In the end, Kentucky fell 87-64 to the Game****************s, ending their run in the SEC Tournament. The Cats will return to Lexington with a 23-10 overall record.

A win over South Carolina would have almost certainly ensured that Kentucky would host in the NCAA Tournament, but following the defeat, it remains uncertain if that will happen.

Clara Strack‘s career outing, but Teonni Key played a gigantic role in Kentucky’s 76-61 win over Georgia on Thursday.

Kentucky lost by five to Georgia back on Jan. 24, and that marked the last game of a six-game stretch in which Key was out with her elbow injury. If you’ll remember, that game got moved a day earlier due to the big winter storm, and Kenny Brooks even made it apparent that Key might have been able to suit up against the Lady Bulldogs if the game were played the following day as originally scheduled.

Forty days later, Kentucky got a chance to not only get their get-back on Georgia, but to also advance in the SEC Tournament. For both of those reasons, Thursday’s game was massively important, and having Key back for this one was a huge plus.

In 34 minutes of action, the 6-foot-5 forward had 14 points and 12 rebounds while making six of her 10 shots. Georgia head coach Katie Abrahamson-Henderson even described her as a “difference-maker” to KSR following the game. “I think Key was huge,” she added.

On Jan. 24, Kentucky lost to Georgia 72-67 at home with Teonni Key out. Fast forward to Thursday, the two teams met again in the second round of the SEC Tournament with a spot in the Quarterfinals on the line. For the Cats, a win over the Lady Bulldogs would also most likely put them one step closer to having homecourt advantage through the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament.

Kentucky managed the win over Georgia, walking away with a 76-61 victory to move on yet again in Greenville. Now, Kenny Brooks‘ team sits at 23-9 on the year, matching their win total from his first season at the helm in Lexington.

Georgia, clearly, wanted to make it a physical basketball game early on, and to their credit, they were also crashing the board hard in doing that. Through the first 10 minutes of play, they had four offensive rebounds which led to some second chance points. However, for Kentucky, Clara Strack had 13 points with two made threes as the Cats led 20-16 heading into the second quarter.

Not only was it the final game of the regular season, but it was also Senior Day with the No. 3 South Carolina... Kenny Brooks era thus far in Lexington, but it would also be a massive momentum booster with postseason play looming large.

Kentucky, unfortunately, couldn’t manage the victory, falling 60-56 to South Carolina. The Cats finish the regular season with a 21-9 (8-8 SEC) record.

Kentucky had an early 9-7 lead in this one, holding serve on the defense end of the court to start, but things changed quickly. To end the first quarter, South Carolina was shooting 62% from the field. Kentucky was having a hard time against the Game****************s’ defense later on in the period, and after one, it was 19-13 South Carolina.

Fortunately for Kentucky, they got the 63-56 win over Auburn, handling business on the road to move to 21-8 (8-7 SEC) on the season.

Kentucky got out to a fast start on The Plains, and for the most part, Amelia Hassett was the reason why. After the Tigers scored the first bucket of the contest, a Kentucky 10-0 run highlighted by back-to-back threes from Hassett gave the Cats a quick 10-2 lead to start the ballgame. Through one, Kentucky led 19-11.

And get the win they did, as Kentucky beat Texas A&M 75-55 to snap a two-game skid and move to 19-7 (6-6 SEC) on the year.

Tonie Morgan had five points and five assists through the first quarter of play, and her third of the night was a record-breaker. With her 214th assist of the season, Morgan set the Kentucky single season assists record, breaking the record that Georgia Amoore set a year ago. Morgan did so through five less games.

That didn’t happen, however, as Kentucky lost 64-53 to the Longhorns, falling to 18-7 overall and 5-6 in the SEC. The Cats have now lost five of their last six games.

Kentucky shot north of 50% in the first quarter, but on the other end of the floor, they allowed Texas to shoot 71%. The Longhorns made 10 of their first 14 shots to start the game, and Kentucky needed to buckle up defensively if they wanted to keep pace with the No. 4 team in the country. Through one, Kentucky trailed 23-19.
