UKAT Members
Seth Kendall - Captain
Year: Ph.D. Candidate
Discipline:
History
Formerly of the University of Memphis, Seth is pursuing his
doctorate in Roman History at UK, where he brings his putative specialties in
military and ancient history, myth, and painting to the team. Recognized for
his absurdly high tossup-interrupt ratio (which often approaches 30), he is
far better known for subjecting anyone within earshot to a steady barrage of
blackhearted verbal abuse.
Kalan Kucera
Year: Senior
A transfer student, Kalan has registered some fine performances in his time with the UKAT, a trend the team hopes to continue to exploit during this season.
Ryan
Taber
Year: Senior
Major: Chemistry
During the last three seasons Ryan has developed into a consistently good player, typically hovering at or above the top ten in individual scoring when leading his own teams and not infrequently collecting individual accolades for his efforts. A former high-school teammate of UKAT alumna Erin Malony, generalist possessed of a broad range of knowledge and fearless behind the buzzer, Ryan is notable for his sang froid and utter unflappability in game situations, maintaining the same cool demanor when losing a game or, as is slightly more often, when pulling out victories.
Hunter Wight
Year: Junior
Major: Classical Studies
Like Ryan a former high-school teammate UKAT alumna Erin Malony, Hunter has put up some respectable numbers in his first two seasons; the team looks forward to his continued development as a player, drawing his strength from his knowledge of Greek and Roman Classics.
