11.18.01 | Women's Basketball
"I thought it was a great game," said Temple head coach Dawn Staley. "I think both teams put together some runs, but Kentucky had better runs than us. I was proud off our effort. It's tough to come into a place like this and come away with a win," she continued.
Jakubowicz, a senior, also led the Owls in rebounding with eight boards on the night, while shooting fifty percent (5-10) from the field. Hamilton, a sophomore, shot 5-11 from the floor in scoring her new career high. Temple's top two scorers on the season, Athena Christoforakis and Stacey Smalls, were held to 10 points combined on 4-18 shooting.
Selia Helm led the Wildcats with a game-high 22 points on 8-14 shooting. Helm was also a perfect 6-6 from the free throw line. Rita Adams (12) and Shambrica Jones (10) also scored in double figures for Kentucky.
Next up for the Owls, a home date with Big Five city series rival Pennsylvania on Wednesday, November 28 at 7:00 p.m. at the Liacouras Center.
