Kentucky women’s basketball is coming off the team’s biggest win of the season earlier this week: an 80-74 true road win over the Minnesota Golden Gophers on Wednesday. The victory moved the Wildcats to 7-1 on the still-young season with an important showdown against in-state rival Louisville set for this weekend in Lexington.
To preview the matchup with the (struggling) Cardinals, Kentucky head coach Kyra Elzy, sophomore Jada Walker, and graduate student Blair Green all spoke with reporters on Friday afternoon. Throughout the press conference, they touched on the importance of beating Minnesota, their thoughts on the program’s recent trip to the Bahamas, what they expect out of Louisville, and plenty more.
