INDIANAPOLIS — Sahvir Wheeler apparently saw what was coming in the team’s NCAA Tournament opener Thursday night.
“I think the biggest challenge, obviously, is getting past the first game,” he said on the eve of Kentucky’s game against Saint Peter’s, which the Cats lost, 85-79 in overtime. “As Coach Cal says, the first game is the hardest.”
Saint Peter’s, which was playing in its first NCAA Tournament game since 2011, made sure of that.
