NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Carla Thomas scored 23 points and Vanderbilt beat No. 7 LSU 68-58 Thursday night for the Commodores' seventh straight victory and their first victory over a Top 10 team since March 2003.
With the win, No. 12 Vanderbilt (24-4, 10-3) snapped a tie with LSU for third and moved into a tie with Georgia for second in the Southeastern Conference, though Georgia holds the tiebreaker. The Commodores, who finish the regular season Sunday at No. 2 Tennessee, moved closer to a first-round bye in the league tournament next week.
The Tigers (23-6, 9-4) now have lost three of their last four and missed a chance to help coach Pokey Chatman celebrate her 100th game with a victory.
