LSU Team Report Jun 9, 2009

After two subpar seasons that resulted in just the second coaching change at the school since the early 1970s, LSU bounced back in a big way in 2008-09, winning not only the SEC's Western Division for the fourth time but its second overall regular-season league title as well.
