UNIVERSITY
THE SEC MEDIA POLICY By acceptance and use of an SEC media credential, the holder agrees to the following conditions for any and all athletic events hosted by the SEC and its member institutions: 1. The SEC and its member institutions grant a media organization a limited license to use certain gathered information on the media organization’s own Internet or online site beginning at the start of an athletic event and up to the conclusion of such event, all subject to the following limitations and conditions: (a) No more than 10 still photographs may be used for news coverage of the game and other editorial purposes during the event. (b) Video tape may only be shown as part of a single, nonarchived, online “simulcast” of a television station’s regularly-scheduled news program. (c) While a game is in progress, the use of textual statistical information is time-delayed and limited in amount (e.g., updates pertaining to score, injuries and national, conference or institutional record-breaking performances, a condensed half-time story) so that an organization’s Internet or online game coverage does not undercut the authorized and rightspaying fee organization’s rights to play-by-play accounts of the game and/or exclusivity as to such rights. 2. Any proposed media use on an Internet or online sight of the game information that is more detailed and/or more than described above will require separate written authorization by the SEC and/or its member institutions. However, such written authorization will not permit the use of game information in entertainment contexts and will not authorize game coverage that, due to immediacy or detail, constitutes or approaches a playby-play account of a game.

LADY VOL TELEVISED GAMES No other women’s basketball program in the nation enjoys the national scope of television coverage like the Lady Vols. Tennessee can trace its television coverage roots back to NBC’s SportsWorld in 1978 when the Lady Vols enjoyed their first top ranking in program history. Beginning in the 1978 season, the first of many local network television stations began airing select Lady Vol games each year. In 1979, TRZ Sports televised UT’s first nationally aired game from Knoxville. Additionally, UT was one of the first schools to welcome ESPN to its campus for coverage of women’s hoops. A network first for women’s basketball occurred at the 1981 AIAW National Championships when Coach Pat Summitt allowed herself to be miked for the title game and cameras were rolling in the locker room at halftime as a national audience was treated to an up-close view of Lady Vol basketball. Since the 1980s, over 500 games have been televised via CBS, NBC, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, FSN, Sport South, Prime, Sports Channel, Home Team Sports, Home Sport Entertainment, and Comcast/Charter Sports Net. Countless other games have been aired via local cable outlets. No other women’s team in the nation has enjoyed the number of exposures on CBS Sports. To date, the Lady Vols have appeared 23 times on CBS and sport a 15-8 overall record. Tennessee has enjoyed phenomenal television growth over the last seven seasons as 83% of its games have been televised (204 television appearances out of a total of 247 games). Last season, the Lady Vols were on television 33 times and sported a 30-3 record on the tube. The Lady Vols have 27 regular season television opportunities for the 2011-12 season. Bob Kesling, the Director UT will once again appear on ESPN, ESPN2, of Athletic Department ESPNU, CSS and SportSouth to name a few. Broadcasting, provides play-by-play on select Lady Vol television games.
THE PAT SUMMITT SHOW “The Pat Summitt TV Show” takes Tennessee fans inside the workings of the most dominant women’s basketball program in the country. This entertaining 30-minute show is hosted by legendary coach Pat Summitt and the Lady Vol Network’s Mickey Dearstone.

2011-12 TENNESSEE LADY VOL BASKETBALL
PLAYING IN THE MOMENT
As the University of Tennessee’s Lady Vol basketball players take to the court, fans are apt to see a new level of spontaneity and exuberance in the tight-knit 11-member team. The Big Orange squad, perhaps as it never has before, will be “Playing in the Moment,” game in and game out, during the 2011-12 season. Their new approach to hoops sprang forth following the news they heard from their head coach at the first team meeting of the year on Aug. 23, 2011. Pat Summitt, the winningest basketball coach in NCAA history with a record of 1,071-199 (.843), stood before her players and staff and shared her news. “I visited the Mayo Clinic this spring and have been diagnosed with early onset dementia, Alzheimer’s Type,” Summitt announced to the hushed gathering. “I don’t want a pity-party, because it is what it is,” she said. “I plan on being your head coach as long as the good Lord is willing.” The silence was broken by fifth-year senior Vicki Baugh who spoke up almost immediately. “Coach, we’ve got your back. All of us do.” Summitt told her team that nothing would change about the way Lady Vol basketball conducted its business. “We expect to be cutting down nets at the end of the season,” she stated matter-of-factly. With Summitt’s words, faces brightened up around the room and the players absorbed the information in an instant. Collectively they echoed, “Coach, we love you! Let’s get this done.” This group of eight experienced Lady Vol returnees and three eager and mature freshmen now appears more than ready to take on anything that is thrown its way. “These players are at a different level and are very focused with solid leadership this season,” said Summitt. “They will be disappointed if they don’t cut down nets this year. “This team has great chemistry; and early on, they are holding each other very accountable.” Following last season, five players departed

the ranks. First, a pair of guards graduated in UT’s all-time leading three-point shooter Angie Bjorklund (career averages of 11.1 ppg, 2.9 rpg and 41% treys) and back-up Sydney Smallbone (2.5 ppg and 0.9 rpg). Second, redshirt junior and 6’6” center Kelley Cain (8.6 ppg, 6.2 rpg, 2.5 bpg career) also graduated and decided to forego her final year of eligibility. In April 2011, after continuously battling achy hips and knees, she announced, “I have accepted the fact that I am currently unable to meet the demands of playing collegiate basketball.” Finally, a pair of players moved on, as freshman guard Lauren Avant (2.6 ppg, 1.3 rpg) and senior forward Alyssia Brewer (6.9 ppg, 4.6 rpg career) departed the Lady Vol ranks. So what will this Lady Vol team look like on the court this season? “We’ll be long and lean and more versatile. We feel like this team will be able to move and cover end line to end line and sideline to sideline better than our last several teams,” said Summitt along with her staff, Holly Warlick, Dean Lockwood and Mickie DeMoss, in a roundtable interview. Instead of the big, massive and powerful front line of many previous Lady Vol teams, this one is going to feature a leaner, more athletic, mobile and a flex-position front line, while the backcourt is going to feature speed and more speed. “We can play a variety of personnel all the way down the roster,” said the staff. Coming into 2011-12, this squad also has shown its versatility in scoring and rebounding as well. Last season, seven different players led the team in scoring, and eight players were gamehigh rebounding leaders. This team also benefits from eight returnees all having logged starting assignments during their careers. Over the summer, Summitt’s 38th edition of the Lady Vol basketball team collectively embraced “preparation with a purpose” in off-season workouts. An already close and mature team cemented its bond even more following Summitt’s announcement, and they all ramped up the positive energy they exude daily. Ever since that time, Summitt has been encouraging them to live, play and enjoy the moment. Probably the player who walks that walk the best is fifth-year senior Baugh, a 6’4” post (3.6 ppg, 3.2 rpg in 2010-11). A member of the Lady Vols’ 2008 NCAA Championship Team as a rookie, Baugh blew out the anterior cruciate ligament in her left knee in the title game and unfortunately, did it again as a sophomore in her 14th game of the season in 2008-09. After surgery to repair a torn meniscus in January 2010, she sat out the 2009-10 campaign and slowly worked her way back during 2010-11. “Vicki Baugh, back and healthy, takes our team to another dimension with our athleticism,” said Summitt. This season, she is back better than ever and ready to make the most of her final go-round. Already with her B.A. degree in hand, she will complete her eligibility in UT graduate school in sports psychology. “Vicki is an awesome leader for this team,” Summitt continued. “She has a tremendous influence over her teammates and a powerful presence on the court. Her teammates look to her because she is so mentally strong.” Baugh previewed her mental toughness in

the final game of the 2011 season against Notre Dame in the NCAA Elite Eight game last March. She shed her tentativeness and logged 18 minutes – her most playing time since tearing her ACL for the second time on Feb. 2, 2009. Caught up in the moment of trying to help her team to the Final Four, it was a physical and emotional breakthrough for her. Living in the moment will be a challenging task for the four true seniors who are collectively mindful of the unfinished business at hand. This will be their last dance and the final shot at advancing to the Final Four. In their rear view mirrors, they can still see the disappointing 2008-09 rookie campaign and losing for the first time in school history in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. Also in the mirror’s view are the heady achievements of fashioning 32-3 and 34-3 records and winning back-to-back SEC regular season and tournament titles in 2010 and 2011. “There are some positives to having a senior-laden team,” said Summitt. “They have been through about everything, but they are very resilient and focused and obviously very seasoned with all of their experiences over the last three years. They just have to stay in the moment and enjoy it.” The seniors are led by a 2011 State Farm AllAmerican and the 2011 SEC Player of the Year in 6’2” guard/forward Shekinna Stricklen (12.8 ppg, 7.3 rpg) and an All-SEC and All-SEC Defensive Team selection in 6’3” post Glory Johnson (12.0 ppg, 9.7 rpg). This past summer, they captured gold medals after a winning stint with Team USA at the World University Games in Shenzhen, China. Last season, the duo joined the Lady Vol 1,000-Point Club, becoming the 35th and 36th players to do so. “Shekinna, Glory and Vicki are all impact play-

signments and playing all 37 games in the 2010-11 season. “Kamiko has shown such growth both on and off the court,” said Summitt. “I just hate that she had to suffer a torn ACL. She gives us great athleticism at the guard spot and worked hard at improving her defensive play. “Although we are projecting her return to the court around Christmas, hopefully, it will be a waitand-see situation,” said Summitt. UT’s lone sophomore, 5’9” guard Meighan Simmons (13.5 ppg, 2.7 rpg), had an outstanding rookie campaign, leading the Lady Vols in scoring from start to finish, and earning SEC Freshman of the Year honors along the way. Simmons was just the fourth true rookie in UT history to lead the Lady Vols in scoring as a frosh, joining Bridgette Gordon (1985-86), Chamique Holdsclaw (1995-96) and Shekinna Stricklen (2008-09). A two guard, Simmons accomplished a great deal as a point guard during her first campaign. Her impact might be even greater as she moves back to her natural position. “No doubt about it, Meighan had great success last year, and we are challenging her to build on it, not to sit on it,” said DeMoss. She tallied exactly 500 points and dished out 104 scoring passes, joining former Lady Vol Olympian and All-American Kara Lawson (504 points, 102 assists in 1999-2000) in a very exclusive true rookie sorority at Tennessee. As a great offensive force, Summitt has challenged Simmons to dial up her defense this season. “I’ve asked Meighan to set the example for this team with her defensive play,” said Summitt. “I told her that her defensive awareness, intensity and effort are all things she can control to become a better player. We need that commitment from her to take on a greater role.” Definitely taking on a big role in 2011-12 will be the talented Lady Vol newcomers in three high school All-Americans 6’2” forward Cierra Burdick (Charlotte, N.C.), 6’3” post Isabelle “Izzy” Harrison (Nashville, Tenn.) and 5’6” point guard Ariel Massengale (Bolingbrook, Ill.). Burdick and Massengale earned gold medals with the USA U19 team this summer, while Harrison benefited from enrolling early at UT, working out on campus with her new teammates and playing in a summer league. “I love their energy and the positive personalities of this freshmen class,” said Summitt. “They love the game…they love this program and they are great teammates,” echoed the staff. The thing that strikes one immediately about all three players is the Lady Vol DNA they all read-

poised once again to contribute whenever called upon. Manning has played in 103 career games and earned 23 career starts, while Bass has seen action in 88 games and lined up for the opening tip 14 times. Tennessee’s coaches refer to Manning as “hard-nosed” and “the glue of the team,” while Bass is valued for her leadership and energy as “her teammates feed off her game.” Need a back-up point guard? You can call on Manning. Want someone to do the dirty work as a four player in the post? Give number 15 the call. Got to have a stop or help on defense? “A-town” is your player. “The things Alicia Manning does on the court don’t always show up in the box score,” said Warlick. “She is tough-minded and has played as diverse a role as anyone on our team. The great thing about her? She is always, always about the team,” said Lockwood. The same can be said for Bass. She has an effervescence about her that just gets everyone going. Whether she’s a starter averaging 21 minutes a game like she did as a rookie or playing in a backup role at the point, team is always first for Bass. “Bree has such a positive attitude and is a great leader,” said Summitt. “She is always focused on the task at hand, and she diligently works on her game. She is a great teammate and gives energy to everyone.” Summitt would like nothing more than for this class to advance to a Final Four. “As a class, our five seniors have been through the spectrum from the highest of the highs, to the lowest of the lows,” said Summitt. “All season long, I am going to encourage them to stay hungry, be in the moment and enjoy it. Perhaps good things are in store for them.” Guards Taber Spani (8.0 ppg, 4.1 rpg) and Kamiko Williams (6.8 ppg, 3.2 rpg) are a pair of lefties who each experienced a great deal of growth in their games as sophomores. The 6’1” Spani picked up 26 starts while the 5’11” Williams earned increased minutes (17.9 mpg) coming as a result of improved defensive intensity. This summer, Williams had surgery on July 22 to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament in her left knee. Her return to the court has not been determined as of yet. “Both Taber and Kamiko showed solid improvement and worked hard in the off-season to improve their right hands, foot speed and mobility,” said Summitt. “Kamiko’s return will be a waitand-see situation.” Spani battled through some dings and nicks as a sophomore. In October 2011, she had surgery on her left elbow to remove scar tissue build-up and returned to the court a couple of weeks after being sidelined. She took on a bigger role as a sophomore and doubled her rookie productivity in the box score, turning in 13 double-figures scoring games and flirting with a couple of doubledoubles. “A healthy Taber is going to be very good for this team,” said Summitt. “Her teammates respect her work ethic and her attitude. She is an energy giver.” “She is in tremendous shape…really mobile and lean,” remarked DeMoss. “As a result of her surgery, she had to do more things with just her right hand and that has helped her game quite a bit. I also believe she’ll come into this season as a better defender.” Unfortunately, Williams suffered her left knee injury on July 7 while playing in the Women’s Pilot Rocky Top Summer Basketball League in Knoxville. She was driving the baseline and went in for a reverse layup when the ACL tear occurred. She had been working hard in the off-season to be a bigger impact player for UT after earning four starting as-

ers for our team,” said Summitt. “Each of them is capable of producing game-changing moments, and they are at the core of our scoring and rebounding attack. All three of them should have All-America-type seasons.” Even though she did not lead her team in scoring, Stricklen earned All-America honors as a result of playing all three positions on the floor and solid defense. She has the capability of exploding in almost every statistical box score category on any given night. “Shekinna can impact a game on multiple levels,” said Summitt. “As an All-American, she has to play well for this team to go where they haven’t gone yet. “We have challenged her to become consistent in her play every time she steps out on the floor. If she does that, she can be one of the best players in the country.” Johnson rolled through her academic curriculum and graduated in just three years with a degree in global studies. She is now pursuing her master’s degree in communications studies. Johnson settled into scoring and rebounding consistency last season and nearly became the first Lady Vol to average double-figure rebounds for a season since All-American Patricia Roberts did so in 1977 with 14.2 rpg. “We are going to challenge Glory to have a double-double season in points and rebounds,” said Lockwood. “Last year, Glory turned the corner in terms of her approach to the game, and she had an All-American type of season. I believe this is going to be a special year for her.” Amazingly, Johnson is just 137 rebounds shy of becoming just the fourth Lady Vol in school history to grab 1,000 career boards and would join Chamique Holdsclaw (1,295 rebounds in 148 games), Sheila Frost (1,043 rebounds in 138 games) and Tamika Catchings (1,004 rebounds in 127 games).

ily exhibit. They ooze orange and have a clear understanding of what it means to pull on a Lady Vol uniform and the responsibility that goes along with it. Massengale, who was anointed the 201112 starting Lady Vol point guard by Summitt last March, will jump into the cross-hairs quickly. “Just watch Ariel and you’ll understand why I announced she was our point guard,” said Summitt. “She has a great presence…is a true point guard and we’ve been anxiously waiting for her. I love her tempo. She makes quick decisions and pushes the ball up the floor,” said Warlick. Massengale is also an excellent on-the-ball defender, has great strength and applies constant ball pressure. She’ll have company on defense with Burdick alongside. The duo has done nothing but win gold medals for USA Basketball as teammates for the last three summers. A multi-dimensional player, she is able to line-up on the perimeter or go inside and play the four. “She is a positive and upbeat person and player,” said Lockwood. “She is very even-keeled on the floor and is extremely receptive to coaching.” Burdick is the kind of player who loves to embrace a challenge and does so eagerly. “She has a great skill set and is a solid shooter,” said Summitt. “She is not afraid to play out of her typical comfort zone on the perimeter.” The third member of the group already knew about life as a Lady Vol from her sister, redshirt junior volleyball standout Dee Dee Harrison. “Izzy” Harrison was quickly taken under the wing of Baugh in summer workouts and pick-up games. The fifth-year senior dubbed her rookie protégé, “a mini me.” Early on, the coaches have been impressed with her basketball IQ and the rapid progress she has made in her post game. She has been like a sponge absorbing the system with her willingness to put in extra work. “She has a great work ethic and made an impression on her teammates almost immediately,” said Summitt. “She wants to learn and is so receptive.” The perennial bull’s-eye is firmly affixed to the Lady Vols’ uniforms, as they take on another challenging schedule. Over the last two seasons, UT has fashioned a 66-6 record and won 33-straight SEC games (both regular season and tournament titles) in consecutive years. In addition to the Southeastern Conference slate of 16 games, the Lady Vols also will face a number of formidable non-conference teams, including first time foes Pepperdine and the University of Miami. Also on the dance card are contests with Virginia, Baylor, Middle Tennessee, Texas, DePaul, Rutgers, UCLA, Stanford, Old Dominion, Chattanooga and Notre Dame. Twenty of UT’s 24 opponents in the coming season participated in 2011 post season play, appearing in the NCAA or WNIT Tournaments. In all, UT will be facing competition from nine different conferences in the coming year, including the ACC, Big 12, BIG EAST, Colonial, Pac-12, Southeastern, Southern, Sunbelt and West Coast conferences. “This is an exciting schedule for the coming year,” said Summitt. “We’ll see a couple of new opponents in Pepperdine and Miami and travel to play 2011 Final Four teams Notre Dame and Stanford on their home courts. “The non-conference schedule is really challenging and should help us to prepare for anything we may see come post-season play.” The season gets underway with a pair of exhibition tune-ups in Knoxville, as Carson-Newman

For nearly four decades, the University of Tennessee Lady Vol basketball program has been among the nation’s elite and in the process has changed the way women’s collegiate hoops is perceived across the country. No one has done a better job of managing what goes on inside the 94x50 rectangle known as a collegiate basketball court than the UT head coach. Her unfathomable victories, eight NCAA Championships and 31 combined Southeastern Conference titles, directly speaks to her incredible management and mastery of the 4,700 square feet of roundball real estate. And few have even come close to accomplishing what she has done outside the lines for the last 37 years. To her peers, she is forthright, well-respected, ethical, and a winner who serves as a shining example in the sport of collegiate basketball. “She” is Pat Head Summitt, head coach of the University of Tennessee Lady Volunteer basketball team, who begins her 38th season at the helm of the Lady Vols, has a 1,071-199 overall record, and raises the bar in the collegiate basketball world every time she steps out on the court. On Aug. 23, 2011, Summitt might have raised the bar on courage as she bravely revealed the toughest opponent she will ever have to battle, early onset dementia, “Alzheimer’s Type,” after the doctors at the Mayo Clinic diagnosed her at the age of 59. To be sure, Summitt intends to take on this opponent with her signature game plan. The Tennessee skipper didn’t look at it as a bold move; rather continuing her lifelong practice of both herself and her program being an open book. The immediate groundswell of support has been truly amazing. A “We Back Pat” campaign sprang up overnight and went viral in the social media world. A t-shirt was born with the slogan, and proceeds started pouring into Summittpicked organizations, Alzheimer’s Tennessee and the University of Tennessee Medical Center. Summitt has indicated that she also plans to start a foundation. In announcing her diagnosis, Pat was being just Pat, but a number of organizations have hailed her courage to come forward. The United States Sports Academy awarded Summitt its 2011 Mildred “Babe” Didrikson Zaharias Courage Award for her indomitable spirit in her public battle with early-onset dementia, Alzheimer’s type…On October 4, it was an14

nounced that Summitt would receive the 2011 Maggie Dixon Courage Award. Also in October, The Huffington Post named Summitt a 2011 Game Changer – an innovator, leader and role model who is changing the way we look at the world and the way we live in it. The Tennessee Communication Association selected Summitt for its most prestigious award, Communicator of the Year. The incomparable Summitt has built collegiate basketball’s “hoopdom” at Tennessee. A program developed tirelessly, diligently and successfully by Summitt, her staff and the 161 student-athletes who have been fortunate enough to don the Orange & White jerseys of the Tennessee Lady Volunteers. Summitt, already the all-time winningest coach in NCAA basketball history (men or women), will enter the 2011-12 campaign just 29 victories shy from attaining 1,100 career wins. A brief synopsis of Summitt’s resume goes like this: A consummate taskmaster, she has kept her elite program in the winner’s circle for almost four decades, producing a mind-boggling record of 1,071-199 (.843). During her tenure, the Lady Vols have won eight NCAA titles, as well as an amazing 31 Southeastern Conference tournament and regular season championships. Tennessee has made an unprecedented 30 consecutive appearances in the NCAA Tournament and produced 12 Olympians, 20 State Farm (Kodak) All-Americans named to 35 teams, and 75 All-SEC performers. Along with the success on the court, Summitt’s student-athletes have tremendous productivity in the classroom. Coach Summitt has a 100 percent graduation rate for all Lady Vols who have completed their eligibility at Tennessee. \ IT’S ALL ABOUT THE PLAYERS Throughout the years, Summitt has reached numerous goals and worn many hats at UT as a student, an educator and a coach. She’ll be the first to tell you that her success is due to the players who have represented Lady Vol basketball since she came on board as the head coach as a 22-year old in 1974. And today, it is still safe to say that she is an educator and role model to her players, a student of the ever-changing game and one of the most successful women’s basketball coaches in the nation. In so many ways, she is more than just a coach.

To her athletes, she is just “Pat” from the minute she meets them for the first time on a recruiting visit to the day they walk across the stage in Thompson-Boling Arena to receive their diploma from UT. To her University she is a goodwill ambassador, taking her teams to play basketball in more than 40 states and 11 foreign countries. And the resume she has created along with an outstanding cast of players and staff is amazing. Thirty-seven seasons as a proven winner, champion, master motivator and role model. \ WHO IS PAT HEAD SUMMITT? She has always been an intense, demanding, focused, bright-blue-steely-eyed competitor who is also a very caring, family-oriented person who enjoys a great walk on the beach with the family dogs, Sally Sue and Sadie, or assembling a good ole southern home-cooked meal for her team. Now diagnosed with early onset dementia, Alzheimer’s Type, Summitt does not know what the future entails but expect the coach to offer up full court “D” on dementia. \ THE MILLION DOLLAR COACH The night Summitt registered her 1,000th victory, the University of Tennessee awarded her with a new contract. Then UT President Dr. John Petersen and Women’s Athletics Director Joan Cronan announced on Feb. 5, 2009, that Summitt signed a contract extension through 2014. Summitt earned $1.4 million for 2008-09 and received a $200,000 bonus for her 1,000 wins at Tennessee. The contract also included two lifetime achievement bonuses – $500,000 in 2009-10 and a $1 million longevity bonus in 2013-2014 to reward her for her 40 years as head coach of the Lady Vols. Previously, on May 22, 2006, UT awarded Summitt a six-year contract extension taking her to a $1.5 million compensation package by 20112012. It seems only fitting, with all of her firsts and achievements in the game, that Summitt became the first women’s basketball coach to break through the million dollar ceiling. Despite her mega wealth these days, she still coaches for the love of the game and can remember when her annual salary started out at $8,900 in 1974. \ SHE GIVES BACK, TOO In August 2008, Summitt committed $600,000 to the University of Tennessee.

