The University of Kentucky will allow reduced spectator capacity for men's and women's basketball games this season, the school announced.
Anticipated guidelines call for up to 15% of normal capacity at Rupp Arena, the 20,000-seat home of the men's team.
Fans will be required to wear face coverings except when eating or drinking. A minimum 12-foot buffer zone will also be placed between the court and the first row of seating.
John Calipari's Wildcats enter the season with the NCAA's No. 1-ranked recruiting class.
