Aaron Harrison scored 19 of his 28 points in the first half and No. 1 Kentucky started all freshmen for the first time in rolling to an 87-49 victory over on Sunday night.

After three games of starting four freshmen around sophomore 7-footer , coach rolled out a rookie lineup of Harrison and twin brother Andrew, , and . That look lasted just 51 seconds as Cauley-Stein replaced Lee, but the Wildcats (3-1) used other combinations of highly touted recruits.

Harrison ended up grabbing the spotlight instead of leading scorer Randle, shooting 7 of 12 from the field and making all 10 free throws. He also had four rebounds and three assists.

Randle added 10 points and 15 rebounds and Young had 10 points in the rematch of last spring’s NIT game won by Robert Morris.
