Kentucky Women’s Basketball loss against Louisville was a disappointment. Yet, perhaps even more disappointing was senior Rhyne Howard’s performance.
On Sunday afternoon, No. 14 Kentucky (6-3) lost to the No. 7 Louisville Cardinals (8-1). For the second game in a row, Howard underperformed. The two-time SEC Player of the Year recorded nine points and seven rebounds during the Wildcats’ loss to the Cardinals. Howard was inefficient, shooting 3-13 from the field and 1-6 from beyond the arc.
Despite averaging nearly double the number of points as Louisville’s leading scorer, Howard wasn’t even one of Kentucky’s top three scorers on Sunday.
