Good morning and happy Tuesday. Here are some of the day's top headlines. LSU loses out: With 41 points and high-volume, 3-point shooting that befuddled the LSU women's basketball team, Caitlin Clark lifted Iowa to a 94-87 win Monday, ending the reigning champion Tigers' hopes for a return trip to the Final Four. Reed Darcey has more on what went wrong for LSU in the critical game. Power to appoint: Gov. Jeff Landry is backing a bill that would grant him the power to appoint the chairs of Louisiana’s five higher education boards, a move that would inject politics more overtly into who oversees the state’s colleges and universities. Opponents say legislators should keep the current structure, with one calling the proposal "disgraceful" and "totally wrong." Tyler Bridges has the details. Interstate shooting: Authorities are still piecing together details surrounding a Saturday afternoon shooting on Interstate 10 in Metairie that left a Baton Rouge man wounded, the first interstate shooting in the metro area since February. Here's what we know so far. Thanks for reading, and check out all the latest news, sports and entertainment coverage from The Times-Picayune. Kasey |
