The Cats will first host the Saints of Thomas More College on Friday, October 27. Thomas More went 22-7 last season and won the Presidents’ Athletic Conference.
Then on the following Friday, November 3, the Colonels of Centre College will get their shot at the Wildcats. Centre went 14-11 in 2016-17 and finished in second place in the Southern Athletic Association.
It will be the first time either of the two schools travel to Rupp Arena to play Kentucky in an exhibition game.
The tradition of playing in-state teams in the preseason continues!
