Author Topic: UK vs Vandy notes and numbers catmandoo Player Member # 1284 posted 02-15-2016 11:00 AM                     Game Notes Kentucky used the starting lineup of Janee Thompson, Makayla Epps, Maci Morris, Batouly Camara and Evelyn Akhator for the third straight game. UK is 1-1 this season when using that starting combination. Kentucky lead it early 10-2 behind an 8-0 run, before the Commodores scored 10 of the last 14 points of the first period to cut UK’s lead to 14-12 at the end of the first 10 minutes. The Wildcats trailed only once in the first half, 17-16, after a Vanderbilt 3-point. But UK responded by ending the half on a 12-2 run to grab a 28-19 lead at halftime. Janee Thompson paced Kentucky during that stretch with two 3-pointer. VU only scored seven points in the second period. The seven points scored by Vanderbilt in the second period tied the fewest points scored against Kentucky in a quarter this season. The Wildcats also limited Auburn to just seven points when the two teams met on Jan. 3 in Auburn, Ala. Kentucky forced Vanderbilt into 16 turnovers in the first half and scored 15 points off those turnovers. The Wildcats only committed six turnovers. Individual Notes Alexis Jennings paced Kentucky with 18 points and nine rebounds. Jennings 18 points was the second most she has scored this season and the most in conference play. The sophomore post player went 9-of-13 from the field in the game. Janee Thompson scored 15 points in the game on 5-of-10 shooting with two assists and 3-of-5 3-pointers. Thompson tied her season high in 3-pointers made, a feat she has accomplished in back-to-back games. The senior guard has scored in double figures in five of her last six games. Makayla Epps scored seven points in the game, but recorded an impressive six assists. Epps has recorded five or more assists in 10 games this season. Evelyn Akhator posted 10 points and six rebounds in the game on 5-of-11 shooting. Taylor Murray went 3-of-9 from the field in the game with eight points and three assists, adding four steals.
