Hoops excel in battle of height

By Anthony Crawford

It was just another day in the office for No. 13 UK women’s basketball as the team easily handled its business against the Colorado Buffaloes at Memorial Coliseum.

Colorado was UK’s first foe with size to match the Cats, but UK overcame it to win 86-61.

The Buffaloes have six players on their roster that are 6’2” or taller and four of them played significant minutes against the Cats.

The height proved to be bothersome for UK. The Buffaloes nearly matched them on the boards as UK finished with 38 to Colorado’s 35.
