Lady Cats Steal One AT FLORIDA

[MissKitty]

Gainesville, Fla. - Junior Kentucky guard Jenny Pfeiffer (North Vernon, Ind.) scored a season-high 23 points and the Wildcats picked up their first victory over No. 24 Florida in Gainesville since the 2000 season with an 80-65 win Thursday in the Stephen C. O'Connell Center. The Cats picked up their first SEC road win since defeating South Carolina on Jan. 25, 2004 in Columbia, S.C., and their largest victory over the Gators since 1987.
Senior forward/center Jennifer Humphrey (Memphis) led a tenacious defensive effort for the Wildcats (12-3, 2-1 Southeastern Conference) with a career-high 19 boards, while sophomore forward/center Eleia Roddy (Columbus, Ohio) posted her third career double-double with 10 points and 14 rebounds. UK's advantage on the boards was the difference in the game, as the Wildcats out-rebounded the Gators (13-3, 1-2 SEC) 55-39.

"This is a great win for us," UK Coach Mickie DeMoss said. "We haven't won here since 2000 and I thought we played hard. We handled their pressure and we really rebounded well. We knew they wouldn't go away - they kept coming at us. I am very proud of the way we played and finished the game."

Way to go Coach DeMoss and UK Hoops. This was a huge win for our women's program. Let's hope it's the 1st of many more to come.

Now if we could just sneak up on the Vols. Well I guess a girl can dream a little huh? ;D

There is another forum for this on the board. But, anyway, congratulations to the Cats, who won a good game on the road. This team certainly has improved from the 30 point loss earlier to LSU.

kt, what are you now the "thread cop"!!

Just a congratulations to the Lady Cats would be appropriate.

I did congratulate the Cats. But, isn't there a forum for this thread? It's just like how some things are reassigned to the Hot Tub. This should be reassigned where it belongs, as this thread seems to have an ulterior motive being in this forum.

IF there is an ulterior motive, I don't see it. Unless, it's the fact that it's a positive to focas on in a time of questioning some of the other aspects of Kentucky athletics. At least, that's the motivation that I'm receiving.
