🔼 Grand Finale. That’s how you put a bow on the regular season!

Otega Oweh scored 20 of his 22 points in the second half as the 19th-ranked Kentucky men’s hoops team took down 15th -ranked Missouri, 91-83, on the road on Saturday in SEC action.

UK also got 17 points from Koby Brea, while Andrew Carr had 16 points and 12 rebounds, his third double-double of the season. Amari Williams had 14 points and eight rebounds for the Cats.

🔼 Hog Tied. Behind season high scores on three apparatus, outright wins on all five individual events, and a perfect ten from Creslyn Brose, the ninth-ranked Kentucky gymnastics squad matched the third highest score in program history and bested its previous season high by over six tenths in a 197.925-197.725 senior night win over No. 16 Arkansas.

It was a historic night for the Cats, who—in addition to tying the program’s third highest team score—set the program’s third best floor score with a 49.725, tied the program’s third best beam score with a 49.525, and tied the program’s ninth highest vault score with a 49.425.

🔼 Grand Opening. No better way to kick off SEC action than a nice little home sweep.

The 23rd-ranked Kentucky softball team did exactly that, taking all three showdowns with Mizzou to extend their win streak to seven and improve to 17-6 on the spring.

Kicking off the SEC opening weekend for both teams, the Cats rattle off back-to-back victories of 6-4 and 5-4, before finishing off the sweep on Sunday, 9-6 over the Tigers.

🔼 Three Of A Kind. What’s better than a winning weekend? A three-win weekend, of course.

That’s what the Kentucky Stunt team put together as they rolled to victories over Central Arkansas (24-0), Missouri State (23-3) and Maryville (21-5) to 14-0 this season.
