Big Orange Slices... Off to Our Best Start Since 2007! At 3-1 overall through its first four matches, Tennessee is off to its best opening to a campaign since also starting 3-1 in 2007. With matches this weekend versus Middle Tennessee and at UNC Greensboro, the Lady Vol soccer team has a chance to equal the best record over the opening six contests in program history at 5-1 done by both the 2002 & 2003 UT squads. Both of those teams eventually won either SEC regular season (2003) or tournament titles (2002, 2003) and advanced on to the NCAA Sweet 16. We’ve Entered the Rankings! For the first time since Aug. 24, 2009, (#23 in the Top Drawer Soccer poll) the Tennessee Lady Vol soccer team finds itself back in the national rankings. Off to a 3-1 start and boasting a recent 1-0 victory over then-#18 Texas A&M, the Big Orange have climbed to #23 in the NSCAA/Continental Tire coaches poll and to #18 in the SoccerTimes.com listing. The last time UT found itself in the weekly NSCAA coaches poll was on Sept. 9, 2008, also at #23. Check Us Out On the Tube in 2011 Tennessee soccer fans will have three opportunities to check out the Big Orange on television during the 2011 regular season. UT will play at home versus Florida (Sept. 25 at 1 p.m. ET) and at Vanderbilt (Oct. 16 at 1 p.m. CT) live on Comcast Sports Southeast (CSS), while the Lady Vols will host Auburn on Fox Sports Net (FSN) on Oct. 23 at 1 p.m. The Orange & White has seen a great deal of success on television during the program’s 16year history, boasting a 25-9-3 (.716) record in 37 all-time appearances on the tube. Last season, Tennessee was 2-2 overall on TV with wins over Ole Miss (CSS) and Alabama (CSS) and losses at #13 Florida (SUN Sports) and at #14 South Carolina (ESPNU). Call Her “Caroline Clutch” Tennessee sophomore Caroline Brown has wasted little time in demonstrating her offensive prowess to open her second season in the Orange & White. The Hershey, Pa., native tallied three goals, including posting the first two-goal match of her career (vs. Oklahoma), with two of those being clutch match-winners as the Lady Vols toppled Kansas (2-1, OT) and Oklahoma (3-1). Most recently, Brown was called upon for another penalty kick, this one against #18 Texas A&M in the 34th minute and she knocked it home as UT posted a 1-0 upset of the high-powered defending Big 12 champion Aggies. The 5-9 forward now owns seven career scores while amazingly, FIVE OF THOSE GOALS ARE OF THE MATCH-WINNING VARIETY. For her efforts during the road wins at KU and OU, Brown received nods as both the Southeastern Conference’s Offensive Player of the Week (8/22) and as one of CollegeSoccer360. com’s Primetime Performers of the Week.

Early Success on the Road Has Often Been Elusive By defeating Kansas and Oklahoma on the road over Aug. 19 & 21, the occurrence marked the first time that Tennessee soccer emerged victorious from its first two true road matches of the season since back during the 2001 season when UT toppled #13 BYU and James Madison in Provo, Utah, and Harrisonburg, Va., respectively. UT HAS NEVER WON ITS FIRST THREE TRUE ROAD MATCHES TO BEGIN A CAMPAIGN, SOMETHING THE BIG ORANGE COULD POTENTIALLY ACCOMPLISH AT UNC-GREENSBORO. Perhaps every more stunning is the fact that the back-to-back victories at KU and OU marked the first time in program history that Tennessee won its first two matches of the season away from Knoxville (including neutral site contests). The closest the Big Orange had come previously was a 1-0-1 record back in 2009 against #19 Minnesota (0-0, 2OT) and Wisconsin (1-0) in Minne 2011 TENNESSEE SOCCER MEDIA RELATIONS CONTACT Brian Davis | Assistant Media Relations Director | Cell 865.696.7947 | Email bdavis16@utk.edu

Notes... apolis, Minn. Once again the rugged scheduling of UT Coach Angela Kelly has often played a role in an early-season defeat. Home Sweet Home The Lady Vols have long made winning on their home pitch a priority. At 104-35-6 (.738) all-time at the Regal Soccer Stadium (previously the UT Soccer Complex) and 1-1 thus far in 2011 (with a win over #18 Texas A&M), Tennessee has averaged nearly seven wins a campaign in the friendly confines over program history. Last season, the Big Orange were 7-3-1 in Knoxville with victories over Western Kentucky, Richmond, Chattanooga, Arkansas, Vanderbilt, Alabama and Georgia. One of the Top Players in the Nation! Tennessee senior forward Chelsea Hatcher has found her way onto the 2011 preseason release of Top Drawer Soccer’s Top 100 Women’s Collegiate Soccer Players in the Nation. The Cincinnati, Ohio, native comes in at #84, joining seven other Southeastern Conference soccer players in the listing. Thus far in 2011, Hatcher owns a goal and an assist over the opening four contests.

