be the first time in program history that Little Rock has earned two home victories against two current Power 5 opponents in the same season.
• A victory on Wednesday would be the second time that Little Rock has defeated both LSU and Oklahoma in the same season. The first time was during the 2014-15 season.
• A win against LSU would give the Trojans their first 4-7 start in the Joe Foley era (2003-present) and first since 2001-02.
• Little Rock's 74.8 free-throw percentage ranks 36th nationally and leads the Sun Belt.
• Little Rock's 141 turnovers through 10 games are its fewest since recording 136 in 2008-09.
• Little Rock is committing 14.1 turnovers per game — the 62nd-fewest in the nation and the fewest in the conference.
• The Trojans have committed fewer turnovers than their opponents in nine of 10 games this season.
• At 125 career steals, Monique Townson is two away from passing Anshel Cooper (2006-09) for the 10th-most in program history.
• Townson's assist-turnover ratio of 3.07 ranks 19th nationally and first in the Sun Belt.
• Raeyana DeGray has led Little Rock with at least 14 points in five of the last six games.

 
Little Rock will begin Sun Belt Conference action on Dec. 29 at the Jack Stephens Center as it hosts Louisiana at 5 p.m.
