Providence College men's basketball will play the University of Kentucky in the first round of the 2023 NCAA Tournament.
The Friars found out their tournament fate on Selection Sunday after losing in the first round of the Big East Tournament.
Providence is the eleventh seed, while Kentucky is the sixth seed.
The game will be played on Friday in Greensboro, North Carolina.
Meantime, Coach Ed Cooley has not spoken about several media reports that suggest Georgetown was interested in hiring Cooley. Cooley for his part had signed a contract extension at the start of the season.
