After hosting University Heights basketball star KyKy Tandy for a recruiting visit late last month, UK’s coaches let him know that they’d like to see him on the court sometime soon.
Conflicts with their own schedule prevented the Cats from checking out Tandy through the first two games of the 2nd Region Tournament, but — the coaches said — if University Heights made it to the region finals, someone from UK would be there.
Tandy and the Blazers did just that, rolling over Hopkins Central and Union County last week to earn a matchup with Christian County, a trip to the Sweet Sixteen in Rupp Arena on the line.
