LEXINGTON - Former Kentucky star Sean Woods will bring his Southern basketball team to Rupp Arena in December in the first of a five-year series the Wildcats will play against SWAC teams.
The five-game series, dubbed the Unity Series, is designed to promote the historically Black colleges and universities of the SWAC and "raise funds to provide opportunities for students at their institutions."
“I am really proud of our leadership for identifying an opportunity to take what we do on the basketball court and leverage it into an annual weeklong event that will have a major impact on HBCUs and their students,” Kentucky coach John Calipari said in a news release.
