The Kentucky Wildcats have played North Carolina, UNC-Asheville, UNC-Charlotte and UNC-Greensboro, but never UNC Wilmington. That’s set to change this winter, as the Seahawks are set to make their way to Lexington for their first-ever battle inside of Rupp Arena.
According to college basketball analyst and bracketologist Rocco Miller, Kentucky will host UNC Wilmington on Saturday, December 2 as part of the program’s non-conference schedule.
The Seahawks finished the 2022-23 season with a 24-10 overall record and 12-6 in conference play inside the Colonial Athletic Association, losing in the league tournament finals to No.
