BATON ROUGE - Matt McMahon and the LSU Men's Basketball team closed out 2023 in the win column after taking down Northwestern St. 96-55 Friday night.

It was a game where a lot of players shined on the floor. Six Tigers scored in double digits in the effort to put up almost 100 points.

Forwards Derek Fountain and Hunter Dean each had a double double in the victory; Fountain had 10 points and 10 rebounds while Dean recorded 11 points and 10 rebounds.

LSU wraps up the non-conference schedule with an 8-5 record, and they start SEC play on January 6 when they face Texas A&M in College Station.
