BIG THREE CHAMPIONSHIP: Game 18


Game 18 of the Big Three Championship features two teams with many of the same players. The #6 1993 Kentucky Wildcats face off against the #7 1992 Kentucky Wildcats after a stunning upset. The ’93 Cats won their opening round game 70%-30% over #3 ’86 Louisville. Jamal Mashburn dominated the Cards scoring a game high 25 points. Travis Ford knocked down a couple of late 3-pointers to widen the margin of victory. The ’92 Cats pulled away late from a tough ’87 Indiana team. The Hoosiers led most of the game but faltered midway through the second half when both Keith Smart and Steve Alford picked up their fourth fouls and had to sit on the bench for a while. During that stretch, John Pelphrey and Richie Farmer drained numerous 3-point shots to put the Cats into the lead. Once Smart and Alford returned, they were shut down and the Cats pulled away, winning 63%-37%.
