Kentucky Wildcats guard Davion Mintz and center Olivier Sarr have been named candidates for the 2021 Senior CLASS Award, the school announced Wednesday.
This award is for eligible student-athletes who have notable achievements in four areas of excellence: community, classroom, character and competition.
Thirty candidates have been selected for the award which focuses on the total student-athletes and encourages them to use their platform to make positive impacts as leaders in their communities.
The field will be narrowed down to 10 finalists in late February, and those names will be placed on the official ballot for voting with the media, coaches and fans.