Never Started 3-0 Did you know that despite all the success the Tennessee Lady Vol soccer program has had throughout the years, the squad has never started a season 3-0. The 1997, 2003, 2007 and 2011 teams all opened a perfect 2-0 before dropping their next matches. A 2-1 loss to #15/8 UCLA on Aug. 26 dashed UT’s hopes of accomplishing the feat this season. Of course the major reason a loss has often materialized during the early part of the year is the daunting non-conference schedule played by head coach Angela Kelly to prepare her team for the league and postseason slates. Among squads that UT has faced in that second or third match throughout the years (often on the road) are such foes as perennial national titlist North Carolina and nationally-rated squads such as Portland, Southern California, Washington, West Virginia, Penn State, Virginia, Maryland and UCLA just to name a few. The scheduling system has often seemed to pay dividends down the road as UT has won three SEC regular-season crowns, four SEC Tournament titles and been to five NCAA Sweet 16’s. Tennessee Season Openers UT is 11-5 all-time in season openers, playing on the road or at a neutral site on eight occasions (3-5). The Big Orange has won seven of its last nine lidlifters including its 2011 opener, a 2-1 (OT) victory over Kansas on Aug. 19 at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex in Lawrence, Kan. A “Senior CLASS” Act! Tennessee Lady Vol midfielder/forward Chelsea Hatcher has been chosen as one of 30 national nominees for the 2011 Lowe’s Senior CLASS Women’s Soccer Award®. The accolade is given each season to a player who excels both on and off the pitch and best exemplifies the true definition of a “student-athlete.” At the end of last season, Hatcher was honored with a spot on the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) All-Region Second Team and a place on the All-Southeastern Conference First Team after leading the Big Orange in goals (eight), points (20) and shots (105). The 5-7 midfielder/forward began the 2011 campaign with 11 career goals, six assists and 28 total points over 58 matches played during her three-year stint at Rocky Top. She had also moved into fifth alltime in UT history by launching 224 total shots (64 on frame). The Opening Prelude... The Big Orange opened the year with an exhibition match by traveling to Birmingham, Ala., on Fri., Aug. 12, for a 0-0 deadlock at Samford. In all, 20 different Lady Vol players saw action in the contest, including eight freshmen who drew their first playing time while clad in the Orange & White. Tennessee rookie goalkeeper Julie Eckel managed five saves while combining with redshirt sophomore net minder Jessica Rolfs on the shutout. UT senior forward Chelsea Hatcher led the Tennessee offensive effort with three total shots, two on frame, while junior midfielder Kylie Bono, senior forward Lara Langworthy and junior midfielder Amy Harrison were each credited with a drive on frame. 2011 Lady Vol Soccer...A Brief Preview Tennessee enters the new campaign returning 16 letter-winners from last season’s squad that posted a 10-9-1 overall record while finishing third in the Southeastern Conference’s overall standings at 7-3-1. Included are players who scored 32 of UT’s 34 total goals and registered 89 of 97 combined points. Among the returnees for the Big Orange (with last season’s stat total in parentheses) are 2010 National Soccer Coaches Association (NSCAA) All-South Region and first team All-Southeastern Conference midfielder/forward Chelsea Hatcher (eight goals, four assists; Cincinnati, Ohio), forward Emily Dowd (seven goals, one assist; Gainesville, Fla.) and defender/forward Alexis Owens (one goal, two assists; Carmel, Ind.), experienced midfielders Kylie Bono (five goals, three assists; Yorba Linda, Calif.), Emily Shore (one goal, five assists; Gainesville, Fla.) and Amy Harrison (two goals; Winnipeg, Alberta, Canada), midfielder/forwards Caroline Brown (three goals, two assists; Hershey, Pa.), Sanna Saarinen (two goals, three assists; Espoo, Finland) and Lara Langworthy (Murfreesboro, Tenn.), midfielder/defender Tori Bailey (one goal, two assists; Fenton, Mich.) as well as battle-tested defenders Ali Hall (one goal, two assists; Hawthorn Woods, Ill.), Chelsea Kephart (1033 minutes in 2011; Cumming, Ga.) and Hannah Hut (Highlands Ranch, Colo.). A high-profile group of 11 freshmen have now arrived at Rocky Top to bolster Tennessee Head Coach Angela Kelly’s 27-member roster, including goalkeepers Julie Eckel (Cordova, Tenn.) and Hannah Steadman (Kinnelon, N.J.), forwards Iyana Moore (Marietta, Ga.) and Kaelyn Angelo (Oak Ridge, Tenn.), midfielders Brittney Wade (Houston, Texas), Tyler Law (Jacksonville, Fla.), Ashley Hartert (Marvin, N.C.) and Lexi Krause (Plainfield, Ill.) as well as defenders Alison Clarke (Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada), Allie Sirna (Solon, Ohio) and Carlee Dimry (Carlsbad, Calif.).

