Rhyne Howard was the star coming into the afternoon and she gave the Big Blue Nation something to cheer about in her final home game at Memorial Coliseum.
Kentucky Women’s Basketball (15-11, 8-8 in SEC play) won its sixth consecutive game during Senior Day (or Rhyne Howard Day, as it was appropriately named) on Sunday, destroying the Auburn Tigers (10-17, 2-14 in SEC play) by a final score of 90-62. Howard, a senior who will leave Lexington as one of the program’s all-time greatest players, posted a season-high 32 points on a record-setting eight made 3-pointers.
