John Wall had 23 points, including seven straight in the second half to give the Wildcats the lead for good, and No. 2 Kentucky overcame an 11-point deficit Friday in beating Alabama 73-67 in the Southeastern Conference tournament quarterfinals. The win gave Kentucky its 12th 30-win season – the most by any school – and the Wildcats’ first since 2003 when they went 32-4. It’s also the fifth straight such season for John Calipari and seventh overall to tie him with Connecticut’s Jim Calhoun for third-most among coaches.
