Head To Head


  • This is the first meeting between St Peter’s & Kentucky

St Peter’s Form


St Peter’s form heading into March Madness does not suggest an upset is on the cards here.

They finished fifth in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference with a 10-8 record.

They then made a brief appearance in the MAAC tournament, bowing out after just two games.

The Peacocks made straightforward work of Rider in the first round, beating the team who finished bottom of the regular season standings 75-60.

However, they stalled offensively in their next outing, losing 52-47 to a Fairfield team who ended the regular season with a .389 record. 

Kentucky Form


Kentucky are a top-10 team heading into March Madness and will be eager to make a strong start.

The Wildcats finished the regular season with a 14-4 record in the SEC, and that meant they finished second, a game behind Auburn.

They won eight of their final 10 games and made it nine wins in 11 outings to make a winning start to the conference tournament.

Kentucky beat Vanderbilt 77-71 in their opener, but came up short against #9 Tennessee in the next round.

The Wildcats had beaten the Volunteers in the regular season, but could not repeat that win as they fell to a 69-62 defeat.
