🔼 Perfect Combination. The Reese’s Senior Bowl just announced its watch list, and 11 Kentucky football players are on it—with Devin Leary, Ray Davis, Tayvion Robinson, Eli Cox, Marques Cox, Jeremy Flax, and Kenneth Horsey on offense, and Zion Childress, Octavious Oxendine, Andru Phillips, and J.J. Weaver on defense.

The Reese’s Senior Bowl is known as being the best college football all-star game and the first stage in the NFL Draft process. The game is set for February 3 at Hancock Whitney Stadium.

🔼 New Leader. In his third year with Kentucky men's tennis, Tate Sandman has been named captain for the upcoming season. He’s a three-time ITA Scholar-Athlete and two-time All-SEC Community Service Team selection.

Head coach Cedric Kauffmann said: “He is a pillar of our program and has served his teammates and Kentucky with love, hard work, consistency, and compassion.”
