NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - John Wall sank a pair of free throws
with 20 seconds left and had a big blocked shot to send No. 2
Kentucky to a 58-56 win over No. 17 Vanderbilt on Saturday night.
Kentucky (26-1, 11-1 SEC) grabbed a two-game lead over
Vanderbilt in the SEC East and dealt the Commodores (20-6, 9-3)
their first home loss this season.
Wall's free throws gave the Wildcats a 57-53 lead, but John
Jenkins answered with a 3-pointer to pull Vanderbilt within a
point.
Kentucky's Eric Bledsoe missed a pair of free throws, but Wall
responded by blocking a 3-pointer by Jenkins on the other end and
grabbing the ball.
He made one of two free throws for a two-point lead with 2.5
seconds to play, and the Commodores had one more chance.
A.J. Ogilvy caught a long in-bounds pass, but his runner in the
lane bounced off the rim at the buzzer.