\ TWO COURTS AND A GYM BEAR HER NAME As a prepster, Summitt went to Cheatham County High School, where she went by the name of “Trish” and was voted “Most Popular” and “Basketball Sweetheart.” The gym that she played in as a CCHS Cubette now bears her name. When Summitt brought her team to play at the University of Tennessee at Martin, on Nov. 23, 1997, her alma mater spent the weekend honoring the Lady Vol coach. UTM designated a street on campus, “Pat Head Summitt Avenue,” and named the basketball court in the Skyhawk Arena, the Pat Head Summitt Court, for their former star player. Summitt’s Lady Vol team christened the newly-named court with a 73-32 victory. UT Knoxville also named a campus street after Summitt and to commemorate reaching the top of the all-time coaching wins list with 880 victories, the University of Tennessee named its basketball court at the Thompson-Boling Arena, “The Summitt,” in a surprise postgame ceremony following the win over Purdue on March 22, 2005. She also is the only person to have two basketball courts utilized by Division I basketball teams named in her honor.
MEASURING UP /// SUMMITT’S NUMBERS
OUTLOOK
\ THE PROGRESSION OF THE WINNINGEST COACH It seemed only fitting that Summitt broke the most significant record in her coaching career – 1,000 career wins – against longtime foe coach Andy Landers and his Georgia Lady Bulldogs in a Southeastern Conference regular season clash at home on “The Summitt.” UT’s skipper had been imploring the youngest team in her tenure to play a 40-minute game, and her squad responded with the 73-43 victory on Feb. 5, 2009. Onehundred and twenty wins earlier, on March 22, 2005, in Knoxville, Tenn., she led her Lady Vols past Purdue, 75-54, in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. The victory was the 880th of her coaching career, moving her past the legendary Dean Smith of North Carolina (879 victories) as the all-time winningest coach in NCAA history. Summitt earned her most recent 100 wins (900-1,000) in a span of just three years and 17 days. Her fastest 100-win total occurred between victories No. 500 and No. 600, which she achieved in only three years and two days. Her toughest set of 100 wins? Victories 200-300 took five years and 32 days to collect. Summitt stands alone at the 1,000-victory plateau among all NCAA coaches, having passed the 900-win club members: retired Don Meyer (923-324, .746) of Northern State, NCAA Div. II; Herb Magee (922-366, .715; still active at Philadelphia Univ., NCAA Div. II); retired Bob Knight (902-317, .706) and Jody Conradt (900-307, .746). (Gene Bess of NJCAA’s Three Rivers Community College, Poplar Bluff, Mo., is still active with a 1,131-302 record; Harry Statham of NAIA’s McKendree College, Lebanon, Ill., is still active with a 1,043-401 record).
\ SHE’S WON EIGHT NCAA BASKETBALL TITLES Time flies when you’re winning. It hardly seems possible that in 2007, Tennessee celebrated the 20th anniversary of the Lady Vols’ first NCAA title in 1987. When Summitt and her Lady Vols (dubbed the “Corn-fed Chicks”) arrived in Austin, Texas, for the 1987 Final Four, they were the decided underdogs to host Texas, Louisiana Tech and Long Beach State. In just 13 seasons, this marked Summitt’s eighth trip to the Final Four, and this time her Lady Vols were ready. After dispatching Long Beach State in the semis, the Lady Vols thumped Louisiana Tech, 67-44, in the title game. “Well, the monkey’s off my back,” Summitt said at the time. “I do not think I could go without recognizing that it was a tremendous team effort…has been for the last three weeks. This team has played as hard and as smart as I could ask any team to play.” With one championship banner in the rafters at Thompson-Boling Arena, the Lady Vols were hungry for more. After failing to defend their title in 1988, the Lady Vols were back in the title game in 1989 as a battle of the SEC powerhouses ensued – Tennessee versus Auburn for all the marbles in Tacoma, Wash. Although they were up against a Lady Tiger team that had made its second-straight national championship final, Tennessee took home its second NCAA championship in three years with a 76-60 win. Vindication was finally Tennessee’s in the 1991 NCAA women’s final, as the Lady Vols downed a talented Virginia Cavalier club, 70-67, in the first NCAA Final Four overtime title game. Virginia had eliminated Tennessee before it could reach the 1990 Women’s Final Four – which just happened to be held in Knoxville. But the Lady Vols took New Orleans by storm and claimed their third NCAA title in five years. It would be five more years before UT hit title paydirt again. In 1996, it seemed only fitting that the Lady Vols would win another NCAA crown in the “Queen City” of Charlotte, N.C. And it was equally fitting that the Lady Vols’ fourth NCAA title would come over a fierce SEC rival in the Georgia Lady Bulldogs, 83-65. A year later, the 1997 Lady Vol team had been through a trying campaign. An HBO documentary crew followed the team all year, filming The Cinderella Season: The Lady Vols Fight Back as Tennessee miraculously made it to the Final Four with a 27-10 record. Despite the rough season, Summitt never stopped believing in that group, and in the end, they came together and accomplished something more highly touted UT teams never did -- they won back-to-back NCAA titles. No team had ever won the NCAA championship coming in with more than six losses. But proving that it’s wise to save your best for last, Tennessee took its fifth NCAA championship and secondstraight title with a 68-59 win over Old Dominion. “Of all our runs to a championship, this one is really the most unexpected,” said Summitt. “It came from a team with tremendous heart and desire.” With the win, the Lady Vols earned their fifth national title, played in their seventh championship game and became only the second team to win consecutive championships, joining the 1983 and 1984 Southern Cal squads. The 1998 Tennessee Lady Vols will be remembered as history-makers. A perfect 39-0 record and the most wins ever in women’s collegiate

basketball…an NCAA unprecedented three consecutive titles…and the systematic blowout night-after-night of the opposition. When the team finally reached the NCAA title game in Kansas City against a dear old rival in Louisiana Tech, Lady Techster coach Leon Barmore called the 1997-98 squad “the greatest team ever to play the game.” With the win, the Lady Vols earned their sixth national title, played in their eighth championship game and became the first team to win three consecutive NCAA titles. From 1999-2006, a total of eight seasons, the Lady Vols advanced to the Final Four five times and came home with three runner-up finishes and two third-place spots. The critics were tough…when was Tennessee going to hang another banner? It seemed fitting, on the 20th anniversary of the Lady Vols’ first NCAA title, that Tennessee once again captured an NCAA title – the school’s seventh crown. In a pair of gutsy games, a team known for its high octane performances pulled out defense, boards and some serious tenacity to claim the seventh title. The showdown in Cleveland, Ohio, pitted the Lady Vols against #2-ranked North Carolina in the semifinals and a championship game meeting with #15/18-ranked Rutgers. As the seconds ticked down, Lady Vol sophomore Candace Parker stole the ball from North Carolina’s Alex Miller, and the Lady Vols rallied to beat North Carolina 56-50. “At the eight-minute mark, I said, ‘We don’t want to go home; we’re not leaving here without a national championship,’” Summitt said. The Lady Vols captured the elusive seventh national title on April 3, 2007, beating Rutgers to the ball for second and third shots in a 59-46 win to reclaim their customary place above all other programs. A year later, Tennessee would find itself back in the 2008 edition of the Final Four in Tampa, Fla., as the defending NCAA Champs. No one liked Tennessee’s chances of winning the crown again except the Orange Nation and the players and staff in the UT locker room. In the semifinals, UT and LSU played through a defensive struggle down to the wire as Alexis Hornbuckle connected on her only basket of the night -- a buzzer-beater rebound put back to give UT the 47-46 win. Tennessee entered its 13th national championship game as the underdogs; only one of the media pundits gave the Lady Vols a chance. Everyone else had their money riding on Stanford.
The Lady Vols had other ideas, as a swarming and badgering team defense stifled the Cardinal, forcing 25 turnovers and allowing just 19 secondhalf points en route to Tennessee’s convincing 64-48 victory. In the end, Parker was voted the Most Outstanding Player of the 2008 Final Four with 17 points, as she played through the pain. She good-naturedly displayed the NCAA Championship trophy on the ESPN Gameday set in her final interview – a not so subtle reminder that the Lady Vols had once again won it all. With a bevy of NCAA title banners decorating Thompson-Boling Arena in Knoxville, it came as no surprise when the NCAA celebrated 25 years of NCAA Women’s Championships in 2006 that they would honor Summitt as the Coach of the NCAA Division I Basketball 25th Anniversary Team and named former Lady Vols Chamique Holdsclaw and Bridgette Gordon to the fivewoman team. \ IN THE COMPANY OF LEGENDS In all of men and women’s collegiate basketball history, Summitt trails only UCLA’s legendary coach John Wooden for the most NCAA titles. Wooden grabbed 10 titles in 29 years; Summitt has picked up eight in 37 seasons (including the NCAA’s first back-to-back-to-back women’s titles in 1996, 1997 and 1998) to pass Kentucky’s legendary coach, Adolph Rupp. Additionally, Summitt passed Wooden’s NCAA record for Final Four appearances with her 13th in 2002 and now has a total of 18. In this elite company of the legends -- of the top NCAA Champion titleholders -- Summitt’s teams have played in and recorded the most NCAA tournament victories, winning 109 of 131 NCAA contests. On the men’s side, the Lady Vols are trailed by Duke’s 102 tournament games and 79 wins under Mike Krzyzewski. Wooden’s Bruins played in 57 NCAA games, winning 47 times, while Bob Knight’s Indiana Hoosiers played in 60 NCAA games, claiming 41 victories through the years. Rupp’s Wildcats won 30 games while making 48 appearances in the “Big Dance.” Summitt a living legend? You bet. \ SHE LOVES TO DANCE Summitt has led her teams to the Final Four of women’s college basketball (both AIAW and NCAA) 22 times in the last 37 years. Eleven of her last 17 teams have advanced to the Final Four, with the 1987, 1989, 1991, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2007 and 2008 teams winning the NCAA title. By winning back-to-backto-back titles in 1996, 1997 and 1998, Tennessee became the first team ever to accomplish that feat in NCAA women’s basketball championship history. In other national finishes at the Final Four, the Lady Vols have finished second seven times and third seven times. \ THE PERFECT SEASON In 1997-98, everything landed perfectly for Summitt. Consider

the following: her 24th edition of a Lady Vol basketball team ran the table with a perfect 39-0 record; this group won an unprecedented third consecutive NCAA title; Summitt’s businesslike philosophy of coaching was chronicled in a bestselling book, “Reach for the Summit” and was followed by “Raise the Roof”; Home Box Office (HBO) released a documentary about Summitt’s fifth NCAA Championship team, “A Cinderella Season: The 1997 Lady Vols Fight Back”; and Summitt became the first female coach to grace the cover of Sports Illustrated. When the smoke cleared after the 1997-98 season, there was absolutely no doubt that the best team was Tennessee. A 39-0 campaign, capped off with the program’s sixth national title in 12 years, resulted in hoops analysts and fans everywhere proclaiming the 1997-98 Lady Vols as the best collegiate women’s basketball team of all time. Summitt’s team didn’t just win games; they dominated opponents, coasting by an average margin of 30.1 points per contest. In the Final Four, where only the nation’s top tournamenttested teams advanced, Tennessee dispatched Arkansas (86-58) and Louisiana Tech (93-75) by an average of 23.0 points. The 39-0 mark, at that time, also gave UT the most wins and best record in the NCAA men’s or women’s basketball history. The Connecticut Huskies tied the Lady Vols’ record with their 39-0 finish in 2002. \ INSIDE THE NUMBERS One of the most incredible numbers posted by Summitt over 37 seasons is her record against ranked opponents. An astounding 47 percent of ALL games coached by Summitt have come against ranked opponents with the Lady Vols producing a 430-162 record and a .725 winning percentage. Imagine facing a ranked opponent in practically every other game in your career. Summitt has faced this challenge for 37 years, night-in and night-out. Additionally, 95 percent of the time she has faced an unranked opponent, Summitt’s teams have won 641 games and faced upset in just 37 contests. During her career, she has enjoyed 492 of her wins in the friendly confines of a home arena against just 45 losses for a 91.5 percent winning mark. On the road, her teams have fashioned a 351-90 mark (.794) and at neutral sites, she is 22864 (.781). A quick look at Summitt’s season finishes tells the story: 22 trips to NCAA (18 of 30) and AIAW (4 of 5) Final Fours in the last 35 years; 35 consecutive seasons with 20 or more wins; 20 seasons of 30-plus wins and over the last 19 years alone, Summitt’s teams have collected 15, 30-pluswin campaigns! The year-by-year success of the coach and her teams at Tennessee is evidenced by the numbers ... 852-147 (.853) during the regular season, 219-52 (.808) in the postseason, and 1,071-199 (.843) overall for 37 years. Her worksheets have resulted in an average of 28.9 wins and 5.3 losses per season for her career. \ BRINGING HOME THE GOLD If her exploits of success in the collegiate ranks are not enough for 37 years of coaching, then consider her brilliant international coaching record. In 1977, Summitt was given the first U.S. Junior National Team to coach, and she led it to two gold medals in international play. What makes it so remarkable is that one year earlier Summitt was a player on the U.S. Olympic Team.

\ NOTABLE AWARDS AND INVOLVEMENT A celebrated figure in women’s athletics, Summitt is busy off the court as well. On Oct. 21, 2008, she was selected as an inaugural recipient of the Joe Lapchick Character Award – an award established to recognize basketball coaches who have shown the character and coaching ability of Hall of Famer Joe Lapchick – along with Lou Carnesecca of St. John’s and Dean Smith of North Carolina. On November 12, 2007, Summitt was recognized as one of “Americas Best Leaders for 2007” as released by U.S. News & World Report, the nation’s leading source of news analysis and service journalism. Summitt, the only sports figure selected, joined such luminaries as James A. Baker III, actor Michael J. Fox, U.S. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, world renowned cellist Yo-Yo Ma and Dr. Harold Varmus, President and CEO of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, among others, to be included on the elite list.

\ COACHING HONORS Over the years, Summitt has received a plethora of coaching awards and honors. In July 2009, The Sporting News named the 50 Greatest Coaches of All-Time. Summitt was voted the 11th best of all-time and was the only woman on the list. Other recent accolades include a resolution by the U.S. House of Representatives on June 5, 2009; an honorary doctorate from the United States Sports Academy on May 19, 2009; receiving the 2009 WNBA Inspiring Coach Award on April 7, 2009, and being honored by her peers with the RUSSELL ATHLETIC/WBCA Victory Club Award for 1,000 career wins on April 6, 2009. After winning her eighth NCAA title, Summitt received the prestigious John R. Wooden Legends of Coaching lifetime achievement award in Los Angeles, Calif., on April 12, 2008. She became the first ever female recipient of the Legends of Coaching Award, which was adopted by the John R. Wooden Award Committee in 1999. The Award recognizes the lifetime achievement of coaches who exemplify the late Coach Wooden’s high standards of coaching success and personal achievement. She was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass., on Oct. 13, 2000, the first time she was eligible for the Hall’s ballot. At the time, Summitt became just the fourth women’s basketball coach to earn Hall of Fame honors when she was inducted with the Class of 2000, which included former NBA greats Isiah Thomas and Bob McAdoo, legendary high school coach Morgan Wootten and contributors C.M. Newton and Danny Biasone. A little more than a year earlier, Summitt was inducted into the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame in the 1999 inaugural class. Summitt’s achievements are unparalleled in the collegiate coaching ranks. In addition to her inductions into the Halls of Fame, she was named as the Naismith Coach of the Century in April 2000. She was doubly honored when former Lady Vol Chamique Holdsclaw was selected as the Naismith Player of the Century. Prior to those announcements, ESPN selected her program as the “Team of the Decade” (1990s), tying with the Florida State Seminole football machine. In 1990, Summitt received the most prestigious award given by the Basketball Hall of Fame, the John Bunn Award. Summitt was the first female to receive the award in the Hall’s history. In October 1990, Summitt was enshrined in
the Women’s Sports Foundation Hall of Fame at a gala event in New York City. In the springs of 1994, 1997 and 1998, Summitt was named the Coach of the Year by the Touchdown Club of Columbus, Ohio, and also was a recipient at the 28th, 32nd and 34th Victor Awards (benefiting the City of Hope) as the Women’s Basketball Coach of the Year in 1994, 1998 and 2000. In April 1996, she was inducted into the National Association for Sport and Physical Education’s Hall of Fame. She was a June 1997 recipient of the Casey Award, which is annually presented by the Kansas City Sports Commission, and a September recipient of the 1997 Governor Ned McWherter Award of Excellence. Summitt has been named the 1987, 1989, 1994, 1998 and 2004 Naismith College Coach of the Year, the WBCA/Converse Coach of the Year in 1983 and 1995 and the IKON/WBCA Coach of the Year in 1998. Earning Southeastern Conference Coach of the Year honors has almost been tougher to acquire than the national accolades. In 31 years of SEC play, Summitt’s teams have produced a 44365 (.872) record and captured a combined 31 SEC titles (16 SEC Championships and 15 SEC Tournament Championships). Despite her success, she has only been named SEC Coach of the Year eight times – 1993, 1995, 1998, 2001, 2003, 2004, 2007 and 2011.

Her next international challenge was taking the U.S. National Team to the 1979 William R. Jones Cup Games, the 1979 World Championships and the 1979 Pan American Games. Summitt and her team returned home with two gold medals and one silver medal. When the Moscow Olympic Games rolled around in 1980, she was honored as the assistant coach to the late Sue Gunter. Although the United States boycotted the Games, the team still captured the pre-Olympic qualifying tournament title. In August 1982, Summitt was named the 1984 U.S. Women’s Olympic basketball coach, and the rush for the gold was on! She coached the 1983 World Championship team to a silver medal finish; but the silver was not indicative of the team’s play. The XXIII Olympiad in Los Angeles, Calif., found Summitt’s U.S. squad tearing through the opposition by a bundle of points. When the gold medal was a reality, Summitt’s team lifted her high and carried the “All-World” coach around the Los Angeles Forum for all to applaud.

Additionally, she holds or has held the following positions: associate athletics director at the University of Tennessee; a past vice-president of USA BASKETBALL; past Olympic representative on the Advisory Committee to USA BASKETBALL; a member of the Board of Trustees of the Basketball Hall of Fame; and a member of the Board of Directors for the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame, commencement speaker, color commentator for network television, clinician and contributor to a film series. To the CEO of a corporation whose morale needs a lift, she is the perfect motivational speaker – over the years she has traveled extensively making motivational speeches to everyone from the Central Intelligence Agency to Victoria’s Secret to Federal Express to the Federal Reserve Board. In the summer of 2002, she added WNBA consultant to her vitae as she assisted the Washington Mystics with player personnel and the draft. Not surprisingly, the Mystics earned their firstever WNBA playoff berth in the summer of 2003 and repeated again in 2004. Summitt stepped aside of her consulting efforts in 2005. \ HOW PAT CAME TO KNOXVILLE Success and accomplishment have always followed Pat Summitt. The folks at the University of Tennessee-Martin thought she was better than pretty good when she enrolled at the west Tennessee university to play basketball and volleyball. By the time Summitt graduated from UTMartin in 1974, she symbolized the prototype player of the decades to come. She was strong ... had great instincts ... was awesome on defense ... took a charge like a greedy housewife ... denied the ball all over the court ... rebounded with au-
18
thority ... took the ball to the hoop ... and then could knock the lights out over a zone defense. In 1973, she made her first U.S. national team when she represented the United States at the World University Games in the Soviet Union. She returned to UT-Martin for her senior season with loftier goals, such as making the 1976 Olympic team. However, four games into her final season as a Lady Pacer, she suffered a near career-ending knee injury. She was determined to get the knee back into shape and try out for the Olympic Games, but not many people gave her a chance. The University of Tennessee in Knoxville, though, showed its confidence in her abilities as a coach when the school offered her a graduate teaching assistantship and the reins to the women’s intercollegiate basketball team as a 22-year-old. The position suited her needs to a “T” -- she could pursue her career and stay close to basketball as she rehabilitated her knee. The late Helen B. Watson, the former chairperson of UT’s Physical Education Department, can be credited for bringing a young Pat Head to Knoxville. Watson asked Head to coach the Tennessee women’s team in a letter dated April 30, 1974, when Head was a 21-year old senior at UTMartin. In her letter, Watson wrote, “we have an excellent potential team, and I believe that they would be happy to have you as their coach.’’ At the time, Head was being courted as the assistant coach who would also serve as a graduate teaching assistant in the Physical Education Department at UT while she pursued her master’s degree. An enthusiastic Head accepted the position. Imagine her shock two weeks later when Watson called back and informed Head that the women’s basketball coach, Margaret Hutson, had decided to take a sabbatical and Tennessee was offering her the job as head coach. Head, who had never run a practice or made out a practice plan or schedule, said she really contemplated her decision because as she put it, “I was absolutely overwhelmed and scared to death.” Patricia Sue Head arrived in Knoxville as the new head coach and was practically the same age as the seniors on her team. A little shy at the time, she never corrected Dr. Helen B. Watson or Dr. Nancy Lay, her mentors in the UT Physical Education Department, when they shortened Patricia to Pat, assuming that’s the name she went by. Head never mentioned to them that she had gone by Tricia or Trish her whole life. In her first year as a collegiate coach, she led her team to a 16-8 overall record, attended classes as a master’s degree candidate, taught physical education classes and stayed in playing shape. As the summer of 1975 approached, she thought the knee was ready for a big test. The knee held and so did Summitt -- held, that is, a spot on the U.S. Women’s World Championship team and the 1975 Pan American Games team. After another summer of international experience, she returned home to coach her Lady Vols to a 16-11 record, a second-place finish in the state tournament and a spot for herself on the

1976 U.S. Olympic Team. Playing on the Olympic Team in Montreal at the Games of the XXI Olympiad was the high point of her competitive playing career, as she helped lead the United States to a silver medal finish while serving as the team’s co-captain. Little did she know at the time but those first two Lady Vol teams -- with just 16 wins each -would be the only ones not to record at least 20 wins in a season during her tenure as head coach. \ ROOTED IN FAMILY Most of All, She’s Tyler’s Mom; the Late-Richard and Hazel’s Daughter and Sister to Tommy, Charles, Kenneth and Linda “My parents taught me a long time ago that you win in life with people,” Summitt said. “And that’s important, because if you hang with winners, you stand a great chance of being a winner.” Patricia Sue Head Summitt was born on June 14, 1952, in Clarksville, Tenn., the daughter of Richard and Hazel Albright Head. She was the fourth of five children – Tommy, Charles, Kenneth and Linda -- and the first girl. Growing up on the family farm, her late father (he passed away on Oct. 23, 2005) was a no-nonsense disciplinarian. Hard work was the norm from sunrise to sundown and all five children had a variety of chores assigned to them daily. As a youngster, her time was consumed with school work, farm chores, and playing basketball in the hayloft with her brothers. She could chop tobacco, plow a field and bale hay with the best of them. Hard work was the backbone of the Head family success, but being a good student was just as important – “Trish” never missed a day of school from kindergarten through high school. Becoming a mother in 1990, her story of going into labor on a recruiting trip to future-Lady Vol Michelle Marciniak’s home is legendary. With her water broken, she still completed the recruiting visit in Macungie, Pa., and then flew home to Knoxville, urging the pilots not to stop so her son would be born in Tennessee. Along with her 21-year old son, a University of Tennessee junior and walk-on guard for the Tennessee men’s basketball team, Ross “Tyler” Summitt, and motherdaughter yellow Labrador retrievers, Sally-Sue and Sadie, they enjoy living in the family compound along the banks of the Tennessee River. She spends her get-away time at the beach or relaxing by the pool. She also enjoys cooking, golf, running and boating.

Win #500: November 21, 1993 – Pat Summitt’s 500th victory came against a former assistant coach who had helped UT’s mentor to 180 wins from 1978-85-- Nancy Darsch. Ohio State was no match for UT in the Inaugural State Farm Hall of Fame game, falling 80-45, in Jackson, Tenn. Victories 400-500 were accomplished in three years and 300 days. Win #400: January 25, 1990 – Tennessee barely squeaked out win number 400 in Columbia, S.C., defeating the Lady Gamecocks, 70-69.

Win #300: January 4, 1987 – It was hard to believe that five years (and 32 days) would elapse before Coach Pat Summitt would claim 100 more wins. Victory 300 came over North Carolina, 87-68, in front of the home folks. Nineteen wins after number 300 over UNC, Summitt’s Lady Vols claimed UT’s first NCAA title.

ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH
HOLLY WARLICK 27TH SEASON AT UT
For over three decades, first as a University of Tennessee player and then as an assistant and associate head coach, Holly Warlick has helped shape the direction of Lady Vol basketball under head coach Pat Summitt. As Summitt has become the all-time winningest coach in men’s or women’s collegiate hoops, Warlick has been by her side, either as a player or an assistant, for 922 of the 1,071 wins collected by her mentor. The senior-most member of Summitt’s staff, she capably slid into the role as top assistant in 2003-04 when she was named associate head coach. Now, Warlick and assistant coaches Dean Lockwood and Mickie DeMoss, will take on added responsibilities as a result of Coach Summitt’s announcement regarding her diagnosis of dementia. Under Summitt’s direction, Warlick will oversee the daily supervision of the basketball office. Now entering her 27th season as an assistant to Summitt, Warlick, and the rest of the coaching staff, has their sights set on obtaining an unprecedented ninth national championship in 2011-12. Warlick has been onboard for all eight NCAA titles while Lockwood assisted in the last two (2007 and 2008). The return of DeMoss in 201011 and her first six Lady Vol titles, coupled with Warlick and Lockwood, gives Summitt a pair of national assistant coaches of the year and the core of her staff that captured all eight national championships. The WBCA named Warlick the nation’s top assistant coach after she helped lead UT to its seventh national title in 2007. That was the same year that Warlick teamed with former fellow Lady Vol player and assistant Nikki Caldwell, the current head coach at LSU, to pursue her other passions: raising money for the fight against breast cancer and motorcycle riding. Warlick and Caldwell created the Champions For A Cause Foundation, a long haul motorcycle ride dedicated to raising funds and awareness for a cure for breast cancer. The charitable organization has raised and donated over $150,000, and this past spring the duo led a fifth annual trip – this time from the Badlands to Las Vegas. Past trips include the inaugural ride from San Francisco to Knoxville as well as trips to Key West, Fla., New Orleans and Niagara Falls. On Feb. 10, 2008, Warlick and Caldwell presented a $10,000 check to the late N.C. State Head Coach Kay Yow and the Kay Yow/WBCA Cancer Fund. With all of her accomplishments in coaching and in her charitable endeavors it might be easy
TENNESSEE LADY VOL BASKETBALL /// 2011-12 MEDIA GUIDE
to forget Warlick left just as powerful a mark on women’s hoops as a player at UT. However, somehow it doesn’t seem that long ago that the charismatic Knoxville native was flying up and down the court as a Lady Vol All-America point guard. For over three decades, Warlick has been considered as the finest point guard to ever play for the University of Tennessee Lady Vols. A number of Halls of Fame agree, as she has been enshrined in five of them: On Feb. 27, 2004, she was inducted into the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame. In October 2002, she became a member of the University of Tennessee Lady Vol Hall of Fame in the second class of inductees. In June 2001, the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame selected Warlick as one of 10 inductees enshrined into the Hall for the Class of 2001. For the hometown girl, who grew up in Rocky Hill, just up the road from the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame, it was a-dream-come true. In January 1994, Warlick was selected to the CONVERSE/ Lady Vol Team of the Decade for the 1980s. In the summer of 1994, Warlick was honored as one of the City of Knoxville’s finest all-time athletes with her inclusion into the Knoxville Sports Hall of Fame. Including this season, Warlick has spent 31 years with the program, having helped shape UT into a national powerhouse with tenure as both a player and a coach. Warlick’s expertise and major contributions to the team come from her work with the guards. Last season, freshman point guard Meighan Simmons was the SEC Rookie of the Year and junior guard Shekinna Stricklen was named as the 20th Lady Vol to the WBCA/State Farm All-America Team. Additionally, she has been a highly-successful recruiter for the backcourt, attracting some of the nation’s finest players to UT to continue the excellence she helped establish as a player. The Lady Vols welcomed top flight guard prospect to the Orange and White for the upcoming season in 2011 McDonald’s All-America Ariel Massengale. Warlick’s tutelage also helped to strengthen the game of four-time All-SEC selection Angie Bjorklund; Kara Lawson, a KODAK All-American and a four-time Lady Vol All-SEC performer, and Shanna Zolman, a three-time All-SEC selection. That trio accounts for the school records for most of UT’s three-point marks. In 1998, the NCAA Division I women’s basketball coaches recognized Warlick as one of the nation’s top assistants as she was ranked in The Women’s Basketball Journal poll as was DeMoss, who won the award.
ASSOC. HEAD COACH HOLLY WARLICK U.S. Olympic basketball team, Warlick also participated in the Jones Cup, Pan American Games and World Championship competition. In addition, she was a WPBL All-Star as she led the Nebraska Wranglers to the championship of the Women’s Professional Basketball League in 1981. She has served as a player representative on the USA BASKETBALL council and was a member of the USOC Advisory Council for Basketball. In recognition of being a former Olympian, Warlick earned the distinct honor of running the Olympic torch through Knoxville as it made its way to the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, Ga. Tennessee is not Warlick’s first stop on the coaching circuit. She was an assistant coach at Virginia Tech from 1981-83 and an assistant from 1983-85 at Nebraska. A native of Knoxville, Warlick earned her B.S. in marketing from Tennessee in 1981 and her master’s degree in athletic administration from Virginia Tech in 1983. Warlick added “biker” to her vitae in 2001. To commemorate her induction into the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame, a number of Warlick’s friends got together and presented her with a Harley-Davidson “Sportster” motorcycle. Just six years later, Warlick was already using her love of the bike towards a greater cause, establishing Champions For A Cause Foundation with Caldwell. Holly makes her home in rural west Knoxville with mother-daughter Black Labs named Dixie and Chesney (her dogs are named after singers or bands), and her rescue cat, Sasha.

