Wildcats' Strategic Execution


The Wildcats demonstrated exceptional skill throughout the game, leading in every quarter with scores of 23, 21, 13, and finally 21 points in each respective period. Their offensive strategy was well-rounded; they shot 47 percent from the field and an impressive 35 percent from beyond the arc. Defensively, Kentucky was just as dominant; they amassed three blocks and four steals while drawing eighteen fouls against Georgia.


Georgia Amoore led the charge for Kentucky with an outstanding performance that included scoring 24 points and dishing out eight assists. Clara Strack followed closely with a double-double of her own—25 points and twelve rebounds—highlighting her significant presence on both ends of the floor.


Lady Bulldogs' Effort


Despite their loss, the Georgia Lady Bulldogs showed resilience. They managed to score more progressively across quarters: starting with four points in Q1 but finishing strong with twenty-two points in Q4. Their effort was evident through nine steals and ten assists as a team but ultimately fell short against Kentucky's robust defense.


Georgia struggled offensively throughout most of the game but found some rhythm towards its end; however, their shooting percentages (37 percent from field goals) couldn't match up to Kentucky's efficiency.
