With the tournament wrapped up, our last intramural player of the week is big boy, Austin Uhrhan. Uhrhan didn’t fill up the stat sheet but it didn’t matter as he sunk a game winning corner three to bring the championship home for the red team.
Our third weekly intramural player of the week is star soccer manager Tyler Mike. The man with two first names managed to put up an impressive 30 points.
This week’s intramural basketball player of the week is none other than Louisville football commit Micah Carter. However, there is some controversy with this week's player.
Filling the shoes of Mekhi Smith, Cole Sherman and the rest of last year's regional semifinal team is no small task. This year, the Tiger basketball team is predominantly filling the voids with young talent that is being fostered by senior leadership. Although they lost a lot of production from last year, the team's goals remain the same–getting to Rupp Arena.
The Tigers are looking to grow their talent from the ground up. The twitter hashtag created by varsity assistant coach Bryan Just for Tiger Basketball of #FarmingNotHunting is the entirely new mindset...
The time is now. March is here! And everyone knows what that means. Arguably the most famous and exciting sporting event is just about to be underway — March Madness.
As the big month of March has arrived, the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament is soon to begin. Coming off of one of the absolute worst seasons in Kentucky basketball history and an absence from March Madness, us Wildcat fans have been itching for a redemption season. With a current record of 23-6 and a ranking of 7th, this team has already blown the team of last year out of the water. The team has obvious stars and fan favorites in Oscar Tshiebwe, a dominant rebounder, defender, and offensive force, TyTy Washington, elite shooting guard and point scorer, and Kellan Grady, three point specialist.
Cole Sherman has been playing basketball all his life and his hard work is really showing his senior year. He is having a great season and has been taking ankles, draining threes, and playing lockdown defense. Cole has been an influential voice for his team and a leader in the student body.
