Baylor beats Kentucky in Big 12-SEC Challenge

Kenny Chery, the junior college transfer who is Baylor's primary newcomer, scored six of his 18 points in a go-ahead run to help lead the Bears to a 67-62 victory over Kentucky late Friday night in the Dallas Cowboys' massive stadium.

The young Wildcats (7-2) had a 50-41 lead when Julius Randle, one of three Kentucky freshmen playing in their home state, had a slam dunk with 13 minutes left.

Baylor (8-1) responded with a 15-5 run when Chery came up big. The point guard's jumper started the run and his two free throws with 6 minutes left made it 56-55 - and the Bears never trailed again.
