The game started off how you would want if you are a Kentucky fan: The Cats won the tip, and then Asia Boone nailed a 3, and Tonie Morgan followed suit on the next possession, followed by another Asia Boone bomb. A Teonni Key hook forced the Aggies into a timeout early, the Cats were up 11-0, just 3 minutes into the game.
As is this Cats season, just when things start looking up, something bad happens. On a seemingly benign play, Clara Strack went down and was left limping as she was favoring her left knee. She went to the bench and was looked at by the training staff. She didn’t leave the bench area, so it looks like the Cats avoided disaster. She checked back in a few moments later, unfortunately for the Aggies.
In the first quarter, Kentucky outscored Texas A&M 27-5…
