Kentucky women’s basketball (11-17, 4-10) was annihilated by No. 1 South Carolina (27-0, 14-0) on Sunday afternoon 103-55.

This was the second meeting between the two teams as the Wildcats already made a trip over to Columbia, S.C., on Jan. 15 where they were brutally defeated 98-36.

“Obviously we didn’t have a great showing in Columbia, which we were really disappointed and embarrassed about, and today it was just proving to ourselves that we had more,” Kentucky head coach Kyra Elzy said.

Kentucky entered the first game between the two on a two-game losing streak with back-to-back losses to Tennessee and Vanderbilt, but in the second go around the Cats had a small stride of momentum as it recently picked up back-to-back wins over Florida and Mississippi State.
