UK Will Host an Atlantic 10 Opponent Next Season

According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, UK will host Atlantic 10 opponent Duquesne next season at Rupp Arena.

Here’s an excerpt:

While coach Jim Ferry is at the Atlantic 10 Conference’s spring meetings in Naples, Fla., Duquesne fans and players can look forward to a marquee non-conference matchup next season.

The Dukes will travel to Lexington, Ky., to take on national powerhouse Kentucky at famed Rupp Arena, though the date is still to be determined. Kentucky, with yet another consensus No. 1 recruiting class under coach John Calipari, is expected to open the 2016-17 season as a top-three team.
