BATON ROUGE - The LSU Board of Supervisors approved a contract extension for LSU head softball coach Beth Torina as well as other athletic contract moves on Friday with no objections.

Torina's contract was extended for two more years and will now run through August 31, 2028, with no change in annual salary or supplemental pay.

Torina had two years remaining on her existing contract that was set to expire in 2026.
