The Kentucky Wildcats baseball team, guided by head coach Nick Mingione, is preparing for a pivotal test in the NCAA Tournament as they head to Morgantown, West Virginia, to meet Wake Forest at noon.
Seeded third in the Morgantown Regional, Kentucky will face the top‑seeded Demon Deacons, a team they have never beaten in postseason play; the two programs have met only four times before, each ending in a Wake Forest victory.
The game will be televised on ESPN2 and streamed via Fubo, the ESPN app, and ESPN+, giving fans multiple ways to follow the action.
A Chance for a First
If the Wildcats can pull off the upset, it will mark the first time under Mingione that Kentucky advances past a regional they are not hosting, a milestone that would underscore the program’s rapid rise.
The atmosphere in Morgantown is expected to be electric, with both fan bases eager to see which side will write the next chapter in this postseason rivalry.
