 BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - LSU coach John Brady didn't expect to have an easy time against Samford in the final game of the Hispanic College Fund Classic on Friday. Brady's assessment was correct as it took the 17th-ranked Tigers about 30 minutes to pull away in a 60-45 victory.
Glen Davis, selected the Most Valuable Player of the three-day tournament, scored a 19 points and finished with 64 in the Tigers' three victories. He was 7-of-13 from the field and had nine rebounds against Samford.
"I knew that it was going to be a possession-by-possession game that would go all 40 minutes," Brady said. "I thought as time went on we would be good enough athletically and defensively to slowly advance our lead, which is what we were able to do."
