NCAA grants immediate eligibility to Robyn Benton

The NCAA has granted immediate eligibility to Kentucky women’s basketball guard Robyn Benton, the school announced Tuesday.

Benton, who was an All-SEC Freshman Team selection with the Auburn Tigers before averaging double-digit points as a sophomore, transferred to Kentucky in April.

“We are so excited for Robyn,” said Kentucky interim head coach Kyra Elzy in a press release. “From the first day she stepped on campus, she has worked hard to improve her game. What I have been most impressed with is Robyn and Jazmine have both elevated the intensity and competitiveness of our practices.
