Reid Travis steps up early, propels cold-shooting Cats to victory

When the Kansas Jayhawks came into Rupp Arena on Saturday, everyone knew it would be a battle.

Whether they were rattled or just not on early, Kentucky’s back court players could not get their shots to fall early.

Thankfully, Reid Travis decided to take over and lead the Wildcats to their biggest win of the season.

Travis dominated the glass early, alongside PJ Washington, who did his part as well. Travis had 12 of Kentucky’s 30 points in the first half. He also pulled down six of his 12 rebounds in the opening period, with four of those coming on the offensive end.
