The Ole Miss women’s basketball program secured a win against No. 14 Kentucky, 72-60, on Thursday night, ending a six-game losing streak.
Ole Miss finally put the pieces together after struggling to finish strong on the court, costing the team loss after loss. The Rebels have lost their SEC games by an average of 6.6 points per game and struggled on the defensive end this season.
“I’m extremely grateful for the win, extremely grateful for our players having resilience and not breaking,” head coach Yolette McPhee-McCuin said. “The focus for the last couple of days was on finishing, and I thought we did a good job doing that tonight.
