March Madness inspired me to place this Geo Art to encourage the Cat's in the NCAA Tournament. This series is located in the John C. Williams Wildlife Management Area and incorporates 6 existing caches along with 47 new ones to hike and find. Look at the map and zoom to see the GO UK. Bring a writing tool to sign the log sheet.
UK was the first to 1000 wins and now the first to 2000 wins.
For the first time in college basketball, a school has reached the 2,000 mark. Kentucky, as the rightful owner of the winningest record in college basketball, is the first to reach the hallowed mark.
The journey spanned 11 decades, seven national titles and the most storied index of legends any program has ever amassed. Every decade, year, player and team had its own story and its own legacy.
That's what makes 2,000 wins so special. No matter what win we choose to talk about - the school's first championship, Jack Givens' 41 points in the 1978 championship game, the LSU comeback in 1994, the national title game in 1996 - they all equal the same and make up 2,000. Without each one, Kentucky wouldn't be the program that it is. It's marked a history of consistent greatness.
From the beginning to the end, Kentucky has been the game's best team. Two-thousand is just a number to mark it. The real achievement is what it took to get there.
The 2000th win was at Rupp Arena against Drexel on 12/21/2009. Final score was 88-44.
