UK Hoops fall in Elite 8...

Similar to the men's team loss to West Virginia, the UK Hoops squad stormed out to an early lead, only to watch as their opponents rallied to go ahead by halftime. Oklahoma opened the second half on a 15-5 run, then scored 11 straight points to jump ahead 69-50 with 6:30 left. The Wildcats just couldn't get enough shots to fall, or defensive stops, to make a comeback.

Victoria Dunlap had 31 points and 12 rebounds to lead Kentucky (28-8), which was seeking its first trip to the Final Four. The Wildcats stunned top-seeded Nebraska to reach their first regional final since 1982, but they couldn't complete the Big 12 sweep in Kansas City.

Still, we congratulate UK Hoops for a historic season. It's awesome to think where this program is heading in the future.