Warlick’s association with the Lady Vols started in 1976 when she joined the program as a scholarship 400-meter track athlete who walked on to the basketball team. Soon, she would become the most prolific player in the history of Tennessee Lady Vol basketball. Warlick was the first player in the history of Tennessee athletics (men or women) to have her jersey retired (number 22) at the end of her career in 1980. Known as a play-making wiz during her four years as UT’s point guard, Warlick was once tabbed the “best player in the South.” She has had no trouble adjusting her enthusiasm and knowledge of the game into the coaching role. As a rookie, Warlick helped lead the Lady Vols to their first Final Four appearance in school history in 1977. In 19 of the 30 years Warlick has been affiliated with UT, she has found herself at the Final Four as a player (1977, 1979, 1980) and as a coach (1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1991, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007 and 2008). Her best Final Four showing as a player was national championship runner-up in her senior season. As a coach, she has helped the Lady Vols grab the brass ring all eight times (1987, 1989, 1991, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2007 and 2008). A three-time All-American while playing for Summitt from 1976-80, Warlick previously held UT records for most assists in a game (14), most steals in a game (nine), most assists in a season (225) and most games in a career (142). Warlick brings vast international experience to the Lady Vols as well. A member of the 1980

Dean Lockwood became just the ninth assistant coach ever to serve under Head Basketball Coach Pat Summitt at the University of Tennessee when he was named to the staff on July 2, 2004. Lockwood is instrumental in all aspects of the Lady Vol basketball program, but his primary responsibilities include player development, recruiting and scouting. The 2004-05 season was his first in Knoxville since serving as an assistant coach with the Tennessee men’s program from 1986-91. Since his return to Rocky Top, the Lady Vols have compiled a record of 219-32 for an impressive .872 winning percentage, captured five SEC Tournament crowns and three SEC regular season championships, appeared in three Final Fours and won back-to-back national championships (200708). Lockwood held the position of men’s head coach at Saginaw Valley State University (Michigan) from 1998-2004. The Bay City, Mich., native returned to the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference after serving a year as assistant coach at Central Michigan University. On October 19, 2008, Lockwood was inducted into the Bay County (Mich.) Sports Hall of Fame for his career accomplishments. He was also inducted into the Spring Arbor (Mich.) University Athletic Hall of Fame on Oct. 8, 2010. Prior to his CMU stint, Lockwood held the men’s head coaching position at Northwood University (Michigan) from 1991-97. While there, he led the team to its first back-to-back winning seasons in 15 years. After posting an 18-9 record and a secondplace finish in the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference North Division during the 199697 campaign, Lockwood was honored as the GLIAC Coach of the Year. In 1991-92, Lockwood directed the Northwood program in its transition from NAIA to NCAA Division II. Additionally, in his capacity as a head coach at two different small-budget GLIAC programs from 1991-2004, he not only was successful in guiding both institutions into postseason play (one of only a handful of coaches to guide two schools in the GLIAC to post-season play), but he maintained a graduation rate of 80 percent during his tenure at both Saginaw Valley State and Norwood University. From 1986-1991, Lockwood served as an assistant for the University of Tennessee men’s basketball team under head coach Don DeVoe and later Wade Houston. During his tenure as an assistant, Volunteer teams went 77-75, posting three consecutive winning seasons, made a pair of National Invitational Tournament trips and had an NCAA Tournament bid in 1989 after an 18-9 regular season. In addition to his assistant coaching duties at Tennessee, Lockwood also served as a special assistant to the director of alumni programs from 1989-91. In his role as an assistant coach in the men’s game, Lockwood was heavily involved in player development through the years. He has coached seven NBA draft picks as well as one other player who played in the NBA.
TENNESSEE LADY VOL BASKETBALL /// 2011-12 MEDIA GUIDE
Lockwood’s first full-time coaching position was as men’s assistant coach at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point from 1983-86. In 1984-85, he helped Army to its best record and only winning season since 1978. Lockwood cut his teeth in the coaching profession as a men’s graduate assistant at Central Michigan in 1982-83. In addition to his head and assistant coaching duties, Lockwood conducted coaching and playing clinics in Great Britain for eight years and was a consultant and clinician for the Welsh Basketball Association. He has also done coaching clinics in Poland. He has served as the summer camp director at Saginaw Valley State, Northwood and West Point, as well. For 12 summers Lockwood directed very successful shooting and offensive moves camps in Michigan. In previous summers, Lockwood has also spent time observing at Pete Newell’s Big Man Camp and the NBA pre-draft camp in Chicago, Ill. As a collegiate player, Lockwood was a fouryear letterwinner at Spring Arbor College (Mich.), a three year starter at point guard, and a captain for two seasons. He helped lead the squad to a single-season school record in wins and was offered a contract to play professional basketball in the English Basketball Association. Lockwood earned a bachelor’s degree in secondary education from Spring Arbor in 1982, majoring in English and secondary education. He earned a master’s degree in counseling and personal and student development from Central Michigan University in 1989. The 52-year-old Lockwood is single. Active in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes for many years, he has been a guest speaker at numerous coaching clinics, FCA functions and community events. As a lifelong runner, Lockwood has participated in numerous 5K, 10K and 20K races around the country. Additionally, he enjoys reading and traveling in his spare time.

When Mickie DeMoss returned to the Lady Vol sidelines in 2010-11, it was as if she had never left Rocky Top. The seamless transition back to Tennessee, after seven years away, reunited DeMoss with a university and women’s basketball program she called home for 18 seasons as an assistant coach. DeMoss and current Associate Head Coach Holly Warlick both joined the Lady Vols’ coaching staff prior to the 1985-86 season. For the next 18 years, the coaching trio of Summitt, DeMoss and Warlick, posted six NCAA Championship titles (1987, 1989, 1991, 1996, 1997 and 1998) while advancing to 12 NCAA Final Fours. During this span, the Lady Vols had a 554-77 overall record (.878). In 2000, DeMoss was promoted to associate head coach at Tennessee. DeMoss, who just finished her 34th season on the sidelines as a women’s basketball coach, left the Lady Vols after the 2002-03 season to take the head coaching job at Kentucky. In four seasons, she guided the Wildcats to a 71-56 record including consecutive 20-win seasons (for the first time in 16 years) and three postseason appearances (one NCAA and two WNIT) for the first time in school history. In 2005-06, DeMoss was named the SEC Coach of the Year, a first for a UK coach, as she guided the 22-9 Wildcats to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in seven seasons and punctuated the trip with an NCAA win. This breakout year also included a victory over No. 1-ranked Tennessee, 66-63, in Rupp Arena in front of a school-record crowd of 13,689. It marked UK’s first win over a top-ranked team in school history. In 2006-07, UK was 20-14 and advanced to the WNIT. That season, DeMoss’ Cats attracted a school record attendance of 5,863 fans per game. She elected to step aside as head coach at Kentucky in April 2007. Her coaching hiatus ended when she accepted an assistant coaching position at the University of Texas in the summer of 2007. She was the Longhorns’ top recruiter while also coaching the post game. During her first stint at Tennessee, DeMoss developed a reputation as the top assistant in the women’s game. A survey of the nation’s NCAA Division I women’s head basketball coaches tabbed her the top assistant in the country in 2000. She also garnered that same distinction from a 1998 The Women’s Basketball Journal poll. While on Rocky Top, DeMoss was considered a great technical mind, floor coach and entertainer. Off the court, she was regarded as one of the best recruiters in the college game, year after year recruiting future All-SEC and All-America award-winners, while stockpiling rosters with the kind of players essential to winning national championships.
Some of DeMoss’ most notable recruits at Tennessee include: Tonya Edwards, the 1987 Final Four MVP, Dena Head, the 1992 SEC Player of the Year, Chamique Holdsclaw, the 1996 and 1997 Final Four MVP, and Tamika Catchings, a four-time All-American. Noted for her success coaching post players, DeMoss protégés have represented Team USA in every Olympic Games since 1992. That year, three DeMoss-coached centers helped lead the U.S. to a bronze medal in Barcelona, Spain. Daedra Charles, who DeMoss shaped into a Wade Trophy winner in 1991 at UT, Tammy Jackson, who played for DeMoss during her first head coaching stint at Florida, and Vickie Orr, who she recruited to come to Auburn while an assistant coach there, each saw significant time in the post on the U.S. roster. The trio combined to average over 20 points per game. In 1996, former Lady Vol Carla McGhee helped lead the United States to the gold medal in Atlanta, Ga., while Holdsclaw represented the Red, White and Blue at the 2000 Sydney Games, but was sidelined for the tournament with a stress fracture. The latest DeMoss pupil to have success on the international level, the versatile Catchings, captured gold medals for Team USA at the 2004 Olympics in Athens, Greece, and the 2008 Games in Beijing, China. Prior to joining the Tennessee staff in 1985, DeMoss had been an assistant coach at Auburn University (1983-85), a head coach at the University of Florida (1979-83) and an assistant at Memphis State (1977-79). DeMoss received her undergraduate degree in physical education from Louisiana Tech University in 1977, where she starred at point guard. She then received her master’s degree in education at Memphis State University in 1979. She is a native of Tallulah, La.

DIRECTOR OF CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
DAEDRA CHARLES-FURLOW FOURTH SEASON AT UT
After two years as an assistant coach on Pat Summitt’s staff at her alma mater, Daedra CharlesFurlow was named the director of character development prior to the 2010-11 season. Starting her second year in the new role, Charles-Furlow focuses on character education and life skills for the Lady Vol basketball players. Additionally, she is a direct link to the Thornton Center academic staff. “I think that first of all, you build character every single day,” Charles-Furlow said. “In order to go out into this world and be successful, people look at your character. They look at who you are… what you bring… are you honest…and are you loyal. I think that Pat has done an excellent job because she exemplifies all of that and she instills that in us.” Charles-Furlow initiates various teambuilding exercises, such as completing a military obstacle course, communication workshops and community outreach. The Detroit, Mich., native graduated in the University of Tennessee’s class of 1991 with outstanding accomplishments as a studentathlete. She led the Lady Vol basketball team in scoring, rebounding, and blocked shots in both the 1990 and 1991 seasons.
In her time, the 6-3 center was the seventhranked career scorer with 1,495 points, was sixth in rebounding with 858 boards and second in blocked shots with 97 rejects in her college career. She was a key contributor to the 1988-89 NCAA Championship team and the first Tennessee or SEC player to receive the most prestigious award in women’s collegiate basketball in 1991, the Margaret Wade Trophy. Charles-Furlow was a KODAK All-American in both 1990 and 1991. As a senior, she was the Southeastern Conference’s Female Athlete of the Year and a member of the U.S. Basketball Writers’ Association and Basketball Weekly’s All-America Teams. In her final campaign, she was named to the all-tournament teams at the NCAA Final Four, Mideast Regional and SEC Championships. When she graduated in August 1991, finishing in four years despite having been admitted as an NCAA proposition 48 student, she had a degree in child and family studies. She is one of only five Lady Vols to have her number (32) retired. Charles played basketball professionally overseas in Italy, Japan, Turkey and France from 1991-96 before being taken with the eighth overall pick by the Los Angeles Sparks in the 1997 WNBA Elite Draft.
She was a member of three USA national teams, including the 1992 U.S. Olympic Team that won a bronze medal at the Barcelona Olympics. From 2003 to 2006, Charles-Furlow was an assistant coach at the University of Detroit Mercy. She also spent two seasons as an assistant under Nell Fortner with Auburn University’s women’s basketball program.

TENNESSEE LADY VOL BASKETBALL /// 2011-12 MEDIA GUIDE
2010-11 SEASON IN
REVIEW
2010-11 SEASON IN REVIEW: DRIVE TO VICTORY LANE All season long, the 2010-11 University of Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team had its collective sights set on rolling into “Victory Lane” at the 30th running of the NCAA Final Four in Indianapolis, Ind. One lap short of making it to Indy, Tennessee’s hopes were side-swiped. Nevertheless, the 37th edition of a Pat Summitt coached squad produced a 34-3 overall record and for the second consecutive season produced the double-dip of capturing both the regular season Southeastern Conference crown and the coveted SEC Tournament title with a flawless record. “I am so proud of our team for going through the SEC regular season and tournament undefeated – that is not an easy thing to do with a huge target on your back all the time,” said Summitt. “It’s true, we advanced farther than the year before but we came up short of our goal… competing for a Final Four in Indianapolis. I am proud of how we played and competed all season long. With our schedule, winning 25 consecutive games was quite a feat,” said Summitt. Not to diminish the accomplishment of winning consecutive SEC Regular Season Championships and Tournaments, but the expectations at Tennessee are pretty high. The 2011 team was capable of getting to the Final Four but it fell just short of the goal with a loss in the NCAA Elite 8. Tennessee started the season on the road with a 63-50 win at Louisville and was part of the opening night festivities in front of 22,124 fans at the KFC Yum! Center. It was the 19th largest crowd the Lady Vols have ever played in front of and the biggest in BIG EAST history. The game was a coming out party for Lady Vol rookie guard Meighan Simmons who came off the bench to drop in 22 points for UT and a welcome back party for Vicki Baugh who scored her first points since tearing her anterior cruciate ligament for the second time on Feb. 3, 2009. By the next game, Simmons was in the starting line-up for the rest of the season -- becoming the 60th freshman ever to start a game for the Lady Vols -- and immediately celebrated with a 26-point performance over Chattanooga in a 103-43 win
Angie Bjorklund shattered a slew of three-point records during her senior season.
62
in Knoxville. In that win, the Lady Vols broke the UT single-game records for three-pointers made (15) and attempted (33). UT senior Angie Bjorklund got into the scoring act with 26 points of her own in the win over Virginia (85-73) and junior running mate Shekinna Stricklen dropped in 18-points in the 80-64 victory over Arizona State. The Lady Vols jetted to the U.S. Virgin Islands for a Thanksgiving weekend at the Paradise Jam in St. Thomas, as the considered favorite. Missouri fell by the wayside rather easily, 82-44, and Georgia Tech hung in and battled with the Lady Vols but lost 66-42, as Glory Johnson had a monster game with 15 points and a career high 18 rebounds for Tennessee. The game with Tech gave new meaning to the term “lights out.” The power went out on the Island four times during the game for total stoppage of 43:15. There was nothing about a lights out Lady Vol squad the next night. UT showed up for the championship game and looked as if it was playing in broken flipflops in wet sand and dropped a disappointing 69-58 decision to BIG EAST foe and number 12/13-ranked Georgetown. It was the first time in three seasons that Tennessee had not led in a game at all. Back home on terra firma, Tennessee welcomed first time opponent Lamar to Knoxville and handed the visitors from Texas a 99-55 loss. It was due in large part to Simmons, from Cibolo, Texas, setting a UT single game record with eight three-pointers en route to a career high 28 points. Tennessee also tied its single game team record for threes made (15) and set the record for three-point attempts (36). Bjorklund also got into the act, breaking the record for career threepoint attempts, passing Shanna Zolman’s old mark of 626 set from 2002-06. In the next game, an Old Dominion record crowd of 7,774 fans filled the stands in Norfolk, Va., to watch the Lady Vols defeat the Lady Monarchs, 74-44 on Dec. 5. The mark eclipsed ODU’s old record of 7,758 set when UT traveled to Norfolk in 2003. Following that contest, the team was out of action for a week during final exams. The Lady Vols returned to the court and took an 8-1 record into the next game at number 21/24-ranked Texas. Bjorklund came out blazing on all cylinders and dropped in 20 first half points. Tennessee’s 9277 victory snapped the Longhorns 27-game nonconference home winning streak. The state of Texas road swing continued with a first time visit to Waco and a meeting with number 2/3-ranked Baylor. A record crowd of 10,569 jammed the Ferrell Center to see the two teams square off in a repeat of the 2010 Sweet 16 matchup. Despite owning the boards, 53-43, the Lady Vols fell 65-54 to the Lady Bears after shooting a miserable 25 percent from the field. Tennessee had to regroup in a hurry as they returned home with a 9-2 record to face number 3/2-ranked Stanford on Dec. 19. Down by six (63-57), UT went on an 8-0 run to take a two-point lead with 4:41 left and then forced the game into overtime tied at 70-all. The extra stanza was all Tennessee, outscoring the Cardinal 12-2 in overtime and forcing Stanford into 0-6 shooting from the field en route to the 82-72 win. Simmons led UT with 23 points…the fifth 20-point game of her young career. UT claimed its 11th win of 2010-11 with a 102-53 victory over East Tennessee State three days before Christmas. With a free throw at the 16:19 mark in the opening stanza, Stricklen became the 35th Lady Vol to score over 1,000 career points, and sophomore Taber Spani gift-wrapped her performance turning in her first career double-double of 15 points and 12 rebounds. Before the Lady Vols closed the books on the 2010 portion of the schedule, it lost one of the program’s all-time leaders in Melissa McCray-Dukes (1985-89).
TENNESSEE LADY VOL BASKETBALL /// 2011-12 MEDIA GUIDE
Shekinna Stricklen was voted as the 2011 MVP of the SEC and tabbed as an All-American in 2011.
On Dec. 27, McCray-Dukes lost her long and hardfought battle with breast cancer at the age of 43 years old. Nicknamed “Emma” by her Tennessee teammates, McCray-Dukes played on four consecutive NCAA Final Four teams (1986-87-88-89) and started as a guard on coach Summitt’s first two national championship teams in 1987 and 1989. To honor McCray-Dukes, the Lady Vols displayed her uniform number, 35, on their game shorts beginning with the 87-51 win over Rutgers on Dec. 30. In that game, Bjorklund made her 267th career three-pointer at the 18:34 mark in the first half to set the Lady Vol career treys record breaking Zolman’s old record of 266. Simmons string of double-figure scoring games to open her rookie season was halted with just seven points. It ended at 13 games, leaving her one behind Chamique Holdsclaw’s record of 14 to start the 199596 season. UT entered 2011 and the conference slate with a 12-2 record. Picked as the favorite to repeat as SEC Champs, the target was bigger than ever as SEC play opened with a tough 73-65 win over LSU in the Bayou. In the game, Tennessee could not find the range from three-point land and failed to register a trey for the first time in 422 games. The last time the Lady Vols did not make a three-pointer was on Jan. 21, 1999, at Florida. UT’s treymaster, Bjorklund, was also held scoreless for the first time since March 5, 2009. Back in Knoxville for a pair of SEC games, Tennessee tore through Alabama, 110-45, as Simmons dished 11 assists, a Lady Vol freshman record. Three days later, Ole Miss was dispatched 86-46, with a UT crowd of 14,363 on hand. Off to a fast 3-0 start in conference play, the Big Orange headed to meet a streaking Florida squad sporting a nine game homecourt winning streak. The Gators had no bite on Jan. 13, 2011, as the Lady Vols handed UF a 43-point defeat, 83-40. So dominant on this night, UT had more three-pointers at the half (seven) than Florida had field goals (six). Tennessee hoops added another line to its unparalleled history, as ESPN College GameDay Driven by State Farm® series, rolled into Knoxville for its first-ever doubleheader on Jan 15. The Vols faced Vanderbilt at noon and drew 21,198 fans. The Lady Vols versus the Vandy women followed in the nightcap and a crowd of 17,853 was treated to a 68-56 victory by UT. Overall the two games drew 39,051and it was believed to have been a record for an on-campus men’s and women’s college basketball event.

As for the game, Simmons led The Big Orange with 17 points in her 17th game in double-figures scoring while Bjorklund was the iron woman logging all 40 minutes while dropping in 14 points. Two road contests following the big win over the Commodores as the Lady Vols traveled to both South Carolina and Auburn and picked up challenging victories. UT defeated USC, 71-56, but it was just a five point game (57-52) with 4:57 left. Fortunately for the Lady Vols, Stricklen packed her defense, boards and scoring while registering a career-best 16 rebounds and a team high 18 points in the win. In the next outing, Tennessee claimed a 20-point win at Auburn, 73-53, to spoil the gathering of the largest crowd (7,536) ever to see a game at the Auburn Arena. UT’s bench came to play and outscored the homestanding team 26-6. Contributing to the bench bonanza was Baugh who scored nine points…the most since she suffered a torn ACL on Feb. 3, 2009. Finally back at home after 12 days, the Lady Vols celebrated by notching the 20th win on the season with an 81-55 decision over Mississippi State. It marked the 35th consecutive season that the Lady Vols had secured at least 20 victories. The Lady Bulldogs made a game of it in the first half and led 3735 at intermission. However, Summitt got her team’s attention at halftime and the Lady Vols opened the second half with 18 consecutive points and held State without a tally until 14:11 was left in the game. The win marked perhaps the best game of Johnson’s career tallying career bests in points (22), assists (seven) and blocks (four) and tied a career best with 18 boards. She got scoring help from Spani who celebrated her 20th birthday with 18 points in the game.

The Morrilton, Ark., native had a strong cheering section from her hometown at the game as she made 10-of-15 shots and 6-of-9 treys. Spani had another great game tying a career-best with a trio of three-point buckets and scored 18 points in a career-high 39 minutes. The February portion of the schedule started against number 15/18-ranked Kentucky in Lexington. The Wildcats didn’t really care that UT was leading the SEC and jumped out to an early advantage after forcing 17 first-half turnovers. UK trailed by a point with 9:42 left before the Lady Vols stepped on the gas to pull away and record a 73-67 win. Despite a rough night committing nine turnovers, Simmons stayed tough and focused, scoring 15 points and making some big shots down the stretch. Her three with 4:25 left in the game put UT up 65-61. She also gave the Lady Vols a 71-67 advantage with two clutch free throws with 15 seconds left in the contest. After struggling in the win over the Wildcats, UT won the next two games kind of ugly. In defeating Florida 61-39 in Knoxville, the Lady Vols’ 61 points was an SEC-low for the squad in 2010-11 and held the Gators to an opponent season-low of 39 points. The victory was Tennessee’s 300th SEC league win alltime, dating back to the 1982-83 season. Three days later, a low energy UT team arrived in Nashville to face Vanderbilt for the second time in 2011.

Fellow rookie Simmons’ trey gave UT a 44-42 advantage - its first lead since being up 5-2 at the 16:01 mark in the first half. The back-to-back close shaves got the team’s attention as they crushed South Carolina, 82-60 in Knoxville. Junior Alicia Manning came off the bench to spark the Lady Vols scoring a career-best 22 points on 8-of-11 shooting. She made her first three threepointers, tying a career high in treys. Fellow junior Lyssi Brewer also made her presence known and scored a season-best seven points – all in the game’s first 5:05 (She had seven of UT’s first 11 points).

