LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Kentucky will host Southern this season in men's basketball to tip off a five-year Unity Series during which the Wildcats will play teams from the Southwestern Athletic Conference, a league comprising historically Black colleges and universities.
There will be a week of activities leading up to the Wildcats' Dec. 7 meeting against the Louisiana school at Rupp Arena.
Rock Oliver, Kentucky's associate athletic director for diversity, equity and inclusion, said in a release that the series featuring HBCUs "will provide those universities with a spotlight on the biggest stage in college basketball."
