The Kentucky Wildcats are back in action this Friday when they host Indiana University of Pennsylvania.
IUP, located in Indiana, Pennsylvania, will mark UK’s second and final exhibition contest. Led by head coach Joe Lombardi, the Crimson Hawks are coming off a season in which they won their eighth Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Western Division regular season title, finishing the year with a 22-8 overall record, but they missed out on at-large bid to the NCAA Division II tournament appearance.
IUP returns three starters from last year’s squad, including 2017 preseason All-Americans Jacobo Diaz and Dante Lombardi.
The Crimson Hawks have played nine NCAA Division I men’s basketball teams, going 1–11 in 12 games played all scheduled as exhibition games. IUP’s only win vs Division I opponent is against Bucknell on a game-winning three pointer.
