Monmouth was a top 50 defense in the country last season, and after Kentucky experienced some shooting woes against Morehead State, it was going to be interesting to see how the Cats would — or wouldn’t — bounce back on Thursday. Kentucky got big, 15/15 games from Jordan Obi and Clara Strack against Morehead State, but could the team rally together for a solid all-around win against the Hawks?
Kentucky would prevail against Monmouth, winning the game 104-49 as Kenny Brooks‘ squad moved to 2-0 on the young season.
