Just wanted to take the time to congratulate the long list of student-athletes that will graduate Saturday from the University of Kentucky. Commencement ceremonies will be going on all day long at Rupp Arena.

Their play on the field often makes us overlook their accomplishments in the classroom, but Saturday’s graduation ceremony will be just as special for a lot of the student-athletes as any championship or win.

UK will carry the main commencement ceremony live online at www.uky.edu/Commencement beginning at 1:45 p.m. The ceremony is scheduled to start at 2 p.m.
