Saturday at noon will provide a second-consecutive test for the Kentucky Wildcats.
After prevailing in a 78-61 win over UNC Greensboro last weekend, the Wildcats will take their talents to Madison Square Garden for a matchup with the Seton Hall Pirates in the Citi Hoops Classic.
The Wildcats and Pirates don’t have much history, as they’ve only faced each other twice all-time. The first meeting came in 1981, when Kentucky took the UKIT Championship in a 98-74 win. The most recent matchup wasn’t much later, coming via a 63-60 Pirates victory in 1988 during the Great Alaska Shootout.