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The University of Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team cruised to an 86-53 exhibition victory over two-time defending NAIA champions Union (Tenn.) on Nov. 7 at Thompson-Boling Arena. Union hung tough for much of the first half and drew to within 21-18 before the Big Orange closed the half on an 18-3 run to take a 39-21 lead into the locker room. Tennessee was keyed by the play of sophomore Glory Johnson, who led Tennessee with 20 points and 11 rebounds, both game-highs. After being critical of her team’s defensive performance on Tuesday night against Carson-Newman, UT coach Pat Summitt spoke much more glowingly about today’s defensive effort, but emphasized that the team still has improvements to make. Tennessee got a spark from the return of Vicki Baugh. A junior forward, Baugh had not played since suffering a second torn ACL on Feb. 3, 2009. She entered the game to a standing ovation from the 11,252 fans at Thompson-Boling Arena, something she said really meant a lot to her. Three other Lady Volunteers scored in double figures, led by Alicia Manning’s 13 points. Taber Spani and Shekinna Stricklen added 10. UT pulled down 49 boards (20 offensive) to Union’s game total of 23 and forced 19 turnovers. Union head coach Mark Campbell said he was proud of his team’s effort. Kayla Hudson led the Lady Bulldogs with 17 points on 6-of-14 shooting, including 5-of-10 from way downtown.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Led by freshman guard Meighan Simmons’ 22 points off the bench before a record crowd, No. 4 Tennessee beat Louisville 63-50 on Nov. 12 in the first regular-season game at the new KFC Yum! Center. The game set a Big East women’s attendance mark of 22,124. That topped the 19,123 that then-No. 1 Connecticut drew in a visit to Freedom Hall on Jan. 12, 2008. Shekinna Stricklen scored 14 points for Tennessee, which improved to 34-3 in season openers in Summitt’s 37 seasons. Monique Reid had 19 points for Louisville in a loss that snapped a five-game winning streak in openers for the Cardinals. It was a sloppy, physical game as both teams struggled to hold onto the ball or find the basket. Louisville led 8-2 before Tennessee took the lead for good at 11-10 on a layup by Johnson.The Lady Vols wound up with 29 turnovers. Louisville had 22. Simmons got going in her own debut hit a jumper to cap a 10-0 spurt for a 15-10 lead midway through the first half. Louisville didn’t go away, not with that crowd ramping up the energy every time the Cardinals hit a big basket. Each time the Cardinals scored to trim the lead, Tennessee answered. Reid’s fastbreak layup pulled the Cardinals within 32-31 in the opening minutes of the second half, and Cain scored six straight buckets underneath for Tennessee. Becky Burke hit a 3 that pulled Louisville within 40-36 with 12:40 left. Simmons took over. She got the rebound of her own miss and scored. She then hit back-to-back 3s before Stricklen’s layup gave Tennessee its first double-digit lead at 55-44 with 5:11 to go. UTLADYVOLS.COM

RECORDS
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- No. 4 Tennessee began a new women’s basketball season on Tuesday night, but a 11066 exhibition victory over Carson-Newman in ThompsonBoling Arena couldn’t silence coach Pat Summitt’s usual refrain. That’s defense and rebounding. The final score certainly wound up in Tennessee’s favor, and the Lady Vols never trailed. Tennessee shot 54 percent from the field, including a 61-percent mark from both the field and from 3-point range in the first half. Exhibition games are all about finding places to improve. And the Lady Vols were without three post players still nursing injuries - Alyssia Brewer, Kelley Cain and Vicki Baugh. That certainly altered UT’s front line, but even without those three (and senior Angie Bjorklund and freshman Lauren Avant) on the court, they still managed to outrebound the Lady Eagles 45-28. Freshman Meighan Simmons scored 11 points and led the team with five assists in her first game as a Lady Vol. Four other Lady Vols scored in double figures Tuesday night as well. Taber Spani hit four of her six 3-point attempts and finished with 22 points, while Shekinna Stricklen was 4-for5 beyond the 3-point line and had 15 points. Forward Alicia Manning didn’t have much trouble on the boards, grabbing 13 rebounds and scoring 15 points. Sydney Smallbone also reached double figures, scoring 10 points in 21 minutes.

GAME 3: VIRGINIA
GAME 2: CHATTANOOGA KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee assistant coach Mickie DeMoss wrote on the board before the fourth-ranked Lady Vols took the court against Chattanooga, “If you’re open, do not hesitate.” Not a problem, coach. Meighan Simmons led four players in double-digit scoring with 26 points as Tennessee hit a school-record 15 3-pointers in a 103-43 romp over Chattanooga on Monday night. The freshman, who was rewarded for her 22-point performance in her first game as a Lady Vol with a starting role against Chattanooga, got things rolling with a 3-pointer 9 seconds into the game. The Lady Vols (2-0) never let up as they hit four more 3s during their opening 19-0 run. Smothered by Tennessee’s pressing defense, Chattanooga (0-2) didn’t score until 14:22 in the first, when Alex Black fought for a jump shot to make it 19-2. Simmons immediately answered with yet another 3-point shot, and the Lady Mocs went through another 4-minute scoring drought. Tennessee baited the Lady Mocs by going inside to its tall posts and then shooting the ball outside to whichever sharpshooter was wide open. The Lady Vols grabbed a 36-point lead off a Sydney Smallbone jumper with less than a minute to go before the break, but a free throw by Chattanooga’s Tenisha Townsend cut it to 51-16. By then the Lady Vols had shot 58.8 percent from the field, made 11 of 18 from behind the arc and had three players in double-digit scoring. Angie Bjorklund finished with 20 points, Taber Spani had 14 and Kamiko Williams added 12.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Lady Volunteers overcame sluggish defensive play with accurate shooting against a speedy Virginia team to capture an 85-73 win at Thompson-Boling Arena on Nov. 18. Strong shooting overcame the defensive woes as the Lady Vols shot 53.1 percent against the Cavaliers in the first half. Bjorklund, who scored 24 points in a win at Virginia a season ago, made six 3-pointers and scored 26 points while playing all 40 minutes. Shekinna Stricklen added 15 points for Tennessee, and Meighan Simmons had 12. Ariana Moorer led Virginia with 24 points, Paulisha Kellum added 18 and Telia McCall had 10 points and eight rebounds. Virginia got off to a quick start, hitting its first eight shots and used a 9-0 run to take a 17-9 lead with 15:45 in the first half. Tennessee switched between their typical man-to-man defense and a zone to slow the Cavaliers down and rally back. A 3-point basket by Stricklen tied the game at 32 with 6:42 in the first half, and the Lady Vols held a 41-39 lead at halftime. Bjorklund opened the second half with a 3-pointer, launching an 8-0 run that gave Tennessee a 49-39 lead with 15:36 left. Virginia didn’t score until a pair of free throws by Ataira Franklin with 14:39 to go. The shooting effort remained cool as the Cavaliers hit only 41.7 percent of their second-half shots. The Lady Vols pushed the margin to as many as 18 points -- enough to sustain a late run by Virginia.

GAME 4: ARIZONA STATE KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Junior Glory Johnson grabbed 15 rebounds and scored 14 points inside as the Lady Volunteers beat Arizona State 80-64 on Nov. 21. Both Tennessee and Arizona State used smothering defense in the first half, but the Sun Devils’ shooting efforts fell apart halfway through under pressure by the Lady Vols. The Sun Devils wouldn’t score again in the half after taking an 18-17 lead on a jumper by Adrianne Thomas with 8:38 to go. The Lady Vols used a 16-0 run during that time to grab a 33-18 lead heading into halftime. Tennessee (4-0) took advantage of 11 first-half turnovers by Arizona State, turning them into 12 points. Instead of relying on Angie Bjorklund, their senior shooting guard, the Lady Vols spread the ball around. Shekinna Stricklen led the team with 18 points, Kamiko Williams and Taber Spani each added 12 and Meighan Simmons had 10. The Sun Devils (2-1) have relied on their own defense and rebounding to carry them this season. They limited their first two opponents to 33 percent shooting from the field while forcing a combined 46 turnovers and outrebounding their opponents an average 53-30.5. Instead, it was Lady Vols who won the rebounding battle, 45-36, as they hit 45.6 percent of their shots from the field. Arizona State shot 51.9 percent in the second half, but it wasn’t enough to overcome their 28.6 percent first-half shooting, and the Lady Vols’ lead never dropped below 13 points after halftime.

ST. THOMAS, USVI -- The fourth-ranked Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team got a taste of its own medicine on Saturday night at the University of the Virgin Islands Sports and Fitness Center in the final game of the “Reef Division” at the 2010 Paradise Jam. No. 12/13-ranked Georgetown forced the Lady Vols to commit 29 turnovers, resulting in 31 points en route to a 69-58 victory. Heading into this matchup, Tennessee had committed just 25 turnovers in two games on the island and forced the opposition (Missouri and Georgia Tech) into committing 49 turnovers that resulted in 60 points. Georgetown captured the “Reef Division” title behind the play of guard Sugar Rodgers, who scored 28 points against the Lady Vols and was named MVP. Joining her on the all-tournament team were RaeShara Brown, of Missouri, Alex Montgomery, of Georgia Tech, Monica McNutt, of Georgetown, and Tennessee’s Glory Johnson and Meighan Simmons. Johnson had her second consecutive double-double with 13 points and 12 boards, while Simmons scored 11 points. Georgetown came into the game shooting just 27-percent from three, but hit three treys in the first two minutes, 15 seconds of the game and raced out to a 29-22 lead at halftime. Georgetown stretched the lead to as much as 17 points, 5942 in the second half when point guard Rubylee Wright found Alexa Roche for a layup on a backdoor play with 7:14 left in the game. The Lady Vols fought back to within nine, 65-56, with 59 seconds left in the game on a layup by Johnson, but the Hoyas, who never trailed, held on for the victory. UTLADYVOLS.COM
UNIVERSITY
ST. THOMAS, USVI -- Just before the start of the second half on Friday night, the power went off and it took several minutes for the lights to come back on at the University of the Virgin Islands’ Sports and Fitness Center. With 11:28 remaining in the contest, they went out again. And again two more times in the second half. The fourth-ranked Tennessee Lady Volunteer basketball team had already said good night to the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets long before the first blackout, however, racing out to a 46-17 halftime lead en route to a 66-42 victory in the “Reef Division” of the Paradise Jam tournament in a game that gave new meaning to “Black Friday.” An island-wide power outage caused delays of 13:32, 11:30, 10:45 and 7:45 for a 43:15 total delay. Relying heavily on its zone defense, Tennessee (6-0) held the Yellow Jackets (3-4) to just one field goal over a 13-minute, 28-second span of the first half and rattled off a 27-2 spurt before the halftime buzzer. No Yellow Jacket reached double figures in scoring and junior forward Glory Johnson grabbed a career-best 18 boards and scored a game-high 15 points. Tennessee led 12-11 before junior point guard Shekinna Stricklen blocked a Tyuanna Marshall layup, grabbed the rebound, pushed the ball past half court and pulled up for a three-pointer to spark the 27-2 run. Freshman Meighan Simmons continued her stellar start, scoring 14 points.
GAME 7: No. 12/13 GEORGETOWN
RECORDS
ST. THOMAS, USVI -- The fourth-ranked University of Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team jumped out to an 11-2 lead in the first five minutes, 15 seconds of the opening stanza and never looked back, racing to an 82-44 victory over Missouri in its first game of the “Reef Division” at the 2010 Paradise Jam tournament at the University of the Virgin Islands’ Sports and Fitness Center. The Lady Vols improve to 5-0 on the season, while the Tigers drop to 1-2. All 10 Lady Vols that played made a basket, and Meighan Simmons was UT’s leading scorer with 14 points. The 5-9 freshman from Cibolo, Texas, has now started her career off by reaching double figures in her first five collegiate games. Raeshara Brown, of Missouri, led all scorers with 18 points, but the rest of the Tigers couldn’t muster anything offensively. UT used stifling defense throughout the game to hamper Missouri’s attack throughout the game. The Tigers missed six of their first seven shot attempts, and committed 15 turnovers to just four for the Lady Vols in the first half. After racing out to an 11-2 lead behind three buckets by 6-6 junior center Kelley Cain, the Lady Vols allowed six straight Tigers’ points. Tennessee answered by going on a 17-3 run to take a commanding 28-11 lead. The Lady Vols scored 10 straight points to open the second half, taking a 53-24 lead at the 17:19 mark. Tennessee finished the game shooting 50.8 percent, while holding the Tigers to 34.1 percent from the field.

GAME 8: LAMAR KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Meighan Simmons opened the game with consecutive 3-pointers. When the final buzzer sounded, the freshman had broken Tennessee’s single-game record for 3s, most recently set by teammate Angie Bjorklund. Simmons, making her first career start at point guard, scored 28 points and sank her eighth and final 3 with 2:03 left as the Lady Volunteers (No. 8 ESPN/USA Today, No. 9 AP) beat Lamar 99-55 on Dec. 1. She surpassed the previous record of seven, most recently set by Bjorklund against Arkansas on Jan. 24, 2008. Tennessee (7-1) jumped out to a 12-0 lead. Lamar, a team that returned three starters from last year’s squad that reached the NCAA tournament, missed its first nine shots before Monique Whittaker hit a layup with 15:12 left in the half. Lamar had problems hanging onto the ball, committing 29 turnovers that led to 33 points for Tennessee, which also got 26 second-chance points by outrebounding the Lady Cardinals 5440. The Lady Vols’ early points came mostly from the perimeter and mostly from Simmons, who had 17 points by halftime on 6-of-10 shooting and five 3s. The Lady Cardinals (5-2) couldn’t keep up, and Tennessee took a 49-27 lead into halftime. After the break, Simmons cooled off a bit, giving her teammates a chance to light up the scoreboard. Shekinna Stricklen fought her way into the paint, scoring 14 points and grabbing 12 rebounds. Kamiko Williams had 13 points, and Glory Johnson had 12 rebounds. Tennessee pulled away in the second half and led by as many as 45 with 2:10 left as Lamar shot 30.6 percent. Ang Green led the Lady Cardinals with 15 points.

NORFOLK, Va. -- Meighan Simmons tied Candace Parker by reaching double figures in her first nine collegiate games and the No. 9/8 Tennessee Lady Volunteer basketball team used a debilitating full-court pressure to rout Old Dominion, 74-44, on Dec. 5 in front a record crowd of 7,774 at the Ted Constant Center. The Lady Vols (8-1) made 13 steals, forced 22 turnovers and scored 20 points off of the Lady Monarchs’ (3-3) givebacks. Junior forward Alicia Manning and sophomore guard Kamiko Williams led the stellar defensive effort by recording three steals apiece, as ODU shot just 30.9 percent from the field. While Manning and Williams reeked havoc on the defensive end, Simmons continued her fantastic offensive play this season. The Cibolo, Texas, native made a fade-away jumper with her body angled behind the hoop before barely beating the halftime buzzer with a running bank shots to give her 11 at the intermission. She finished with 14 and is one game away from tying Glory Johnson, who started her career with 10 double-figure scoring games. Chamique Holdsclaw (14 games) is the only other Lady to start her career on such a prolific pace. Tennessee’s first basket of the second half didn’t come until the 16:34 mark when Angie Bjorklund drilled a threepointer to put Tennessee ahead 45-26. Bjorklund scored Tennessee’s first eight points of the second half. Old Dominion senior guard Jasmine Parker became the 28th Lady Monarch to score 1,000 career points. She scored a game-high 16 points.

GAME 10: TEXAS AUSTIN, Texas -- Senior guard Angie Bjorklund exploded for 20 points in the first half to lead the No. 8/7-ranked Tennessee Lady Volunteer basketball team to a 92-77 victory over No. 21/24 Texas in a run-and-gun affair at the Erwin Center. After missing her first four shot attempts, Bjorklund didn’t flinch. She made eight of her next 10 field goal tries, including four threes to lead UT to a 48-42 halftime advantage. At many times in the first half, it was Bjorklund and Texas’ Kathleen Nash, trading three-point bombs. Nash had 16 firsthalf points and also made four treys before the intermission. She finished with 21 points and five threes to pace the Longhorns, who used only seven players and tired in the second half. Texas kept in close early in the first half, tying the game at 11-11 five minutes into the contest, before a Bjorklund three ignited a 9-0 run and a lead UT would never relinquish. Bjorklund didn’t score after halftime, but the Lady Vols didn’t need her to, as Tennessee outrebounded Texas, 25-15 in the second half. Freshman Meighan Simmons scored 18 points in her return to her home state, while Kamiko Williams scored a season-high 14 points in a career-high 37 minutes and Glory Johnson tallied 13. Junior Shekinna Stricklin started the game at the four spot and finished with her third double-double of the season (10 pts, 11 rebs), but it was her behind-the-head no-look flick to Williams for a layup that sealed the win with three minutes left in the game, putting UT ahead 90-69.

THE SEC
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Shekinna Stricklen became the 35th Lady Vol to score 1,000 career points and Angie Bjorklund tied the UT career three-pointers mark, as the No. 5/6-ranked Tennessee women’s basketball team ran away from ETSU with a dominant second half, 102-53, on Dec. 22. The Lady Vols led the Lady Bucs 46-32 at the intermission, but made 16 of their first 19 shots after halftime to blow the game open. UT shot a season-best 60 percent (21-35) in the second half and outscored ETSU, 56-21. Stricklen finished with seven points, and reached the 1,000-point plateau at the 16:19 mark in the first half. Bjorklund tied the Lady Vol career three-pointers record with her 266th trey at the 12:30 mark of the second half. She scored 16 points and made 4-of-6 from behind the arc, as six Lady Vols reached double figures and Tennessee won at home for the 25th consecutive time. Taber Spani scored a season-high 15 points and grabbed a career-high 12 rebounds – doubling her previous career-best on the glass – for her first career double-double. Kelley Cain nabbed season-highs of 12 points, 10 boards and four blocks in 17 minutes. She tallied her first double-double of 2010-11 and the seventh of her career. Cain had four blocks in just over a minute late in the first half – from 2:05-:52. Also reaching double figures were Glory Johnson (15), Meighan Simmons (13) and Alica Manning (11). Tennessee opened the second half on a 7-0 run to stretch its lead to 53-32. ETSU didn’t make a shot in the second half until the 16:21 mark. A 13-0 run sparked by a Spani jumper at 14:43 in the second half and capped by a Spani layup (13:06) put UT up 72-40. UTLADYVOLS.COM
UNIVERSITY
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- An ice-in-the-veins three-pointer by freshman guard Meighan Simmons with 48 seconds sent the sixth-ranked Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team to its 41st all-time overtime contest where it would not be denied, defeating No. 3/2 Stanford, 82-72, in front of 14,197 at Thompson-Boling Arena. Tennessee redshirt junior center Kelley Cain missed a pair of free throws with just under three minutes remaining in the extra period, but she rebounded her own miss and put back a layup to put the Lady Vols up 75-70 in what turned out to be a pivotal play of the game as the Lady Vols outscored the Cardinal 12-2 and forced the team into 0-for-6 shooting from the field in the bonus frame Coincidentally, UT’s previous two overtime games had come against Stanford with the Lady Vols taking down the Cardinal in the last matchup in Knoxville, 79-69, on Dec. 21, 2008. Tennessee raced out to a 16-6 lead and made five of its first six three-point attempts to go up by as much as 14 points in the first half (30-16). However, Stanford fought back behind senior guard Jeanette Pohlen, who scored a game-high 24 points and made six treys before fouling out in overtime. Pohlen made four threes in the second half, including a trey that put the Cardinal, which shot 62.5 percent in the second half, ahead, 59-55, with 8:12 left in the game. Stanford stretched its lead to 63-57 before Tennessee used an 8-0 run to take a 65-63 lead on a layup by sophomore Taber Spani with 4:41 left. Pohlen hit her sixth three to put Stanford up 70-67 with 1:07 remaing, but Simmons answered on UT’s next possession and the Lady Vols’ defense stepped up in overtime. Simmons finished with 23, while senior Angie Bjorklund (16), junior Shekinna Stricklen (15) and Spani (10) also reached double figures.
GAME 13: ETSU
RECORDS
WACO, Texas -- The No. 6-ranked Tennessee Lady Volunteer basketball team was held to a season-low 25.0 percent shooting from the field, as No. 2/3 Baylor slugged out a 65-54 victory in front of a sold-out crowd at the Ferrell Center. Despite making just 18-of-72 shot attempts, the Lady Vols were within nine points of the Lady Bears until the last minute of the game thanks to a 53-43 edge on the boards. The Lady Vols dominated the glass, but could not contain Baylor’s sophomore star Brittney Griner. The 6-8 center scored 16 points, grabbed five boards and tallied six blocks by halftime. Baylor led 23-21 before going on an 11-0 run to end the first half. The Lady Bears held the Lady Vols without a field goal the final 5:23 of the first stanza to take a commandeing 34-21 lead. After intermission, UT came out fighting, scoring the first six points of the quarter on a Glory Johnson free throw, a layup by freshman Meighan Simmons and a three by Simmons. UT’s last ditch effort came when Simmons was fouled twice while attempting threes in the last two minutes. She made all six free throws to cut Baylor’s lead to 62-53. However, the Lady Vols didn’t hit another field goal the rest of the way. Simmons scored 22 points on 6-of-21 shooting, while senior Angie Bjorklund was the only other Lady Vol to reach double figures, scoring 10, as UT recorded season-lows for points (54) and assists (5). Junior Shekinna Stricklen had 11 boards, but shot 1-of-9 from the field and committed six turnovers. Griner finished with 21 points, seven boards and nine blocks for Baylor, while freshman Odyssey Sims scored a career-best 24.

GAME 15: LSU
GAME 14: RUTGERS KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The No. 5/6-ranked Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team got record-setting performances from senior guard Angie Bjorklund and sophomore forward Taber Spani, as UT paid tribute to Melissa McCray-Dukes with a dominating 8751 win over Rutgers on Dec. 30 at Thompson-Boling Arena. Bjorklund set the Lady Vol career record for three-pointers with her 267th trey at the 18:34 mark in the first half. She finished with 11 points and increased her career-leading mark to 268 treys. Spani scored a career-high 22 points in her fifth start of the season. Tennessee improved to 11-0 all-time when Spani reaching double figures. The story of the game, however, was the Lady Vols’ tribute to Melissa McCray-Dukes. McCray-Dukes, who was a starter on Tennessee’s first two national championship teams in 1987 and 1989, passed away on Dec. 27 after a hard fought battle with breast cancer. For the Rutgers game, the Lady Vols wore black No. 35 patches on their shorts honoring McCray-Dukes. Tennessee came out playing with an intensity that would’ve made McCray-Dukes, a tenacious defender in her day, proud. UT jumped out to a 30-12 lead at the 9:23 mark after three consecutive layups by junior forward Alicia Manning and a three by Spani. After Rutgers fought back behind the play of April Sykes (15 points) to make the score 40-29 at the intermission, Tennessee came out on fire to start the second half. The Lady Vols scored the first nine points after halftime and never looked back, shooting 57.7 percent for the final 20 minutes. UT’s depth was especially impressive as the Lady Vol bench held a 24-1 scoring advantage against the undermanned Scarlet Knights, who dressed only nine players and were without Sykes for much of the second half because of cramps. 72
BATON ROUGE, La. -- Depth was the difference for No. 5/6 Tennessee in the 73-65 win over LSU on Jan. 2 in the Southeastern Conference season opener at the PMAC. Despite not making a three-pointer in a game for the first time in 422 games - a streak that dated back to Jan. 21, 1999, the Lady Vols got 40 bench points and shot 50 percent overall from the field for the third consecutive game. Leading the way off the bench for UT was junior forward Glory Johnson. The 6-3 Knoxville, Tenn., native was one rebound shy of a double-double at halftime and finished with a season-best 19 points and 15 boards. She made 8-of13 shots and combined with redshirt junior Kelley Cain for Tennessee’s finest post performance of the season. Cain, who started, made 9-of-13 field goals to tie a career-high with 19 points, while adding eight boards and four blocks. The play of sophomore guard Kamiko Williams (13 points) and junior forward Alicia Manning (eight points, four offensive boards) was vital for the Lady Vols, as starters Angie Bjorklund and Taber Spani were both held scoreless. While the Lady Vols went 0-fo-7 from behind the arc, they were stellar from the free throw line shooting a season-best 82.6 percent (19-23). Tennessee held LSU scoreless for a nearly four-minute stretch of the first half (9:05 to 5:15), going on a 13-0 run to take a 27-20 lead. Trailing 20-14, Johnson scored seven straight points to propel the run. Cain capped the run with a layup with 5:33 left before halftime. LSU went on a 6-2 run after halftime to come within two points, but Tennessee answered with a 12-0 run started by back-to-back Cain buckets.
TENNESSEE LADY VOL BASKETBALL /// 2011-12 MEDIA GUIDE
GAME 16: ALABAMA KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- A perfect shooting night from senior Angie Bjorklund and a Lady Vol freshman assists record from Meighan Simmons keyed the No. 5/6-ranked Tennessee women’s basketball team’s highest scoring output since 2002, as UT routed Alabama, 110-45, on Jan. 6 at Thompson-Boling Arena. After being held scoreless at LSU on Jan. 2, Bjorklund exploded for 16 first-half points on 5-of-5 shooting, including four treys, to lead the Lady Vols to a commanding 58-22 halftime advantage. Alabama actually held the lead - briefly - in the game when Erica Russell made a three to put UA up 3-2 at the 18:57 mark in the first half. Tennessee held the Crimson Tide scoreless for the next 6:57, however, as Bjorklund made a trio of treys to spark a 22-0 Big Orange run that put Tennessee ahead, 24-3, just eight minutes into the contest. Simmons had five assists in the game-breaking run, nine at halftime and finished with 11 dimes, becoming the first Lady Vol rookie to reach double figures in shares. She added 15 points to become just the 10th Lady Vol to record a points-assists doubledouble. With Simmons wheeling and dealing and Bjorklund, as well as sophomore Taber Spani, hitting nothing but net in the first half, Tennessee set season bests for points (58) and shooting percentage (59.4) before the intermission. Spani finished with 15 points and a career-best five assists, including a full court bomb to Simmons for a layup in the second half. Junior Alicia Manning had 11 points and went 9-of-9 from the free throw line, while classmate Glory Johnson scored a seasonhigh 19 points off the bench for the second straight game. Sophomore Kamiko Williams swatted four shots and Kelley Cain had three blocks as UT recorded a season-high 12 putbacks. Led by Manning, Tennessee made 31-of-37 free throws for a season-best 83.8 percentage.

