After a big 11-1 midweek win over Belmont on Tuesday night coach Mike Smith and No.17 Ole Miss softball (25-10, 5-4) were back in SEC action Friday night. The Rebels travelled to face No.22 Kentucky (24-13, 8-5) in Lexington and were hoping to continue the roll they were on last weekend against the No.6 Florida Gators. The Wildcats would have something to say about it in game-one.
Kentucky got on the board first with 2 runs in the bottom of the first to take the 2-0 lead. The Wildcats then added 4 runs in the bottom of the second to extend their lead to 6-0.
