BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Andre Stringer scored 16 points and LSU coach Trent Johnson won his 200th game as the Tigers defeated Centenary 78-36 on Wednesday night.

Stringer matched his season-high with four 3-pointers and Malcolm White added 14 points and seven rebounds for LSU.

Johnson, who is 200-151 in his career, coached at Nevada and Stanford before joining the Tigers in 2008.

Sparked by two 3-pointers from Aaron Dotson, LSU jumped out to an 8-1 lead in the first three minutes.

With Leo Davis, Logan Lowery and Maxx Nakwaash knocking down 3-pointers, Centenary pulled to 12-10.

The Tigers then went on an 18-5 run over the next seven minutes to take control.

Davis led the Gents with 10 points.
