Angel Reese spent her final two college seasons at LSU, where she helped the Tigers win the first national championship in program history, and blossomed into a first-round WNBA draft pick. While her time in Baton Rouge was successful, she said it wasn't always enjoyable.

Reese returns to the PMAC just two years after leading LSU to the 2023 NCAA title under Mulkey’s tutelage. She was a two‑time All‑American who averaged 18.6 points and 13.4 rebounds as a senior. Reese averaged 14.4 rebounds per game during her two years with the Tigers, the most in SEC history.
