Fresh off a big win over the ranked Louisville Cardinals on Saturday, Kentucky women’s basketball was back in action Monday night. This time, they took on Purdue-Fort Wayne, and they’d win, but it wouldn’t come easily.
The Wildcats fell behind early, and trailed by five points at the half. In the second half, however, Kentucky’s talent edge showed, and they outscored Purdue FW by 17 points to come away with a 79 – 67 victory.

Georgia Amoore once again led the Cats in scoring with 23 points. She added 7 assists. Dazia Lawrence also had a big game, adding 21 points on 5-of-8 shooting from three-point range. Teonni Key had a double-double with 12 points and 10 rebounds.
Kentucky is now 5 – 0 on the season, and are certainly gaining national attention. They’ll get a bit of a break now, with their next game not coming until November 26th against Arizona State. For now, it’s another night of celebration for fans of Kentucky women’s basketball.
