KWC Hoops Visit Rupp Arena Panther basketball took on the University of Kentucky in an exhibition game at Rupp Arena Oct. 29, a memorable experience for fans, players and coaches. The Office of Alumni Relations hosted a pre-game reception, and alumni and friends enjoyed great food and even better company. The Panthers put up a good fight with a final score of 95-72 (L). The game marked a significant milestone for Joel Utley '74, who entered his 61st year of broadcasting for men's basketball – a national record. The SEC Network aired a portion of Joel's broadcast during the game, icing on the cake on a fun-filled evening.

Members of the Senior Committee have been working with the Alumni Association Board of Directors to organize their Countdown to Commencement social events, plan their Senior Dinner and organize the fundraising and design of the senior gift. The committee members also enjoyed dinner with members of the alumni board at the Country Club of Owensboro, an expression of gratitude for their service on the student-led committee.
