Kentucky has fired women's basketball coach Kyra Elzy after consecutive losing seasons that followed the Wildcats' first Southeastern Conference Tournament championship since 1982. The school announced Elzy's dismissal in a news release on Monday. Kentucky fell 76-62 to Tennessee in the SEC Tournament to conclude an 11-20 finish, including 4-12 in league play during the regular season. Elzy was 61-60 in four seasons and 8-3 in the conference tournament but Kentucky failed to reach the quarterfinal round in two seasons since winning the title.
