The LSU Tigers coach, known for her viral looks, faced the Iowa University Hawkeyes.
Kim Mulkey led the LSU Tigers women’s basketball team against the Iowa Hawkeyes in the Elite 8 round of the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament on Monday in Albany, N.Y., making a vibrant statement.
The head coach, famous for her fashion choices on the sidelines, donned a green power suit that contrasted with her zebra-print pumps.
On Saturday, Mulkey caught attention with her sequined suit, which featured a whimsical pattern in yellow, orange, blue, green, black, and gold. The coach led her team to victory against the UCLA Bruins during the women’s tournament’s Sweet 16 round.

During the championship game against Iowa University in 2023, Mulkey wore a sequined outfit inspired by LSU’s mascot, the tiger.
The animal-print sequined suit was designed by Nadine Merabi and ultimately became Mulkey’s victory outfit.

She has won five four NCAA championships, including three as the coach for Baylor University, and Sunday she won her fourth as coach of LSU.
