Highlights, box score and MVP from Kentucky beating Mount St. Mary’s

With multiple injuries, a shocking home loss to Evansville and sagging attendance, the Kentucky Wildcats were in desperate need of a shot of adrenalin when Mount St. Mary’s visited Rupp Arena on Friday night.

Fortunately, the dynamic duo of Ashton Hagans and Nick Richards were ready to pump new life into the largest home crowd of the season with a combined 35 points as the Wildcats rolled to a 82-62 win to build some much-needed momentum.

Richards simply went on a dunking spree against the undersized Mountaineers, finishing with 19 points and six rebounds.
