Princeton knocks Kentucky WBB out of NCAA Tournament first-round 69-62

Kentucky’s magical 10-game winning streak came to a disappointing end in the 2022 NCAA Tournament first-round, ending the college career of three-time All-American Rhyne Howard. The Wildcats came in as the 6-seed after a surprise run that saw them win the SEC Tournament less than two weeks ago, but they were ultimately downed by the Ivy league’s top competitor.

The 11-seeded Princeton Tigers knocked off Kentucky Women’s Basketball by a final score of 69-62 in the opening round on Saturday afternoon in Bloomington, IN. Howard finishes her run as a Wildcat with 17 points and eight rebounds on 4-14 shooting.
