A national runner-up finish in gymnastics and third-place national finishes in men’s indoor track and field, women’s outdoor track and field, and beach volleyball, helped propel LSU to a No. 11 finish in the Learfield IMG Directors’ Cup for the 2018-19 athletic season.

It’s the highest finish for LSU in the Director’s Cup in a decade when the Tigers placed No. 9 nationally following the 2008-09 season.
