After being upset on the road against Texas A&M, it was more than imperative that Kentucky got a win against Arkansas at home on Sunday. The month or so stretch to end the regular season is brutal, and the Cats will need every win they can get,

Kenny Brooks always tells his roster that “life is 10% what happens to you, 90% is how you deal with it,” and the No. 11 Kentucky women’s basketball team put that into action in its 89-69 bounce-back victory against Arkansas on Sunday afternoon at Memorial Coliseum.

Arkansas guard Izzy Higginbottom led all scorers with 32 points in the Hogs’ 89-69 loss at No. 11 Kentucky (17-2, 6-1 SEC) on Sunday. Higginbottom returned to double figures for the first time in two games and notched her second SEC game with at least 30 points.
