To be frank, Kentucky Women’s Basketball suffered an embarrassing loss on Sunday afternoon.
The No. 19 (8-5) Kentucky Wildcats lost 84-58 to the No. 5 Tennessee Volunteers (16-1). The loss comes just a week after UK fell to No. 1 South Carolina in a 74-54 defeat. Further, the contest drops Kentucky to 1-2 in conference play and ninth in the SEC standings.
As disappointing as Kentucky’s performance was, Rhyne Howard can’t be blamed. The 6-foot-2 guard dropped 24 points, five rebounds and three assists. She shot 11-21 from the field.
