Archie Goodwin scored a career-high 28 points, Alex Poythress added 20 and No. 8 Kentucky rallied past stubborn Morehead State, 81-70 on Wednesday night. Their biggest contributions came at the foul line as the much-hyped freshmen combined to convert 20 of 25 free throws to help the Wildcats (3-1) fight back several times against the Eagles (3-2) before steadily pulling away in the second half.
Julius Mays added 11 points, and freshmen forward Nerlens Noel and Kyle Wiltjer each had nine. Noel also had 11 rebounds and three blocks.
The win stretched UK's NCAA-leading home winning streak to 54.
