  "account": "In a thrilling Ally Tip Off at Spectrum Center, No. 14 Kentucky Wildcats women's basketball team dominated No. 25 North Carolina State Wolfpack, winning 93-78 in their third collegiate game. Ajsa Sivka, a 6-foot-5 guard from Slovenia, led the charge with an impressive 32 points, matching a program record with eight three-pointers. Her shooting accuracy was exceptional, sinking 11 of 17 shots and 8 of 12 from beyond the arc. The Wildcats outscored N.C. State 27-20 in the second quarter, which propelled them to a 56-44 halftime lead. Sophomore Khamil Pierre led the Wolfpack with 34 points, while Zoe Brooks contributed 13 points and an impressive 11-for-13 foul line shooting. Despite a strong defensive effort, N.C. State couldn't match Kentucky's shooting prowess, shooting just 3 for 11 from distance. Kentucky's overall shooting efficiency was solid at 53%, outscoring the Wolfpack 46% to 30% from beyond the arc. Looking ahead, Kentucky will host Evansville on Wednesday, while North Carolina State will face off against Liberty.",
