It’s difficult to see a way up from here for the Kentucky women’s basketball team.
On Thursday evening, Kentucky (9-11; 1-7 SEC) tumbled 71-68 to the Auburn Tigers (12-8; 2-7 SEC). The loss is Kentucky’s second-straight, and a significant step back from the team’s one-point loss to Mississippi State on Jan. 22. As poor as Kentucky played, someone had to score the points.
Maddie Scherr had the best Kentucky performance with 16 points, eight rebounds and three assists while shooting 6-11 from the field and 1-3 from beyond the arc. The Oregon transfer is averaging 16.
