NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - The 12th-ranked Vanderbilt Commodores think they're peaking at just the right time. Carla Thomas scored 23 points and Vanderbilt beat No. 7 LSU 68-58 Thursday night for the Commodores' seventh straight victory and their first over a Top 10 team since March 2003.
With the win, Vanderbilt (24-4, 10-3) snapped a tie with LSU and moved into a tie with Georgia for second in the Southeastern Conference although 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.
"I think we're capable of a lot more than we showed tonight," Thomas said. "It's coming around at the right time. Senior night, it's coming together at the end of the year."
