Good morning. It’s almost Caturday! Two things you need to know for tomorrow’s football game: it will be streamed exclusively on SEC Network+ and ESPN+, and the free poster giveaway will be at Gate Four at Kroger Field.

What else are we mixing into today’s Brew?

🏌️ Men’s golf ties for 6th
⚽️ Women’s soccer shuts out Belmont
🔵 And much, much more!

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Round One. The men’s golf team just completed its first tournament, and two Cats landed in the top 20. Alex Goff tied for second with a total of 213, making him even to par. Campbell Kremer finished four over par with a total of 217 to land him tied for sixteenth. Overall, the Wildcats tied for sixth with a total of 871, +19.

🔼 Back-to-Back-to-Back. That’s three consecutive shutouts for women’s soccer, putting them at 5-0-1 overall this season. The Cats scored three goals against Belmont. The first goal was scored by Úlfa Úlfarsdóttir, her first of the season, and happened in the first minute of the match.

The women decided to start and finish the second half with a goal. Maya Lacognato scored in the first three minutes with a crazy cross-angle shot, and Ella Kane finished it off by cutting around defenders for a quick shot up the middle.

🤔 BIG BLUE TRIVIA

Forever a Cat. Speaking of Alex Goff, he has been with Kentucky men’s golf for his whole college career. Currently a graduate student, Goff has started in all 10 events for the Wildcats for a couple of years.

Today’s question—how many years did Goff start in all 10 events?
