Kentucky Wildcats at Florida Gators
· SEC WOMEN'S TOURNAMENT - QUARTERFINAL
92 - 69
No. 13 Kentucky women get hot, beat No. 25 Florida 92-69
Janee Thompson added 19 points for the Wildcats, who won their eighth consecutive game. Evelyn Akhator chipped in 12 points and 11 rebounds for her 12th double-double of the season and third in a row.
Kentucky advanced to play top-seeded and third-ranked South Carolina in the semifinals Saturday. If coach Matthew Mitchell's team plays like it did against Florida, the Gamecocks could have their hands full.
The fifth-seeded Wildcats (23-6) scored 33 points in a blistering second quarter and added 28 more in the third, building a 21-point lead that was too much for the No. 4 seed Gators (22-8) to overcome.
Kentucky made 13 of 20 shots (65 percent), including 4 of 5 from 3-point range, in the second and outscored Florida by 20.
Carlie Needles led Florida with 15 points. Eleanna Christinaki added 12.