GAME 19: VANDERBILT KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The No. 5/6-ranked Tennessee Lady Volunteer basketball won it’s 29th consecutive game at Thompson-Boling Arena in front of a season-high crowd of 17,853 when in-state rival Vanderbilt traveled to Knoxville on Jan. 15. In the nightcap of ESPN’s first-ever GameDay doubleheader, and on just one day of rest, the Lady Vols defeated the Commodores, 68-56. Junior Glory Johnson reached double figures for the seventh straight game, scoring 14 points and grabbing nine boards off the bench. Senior Angie Bjorklund also netted 14 points, while freshman Meighan Simmons tallied a team-best 17 points. The pair, however, combined to shoot just 11 of 31 from the field, including 8 for 26 from behind the arc. UT’s perimeter heavy offense allowed the Commodores back in the game late. Vanderbilt was down by as many as 22 in the second half, but cut Tennessee’s lead down to eight with just over a minute to go. VU outscored UT in the paint, 22-16, as junior center Kelley Cain was held to just four points on 1-for-5 shooting. Cain did, however, snag a season-best 13 rebounds and block four shots. Cain’s effort on the glass led the Lady Vols to a 52-39 edge on the boards. The Lady Vols raced out to a 21-5 lead at the 7:53 mark in the first half despite making just two of their first 13 shots. The Commodores started even worse from the field, missing 20 straight shots over a 9:23 span and allowing Tennessee to make an 18-0 run in the first half. Vanderbilt shot just 7-for-37 from the field in the first half for a shooting percentage of 18.9 percent – the worst by an opponent in the first half this season. For the game, Vandy shot 33.3 percent, as Tennessee held its seventh straight opponent below 40 percent shooting from the field.

HISTORY
GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- After back-to-back blowout wins over SEC opponents in Knoxville, the No. 5/6 ranked Tennessee Lady Volunteer basketball team expected a stiffer test on the road against Florida. Instead, UT got more of the same, hammering Florida, 83-40, at the O’Connell Center. The Gator’s 40 points are the lowest scored by a UT opponent since San Francisco scored just 34 against the Lady Vols in Knoxville on Dec. 22, 2009. Tennessee raced to an 11-3 lead to start the game behind two quick baskets by redshirt junior Kelley Cain and a three and a layup from senior Angie Bjorklund, who scored all 16 of her points before intermission. Tennessee ended the first half on a 25-4 run over the last 11 minutes of the first half. Seven different Lady Vols scored during the run, which was capped by a three-pointer from Simmons just five seconds before the intermission buzzer. UT held Florida to just one field goal – a three pointer by Brittany Shine at the 2:49 mark – over that first half 11-minute stretch to take a commanding 47-15 lead into the break. The game was so lopsided at halftime that Tennessee had more three pointers (7) than Florida had field goals (6). The second half evoked more the same. UT scored 10 consecutive points after a Florida three to start the second stanza, and the route was on. In its last three games, Tennessee is outscoring its opponents by an average of 49.3 points per contest. Junior Shekinna Stricklen recorded her second straight double double with 11 points and 12 boards, as classmate Glory Johnson finished with 12 points, nine boards and three blocks.

THE SEC
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Shekinna Stricklen took her coach’s advice. After a one-on-one meeting with Lady Vol head coach Pat Summitt, where the all-time winningest coach in NCAA history told the 6-2 guard/forward she should be an All-American, Stricklen responded with her best effort of the season in leading No. 5/6 Tennessee to am 86-46 victory at Thompson-Boling Arena. Stricklen tied a season-high with 18 points and grabbed a season-best 13 rebounds for her 10th career double double and fourth of the 2010-11 campaign. Stricklen made 3-of-5 three-point attempts, and her performance on the offensive end and on the glass sparked Tennessee to its fifth consecutive 50.0 percent or better shooting performance and a resounding 53-31 advantage on the boards. The Lady Vols were stout on the defensive end from the opening tip, holding UM without a field goal until the 14:29 mark in the first half. The Lady Vols took some time to get going too, though. It wasn’t until 9:30 left in the first half that UT finally hit the gas pedal. After Ole Miss point guard Valencia McFarland’s jumper brought the Rebels within four, 16-12, the Lady Vols responded by scoring 12 straight points to go ahead 28-14 on a Kamiko Williams putback at the 5:35 mark. Leading 42-22 at halftime, Tennessee continued to dominate in the second half, as freshman Meighan Simmons contributed 16 of her 18 points after intermission, and UT held Ole Miss without a field goal for over five minutes (12:08-7:04). Perhaps the most impressive stat on the day for the Lady Vols, who won their 28th straight home game - both the nation’s fourthlongest streak and the fourth-longest streak in UT history, was 4-for-23. That’s what the Lady Vols held Ole Miss’ start guard Kayla Melson to from the field, holding the SEC’s fourth-leading scorer to just 10 points a game after erupting for a career-high 30 in a win over Vanderbilt.

GAME 20: SOUTH CAROLINA COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Do-it-all junior Shekinna Stricklen’s third double double in four games and a 16-point second-half explosion from star rookie Meighan Simmons led the No. 5/6-ranked Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team past a feisty South Carolina squad on Jan. 20 at Colonial Life Arena. The Lady Vols had six turnovers and shot just 2-of-8 in the first five minutes of the game, and were trailing 12-4, as the undersized Gamecocks applied relentless pressure. UT quickly righted its ship, however, holding USC scoreless for nearly seven minutes of the first half and using an 11-0 run to take a 15-12 lead on a Taber Spani trey with 9:22 remaining until intermission. In a seesaw first half, senior Angie Bjorklund sent the Lady Vols to locker room with a 33-26 halftime lead after drilling an off-thedribble three to beat the buzzer. After the break, Simmons’got rolling, scoring her first points of the game on an “And-1” layup three minutes into the final stanza to put UT ahead by double figures, 40-30, for the first time in the game. Simmons continued to light it up throughout the final 20 minutes, shooting 5-of-9, including 1-for-1 on treys and making all five of her free throw attempts in a tight game. South Carolina hung around till the game’s end, cutting UT’s lead to just five points, 57-52, when Markesia Grant pickpocketed Simmons for a fastbreak layup with 4:57 left in the game. Free throws from Simmons and putbacks from Stricklen and redshirt junior center Kelley Cain down the stretch kept the Lady Vols in control despite committing 24 turnovers. Stricklen finished with a season-high 18 points and a careerbest 16 boards. Cain joined her teammate with her eighth career double double (11 points and 11 boards) to go along with a season-best six blocks. Spani was huge in the first half, scoring all nine of her points on 3-for-4 shooting from downtown, as Tennessee’s 55.6 percent three-point shooting (5-9) for the game was its best this season.

GAME 21: AUBURN AUBURN, Ala. -- Playing in front of their largest crowd ever at Auburn Arena, the Auburn Tigers had no answer for No. 5/6-ranked Tennessee’s size and depth, losing 73-53 in front of 7,536 fans. The Lady Vols held a commanding 38-20 edge on the boards and scored 26 bench points. Junior forward Glory Johnson came off the bench to score 16 points and grab 13 rebounds for her fifth double double of the season, while classmate Shekinna Stricklen tied a season-best with 18 points for the second straight game. Redshirt junior Kelley Cain was her usual dominant self, punishing the Tigers to the tune of nine points and 10 boards in the first half. She didn’t score after the break, but finished with 12 boards, three blocks, three steals and three assists. The play of Cain, Johnson and Stricklen in the paint enabled UT to weather a poor shooting performance from its backcourt and a 6:37 first half stretch without a field goal. The Lady Vols’ top three guards, senior Angie Bjorklund, freshman Meighan Simmons and sophomore Kamiko Williams shot a combined 0-for-6 before the intermission. Bjorklund scored seven points in the second half, Simmons added five and Williams dished four assists, but the real star of the final 20 minutes was rs-junior Vicki Baugh. Baugh scored nine points in just seven minutes. It was the most points she had scored since Feb. 3, 2009. Stricklen paced the Lady Vols early on. She drilled her second three with 10:34 left in the first half to put Tennessee up, 22-12, and gave herself a dozen points after starting the game 5-of-6 from the field. However, UT didn’t make a field goal again until 3:57 to go in the first half. A 7-0 run sparked by a three from sophomore Taber Spani gave Tennessee a 34-19 lead at the break. After the intermission, UT quickly went ahead 46-26 on a bucket by Spani, but Auburn refused to be blown out. UT had another fantastic defensive effort, holding its ninth straight opponent below 40 percent shooting. The win was also UT’s 10th straight since falling at Baylor on Dec. 14.
TENNESSEE LADY VOL BASKETBALL /// 2011-12 MEDIA GUIDE
GAME 22: MISSISSIPPI STATE KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Whatever Lady Vol head coach Pat Summitt said at halftime worked. After trailing at the break for just the third time this season, the No. 5/6-ranked Tennessee women’s basketball team exploded for 18 consecutive points after the intermission en route to an 8155 victory over Mississippi State on Jan. 27 at Thompson-Boling Arena. UT stayed perfect in the SEC (8-0) and at home (11-0) in 201011, while pushing its TBA winning streak to 30 games. With starters Angie Bjorklund (foot injury) and Kelley Cain (flu) out for the game, junior Glory Johnson was called to start for the first time since the ETSU game on Dec. 22. The 6-3 forward responded with the finest game of her career, tallying career bests in scoring (22 points), blocks (four) and assists (seven) while tying her best mark in rebounding (18). She had a double double in the first half (her sixth this season) and made 8-of-14 shots. Despite Johnson’s dominant performance, the Lady Vols struggled to defend in the first half. Mississippi State shot 58.3 percent from three in the first half and went ahead by as many as eight points, 33-25, on Porsha Porter’s third trey with 3:54 left in the first half. Tennessee opened the second half on an 18-0 run, while holding the Lady Bulldogs without a point for the first 5:49 of the second half. Freshman Meighan Simmons made a three 10 seconds after the break and UT never looked back. Simmons finished with 12 points on 5-of-17 shooting, while sophomore Taber Spani scored 18 on her 20th birthday. Sophomore Kamiko Williams scored 10 points and Shekinna Stricklen tallied her seventh double double of the season (10 pts and 10 boards) to go along with four steals. UT won its 20th game for the 35th straight season.

GAME 25: FLORIDA KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Despite shooting just 38.5 percent from the field, the fourth-ranked Tennessee Lady Volunteer basketball team was able to secure another blowout victory in the SEC with a 61-39 triumph over Florida on Feb. 10. Returning to Thompson-Boling Arena for the first time in two weeks, the Lady Vols came out flat, making just 9 of 27 field goals in the first half. Despite the poor shooting half, UT still led 27-18 at the break behind its strong defense. Florida shot just 21.9 percent in the first half and 25 percent for the game, as UT forced 24 turnovers and turned those miscues into 27 points. The Lady Vols held the Gators to a 2010-11 season opponent-low of 39 points - the lowest total by a UT opponent since San Francisco tallied just 34 points on Dec. 22, 2009. As has been the common thread for the team lately, junior Shekinna Stricklen and Glory Johnson led the Lady Vols in scoring with 17 and 16 points, respectively. Stricklen was instrumental in Tennessee’s two big runs that clinched the game. After Florida took a 7-4 lead on a Ndidi Madu layup at the 15:16 mark, the Lady Vols went on a 14-0 run sparked by treys from Stricklen and sophomore Taber Spani to take an 18-7 lead just over 10 minutes into the contest. UT’s stingy defense held the Gators scoreless until the 9:32 mark after the Madu layup - a five-minute, 44-second span. UT opened the second half on all cylinders, scoring 12 straight points right out of the break. Stricklen had a couple of steals and a pair of assists on Glory Johnson layups during the game-breaking spurt that put Tennessee ahead, 39-18 with 16:37 left in the game. Florida head coach Amanda Butler tried to stop the run with two timeouts in the first three minutes of the second fram, but it was all for naught, as UT cruised to 14th straight victory and moved to 11-0 in the SEC. Stricklen scored 12 of her game-high 17 in the first half, making 4-of-5 shots from the field. She added four assists and three secondhalf steals. Redshirt junior Vicki Baugh also had great game, grabbing seven boards and dishing three assists in just 13 minutes. Freshman Lauren Avant added a career-best seven points.

HISTORY
LEXINGTON, Ky. -- The fourth-ranked Tennessee Lady Volunteer basketball team shook off 17 first half turnovers and used a hot shooting second stanza and a commanding edge on the glass to defeat the No. 15/18-ranked Kentucky Wildcats at Memorial Coliseum on Feb. 7. In their first game in over a week, the Lady Vols were flustered early on by Kentucky’s opportunistic frantic press in the game’s first 20 minutes. Led by reigning SEC Player of the Year Victoria Dunlap, who made her first three shots - including just her fourth trey of the season, the Wildcats jumped out to an 11-4 lead before the first media timeout. An 8-0 run just after the 15:30 mark in the first half sparked by a pair of double-clutch finishes from reserve guard Kamiko Williams placed the Lady Vols back into the game. A back and forth first half gave UK a 33-30 advantage at halftime, and the Wildcats led for the first three minutes of the second frame. That’s when junior guard/forward Shekinna Stricklen went to work, however. Stricklen gave UT its first lead, 38-36, of the second half on a three with 16:55 left in the game. After scoring just two points in the first half, Stricklen exploded for 18 after the break, notching her eighth double double of the season in the process with 20 points and 12 rebounds. She paced an offense that made 61.2 percent of it’s second half shots and a season-best 55.8 percent overall for the game. The bulk of Stricklen’s points came during a blistering 16-2 run by the Big Orange that gave the Lady Vols a 48-38 lead with just under 14 minutes remaining. Behind a season-high home crowd of 7,192, the Wildcats didn’t back down, though. In the blink of an eye, UK was back within one after A’dia Mathies made back-to-back three-pointers to make the score 54-53 with 9:43 left in the contest. UT, which held a ridiculous 45-23 edge on the glass, snatched up nearly every miss down the stretch. No board was bigger than Stricklen’s putback of her own miss that gave the Lady Vols a 67-61 lead with 2:15 left in the game. Still, Kentucky was within two points, 67-65, with 14.5 seconds remaining, but freshman Meighan Simmons made a pair of free throws to make it a two-possession game. Simmons suffered nine turnovers, but didn’t wilt under the pressure, finishing with 15 points. Williams also tied a season-best with 14 points, while junior forward Glory Johnson nabbed her fourth straight double double.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Junior forward Shekinna Stricklen was glad to be home. The 6-2 Morrilton, Ark., native tied a career-high with 26 points, while leading the No. 5/6-ranked Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team to a 72-53 victory at Bud Walton Arena on Jan. 30. She finished 10-of-15 from the field and 6-of-9 from three to go along with four boards. Her 10 field goals tied a career best, while the six three-pointers set a new personal best. Sophomore wing Taber Spani also put on a show for family and friends who traveled from Lee’s Summitt, Mo., to see her play. She scored 18 points, including three treys. Sophomore Kamiko Williams added 10 points, while junior Glory Johnson recorded her third consecutive double double with 14 points and 12 rebounds, as well as three steals. With close to 60 family and friends making the short drive to Fayetteville, Stricklen shot out of the start like a cannon, making her first four field goal attempts, including her first three trey tries. Her third trey of the game gave Tennessee a 16-12 lead with 11:21 remaining in the first half. Arkansas kept it close in the first half behind guard C’eira Ricketts (12 points) and center Sarah Watkins (15 points), but UT capped the first half with an impressive run. The Lady Vols exploded for eight straight points in under a minute towards the end of the first half to take a 39-27 lead into the break. A three-point swish from Spani at 2:13 sparked the run. She followed with another long jumper, before Stricklen capped the run with her fourth trey of the opening half with 1:17 to go before the intermission. Stricklen had 18 points in the first half which tied her previous season best. The Razorback made a brief run early in the second half, closing UT’s advantage to four points with 15:11 left in the game behind big three’s from Watkins and Lyndsay Harris. The Lady Vols answered with an 11-3 run, however, and held UA to just six second half paint points and 33.9 percent shooting for the game.

GAME 26: VANDERBILT NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The fourth-ranked Tennessee Lady Volunteer squad came out flat in its third game in seven days at Vanderbilt on Feb. 13, but still captured a 65-57 victory over the Commodores to improve to 12-0 in the SEC. UT scored just 15 points on 5-of-25 shooting (season-low 20 percent) in the first half and trailed Vanderbilt, 28-15. It was third lowest scoring half in Lady Vol history behind the 13 points UT scored at Rutgers on Jan. 3, 2009 and the 14 they managed versus Virginia in the NCAA Regional Finals on March 25, 1996. Tennessee came back and won both of those contests, as well. After an intense halftime speech from Summitt, the Lady Vols played much better in the second half, shooting 51.5 percent (17-for-33) and outscoring Vanderbilt, 50-29, over the final 20 minutes. The Lady Vols used a 16-3 run in the final frame to take control of the game after trailing by 13 at the break - tying for UT’s worst halftime deficit of the season that came at Baylor on Dec. 14. Freshman Lauren Avant, in only her 10th game of the season because of injury and illness setbacks, was the comeback’s catalyst, scoring six straight points over a 32-second span to pull UT within one point, 42-41 with 7:33 left in the contest. She also had three second-half steals in 17 minutes after the break and finished with a career-best 11 points in 20 minutes. Classmate Meighan Simmons hit a three-pointer with 5:54 left in the game and gave Tennessee a 44-42 advantage - its first lead since being up 5-2 four minutes into the game. The game-clinching play came from reserve junior post Lyssi Brewer. Like Avant, Brewer had missed over half the season’s games, but she came up big against the Commodores. Brewer made a layup and then poked the ball away from VU’s Jence Rhoads right to Simmons who found Brewer for the fastbreak score to put UT up 55-49 with 2:30 left in the game. Brewer finished with a season-best five points, while junior Shekina Stricklen tallied 14 points and nine boards and junior Glory Johnson recorded her ninth double-double (10 points and 11 boards) of the season.

GAME 27: SOUTH CAROLINA KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- No. 4-ranked Tennessee clinched at least a share of its 16th SEC regular season championship with an 82-60 victory over South Carolina on Feb. 17 at Thompson-Boling Arena. The Lady Vols improved to 13-0 in the conference and 25-2 overall in a game that was never in doubt. Junior Lyssi Brewer, in her first start of the season, scored a season-best seven points in the game’s first five minutes and five seconds. She also ripped down a season-best 10 boards in 17 minutes. The real star for the Big Orange, however, was junior Alicia Manning. A-Town, her nickname on the team, scored a careerbest 22 points, including her first three trey attempts of the game. Manning hadn’t made a three this season heading into the game. She made 8-of-11 field goal attempts, grabbed five boards and made three steals in 26 minutes. Junior Shekinna Stricklen recorded her ninth double-double of the season with 12 points and 10 boards, while Meighan Simmons dropped in 17 points and four assists. Tennessee held the Gamecocks without a field goal for eight minutes and 12 seconds of the first half. After Courtney Newton’s three at the 17:46 mark in the first half, USC didn’t score a bucket until Markeshia Grant hit a three with 9:34 remaining until the break. At that point, the Lady Vols led 21-10 after going on a 17-2 run, while South Carolina struggled from the field. Sophomore Kamiko Williams and Manning made back-to-back trifectas to cap the run. In the second half, UT used a 10-0 run to put the game away. Manning’s third three of the game was followed by a nifty behind-the-back pass from Simmons to Stricklen for a layup that extended Tennessee’s lead to 70-47 with 6:29 left in the game. The win marked UT’s 24th straight conference victory and 16th straight win this season.

GAME 28: GEORGIA KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The fourth-ranked Lady Vol basketball team captured its 16th SEC regular season championship in a dominant 77-44 victory over No. 22/rv Georgia on Feb. 21 at Thompson-Boling Arena. Tennessee improved to 14-0 in the conference with two games remaining. The Lady Bulldogs came into the contest with some momentum, having just moved back into the national rankings after a blowout victory over No. 20 Kentucky and sat second in the SEC standings, three games back of the Lady Vols. However, any question of whether UT would clinch the conference title outright was put to rest in the game’s first few minutes as the Lady Vols raced out to a 10-2 lead as freshman point guard Meighan Simmons drilled a pair of three-pointers in the opening minutes. Later in the first half, sophomore wing Taber Spani swished a 12-footer to cap a 12-3 Tennessee run and put the Lady Vols up, 27-12, with 7:45 left in the first half. The Big Orange effectively ended any hope of a Georgia comeback with an 11-0 run to start the second half that gave the Lady Vols a 51-21 lead after Spani nailed a trey with 15:34 remaining in the contest. The Lady Bulldogs missed their first five shots of the second half and didn’t score a point after the break until the 15:16 mark. Georgia finished the game with a 25.8 shooting percentage and was crushed on the boards, 49-33. Surely pumped up by the return of senior sharpshooter Angie Bjorklund, who missed six games with a foot sprain, the Lady Vols shot 50 percent from the field. Although Bjorklund only scored three points in 11 minutes, the Lady Vols collectively were a scoring force as 10 players made baskets. Simmons led the way with 14 points, while junior Shekinna Stricklen and Spani each tallied 11. Junior Glory Johnson had nine points and nine rebounds and became the 36th Lady Vol to score 1,000 career points on a free throw with 13:26 left in the game.

GAME 31: FLORIDA, SEC TOURNAMENT NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The No. 1-seeded Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team, ranked No. 4/4, shot 69.2 percent in the second half and got a career-high 25 points from junior Glory Johnson en route to a 92-75 win over eighth-seeded Florida on March 4 in the SEC Tournament second round. The Lady Vols move on to the SEC Tourney semifinals on Saturday. The Gators connected on 43.9 percent of their shots and refused to go away, cutting UT’s lead to single-digits as late as under three minutes left in the game. Florida attacked the Lady Vols early in the first half, forcing four early turnovers and holding a 16-14 lead at the second media timeout on a three-pointer by Brittany Shine at 11:37. Back-to-back three-pointers by Stricklen and senior Angie Bjorklund gave the Lady Vols a 20-16 lead at the 10-minute mark in the first half, and Bjorklund’s second trey put the Lady Vols up 33-22 at the 6:20 mark in the first half. Florida scored 10 straight points, however, capped by a Deanna Allen three 2:38 before halftime. Stricklen’s “and-1” layup at 1:36 ended the run and kept the Lady Vols ahead, and UT took a 38-36 lead into the break. After the intermission, Johnson went to work, scoring the first three buckets of the final stanza before one minute and 30 seconds had even ticked off. Johnson’s start set the tone as Tennessee made 18-of-26 second half shots. Junior Alicia Manning had two three-point plays in a span of just over a minute, making an “and-1” layup with 10:51 left in the game and another one a 9:48 to put the Lady Vols up 66-51. Johnson added 11 boards for her 11th double-double of the season and Stricklen had 20 points and seven boards. Brewer had a season-best eight points, while Bjorklund went 3-of-3 from three for nine points. She has made seven consecutive treys.

HISTORY
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The fourth-ranked Lady Vol basketball team ran the table in Southeastern Conference league play, finishing 16-0 with an 80-60 “Senior Day”victory over LSU on Feb. 27 at Thompson-Boling Arena. Juniors Glory Johnson (15 points, 16 rebounds) and Shekinna Stricklen (17 points, 11 rebounds) each recorded their 10th double-doubles of the season, as UT completed an undefeated SEC league play slate for the ninth time in school history. The marksmanship of UT’s only two seniors - guards Angie Bjorklund and Sydney Smallbone - helped the Lady Vols shoot a season-best 9-of-16 (.563) from behind the arc. The pair was sensational in its final regular season home game, combining to go a perfect 6-for-6 on treys. Bjorklund scored 17 points and made all four of her three-point attempts. The Lady Vols’ all-time leading three-point shooter (288) also earned her 110th career start which ties for the 10th most all-time in a Lady Vol career. Smallbone made both her trifecta tries en route to a seasonbest six points. Her first three point swish put the Lady Vols up 7-1 three minutes into the game. The Lady Tigers missed their first six shots and started the contest 1-for-11. Bjorklund and Stricklen broke the game open with 12 straight points during a 1-minute, 30-second span midway through the first half. Bjorklund started the run with a three at the 9:20 mark in the first half and completed the spurt with a four-point play to give the Big Orange a 32-10 advantage with 7:56 left before the break. A little over five minutes later, junior Alicia Manning and Bjorklund connected on back-to-back treys to stretch UT’s lead to 44-20 at the 3:25 mark, but the Tigers capped the half on an 11-0 run. Adrienne Webb and LaSondra Barrett combined to hit three consecutive treys and Barrett made a pair of free throws to make the halftime score 44-31. LSU kept the game close throughout the second half and cut Tennessee’s lead to 67-57 on a three by Courtney Jones with 2:58 left in the game. Manning made two steals in the final minute, however, to seal the victory, which got a final exclamation point when Stricklen hit a three at the buzzer.

