Top Scorers Ta'Niya Latson and Flau'jae Johnson Set to Clash in NCAA Tournament Second Round

Florida State and LSU prepare for a fast-paced matchup featuring two All-Americans and a trip to the Sweet 16 on the line.

Florida State's Ta'Niya Latson, the nation's leading scorer, and LSU's Flau'jae Johnson, the Tigers' top scorer, will face off Monday at 6 p.m. ET.
Both teams are coming off dominant first-round wins, with Florida State defeating George Mason 94-59 and LSU routing San Diego State 103-48.
Latson and Johnson share a history of competition, including a 2022 high school game where Latson's team prevailed, and both earned All-American honors this season.
LSU coach Kim Mulkey plans to rotate defenders on Latson to limit her scoring and ability to draw fouls, while Florida State focuses on countering LSU's depth.
The game is expected to be high-scoring, with oddsmakers setting the over-under at 170 points, reflecting the offensive firepower of both teams.
