The Kentucky Wildcats and Louisville Cardinals entered Sunday’s clash undefeated and looking for a major signature win in a battle of top-15 teams.
Both teams fought valiantly for four quarters, but in the end, Matthew Mitchell’s bunch came up a point short, falling 67-66 to the 7th-ranked Cardinals.
Rhyne Howard had a chance to win the game, but her three-pointer as time expired was no good. It would have capped off a monster game for Howard, who recorded 26 points, four rebounds, two assists and two steals.
Tatyana Wyatt and Sabrina Haines each finished with 12 points.