OXFORD, Miss. -- The Ole Miss Rebels couldn’t stop the fourth-ranked Lady Vol basketball team on Feb. 24 at the Tad Smith Coliseum. It took Mother Nature to do that. The Lady Vols defeated Mississippi 66-39 in a game that was called with 5:24 left after rain began leaking from the “Tad Pad” roof onto the court. High winds and severe storm conditions put a hole in the coliseum’s roof and the rain showed no signs of letting up when the game was halted. Tennessee was dominant in the paint, holding a 43-15 edge on the boards and a 34-12 edge on points in the paint. UT’s three-headed monster of true post players - Glory Johnson, Lyssi Brewer and Vicki Baugh - combined for 34 points on 13-of-17 shooting and 15 boards. Johnson was the most impressive with 18 points, nine boards and four steals, while Baugh scored a season-best 12 points on 4-of-4 shooting to go along with five boards. During a two-minute span in the second half, Baugh scored seven straight Lady Vol points, including a three-point play with 9:55 left in the game. Johnson scored or assisted on the Lady Vols’ first nine points, making a jumper in the lane and dishing three assists as UT took an early 9-0 lead - capped by a trey from junior Shekinna Stricklen at the 16:46 mark in the first half. Later in the initial frame, the Lady Vols used a 20-2 run to take a commanding 31-7 lead with 8:03 left before halftime. Stricklen sparked the run with her second three at the 15:10 mark in the first half. Johnson capped the run with a putback. Ole Miss cut the Lady Vols’lead to 16 points early in the second half after Shae Nelson hit a three and Valencia McFarland made a layup to make the score 45-29 with 17:53 left in the game. Tennessee responded by scoring four straight points on a jumper from sophomore Taber Spani and a layup by Johnson. Later Baugh had her mini-spurt, and the Lady Vol lead swelled to the point that the game was not in doubt when Johnson attempted a dunk for the second time this season with 7:20 left in the game. Johnson missed the slam, but did end up with AutoZone Player of the Game honors as UT won its 18th straight contest.

GAME 32: GEORGIA, SEC TOURNAMENT SEMIS
GAME 33: KENTUCKY, SEC CHAMPIONSHIP
NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The fourth-ranked Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team advanced to its 20th SEC Tournament championship game with an 82-58 victory over Georgia on March 5 at Bridgestone Arena. UT, the tournament’s No. 1 seed, jumped out to a 16-2 lead on the Lady Bulldogs, who missed their first 14 field goal attempts, and received and 18-point, five-assist performance from freshman point guard Meighan Simmons en route to the semifinal victory. The win gave the Lady Vols 20 30-win seasons under head coach Pat Summitt and the opportunity to win their 15th SEC Tournament title. Tennessee’s mix-and-match defenses confused Georgia from the start and the Big Orange raced out to a 9-0 lead on a leaner from junior Shekinna Stricklen at the 16:09 mark in the first half. The Lady Bulldogs didn’t make a field goal until Khaalidah Miller buried a three-pointer with 9:52 left until halftime to make the score 16-5. The Lady Vols followed with a scoring drought of their own, however. After Spani’s three at 13:51, the Lady Vols didn’t score for seven minutes and four seconds. Senior Angie Bjorklund hit a jumper at 6:47 to stop the drought. Under 30 seconds later Bjorklund buried a three to put the Lady Vols up 21-9 6:10 before the break. Simmons’ second three put the Lady Vols up 30-13 with three minutes left in the first half and UT took a 35-22 lead into the break. Junior Glory Johnson carried the Lady Vols after the break, scoring 12 points and grabbing seven boards in the second half and finishing with 14 and 9. She made back-to-back “and-1” layups to make the score 63-42 with 10:30 left in the contest. Bjorklund also reached double figures with 10 points and made 2-of-3 three-pointers. She made her first two trey attempts of the game to stretch her streak to nine straight treys without miss before rimming out her third behind-the-arc attempt of the game. Redshirt junior Kelley Cain added three blocks and seven points.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Defense and rebounding wins championships, but sometimes red-hot three-point shooting can help the cause, too. Despite being outrebounded for just the second time this season, the fourth-ranked Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team completed the SEC regular season and tournament sweep by burying a school and tournament record16 treys in a 90-65 win over No. 16 Kentucky on March 6 at Bridgestone Arena. The Lady Vols will head into the NCAA Tournament with 22 straight wins - tied for the third-most in program history - after bulldozing the SEC by going 16-0 in the regular season before cruising to the tournament title behind the play of Tournament MVP Shekinna Stricklen and all-tournament team members Glory Johnson and Angie Bjorklund. This marks just the third time the Lady Vols have gone undefeated in SEC league play and won the SEC Tournament, joining the 1993-94 team and 1997-98 squad. Tennessee has won 15 SEC Tournament Championships overall, and this was the first back-to-back run since 2005-06. UT has completed the “daring double” of winning both the regular season and conference titles eight times. Bjorklund went 7-of-8 from three and scored a game-high 23 points against the Wildcats, while Stricklen made 5-of-6 from behind the arc, as UT shot 16-of-21 from trey land and a season-best 56.4 percent overall from the field. UT made its first eight three-point attempts with freshman Meighan Simmons burying a trey for the game’s first points 20 seconds in. The Lady Vols didn’t miss a three until the 3:44 mark in the first half. Leading 39-30 at the half, UT shot 70.4 percent in the second half, opening the final frame with a trey from Stricklen and a fastbreak layup by Alyssia Brewer before 1:05 had elapsed. Stricklen’s fifth three at 13:14 gave Tennessee a 60-42 lead, as the Big Orange was 12-of-13 from behind the arc at that point. A Simmons’ three - Tennessee’s 14th - at 8:12 in the second half broke the SEC Tournament record and put UT up 72-53. Bjorklund’s seventh trey set a new Lady Vol mark of 16 with 2:35 remaining in the game. The previous record of 15 was set twice this season against UTC (Nov. 15) and Lamar (Dec. 1).

GAME 34: STETSON, NCAA FIRST ROUND KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The No. 1-seeded Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team began its NCAA-record 30th consecutive NCAA Tournament run by doing to 16th-seeded Stetson what it had done to most of its opponents this season: dominated. Fourth-ranked Tennessee held the Atlantic Sun tournament champions to just 34 points - an all-time low for a Lady Vol opponent in NCAA Tournament games as well as a season low. The Hatters made just 12-of-66 field goals for 18.2 percent shooting. Stetson’s 12 field goals tied a UT opponent low for an NCAA game, as well. Stetson made it a game for the first five minutes. After Stetson guard Tiarra Brown’s three at 15:13 in the first half made the score, 10-9 in favor of the hosts, Tennessee scored 23 straight points over a four-minute, 23-second span. . Bjorklund started the burst with her second three at the 14:57 mark in the first half and Kelley Cain capped the run with a layup in the paint off a no-look pass from Alicia Manning at the 10:35 mark. The Hatters would go 11 minutes and 12 seconds between field goals in the first half, but were actually worse in the second half, scoring just 14 points on 5-of-34 shooting (14.7 percent). Four Lady Vols scored in double figures, led by 15 points from junior Shekinna Stricklen, as UT cruised to the second round. Junior Glory Johnson recorded a double-double (14 points and 10 boards), junior Lyssi Brewer had a season-high 10 points and senior Angie Bjorklund stayed red hot from three, making 4-of-5 from downtown en route to 13 points and capping spurt where she made 20 of 23 three attempts over five games. UT’s 55.7 percent shooting was just off its season-best, while its 63 rebounds were a 2010-11 high.

GAME 36: OHIO STATE, DAYTON REGIONAL SEMIFINAL
DAYTON, Ohio -- The No. 1-seeded Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team’s 2010-11 season came to an end on March 28 at the Dayton Regional Final, as Notre Dame defeated the Big Orange for the first time in 21 chances. The Fighting Irish, who made 18 of 22 free throws, were led by sophomore point guard Skylar Diggins’ 24 points. Both squads traded big runs in the first half. Notre Dame jumped out to an 11-4 lead when Diggins drilled a jumper at 15:40 in the first half. Tennessee followed with a 10-2 spurt to move ahead 14-13 on a Vicki Baugh free throw with 8:06 to go before the intermission. Baugh was a spark for the Big Orange off the bench in the first half with eight points on 3-of-4 shooting in eight minutes. The Irish used an 11-2 run to take a commanding 2719 lead on another Diggins’ jumper at the 2:13 mark. Sophomore Taber Spani swished a three at the buzzer to pull UT within five points, 29-24, at the half despite shooting just 33.3 percent (10-30) from the field in the first half. Diggins made a runner, followed with a trey and capped a 12-4 Notre Dame run with an assist to Natalie Novosel to put the Irish up 41-32 four minutes into the second half and forcedZ Lady Vol head coach Pat Summitt to burn a timeout with 15:49 left in the contest. Tennessee fought back and trailed by only four points when Kelley Cain was whistled for a technical foul at the 5:05 mark. Novosel hit both free throws to push ND’s lead to 53-47. Diggins drilled a three with 4:10 remaining in the game and Devereaux Peters added back-to-back buckets to give Notre Dame a 60-48 at the 3:37 mark. Junior Shekinna Stricklen and Spani each scored 13 points, while junior Glory Johnson collected her 13th double-double of the season. Senior Angie Bjorklund shot a combined 0-for-8 in two games in the Dayton Regional. Still, she capped her career as the Lady Vols’ all-time leader in three-pointers made (305) and attempted (738). Tennessee finished the season 35-3. The loss ended the second-longest win streak in UT history at 25 games.

HISTORY
DAYTON, Ohio -- Shekinna Stricklen scored 20 points to lead the top-seeded Tennessee Lady Volunteers to an 85-75 win over the fourth-seeded Ohio State Buckeyes in the Dayton Regional Semifinal on Saturday afternoon. Junior center Kelley Cain scored the Lady Vols’ first six points and ended with 16 to record her first doublefigure scoring game since Jan. 20, while freshman guard Meighan Simmons poured in 18 points, dished five assists and had two blocks, including a game-changing swat on an OSU breakaway in the winning effort. Ohio State was a scorching 16-24 (66.7%) from the field in the first half, including 4-7 from three-point range, but Tennessee held tough down the stretch in the opening frame as Stricklen nailed a jumper as the first half expired to cut the Buckeye lead to 42-40 at the break. The second half was a dominating inside performance for the Lady Volunteers. Holding just a 1512 rebound margin at the half, UT crashed the boards consistently in the second stanza, outrebounding OSU 31-17, while holding the Buckeyes to just three secondchance points on five offensive rebounds for the game. Samantha Prahalis led Ohio State with 22 points and seven assists, while Jantel Lavender closed out her OSU career with 19 points and a team-high 10 points to go with five assists and four blocked shots. Brittany Johnson had 16 points and was 4-8 from three-point range. Cain tied the game for the eighth and final time at 46all with 17:42 left in the game. Moments later, Prahalis pulled down a long rebound off a Tennessee miss and was off to the races for an easy layup until Simmons sprinted the length of the court to block the Prahalis layup and shift momentum UT’s way. Nine seconds later, Simmons hit a layup of her own to give the Lady Vols a lead they would never relinquish en route to the 10-point final margin. The UT bench outscored OSU’s by a 22-2 margin, while controlling points in the paint, 42-28, as Tennessee advanced to its 24th Elite Eight.
GAME 37: NOTRE DAME, DAYTON REGIONAL FINAL
THE SEC
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The first-seeded Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team got all it could handle from eightseeded Marquette in an NCAA Tournament second round contest on March 21 at Thompson-Boling Arena. The fourth-ranked Lady Vols never trailed but allowed the feisty No. 23/25-ranked Golden Eagles to hang around until the final buzzer thanks to timely three-pointers from guard Tatiyiana McMorris and driving scores by All-BIG EAST First Teamer Angel Robinson. A bucket by Robinson brought Marquette within a point, 63-62, with 6:15 left in the game. However, the Lady Vols answered with a 6-0 run. Senior Angie Bjorklund, who struggled for most of the game and shot 2-of-9, hit a crucial contested jumper right after Robinson’s score. Junior Shekinna Stricklen followed with a pair of free throws before classmate Glory Johnson made a layup at the 4:40 mark that forced Marquette head coach Terri Mitchell to take a timeout. With the Golden Eagles threatening down the stretch, UT held underrated opponents to just three field goals in their last 14 attempts of the night. Tennessee led 39-35 at halftime despite getting zero points from Stricklen, the SEC Player of the Year. The Morrilton, Ark., native stepped in the second half, though, finishing with a box score-stuffing 10 points, 10 boards, career-high five blocks, four assists and two steals. Johnson added 16 points, while freshman Meighan Simmons scored 18 points and junior reserve Alicia Manning had 11 points and seven rebounds. The streaky Simmons made three baskets in the first three-and-a-half minutes of the game and had two clutch three’s in the second half. Manning guarded Robinson one-on-one over the final two minutes of the game. On one crucial possession, the Woodstock, Ga., native forced a contested jumper, grabbed the rebounded, was fouled and made two free throws to put UT up, 73-65, with 1:07 left in the game. She added a clutch three in the final minute to seal the victory, Tennessee’s 24th straight - tying for the second most in UT history, and a 29th Sweet 16 appearance.

LADY VOL FACILITIES Thompson-Boling Arena Thompson-Boling arena underwent a facelift before the 2007-08 season. This was the first major improvement to Thompson-Boling Arena since it was built in 1987. Funding for the project came from donors to the Campaign for Tennessee Basketball and revenue from premium seating areas such as ThompsonBoling Arena luxury suites and loge seats. The luxury suites include 32 suites in the 300 level of Thompson-Boling Arena, with each suite adjoining a large kitchen and seating area. The luxury suites sold out prior to the 2007-2008 basketball season. Loge seating holds 166 large cushioned side court seats, located directly below the luxury suites in the 200 level. The loge seating has access to a private adjoining hospitality area. Loge seats are available for a $4,000 annual donation and the ticket fee to both Lady Vol and Vol basketball games. Both the Lady Vol and Vol basketball staffs occupy new offices in Thompson-Boling arena, renovated in 2010. The office suites in the arena were expanded to contain seven individual offices, a board room, a film room and editing center, a conference room and a kitchen. The main feature when you enter the Lady Vol office is a magnificent floating trophy case which houses the eight Waterford crystal national championship trophies.
Scoreboard and Electronics Thompson-Boling Arena offered fans a complete integrated video, scoring and advertising display system for the first time during the 2007-08 season. The multimillion dollar system features the latest in full-color, light emitting diode (LED) display technology for Big Orange basketball. The system is highlighted by a state-of-the-art center-hung display. The focal point of the display features four ProStar® video displays providing high-resolution, crystal clear, live and recorded video and replay. Each of these displays measures approximately 9 feet 6 inches high by 18 feet wide with 10 millimeter (.39 inch) line spacing and is configured in the 16:9 aspect ratio to accommodate the display of high definition (HD) video. Below the video displays, four additional digital displays will inform and entertain fans with full-color animation, game information and statistics. Separating the digital displays are decorative structures identifying and illuminating the Lady Vol logo. Lighting up the top and bottom of the center hung board are ProAd® digital ring displays providing complete message flexibility. In addition to the main center-hung scoreboard, Daktronics LED technology is utilized in six LED ProTable® digital scorer’s tables. The fully digital scorer’s tables have the ability to display realtime team and player statistics, colorful graphics, exciting animation and video clips. These ProTable® displays utilize 10 millimeter (.39 inch) LED pixel pitch for exceptional image clarity and wide-angle viewing. Fans and athletes are informed by four large fixed digit scoring displays mounted in each corner of the arena. Each of these displays measures approximately three feet high by 41 feet wide and offer basic game information. In addition to the scoreboard and jumbotron, all new ribbon boards were added to the arena prior to the 2011-12 season. The boards, which run the perimeter of the arena, give an added element of distinction to the facility. The Thompson-Boling Assembly Center and Arena is one of the largest on-campus arenas in the

PRATT PAVILION In October 2006, Tennessee Athletics had a ground-breaking ceremony to officially recognize construction on the Pratt Pavilion, the state-of-art basketball practice facility named in UT alumnus Larry F. Pratt’s honor for his $5 million lead gift to the basketball programs. The Pratt Pavilion, which opened in the fall of 2007, houses two full-size gymnasiums, one for each of the men’s and women’s basketball teams, as well as space for an athletic training room, a weight room, a film study room and a place to host recruits. “Lady Vol basketball has a history of tradition and success. Pratt Pavilion will help improve an already outstanding basketball program,” said Joan Cronan, women’s athletics director. Directly connected to the arena, Pratt Pavilion has convenient ground level parking. The 70,000-square-foot structure has four short courts within each of the two full-size courts. The facility is equipped with secured practice facilities, spacious locker rooms and recruiting rooms as well. Balconies at the south side of the building overlook the practice courts. The west façade of the building is glassed from the first floor to the second floor, allowing visibility of gallery and display areas from the street. The building itself is a significant additional element to the picturesque south entrance to the University of Tennessee campus. Pratt Pavilion had a total project cost of $16 million, funded entirely through private gifts. Lead donor Pratt’s commitment in April 2006, coupled with leadership gifts from other campaign donors, including Jim Haslam, Brenda Lawson and Robbie Nutt, enabled Tennessee to move forward with the project. This is not Pratt’s first donation. In the 1990s he honored his father Floyd by creating an endowed scholarship in his name as a member of the Nathan Dougherty Society. He also was recognized at the Tennessee vs. Georgia football game in 2003 for a $1 million donation to the STEP-UP Campaign. Pratt, an Athens, Tenn., native, currently resides in McLean, Va. He graduated from the University of Tennessee in 1972 from the college of business and serves as president and CEO of First Savings Mortgage Corporation, the largest private mortgage banker in Washington D.C.

Constructed in the 1930’s, Alumni Gym was the first real home to Pat Summitt’s inaugural Lady Vol team in 1974. The court in the tiny arena (seating 3,000) was the centerpiece of an encircling tri-balcony seating arrangement.

REVIEW
Stokely Athletics Center was the home to the offices of both the Women’s Athletics Department and the Lady Volunteer basketball team from 1976-87. It was formerly home to the Lady Vol volleyball team, which moved its matches to Thompson-Boling Arena in the fall of 2008. Many offices of the Athletics Department are still housed in Stokely, including Athletic Training, Media Relations and Strength Training, as well as several coaching staffs. The Stokely Arena, which is encircled by a four-lane Tartan indoor track, seats 12,700, while the building houses men’s and women’s athletics department offices. The building was originally called the UT Armory Field House in 1958 and seated just more than 7,000 spectators. Through the generosity of the late William B. Stokely, Jr., further construction was completed and on Dec. 1, 1966, the facility was renamed to honor the Stokely family. In 1986, Stokely took on a new look as a wood playing surface replaced the old tartan court. The Horner “Pro King” hardwood was painted with the traditional outline of the state of Tennessee in the center of the floor and the familiar end line markings. The court was special-made for the University by the same manufacturer who supplied the basketball court to the Forum for the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games. Stokely Athletics Center was the site of some historic games for the Lady Vols. The first women’s contest played in SAC pitted Tennessee versus Kentucky on Nov. 13, 1976. The Lady Vols not only trounced the Lady Kats, 107-53, but UT’s Patricia Roberts tossed in a Field House record 51 points. Along the way, Tennessee hosted the great gold medalist USSR Olympic Team in 1979, the USA All-Star team in 1979 and the first Southeastern Conference Championships in 1980. The last Lady Vol game in Stokely, before moving to Thompson-Boling Arena, was a 77-61 win over Auburn in the finals of the NCAA Mideast Regionals on March 21, 1987. A week later, the Lady Vols returned to Stokely to celebrate UT’s first NCAA basketball title with thousands of fans in attendance. Although no formal attendance figures were kept prior to 1982, Tennessee mostassuredly was among the nation’s elite in fan support.

Additionally, UT has been seeded number two on four occasions, number three, three times and numbers four and five just once. From 1988-96, the Lady Vols had nine consecutive number one seedings.

OKLAHOMA CITY REGIONAL ALL-TOURNAMENT 2008 – Candace Parker, Alexis Hornbuckle
HISTORY
THE FEW. THE PROUD. THE NCAA CHAMPIONS.
RECORDS
The few. The proud. The NCAA Champions. Since Pat Head Summitt arrived in Knoxville in 1974, only 161 women have been selected to wear the Orange and White of the University of Tennessee Lady Volunteers. Of that elite group, every player who has completed her eligibility at UT has played in at least one Final Four during her career. Fifty-eight players have earned the distinction of being an “NCAA Champion” during their playing days at the University of Tennessee. That’s practically 40 percent! And that is truly remarkable. Additionally, forty percent of the 58 players have brought home two or more titles. A total of 12 coaches have helped to bring the eight titles to the Knoxville campus. The common denominator of the eight championships with Coach Summitt is associated head coach Holly Warlick. In her first tenure with the Lady Vols, Mickie DeMoss claimed six rings (1987, 1989, 1991, 1996, 1997 and 1998). Former assistants Al Brown (1996, 1997 and 1998) and Nikki Caldwell (2007, 2008) are the only former aides with numerous titles. Current assistant Dean Lockwood picked up his first national titles as a Lady Vol coach in 2007 and 2008. Seven graduate assistant coaches have had the opportunity to experience one title each.

COACHES LADY VOLS OPPONENTS
On April 3, 2007, the Tennessee Lady Vols captured an elusive seventh national title, beating Rutgers to the ball for second and third shots in a 59-46 win to reclaim their customary place above all other programs. Parker scored 17 points to lead her squad to a 34-3 final record, but the tournament’s most outstanding player got plenty of help from Shannon Bobbitt who scored 13 points — nine of them on three treys in a lightning-quick span in the second half — and Nicky Anosike had 16 rebounds for the Lady Vols, who had 24 offensive boards. After building a 16-point lead and then holding off a late push by Rutgers, the Lady Vols could finally celebrate, dribbling out the final 30 seconds under the Rutgers basket until Tennessee’s players, some in tears, danced at midcourt as orange, blue and gold confetti fell from above. “To win anything you have to be a tight team,” Summitt said. “They believed in each other and they all had one goal, to be here in Cleveland and cut down the nets. I’m real, real proud of this team.” A three-pointer by Rutgers ended a 7-0 UT run that brought the Scarlet Knights to 50-42, but Parker made six straight free throws in 37 seconds to make it 56-44 with 1:08 left. As she went down the floor, Parker looked at the bench where senior Sidney Spencer was crying, knowing all the hard work during the offseason would end the best way possible. The 2007 NCAA tournament ended the same way it has nearly one-third of the time since it started — with Tennessee setting up ladders to cut down the nets.

REVIEW
On April 8, 2008, the “under-rated” Tennessee Lady Vols captured their eighth national title, defeating Stanford 64-48. Incredible defensive pressure by UT forced 25 Cardinal turnovers which the Big Orange converted into 26 points. “They came out with a great mentality to play hard, especially on the defensive end,” Pat Summitt said. “On offense, we got more people involved, but it was our defense that got it done.” Tennessee standout Candace Parker, despite playing with a dislocated shoulder, scored 17 points and grabbed nine rebounds to help the Lady Vols capture their second straight championship, but unlike earlier games in the tournament when she had to carry the Lady Vols, her supporting cast came through. Shannon Bobbitt scored 13 points and Nicky Anosike added 12 points, eight rebounds and six steals for the Lady Vols. Freshman Vicki Baugh had eight points before tearing her ACL in the second half. Bobbitt scored all of her points in the first half as the Lady Vols jumped out to a 37-29 advantage. Trailing by one early, Tennessee used a 13-4 run to take a 17-9 lead midway through the half. Bobbitt hit two three-pointers and made a nifty layup to cap the spurt. The teams traded baskets before two free throws by Bobbitt gave the Lady Vols a 35-25 lead - their biggest of the half. Parker didn’t shoot nearly as many jumpers as usual, instead taking the ball to the basket on an array of moves. She converted one steal in the second half into a pretty layup that gave the Lady Vols a 10-point advantage. She then followed it up with a three-point play on a driving layup. The Cardinal, who had a season low for points, would get no closer than eight the rest of the way. With the game in hand and a minute left, Parker went to the Tennessee bench for the final time, holding up four fingers on each hand to signify the eight titles the Lady Vols have won. “One is disputable, but two, you can’t stumble onto two national championships, so we’re pretty good,” Parker said.

1998 National Champions
1997 National Champions
The 1998 Tennessee Lady Vols will be remembered as history-makers. A perfect 39-0 record and the most wins ever in women’s collegiate basketball… an NCAA unprecedented three consecutive titles… and the systematic blowout night-afternight of the opposition. When the team finally reached the NCAA title game against a dear old rival in Louisiana Tech, the contest started out tight with UT taking an 8-6 lead. Then “the greatest team ever to play the game,” according to Louisiana Tech head coach Leon Barmore, exploded out to a 34-11 run over the next seven minutes. The points were coming in bunches to the tune of 63% field goal accuracy as these Lady Vols were on a mission. By the halftime break, Tennessee led 55-32 and had registered an NCAA record for the most points scored in a half at the Final Four. Leading the way for UT in game 39 were the Three Meeks – MVP Chamique Holdsclaw, Tamika Catchings and Semeka Randall— who collectively tallied 62 points and 25 rebounds in the Lady Vols’ 93-75 victory. Holdsclaw, who scored 25 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, won the top player honors in the final game. She was joined on the All-Tournament Team by Catchings, who recorded 27 points in her first title game, and an honorary “Meek”, Kellie Jolly, who added a career-high 20 points. With the win, the Lady Vols earned their sixth national title, played in their eighth championship game and became the first team to win three consecutive NCAA titles.
No team had ever won the NCAA championship coming in with more than six losses. But proving that it’s wise to save your best for last, Tennessee took its fifth NCAA championship and second straight title with a 68-59 win over Old Dominion despite entering the tournament with a 23-10 record. “Of all our runs to a championship, this one is really the most unexpected,” said coach Pat Summitt. “It came from a team with tremendous heart and desire.” Tennessee took control quickly at the start of the title game, jumping out to a 20-8 lead. By halftime, the Lady Vols still had a comfortable lead, 34-22. In the second half, Old Dominion clawed its way back, taking its first lead at 4443 with 9:06 left in the game. The Lady Monarchs extended the lead to two, 49-47, before Chamique Holdsclaw led the Lady Vols on a 12-2 run to put the game away for Tennessee. Holdsclaw was a unanimous choice as the most outstanding player, as she poured in 24 points and seven rebounds. Six of her points came during the decisive run at the end of the game. Joining Holdsclaw on the All-Championship team was Kellie Jolly, who only scored five points, but set a championship record with 11 assists in the final game and a Final Four record with 20. With the win, the Lady Vols earned their fifth national title, played in their seventh championship game and became only the second team to win consecutive championships. (Southern Cal., 1983 and 1984).

