Vandy defeats LSU

Riley LaChance hit two free throws with 2:01 left to put Vanderbilt ahead to stay, and the Commodores snapped a four-game skid by beating LSU 77-71. The Commodores (7-12, 2-5 SEC) watched a 16-point lead in the second half disappear as they played a second straight game without their second-leading scorer Matthew Fisher-Davis. LaChance finished with 26 points. Jeff Roberson had 20 for Vanderbilt.
