Kentucky womens basketball’s new lineup struggled to come together in Texas A&M loss

Kentucky womens basketball traveled to College Station for an SEC matchup that resulted in a 74-67 loss to Texas A&M.

The Wildcats began the game without two starters after Nyah Leveretter tore her ACL and Robyn Benton was benched following an ejection. Coming into the matchup Benton was Kentucky’s leading scorer with 16.5 points per game.

In their replacement, Kyra Elzy started Emma King and Adebola Adeyeye.

Kentucky struggled defensively around the basket, playing four guards on the court at once in Leveretter’s absence.

The Aggies outrebounded Kentucky 46-29, rallying for 14 offensive rebounds for 12 second chance points in Kentucky.