Vindication was finally Tennessee’s in the 1991 NCAA women’s final, as the Lady Vols downed a talented Virginia Cavalier club, 70-67, in the first NCAA Final Four overtime title game. Virginia had eliminated Tennessee before it could reach the 1990 Women’s Final Four – which just happened to be held in Knoxville. But the Lady Vols took New Orleans and their third NCAA title in five years. The first half was tight, with Tennessee holding a paper-thin 27-26 advantage at the intermission. But the Lady Vols opened up a small lead in the second half. Small lead; small comfort. Virginia’s Dawn Staley, who was named the most outstanding player, led the Virginia comeback to tie the game at 60 at the end of regulation. But the overtime belonged to Tennessee and Dena Head, who scored a championship record 28 points in the final. Wade Trophy winner Daedra Charles added 19 points and 12 boards for Tennessee and joined Head on the All-Championship Team. Tennessee’s effort was also aided by the play of Lisa Harrison, who poured in eight points and 13 boards. With the victory, the Lady Volunteers kept their streak of odd-year championships going. Tennessee also won national titles in 1987 and 1989.
REVIEW
It seemed only fitting that the Lady Vols would win another NCAA crown in the “Queen City” of Charlotte, N.C. And it was equally fitting that the Lady Vols’ fourth NCAA title would come over a fierce SEC rival in the Georgia Lady Bulldogs, 83-65. After the emotionally draining overtime win versus Connecticut, the skeptics wondered if UT would have enough emotional energy left for the title game. They did...and then some. Although Georgia held a modest three point lead early in the game and led by two with 14:11 to go in the first half, it would be their only lead in the title contest. UT senior Latina Davis put the handcuffs on Player of the Year Saudia Roundtree in the first half as the Lady Vols grabbed an early nine point lead, 28-19 with 7:36 to go in the first half. Georgia recovered to trail by just five at the half, 42-37. In the first three minutes of the second half, UT took off and never looked back. Abby Conklin’s trey (her first of four) with 14:55 left gave UT a 16-point lead, 57-41. Davis upped the ante to a 21 point lead with 2:25 showing, 81-60. The celebrating started early as the Final Four MVP, Michelle Marciniak, and All-Tournament Team members Chamique Holdsclaw and Tiffani Johnson left the game to wildly cheering fans. Davis, who held Roundtree to 17 points below her average, was UT’s quiet heroine. On the night, Holdsclaw and Johnson tallied 16 points to lead UT, while Conklin added 14 points, Pashen Thompson a dozen, and Marciniak 10 in the final game of her career.

It was a battle of Southeastern Conference powerhouses – Tennessee versus Auburn for all the marbles. The Lady Vols looked to regain the national title they earned in 1987. Although they were up against a Lady Tiger team that had made its second straight national championship final, Tennessee took home its second NCAA championship in three years with a 76-60 win. Playing in her triumphant final game, All-America forward Bridgette Gordon treated the 9,758 spectators to a spectacular 27-point performance, tying a championshipgame record. She also collected 11 boards on the way to most outstanding player honors. Gordon’s seven first-half baskets helped the Lady Vols to a 35-27 halftime lead. Auburn was able to stay close, cutting the score to 50-47. But after a timeout, the Lady Vols went on a 13-4 run to put the game out of reach. The keys to the victory were the battle of the boards, where Tennessee outrebounded Auburn 45-30, and the free throw line, where Tennessee shot 20-26, while Auburn was 8-12. Sheila Frost joined Gordon on the All-Championship team. Playing in her final game at Tennessee, Frost had six points and 12 boards. Also coming up big for the Lady Vols in the final was Dena Head, with 19 points.

Tennessee may have failed in its first bid at the national championship, but the second time was the charm for the Lady Vols. Tennessee thumped Louisiana Tech, which was vying for its second title, 67-44. “Well, the monkey’s off my back,” head coach Pat Summitt said. “I do not think I could go without recognizing that it was a tremendous team effort…has been for the last three weeks. This team has played as hard and as smart as I could ask any team to play.” The Lady Vols built a 33-24 halftime edge and never looked back. Seven minutes into the second half, Tennessee had increased its lead to 14, 47-33, and the rest was history as Tennessee took its first NCAA title. Tennessee attempted 19 more field goals and grabbed 11 more rebounds than the Lady Techsters. A championship-game record crowd of 9,823 watched Tonya Edwards net 13 points and grab seven rebounds en route to most outstanding player honors. Two additional Lady Vols contributed 13 points – Bridgette Gordon and Sheila Frost. Gordon joined Edwards on the All-Championship team, as she also led the Tennessee carom parade, pulling down a game-high 12 rebounds.

SEC HISTORY: The Southeastern Conference was formed Dec. 8-9, 1932, and included 13 schools at the time: Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, LSU, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Sewanee, Tennessee, Tulane, and Vanderbilt. The league’s first president was Frank L. McVey of Kentucky. Due to the continually increasing amount of work administering
Louisiana State Mississippi Mississippi State South Carolina Tennessee Vanderbilt the league, the office of Commissioner was established by its member institutions in 1940. Former Mississippi governor Martin Conner was named as the first commissioner, a post he held until 1948. Following Conner were Bernie Moore (1948-66), A.M. Coleman (196672), Dr. Boyd McWhorter (1972-86), Dr. Harvey Schiller (1986-90), and Roy Kramer (19902002). Mike Slive is currently Commissioner of the Southeastern Conference and its 12 member institutions. The first SEC champions were crowned in 1933 in baseball, basketball, football and outdoor track. Cross country, golf, swimming, tennis and indoor track were added later. The SEC began recognizing women’s championships during the 1979-80 academic year. The conference office officially took over regulation of women’s athletics on Sept. 1, 1984. The SEC currently regulates nine men’s sports and eleven women’s sports. Baseball, basketball, football, golf, swimming and diving, tennis and track (indoor, outdoor, and cross country) are currently sanctioned for men. The women’s sports are basketball, golf, gymnastics, soccer, softball, swimming and diving, tennis, track (indoor, outdoor, and cross country) and volleyball.

With eight national championships, ten runner-up finishes, a nation-leading 34 Final Four appearances and 85 first-team All-America honors, the Southeastern Conference stands firmly as the nation’s premier intercollegiate women’s basketball conference. The SEC has posted impressive non-conference records in the last decade. The SEC compiled a 131-49 (.728) non-conference record during the 2010-11 season. Since the 1990 season, the SEC has compiled a 2914-894 (.765) record against other conferences. The league has recorded 150+ wins during eight seasons and has never recorded a non-conference winning percentage below .723. SEC teams have earned appearances in 25 of 30 NCAA Final Fours, an accomplishment unmatched by any other league. Overall, SEC squads have filled 34 of the 116 Final Four berths, including having two Final Four teams in 1988 (Auburn, Tennessee), 1989 (Auburn, Tennessee), 1995 (Georgia, Tennessee), 1996 (Georgia, Tennessee), 1998 (Arkansas, Tennessee), 2004 (LSU, Tennessee), 2005 (LSU, Tennessee), 2007 (LSU, Tennessee) and 2008 (LSU, Tennessee). SEC teams have made 18 appearances in a nation-high 16 NCAA Championship games, winning eight NCAA Championships (Tennessee: 1987, 1989, 1991, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2007 and 2008). The league also had the distinction of providing both national finalists twice in its history in 1996 (Tennessee 83, Georgia 65) and in 1989 (Tennessee 76, Auburn 60).
TENNESSEE LADY VOL BASKETBALL /// 2011-12 MEDIA GUIDE
SEC teams have won 335 NCAA Tournament games against 172 losses (.661) for an average of 11.2 NCAA wins per year. In addition, all 12 current members have appeared in the NCAA Tournament. The SEC has paced the pack in NCAA tournament bids 21 times in its 30-year history. The SEC was the first league to ever have eight teams invited to the NCAA Tournament, doing so in 1999 and 2002. The SEC was also the first league to ever have seven teams invited to the NCAA Tournament and earned this honor a nation-leading seven times (1986, 1991, 1995, 1996, 1997, 2003, 2004). The SEC is one of a handful of leagues to have won three national tournament titles with eight NCAA, two WNIT and three NWIT. Along with the eight NCAA championships won by Tennessee, Arkansas (1999) and Auburn (2003) captured the current Women’s NIT titles. But the first-ever SEC national title belongs to Georgia, winners of the 1981 NWIT which predates the current NCAA tournament. LSU (1985) and Kentucky (1990) each won NWIT titles. Both Arkansas (1987) and South Carolina (1979) won the WNIT as members of their previous conferences.

On Feb. 7, 1980, the first SEC women’s basketball tournament began play. It ended four days later with Tennessee defeating Ole Miss for the title. Fast forward 30 years later and the SEC Tournament is still enjoying success and increased popularity. Beginning with its inception and through 1986, the tournament was held at campus sites. The tournament was then sent to Albany, Ga., which served as the site for six years from 1987-92. The tournament then moved to Chattanooga, Tenn., where it was held from 1993-2000, with the exception of 1998 when the tournament moved to Columbus, Ga. Since 2001 the tournament has enjoyed many new sites, including Memphis (2001), Nashville (2002, 2004, 2008, 2011), North Little Rock, Ark. (2003, 2006, 2009), Greenville, S.C. (2005) and Duluth, Ga. (2007, 2010). Once again this year the SEC Women’s Basketball Tournament returns to Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tenn. The winner of the 11-game tournament will receive the league’s automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. The tournament seeds and conference champion will be determined by the 16-game regular-season SEC schedule. The top four seeds earn a first-round bye. The 2012 SEC Women’s Basketball Tournament will once again enjoy live television coverage. FSN continues its dedication to SEC events by televising all first round and second round games. This year, ESPNU will carry both semifinal games and ESPN2 will air the championship game.

In the Southeastern Conference, typically rated as the nation’s toughest league, the Tennessee Lady Vols have enjoyed incredible success through the years. Since 1980, UT has laid claim to a phenomenal 16 regular season championships. What’s even more amazing is the fact that the Lady Vols won nine of the championships with a perfect record in league play in 1993, 1994, 1995, 1998, 2001, 2003, 2004 2007 and 2011. Entering the 2004-05 season, Tennessee had won an unprecedented seven regular season SEC titles in a row dating back to 1998. During that time, Coach Pat Summitt’s teams posted a ridiculous 95-3 overall record in SEC play – a 97 percent winning mark. In 2004-05, 2005-06 and 2007-08 the Lady Vols went 13-1, 11-3 and 13-1, respectively, to finish second in the regular season, but avenged regular season champions LSU in the 2005, 2006 and 2008 SEC Tournaments. Since 1980, UT has laid claim to a phenomenal 15 SEC Tournament Championships that comes with the automatic bid to the NCAA Championships. What’s truly amazing is the fact that the Lady Vols won eight of the championships in the same season following winning the SEC regular season titles, pulling the daring double in 1980, 1985, 1994, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2010 and 2011. The Lady Vols enter the 2011-12 season as defending SEC Tournament champions. UT claimed the 2005, 2006, 2008, 2010 and 2011 tournament titles. Before the 2004-05 season, Tennessee went four campaigns without winning the SEC Tournament – the second-longest duration in Lady Vol history.

C The Lady Vol basketball family suffered a great loss in the summer of 1994 when former player Dr. Fonda Bondurant died in a boating accident near Smithville, Tenn. Bondurant played for UT from 1975 to 1977 before giving up basketball to concentrate solely on her academics. Her passing marked the first death of any Lady Vol athlete since the founding of the UT Women’s Intercollegiate Athletics Department in 1976. A native of South Fulton, Tenn., Bondurant was an orthopaedic surgeon with Tennessee Orthopaedics of Lebanon. She graduated from the University of Tennessee in 1979, UT Medical School at Memphis in 1984, and completed her residency in Houston, Texas, in 1991. “The one thing about Fonda that really sticks out in my mind was her hard work on the basketball court and her dedication in the classroom,” Head Coach Pat Summitt said. “Her dream was to be a doctor, and she turned out to be a very skilled physician.” Bondurant played guard for Tennessee as a freshman and a sophomore and averaged two points and one rebound per game in 30 contests. She was a member of the first Lady Vol team to represent Tennessee at the National Championships. That squad finished in third place in Minneapolis in 1977.

G The Tennessee Lady Vol basketball family learned on Monday, Dec. 27, 2010, that Melissa Ann McCray-Dukes had lost her long and hard-fought battle with breast cancer. McCray-Dukes was 43-years old. Nicknamed “Emma” by her Tennessee teammates, she played on four consecutive NCAA Final Four teams (1986-87-8889) and started as a guard on coach Pat Summitt’s first two national championship teams in 1987 and 1989. “Melissa was one of the most incredible people you could ever meet,” Summitt said. “She fought cancer with the same determination and tenacity she showed on the basketball court. She went into every single day of her life as a winner. Melissa had incredible optimism but she also knew she was in God’s hands at the end of her fight.” She was the wife of the Reverend Johnny Dukes and mother to daughter Stephanie McCray, 20, and son Chandler Dukes, 16. Melissa was born on Jan. 27, 1967 in Savannah, Ga. As a tribute to her, the 2010-11 Lady Vol team wore her Tennessee number, a black and white number 35, on their game shorts beginning with the contest versus Rutgers.

RETIRED NUMBERS
Student-athletes may enjoy many accolades during their playing days. Players can be named to all-conference and All-America teams. They may even go on to earn a spot on the USA National Team. The ultimate tribute, however, is reserved for only a chosen few—the retiring of their jerseys. Lady Vol basketball players have worn thirty-four different numbers over the years; five will never be worn again. Numbers 22, 23, 24, 30 and 32 have been retired to preserve the dedication and commitment that the last player to wear each of those numbers has displayed for Tennessee basketball.
No. 22 Holly Warlick Guard • 1976-80 • Hometown: Knoxville, Tennessee The first Tennessee athlete, either male or female, to have her jersey retired was Holly Warlick. Number 22 was retired on Feb. 18, 1980, in a ceremony after Tennessee’s 89-72 win over Clemson in Stokely Athletics Center. A play-making wizard for the Lady Vols from 1976-80, Holly earned All-America honors three times. At the time of the ceremony, she held UT records for most assists in a game (14), most steals in a game (9), and most assists in a season (225). Holly could not hang her uniform on the wall right away. She played six more games after the retirement party. The final time she donned No. 22 was in the AIAW National Championship game when the Lady Vols fell to Old Dominion, 68-53. During her years at Tennessee, the Lady Vols produced a 118-23 overall record, three trips to the Final Four and a first-ever SEC Tournament title. She later went on to become a member of the 1980 U.S. Olympic Team. Now a member of the Lady Vol coaching staff, Warlick’s No. 22 hangs in the hallway outside the women’s basketball office in Thompson-Boling Arena.
No. 30 Bridgette Gordon Forward • 1985-89 • Hometown: DeLand, Florida Ten years later, the second Lady Vol basketball jersey was retired. Bridgette Gordon returned to Thompson-Boling Arena after a stellar career at Tennessee to see her No. 30 retired during halftime of Tennessee’s 76-70 win over Texas on Jan. 17, 1990. Bridgette led the Lady Vols to a 115-21 record during her four years at UT. She was the driving force behind an NCAA-record four consecutive trips to the Final Four as well as two NCAA and two SEC Championships. Bridgette was the first freshman ever to lead UT in scoring, and she earned coSEC Rookie of the Year and All-SEC honors. The next year she led Tennessee to its first NCAA title, earned All-SEC honors again and was named to the All-Final Four team. She copped All-SEC honors and was named MVP of the SEC Tournament as a junior. She also earned her first of two Kodak All-America honors that year. After earning a gold medal as a member of the 1988 U.S. Olympic basketball team, Bridgette returned to Tennessee for her senior season. She led the Lady Vols to the 1989 NCAA title and was named MVP of the Final Four. She finished her career as the all-time leading scorer in NCAA Tournament history. Bridgette graduated in 1989 with a B.S. in political science. She was basketball’s nominee for the 1989 Honda-Broderick Award, which is symbolic for women’s academic and athletic achievement.

No. 32 Daedra Charles Center • 1988-91 • Hometown: Detroit, Michigan
OUTLOOK COACHES
When Tennessee hosted the SEC-Big 10 Challenge in Dec. 28, 1991, Daedra Charles became the next Lady Vol to have her jersey retired. Charles returned to Knoxville from Como, Italy, where she was playing professional basketball with former Lady Vol teammate Bridgette Gordon. Charles came to surprise Lady Vol head coach Pat Summitt by announcing the endowment of the Pat Head Summitt Scholarship, presented by Charles, Gordon and another former Lady Vol, Lisa McGill Reagan. Summitt, who was unaware of the endowment, had planned the retirement ceremony as a surprise for Charles. A two-time Kodak All-American at Tennessee, Daedra was the 1991 SEC Woman Athlete of the Year. She became the first player from the SEC to win the Wade Trophy, the highest honor in women’s basketball. All this came after leading Tennessee to its third NCAA title in five years. She finished her career seventh on the UT scoring list (1495), sixth in rebounding (858) and second in shots blocked (95), despite missing her freshman season as a Prop 48 student. Still, Daedra graduated in four years, earning a bachelor’s degree in child and family studies.

FACILITIES
During halftime of the Lady Vols’ 92-88 home triumph over archrival Connecticut on Feb. 1, 2001, the collegiate career of arguably the greatest women’s player to ever play the game was officially closed when Chamique Holdsclaw became just the fourth Lady Vol to have her jersey retired. The Naismith Player of the Century and one of only six four-time Kodak AllAmericans in the history of women’s basketball, Holdsclaw led the Orange and White to a 131-17 overall record and an unprecedented three consecutive national championships from 1996-98, while establishing herself as the program’s all-time leader in scoring (3,025 points) and rebounding (1,295). The NCAA Tournament’s most outstanding player in 1997 and 1998, Holdsclaw still holds the record for points (479 points, 21.8 ppg) and rebounds (198 rebounds, 9.0 rpg) accumulated in tournament games. The first two-time winner of the Associated Press Player of the Year Award, Holdsclaw garnered 34 individual awards during her career, including 21 player of the year honors from a variety of organizations. In 2006, Holdsclaw was named to the NCAA 25th Anniversary Team. She was previously named to the Kodak 25th Anniversary Team in 1999.

No. 24 Tamika Catchings
RECORDS
Forward • 1997-2001 • Hometown: Duncanville, Texas
UNIVERSITY
The fifth Lady Vol jersey to be retired belonged to Tamika Catchings in a halftime ceremony on Dec. 7, 2003, against Louisiana Tech. From the moment she stepped on the court in the number 24 orange and white jersey, we knew from her contagious smile that she was a special person, and from her deadly baseline-tobaseline hustling for all 40 minutes, a truly phenomenal player. This special six-foot, one-inch forward had the heart of a champion and could play anywhere on the court. Her UT career was shortened during her senior year when she went crashing to the floor with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in game 17 versus Mississippi State. Her list of awards was staggering, as she captured a slew of them while being tabbed as UT’s second four-time Kodak All-American. What she accomplished in the span of her collegiate career is the stuff of legend. She played in 127 games as a Lady Vol. Her assault on the record books is legendary for both scoring, with 2,113 points, and rebounding, 1,004 boards. Both marks rank her third all-time. She also finished her career second all-time in steals with 311 and blocked shots with 136. And remember, she missed half of her senior season. Her teammates will tell you how special it was to earn a blue adidas headband after Catchings went out with the injury. Earning one meant they hustled like “Catch” would have. The Eleanor Roosevelt League for the Hard of Hearing honored her in 1998 – as a special role model for youngsters and adults with hearing impairments. Her UT academic counselors will relate stories about Catchings graduating ahead of her class in December 2000. People in the Knoxville community will tell you of the countless hours she put in with youths from all walks of life – from playgrounds to hospitals.
An WNBA All-Star for the Indiana Fever, Catchings added to her collection of accolades in the Summer of 2004 with a gold medal as a member of the USA Women’s Basketball Team at the Athens Olympic Games and in 2008 at the Beijing Olympic Games. This past season she was named the 2011 WNBA MVP.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL HALL OF FAME
OUTLOOK COACHES LADY VOLS REVIEW FACILITIES
The Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame, Knoxville, Tenn. During the summer of 2010, former Tennessee Women’s Athletic Director Gloria Ray was inducted into the Hall of Fame as a member of the 12th annual class. Ray was responsible for the design, development, construction and management of the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame and she was the first Women’s Athletic Director at UT. She helped establish the Lady Vols as a nationally recognized program and brand. She served as president of the Southeastern Conference Women’s Athletic Directors and helped establish the first women’s SEC basketball tournament. To date, 121 individuals have been inducted into the Hall including a total of nine from the University of Tennessee.
OPPONENTS
The Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame is certainly the stuff of which dreams are made. It wasn’t so very long ago that even the most ardent women’s basketball aficionados could not have envisioned, even in their wildest dreams, a place such as the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame; a place that would honor the past, celebrate the present, and promote the future of women’s basketball. But in June 1999, the dream became a reality as the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame opened its doors in Knoxville, Tenn. In addition to the grand opening of a showplace facility which houses numerous artifacts and interactive exhibits, the Hall of Fame welcomed its first class of inductees. Enshrinement in the Hall of Fame was truly a dream come true for the 25 individuals who comprised the inaugural class as they were honored for a lifetime of achievements as coaches, players, and contributors. The roll call of the Class of 1999 literally read like a women’s basketball “Who’s Who.” The University of Tennessee’s own Pat Head Summitt headlined a list of the premier names in the sport, which included the likes of Olympians Cheryl Miller, Anne Donovan, Ann Meyers Drysdale, Nancy Lieberman-Cline, and Uljana Semjonova and coaching greats Jody Conradt, John Head, Harley Redin, Billie Moore, and Jim Smiddy. Two former Tennessee Lady Vol Olympians and All-Americans – Patricia “Trish” Roberts and Cindy Noble Hauserman – followed Summitt into the Hall of Fame as members of the Class of 2000. Roberts and Noble Hauserman joined 22 other basketball luminaries in the Class of 2000 ceremonies. The Lady Vols were also represented when the third group of inductees was selected for the Class of 2001. Knoxville’s own Holly Warlick, a former Lady Vol Olympian and All-American, was tabbed for inclusion in the Hall as 10 more individuals took their rightful place among the Hall’s elite. When the Class of 2002 was inducted in an April gala event, it included former Lady Vol Olympian and AllAmerican Cindy Brogdon along with five other worthy individuals joining the ranks of the Hall. In June 2007, UT Olympians and All-Americans Bridgette Gordon and Daedra Charles-Furlow were among six individuals enshrined in the ninth class of the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame. They were joined by the first media member to be inducted – Mel Greenberg. In 2008, Lady Vol Olympian and two-time All-American Jill Rankin Schneider earned a spot in the 10th class of inductees.

SUMMITT INDUCTED LADY VOL HEAD COACH PAT SUMMITT was inducted into the Naismith Hall of Fame October 13, 2000, in recognition of her accomplishments and contributions to the game of basketball.
QUOTING SUMMITT Upon her induction into the Naismith Hall of Fame October 13, 2000
What are your thoughts and feelings about the induction? “What an exciting weekend! I was anxious because of the induction into the Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass., and we started practice for the 2000-01 campaign the very next afternoon. “I am also glad that my entire Tennessee coaching staff, Mickie DeMoss, Holly Warlick and Al Brown, were able to join me for the ceremony. They were among the over 30 people traveling to Springfield. My sister and two of my three brothers were in attendance, along with my mother and father-in-law, R.B. and son Tyler.”
How does this honor of being inducted into the Hall of Fame rate? “What a wonderful achievement and honor. Throughout my time at UT, I have worked with a team comprised of administrators, the basketball staff, support staff and dedicated studentathletes. I am constantly reminded how fortunate I have been to be surrounded by a group that has embraced the sport of women’s basketball long before it became fashionable. The support that has always been provided to both myself and our team has been amazing.”
What do you feel is your greatest personal achievement? “Survival, right? Actually, there is not one thing that stands out in my mind the most. However, the fact that we boast a 100% graduation rate for all players who competed for four years at Tennessee is a statistic I am very proud of. The relationships I have developed over 26 years of coaching are what I hold closely. They are what you have to show for the long hours at practice and time spent on the recruiting trail.”
What are your thoughts about the Hall of Fame induction? “Receiving this honor has made me step back and see where I am. It has helped me to see all that we have accomplished at the University of Tennessee over the past several decades and it shows me that the future is still bright for the Lady Vols. I love this game and want to continue my involvement with it. Being selected to the Hall has given me a lot of motivation for the season and the immediate future.”
Why aren’t there more women’s basketball coaches in the Hall? “There are many outstanding women’s coaches who haven’t reached the level of 25 years yet. Some of the ones who come to mind right away include Tara VanDerveer at Stanford, Geno Auriemma at Connecticut and Leon Barmore at Louisiana Tech. Over the next few years I think there will be others to follow the path to Springfield.”

