Kentucky claws back to defeat Arkansas 70-66

Tyler Herro sure doesn’t.

When the team needed an energy boost to wake them up for this 9 o’clock tip-off against the Arkansas Razorbacks, the Kentucky star freshman proved to be exactly what the Cats needed.

Ankle strain and all, Herro led all scorers with 29 points on a ridiculous 9-10 shooting overall and 5-6 from three. He also added four rebounds, three assists, one block, and two steals in the comeback victory.

Outside of Herro, freshman forward Keldon Johnson was the only Wildcat to finish in double figures, ending the night with 13 points on 5-14 shooting, six rebounds, three assists, and one block.
