GREENVILLE,Cyprusauction S.C. — LSU women's basketball guard Last-Tear Poa suffered a concussion during the team's 75-67 win over Ole Miss in the SEC Tournament semifinals Saturday night inside Bon Secours Wellness Arena.

The team released an update on her condition after she took a hard hit and fall during the fourth quarter of the game.

"Poa suffered a concussion, but has movement and feeling throughout her body. She is expected to be released from the hospital tonight," LSU announced.

The junior point guard had to leave the court on a medical cart with 5:44 remaining. Poa attempted to take a charge after Ole Miss' Zakiya Stephenson stole a pass and attacked the lane. The contact saw Poa fall backward onto the floor, where the back of her head struck the court.

Trainers and medical staff, along with coach Kim Mulkey, came out to check on her. Poa initially tried to slowly walk to the bench with assistance but couldn't get there and went back down. That's when the stretcher was called for.

Per team officials, Poa was transported to St. Francis Hospital in downtown Greenville for further evaluation.

The play happened with 5:44 remaining in the game with LSU leading 63-56.