Sparks’ Candace Parker (2008) as former Tennessee Lady Vols to have reaped league MVP honors after finishing as the award’s runner-up in 2003, 2009 and 2010. She was also among the top three for the honor on five occasions and among the top five in balloting after eight different seasons. Catchings led the Fever to the top seed in the Eastern Conference, averaging 15.5 points, 7.1 rebounds and 3.5 assists, and became just the sixth player in WNBA history to reach the 5,000-point mark and the first with 5,000 points, 2,000 rebounds and 1,000 assists in a career. She was also the top vote-getter for the WNBA All-Star game in 2011 for the third time in her pro career and is the WNBA’s all-time steals leader with 775 thefts. In 29 regular-season games for the eventual WNBA champion Minnesota Lynx, Hornbuckle averaged 1.1 points, 1.1 rebounds and 0.6 assists per contest in 7.2 minutes per game. She registered a seasonhigh-tying seven points in just eight minutes during a conference semifinal match-up against the Silver Stars. Parker was cruising along for the Sparks into her seventh game in 2011 before tearing the meniscus in her right knee against the Liberty on June 26. She eventually returned to action against the Dream on Aug. 26, scoring 15 points and nabbing 10 boards in 26 minutes. She finished out her fourth season in the league averaging 18.5 points, 8.6 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 17 games played. Parker posted a seasonhigh 32 tallies on 13-of-25 shooting from the field against the Mercury on Sept. 3. In helping the Storm to the conference semifinals, Robinson, in her fifth full season in Seattle and eighth in the WNBA, registered a careerhigh 3.8 points and 3.9 rebounds per contest over an average of 17.1 minutes in 34 games. She recorded a double-double of 14 tallies and 10 boards against the Sky back on July 19. After three years with the Lynx, Anosike made the move to Washington for the 2011 campaign. In 34 contests for the Mystics, she posted averages of 7.0 points and 7.2 rebounds, while logging 27.2 minutes per night. Her overall carom average was good enough to rate eighth overall in the WNBA, while Anosike also recorded 2.4 offensive rebounds per contest to rank ninth in the league. She posted four doubles-doubles for Washington with a stand-out effort of 29 points and 13 boards in a 98-90 win over Atlanta on June 9. Ely put up 3.1 points and 2.2 rebounds over 33 games for the Fever, joining Bobbitt (3.9 points, 1.7 assists per contest over 31 games) and Catchings in helping the Fever to the Eastern Conference title.

Alexis Hornbuckle captured her second WNBA Championship in 2011 with the Minnesota Lynx. Her first crown came with the Shock in 2008.
OUTLOOK
The 2011 WNBA season began with 11 former Lady Vols sporting the uniforms of a WNBA franchise. The 11 former Tennessee basketball stars were employed by nine different teams, including Nicky Anosike (Washington Mystics), Angie Bjorklund (Chicago Sky), Shannon Bobbitt (Indiana Fever), Tamika Catchings (Indiana Fever), Shyra Ely (Indiana Fever), Alexis Hornbuckle (Minnesota Lynx), Kara Lawson (Connecticut Sun), Candace Parker (Los Angeles Sparks), Ashley Robinson (Seattle Storm), Michelle Snow (Chicago Sky) and Sidney Spencer (New York Liberty and Phoenix Mercury). Since the WNBA burst onto the scene in 1997, the University of Tennessee has produced 31 WNBA players and 12 first-round draft picks. The 2003 selections of Kara Lawson and Gwen Jackson as the No. 5 and No. 6 picks, respectively, moved UT ahead of Uconn at that time for the most ever first-round draft picks. Overall, Tennessee and the University of Connecticut tied for the most active players in the WNBA in 2011 with 11 each. Five of the eight teams that made the postseason displayed at least one former Lady Vol on roster with Indiana boasting three. Minnesota, which earned the West’s top seed by posting a league-best 27-7 overall record, featured Hornbuckle. The Lynx stormed through the playoffs with a 7-1 overall record on the way to the 2011 WNBA title. Indiana, led by Catchings, Ely and Bobbitt, won the Eastern Conference crown before being eliminated by the No. 3-seed Atlanta Dream in the conference finals, 2-1. Phoenix, boasting former Lady Vol Spencer, entered the playoffs as the third-seed in the Western Conference and was knocked out by the Lynx in the conference finals. Lawson’s Connecticut Sun and Robinson’s Seattle Storm reached the conference semifinal round of the playoffs but were eliminated by the Dream and Mercury, respectively. The three teams that did not have a former Lady Vol on the roster were eventual WNBA finalist Atlanta and conference semifinalists and fourthseeds New York and San Antonio. For the first time in her illustrious 10-year pro career, Catchings was chosen as the WNBA’s Most Valuable Player in 2011 after helping Indiana to a 21-13 regular season mark. The 6-1 forward picked up 292 total points, including 21 first place votes, in picking up the award for

LADY VOLS IN WNBA ACTION In marking a full decade in the league, Snow played in 34 matchups for her new team the Sky in 2011. She put up 5.9 tallies and 6.3 rebounds per night while shooting .456 from the field. The 6-5 post finished the year rated sixth in the WNBA in blocks per game (1.3) and 15th in rebounds per contest. After joining the Liberty from Phoenix during the 2011 campaign, Spencer played in 16 games for New York, helping them to the Eastern Conference semifinal round. In her finest game of the season, the 6-3 guard went 3-for-3 from three-point range in totaling nine points to go along with four boards in an 81-75 victory over San Antonio (July 1). Beginning in the summer of 2002, Pat Summitt became the first women’s coach in history to simultaneously hold a position in both the professional and collegiate ranks, as a consultant with the Washington Mystics. Summitt’s work contributed to the Mystics’ turnaround from their 10-22 record in 2001 to a 17-15 mark and an appearance in the Eastern Conference Finals in 2002. Washington once again earned a spot in the playoffs in 2003, losing in the Eastern Conference Semifinals to the Connecticut Sun. Summitt stepped aside from her consulting efforts in 2005. In 2008, Candace Parker became the first player to win WNBA Rookie of the Year and WNBA Most Valuable Player honors in the same season.
WNBA DRAFT DRAFT DARLINGS The Lady Vol basketball program has produced 45 professional players over the years, including 30 alumnae who went on to play in the WNBA. Of those 30 who continued their careers at the professional level in the WNBA, 12 were selected in the Draft’s first round. Tennessee has placed two players inside the first round of the draft four times. Dena Head and Daedra Charles were selected first and eighth respectively in the 1997 draft. Lady Vols doubled up again in 1999, with Chamique Holdsclaw going first to the Mysitcs and Tonya Edwads going seventh to the Lynx. The pair of Kara Lawson and Gwen Jackson were taken with back-to-back picks in 2003 with Lawson going fifth to the Shock anad Jackson going sixth to the Fever. Most recently, the duo of Candace Parker and Alexis Hornbuckle were taken in 2008. The Sparks chose Parker with the first overall pick. Hornbuckle followed closely behind as the Shock picked her up with the fourth selection.

LADY VOL
RECORDS
GLORY JOHNSON could become just the fourth Lady Vol in school history to score over 1,000 career points and collect 1,000 career rebounds.
GREAT LADY VOL SCORERS In Pat Summitt’s 37-year reign as the head coach of the Tennessee Lady Vol basketball program, she has seen 36 of her 161 all-time players join the 1,000 point club at UT. That’s an amazing average of nearly one 1,000-point scorer for each year she has coached at Tennessee. Chamique Holdsclaw’s career total of 3,025 points set the basketball standard for men or women at the University of Tennessee.

DID YOU KNOW? /// LADY VOL ATHLETICS
OUTLOOK
Though female athletes have competed at UT since 1903, they have been managed by a separate administration only since 1976. For over 30 years, athletics for women at Tennessee have enjoyed an enormous amount of growth and success. The department has been a model for other women’s programs across the country because of its competitive teams, outstanding facilities, quality staff members and excellent graduation rates among student-athletes. Intercollegiate athletics for women at the University of Tennessee officially began during the 1976-77 academic year. The UT women’s department had nine intercollegiate sports at that time, including basketball, cross country, field hockey, gymnastics, swimming and diving, tennis, indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball. In the inaugural year, the staff numbered 17 and a budget of $120,000 serviced approximately 75 athletes. Despite the fact that field hockey and gymnastics are no longer a part of the department, growth in staff, budget and sports continually increased through the 1970s and into the 21st century. Under women’s athletics director Joan Cronan, nearly 115 staff members are on hand to support 227 student-athletes. With the passage of the Restoration Act of 1988, the original mandates of Title IX have been met at Tennessee with the annexation of four sports. Golf was the first added to UT’s plate in 1992. Rowing and softball joined the family during the 1995-96 season, and soccer, the 11th women’s intercollegiate sport at Tennessee, began play in the fall of 1996.

DAVE HART
VICE CHANCELLOR / DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS
The University of Tennessee named Dave Hart vice chancellor and director of athletics on Sept. 5, 2011. Hart, who was the director of athletics at Florida State University for 12 years from 1995- 2007, previously served as Executive Director of Athletics at the University of Alabama, where he led day-to-day operations of the department. Comprehensive athletic success exemplified Hart’s tenure as the Florida State athletic director, as a combined 35 ACC Championships were won by 10 different Seminole athletic programs during his tenure. Additionally, the Seminole football team won nine ACC titles and appeared in four national championship games, winning the 1999 BCS National Championship with a Sugar Bowl victory over Virginia Tech. During Hart’s three years at Alabama, the Crimson Tide claimed the 2009 BCS National Championship and the individual athletic teams posted a combined eight top three finishes nationally over the last three years. He has 20 years of service as a director of athletics, including eight at East Carolina (1987-95), an athletic program he joined in 1983 after coaching and teaching at the high school following his graduation from Alabama. Highly respected as a visionary and industry leader, Hart’s career has featured service as the president of both the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics and the Division IA Athletics Directors’ Association. A former recipient of the Robert R. Neyland Award honoring lifetime achievement, Hart has also
been named by his colleagues as the Athletic Director of the Year for the Southeast Region in both 2000 and 2005, one of a few select individual to receive the honor multiple times. During his 13 years at Florida State, Hart negotiated unprecedented, multi-million dollar contracts for the department totaling in excess of $175 million. He also devised and executed an extensive and comprehensive facilities master plan for athletics that eclipsed the $150 million mark. Hart initiated a multi-faceted Student Development/Life Skills program for all student-athletes at FSU, an endeavor recognized nationally as a “Program of Excellence” by the Division I-A Athletics Directors’ Association. He spearheaded the rewriting of the department’s mission statement to put the student athlete at the core of athletic department priorities in its goal to build comprehensive excellence throughout all components of the department. While at FSU, Hart made many key head coaching hires, including the hiring of FSU’sfirst African-American basketball coach in Leonard Hamilton. Under Hart’s direction, FSU formalized a varsity club to encourage the participation of former student-athletes in athletic department activities. He also placed a significant focus on the growth of women’s athletics at FSU, a commitment reflected in increased funding, competitive success and facility upgrades. Academic success also accompanied Hart’s time at FSU, as the school became home to the inaugural National Student-Athlete of the Year, a State of Florida Woman of the Year recipient and a Rhodes Scholar. A record number of FSU student-athletes made the ACC Academic Honor Roll, were recipients of NCAA postgraduate scholarship awards and obtained degrees. Student-athlete community service involvement became a priority under Hart with student-athletes contributing more than 5,000 hours in community outreach projects.
Hart has also earned the Athletics Directors’ Award for advancing the quality and progress of student-athletes and the athletics program while at Florida State, and in 2008, he received the James J. Corbett Award, the highest honor bestowed by NACDA. Hart’s commitment to service includes considerable time on numerous national and conference committees, including the NCAA Council, the NCAA Honors and Awards Committee and the NCAA Special Events and Postseason Bowls Committee, and he has consulted to the NCAA Student-Athlete Advisory Council. Hart was one of 11 athletic directors nationally who worked as an advisory group to presidents and conference commissioners in ongoing meetings and discussions regarding Bowl Championship Series (BCS) format options and similar issues related to the football postseason. In addition to his prominent leadership roles nationally, Hart had direct involvement with the renegotiations of both of the ACC’s football and basketball television contracts and chaired the ACC Television Committee as well as the ACC Men’s Basketball and Football committees. Hart has served as Executive Director of Athletics at Alabama since August of 2008. Hart joined the UA Athletic Department after serving as an advisor to the Atlantic Coast Conference and ACC Commissioner John Swofford. A 1971 Alabama graduate, Hart played basketball for the Crimson Tide under legendary head coach C.M. Newton and earned a master’s degree from UA in 1972 while working as a graduate assistant basketball coach. Hart met his wife, the former Pam Humble, while at Alabama. Pam is a 1970 graduate of The University of Alabama, and the couple has three children: Rick, who serves currently as the athletic director at UT Chattanooga, Jamie and Kelly. The Harts are the grandparents of five grandchildren: Trevor, Caroline, McKinley, Olivia and Kingsley.
JOAN CRONAN
WOMEN’S ATHLETICS DIRECTOR
Triumphant collegiate programs are able to distinguish themselves from their counterparts because of superiority on the field of competition and within the classroom. The integrity and proactive guidance of the person at the helm is what has provided the edge to the University of Tennessee women’s athletics department for almost three decades. So it comes as no surprise that UT Chancellor Dr. Jimmy Cheek named Women’s Athletics Director Joan Cronan as the Interim Vice Chancellor/Director of Athletics on June 9, 2011. It is a position she held until Sept. 21, 2011 when Dave Hart moved into the permanent role. Under the vision and direction of Cronan, a heavilyrequested speaker on leadership and motivation on the national and local levels, the University of Tennessee Lady Vols have garnered a reputation as one of the most visible and respected programs throughout the nation. UT’s success in both the athletic and academic realms speaks volumes to her decision-making and leadership ability, as demonstrated by her appointment to the 2010 NCAA Division I Leadership Council and selected by her peers as the president of the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) in 2008-09. Cronan is also a former president of the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletics Administrators (NACWAA). Both organizations have also honored Cronan as well. She was selected by NACWAA to receive their 2005 Athletic Director of the Year award. In 2004, Cronan was honored by NACDA with their Southeast Region Athletic Director of the Year award. In 2009, the United States Sports Academy elected Cronan to its Board of Trustees and she was presented with the Women of Achievement Award: “Women Who Make a Difference” by the International Women’s Forum. Starting her 29th year at Tennessee in 2011-12, Cronan’s continued admiration by her peers and the 184
community is well deserved because of her efforts in facilitating the operation of a first-class program, which has finished in the top two in the Southeastern Conference Women’s All-Sports Award from The New York Times Regional Newspaper Group for six of the past seven years, including three first-place finishes. In three of the past six years, all 11 Lady Vol teams participated in postseason play. The UT women’s athletics department achieved a seventh place finish in the 2007 Director’s Cup – Tennessee’s highest finish ever. She strives not only to keep UT as one of the premier women’s athletics departments in the nation but also to improve women’s athletics on a local, regional and national level. Cronan joined UT from the College of Charleston in South Carolina, where she served as the athletics director for 10 years and was later inducted into that institution’s hall of fame. Under Cronan, the school was selected as the No. 1 women’s athletics program in the country in 1980 by the American Women’s Sports Foundation. Closer to home, Cronan is a past president of the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame, is active on the boards of First Tennessee Bank and the YMCA, and has served as vice chair of the Leadership Knoxville board. She also works closely with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and Athletes in Action, having served as a board member for the local FCA chapter and as a national trustee. In 2003, Cronan was inducted into the FCA Hall of Champions. Additionally, she finds time to be a deacon at Central Baptist Church-Bearden. In 1998, Cronan’s work earned her accord from the Knoxville Sports Hall of Fame, as she was named its Administrator of the Year. Other honors include chairing the 1991 Knoxville area United Way Fund Drive, serving as president of the Executive Women’s Association, receiving the 1994 Toastmaster’s International Communication and Leadership Award and earning the 1994 AOPi Citizen of the Year Award. In March of 1987, the Women’s Basketball Coaches
TENNESSEE LADY VOL BASKETBALL /// 2011-12 MEDIA GUIDE
Association honored her hard work, dedication and success by presenting her with its leadership award. She also won the 1995 regional award for the National Association of Collegiate Women’s Athletic Administrators. Cronan has served on the NCAA’s Executive Committee, Management Council, as well as the NCAA’s Council, and is a member of the NCAA Championship Cabinet. She also has been a member of the Southeastern Conference Executive Committee. As a former coach, Cronan served a two-year stint at Tennessee from 1968 to 1970. In 1969, she led the women’s basketball team to an alternate berth in the first-ever National Invitational Collegiate Basketball Tournament. While at Charleston, she continued her success, not only as a basketball coach but in tennis as well. In 1981, she gave up coaching to devote her fulltime attention to her duties as teacher and athletics director. A graduate of LSU, Cronan earned her B.S. in 1966 and her M.S. in 1968, both in physical education. She was a fall 1995 inductee into LSU’s Alumni Hall of Distinction. Currently an avid golfer and tennis player, Cronan was ranked as high as second in the South in doubles and is a former state and Southern doubles champion. Cronan makes her home in Gettysvue. She and her late husband Tom, who passed away on Aug. 18, 2006, after a valiant battle with pancreatic cancer, have two daughters; Kristi (Mrs. Rhett Benner) and Stacey (Mrs. Kent Bristow), both 1994 graduates of UT; three grandsons, Chase Thomas and Reed Kent Bristow, and Quinn Leighton Benner; and two granddaughters, Reese Lauren Benner and Larkin Ann Bristow.

LADY VOL BASKETBALL TRADITIONS ALL-AMERICANS
MASCOT
For over 30 years, when the 10 most elite women’s basketball players in the nation are named by the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) for Kodak or State Farm All-America accolades, chances are you’ll find a player from the University of Tennessee on the list. The Lady Vols hold the distinction of having produced the most WBCA-chosen All-Americans with 20 women earning the honor. Additionally, nine players have been named to the team more than once during their careers.In March 1996, Chamique Holdsclaw became the first Lady Vol rookie to be named to the team and was a repeat winner in 1997, 1998 and 1999 adding her to the short-list of four-time Kodak AllAmericans. Tamika Catchings etched her name in the record books in 2001 when she, too, became a four-time Kodak All-American, earning the honor in 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001. In 1999, the Lady Vols made history when the Three Meeks -- Holdsclaw, Catchings and Semeka Randall -- were named to the 1999 Kodak All-America team. It marked the first time that three players from one school were named to the team in the same year.
The official mascot is Smokey, a rather pleasant blue tick coon hound that has been on the job since 1953. The dog is a native breed of Tennessee and is in a line of canines used for hunting raccoons. The present Smokey, the ninth in a line of such dogs provided by the family of the late Rev. W.C. Brooks of Knoxville, is appropriately called Smokey IX. Smokey was chosen as a result of the 1953 Pep Club contest to select a mascot. At Lady Vol events, a human version of Smokey accompanies the cheerleaders.
CHEERLEADERS Tennessee is one of a handful of women’s athletics programs that sponsors its own varsity cheerleading squad complete with full grant-in-aid. The Lady Vol cheerleaders and mascot Smokey are chosen from a large try-out group in the spring.
FINAL FOUR Since Tennessee earned its first trip to the AIAW National Championships in 1977, every Lady Vol since that time has experienced at least one trip to the Final Four during her career at Tennessee. The Lady Vol Class of 1989 (Bridgette Gordon, Sheila Frost and Melissa McCray), the Class of 1998 (Laurie Milligan) and the Class of 2005 (Shyra Ely, Brittany Jackson, Loree Moore) had the distinction of going to four consecutive Final Fours in their careers. They are the first classes in NCAA women’s basketball history to go to four consecutive championships. Bridgette, Sheila and Melissa also sport two NCAA national championship rings from 1987 and 1989. Milligan, who played in four consecutive NCAA Final Four title games, was the first player in the history of the women’s game to do so. Milligan won titles in 1996, 1997 and 1998.
GRADUATION RATE When Head Coach Pat Summitt recruits a player to the University of Tennessee, she expects her to work hard in the classroom and on the playing court. Sure, there have been players to transfer or decide to leave for one reason or another, but the bottom line is that every player who has completed her eligibility at Tennessee has graduated or is in the process of completing her degree. Because of this commitment, the Lady Vol graduation rate is 100 percent, with a majority of the players completing their degrees on time. In addition, Lady Vols have been awarded 70 individual Academic All-Southeastern Conference citations. Debbie Hawhee took matters a step further when she graduated at the top of her class with honors in December 1991 and began her master’s degree studies while completing her basketball eligibility. Debbie was the first Lady Vol to graduate at the head of her class. During the 2000-01 season, there were four seniors on the team. All-American classmates Tamika Catchings and Semeka Randall picked up diplomas on Dec. 16, 2000, and became the first players to graduate ahead of their class since Hawhee. Both Catchings and Randall were All-SEC Academic honorees during their Lady Vol careers and completed their eligibility in graduate school. In his December 2000 commencement address, Dr. Bill Madia, director of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), singled out the early graduation of Catchings and Randall with some interesting scientific data. A mathematician at ORNL figured out that the probability of two AllAmericans graduating ahead of their class from the same institution was 100 million to 1. In May 2001, fellow senior Kristen “Ace” Clement picked up her UT diploma and fifth-year senior Kyra Elzy earned her master’s degree. Elzy became the first Lady Vol in history to earn both a B.S. and an M.S. during her eligibility. In May 2004, senior Kara Lawson earned the Torch Bearer Award, the highest honor bestowed to a student by the University of Tennessee. Amazingly, every one of these graduated players has also had the opportunity to play in at least one Final Four during her career at UT.
NICKNAME The formation of the Women’s Intercollegiate Athletics Department for the 197677 academic year prompted much discussion concerning a proper nickname for the distaff athletes. After long consideration and debate, it was decided the female studentathletes would be known as “Lady Volunteers” or “Lady Vols.” The University of Tennessee, as the state’s land grant university, draws the nickname of its athletic teams (Volunteers) from the name most associated with the state. Tennessee acquired the name “The Volunteer State” in the early days of the 19th Century when General Andrew Jackson mustered large armies from his home state to fight the Indians and later the British at the Battle of New Orleans. The name became even more prominent in the Mexican War when Governor Aaron V. Brown issued a call for 2,800 men to battle Santa Anna, and some 30,000 volunteered. The name “Volunteers” or “Lady Volunteers” is frequently shortened to “Vols” or “Lady Vols” for the men’s and women’s athletic teams.

TENNESSEE LADY VOL BASKETBALL /// 2011-12 MEDIA GUIDE
OLYMPIANS The UT Lady Volunteers tip the balance when it comes to representation on USA Women’s Olympic Basketball Teams. Since basketball was introduced as a medal sport for women in 1976, every team in the past nine Olympiads has sported at least one Lady Vol on the roster. In all, 15 players and two coaches have traded their Tennessee orange and white for the red, white and blue of the USA. Along the way, a collection of medals has been brought home: gold medals for Tamika Catchings, Kara Lawson and Candace Parker in 2008, a gold medal by Catchings in 2004, gold medals by Nikki McCray and Chamique Holdsclaw in 2000, gold for McCray and Carla McGhee in 1996, a gold for Bridgette Gordon in 1988, and gold for Lea Henry and Cindy Noble in 1984; silver medals by Pat (Head) Summitt, Cindy Brogdon, and Patricia Roberts in 1976; and a bronze medal by Daedra Charles in 1992. Holly Warlick, Jill Rankin and Cindy Noble were deprived of their medal hopes due to the boycott of the 1980 Moscow Olympic Games. The USA team had finished first in the pre-Olympics qualifying tournament and was poised to take on the great USSR team that summer. In the coaching ranks, Pat Summitt hung up her sneakers after the 1976 Games and was named the assistant for the 1980 team and the head coach for the gold medalist 1984 squad. Assisting her in 1984 was then-Lady Vol Assistant Coach, Nancy Darsch. Darsch made a return trip to the Olympics as an assistant in the summer of 1996. She is the only assistant to garner two trips and two gold medals.
PAT’S PALS Prior to every Lady Vol home game, several dozen youngsters don a “Pat’s Pal” T-shirt, grab an orange and white shaker, and form a human tunnel for the team to run through prior to pregame warm-ups. Elementary and middle school girls and boys are eligible to join “Pat’s Pals”.
ROCKY TOP Over 40 years ago, a husband-wife song writing team, Boudleaux and Felice Bryant penned the song “Rocky Top,” in Gatlinburg, Tenn. Since that time, the tune has emerged as the unofficial fight song for UT athletic teams. Rocky Top Wish that I was on ol’ ROCKY TOP, Down in the Tennessee hills; Ain’t no smoggy smoke on ROCKY TOP, Ain’t no telephone bills. Once I had a girl on ROCKY TOP, Half bear, other half cat; Wild as mink, but sweet as soda pop, I still dream about that. [CHORUS] ROCKY TOP, you’ll always be Home sweet home to me; Good ol’ ROCKY TOP-ROCKY TOP Tennessee.
Once two strangers climbed ol’ ROCKY TOP Looking for a moonshine still; Strangers ain’t come down from ROCKY TOP, Reckon they never will. Corn won’t grow at all on ROCKY TOP, Dirt’s too rocky by far; That’s why all the folks on ROCKY TOP Get their corn from a jar. [CHORUS] (Copyright 1967 by HOUSE OF BRYANT Publications, P.O. Box 120608, Nashville, TN 37212)
SCHOOL COLORS The colors Orange and White were selected by Charles Moore, a member of the first football team in 1891, and were later approved by a vote of the student body. The colors were those of the common American daisy which grew in profusion on “The Hill.”
STREET SIGNS Generally, you won’t find many city streets named after women, unless you’re on the University of Tennessee campus. In May 1999, Chamique Holdsclaw Drive replaced UT Drive on the Tennessee campus and is now one of the main routes to Thompson-Boling Arena. You can reach Chamique Holdsclaw Drive from Pat Head Summitt Street that runs in front of Stokely Athletic Center.
