Epps, 1st UK player to score a triple-double since Chris Mills in 1988

[UKvisitor]

He is the only male to do so at UK. (hope that changes this year, I digress)

"Anthony Epps’ daughter made her own kind of UK history on Wednesday night getting a triple double (with a quarter to go) to lift No. 13 UK over Morehead State 112-57 at Memorial Coliseum."

21 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists and no fouls.

"Epps said her father, a star point guard for Kentucky who won a national championship in 1996, likes to tease her that she’s matched him with a Sweet Sixteen title, but she’s still short a national title.

"I can’t wait to go get to my phone," Epps laughed, saying she was going to mention first: "You ain’t never got a triple-double."

Few have. The only women’s player in school history to do it was Leslie Nichols, who had 18 points, 13 rebounds and 11 steals against Louisville in 1986. Chris Mills remains the only men’s player at UK to do it with his 19 points, 10 assists and 10 rebounds in 1988."

"I would rather not score at all as long as we keep winning," Epps said. "As long as we keep winning, I’m going to be fine with that."

She has had some trouble in the past: Kentucky’s Epps: ‘It was time for me to grow up’

I think some players have came close since..anyone know? It's really difficult in the college game. Knight, Rondo, cousins, wall, bledsoe, and surely davis (he's almost had a quadruple double) have gotten atleast one in the NBA

Quite a feat for that young lady if she did that.

Congrats to Makayla and the women's team!

Derrick Jasper came close a couple times in his short UK career.
