NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Kentucky Wildcats came to the Southeastern Conference women's tournament needing a great run to reach the NCAA Tournament.
Thanks to four wins in as many days, their berth is secure as SEC tournament champs.
“Nope! We are not on the bubble,” second-year Kentucky coach Kyra Elzy said. “We have our ticket punched! We are going!"
Dre'una Edwards hit a 3-pointer from the top of the key with 4.2 seconds left, and the Wildcats rallied from 15 points down to upset top-ranked South Carolina 64-62 on Sunday to win their first SEC tournament championship since 1982.