LAWRENCE, Kan. - A penalty drawn inside the 18-yard box by Lady Vol senior forward Emily Dowd at 97:16 was converted via a match-winning penalty kick by sophomore midfielder/forward Caroline Brown as Tennessee (1-0) fought back from an early one-score deficit to top Kansas, 2-1 (OT), on Fri., Aug. 19, in both teams’ 2011 season-opener at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex in Lawrence, Kan. Kansas managed to out-shoot the Big Orange by a razor-thin, 15-14 total and registered a 7-6 advantage in shots on frame, while each squad earned six corner kicks in the contest. UT freshman goalkeeper Julie Eckel earned her first career victory between the pipes by making six saves, including a match-saving stop by racing off her line with 3:31 left in overtime to thwart a breakaway by Kansas forward Ingrid Vidal. Brown led the Lady Vol offense with four shots, including the penalty kick score. Dowd and senior forward Chelsea Hatcher each tallied a trio of shots, with the former launching all three of her drives successfully on frame. The Jayhawks broke the scoreless dead-lock 13:18 into the match-up as a through ball from Whitney Berry up the middle to Jamie Fletcher gave her a step on her marker. One-on-one against Eckel, Fletcher scored from 14 yards out into bottom left corner. In the 33rd minute of action, Tennessee crossed into the middle of the 18-yard box. Kansas midfielder Liana Salazar attempted to clear the ball but her sliding attempt ended up in the back of her own net to grant UT a match-tying own goal. The Big Orange came oh so close to getting the winner in regulation in the 86th minute as Dowd made a great move to beat a KU player in the midfield. She fed up the right wing to Hatcher who crossed a ball to the left post. Brown was making a run to a spot, but just couldn’t quite get there as her sliding tap at the left post just drifted wide. With approximately 1:31 remaining, UT again had a golden opportunity as Brown moved up the right side, got some space and fired a ball that appeared to be going into the net. A Lady Vol stationed at the left post tapped the shot in to make sure of the goal, but was ruled offside as the score was disallowed. After Eckel saved the day by racing off her line with 3:31 left in the initial overtime to thwart a breakaway by KU’s Vidal, Dowd was taken down on the other end of the pitch inside the 18 to earn a penalty call. Brown was summoned to seal the deal and did her job by burying the ball in the left side of the net past Jayhawk keeper Kat Liebetrau to complete the season-opening triumph.

NORMAN, Okla. - The first two-goal game of sophomore midfielder/forward Caroline Brown’s collegiate career helped guide the Tennessee Lady Vol soccer squad (2-0) to a commanding 3-1 victory over Oklahoma (1-1) at the OU Soccer Complex in Norman, Okla. Tennessee out-shot the Sooners by a 12-11 total and registered a 4-2 advantage in corner kicks. In addition to Brown’s impressive scores at 59:45 and 65:38, junior midfielder Kylie Bono added a goal via a penalty kick at the 22:25 mark. Senior forward Chelsea Hatcher and freshman forward Iyana Moore tallied their first assists of the season. Things got a little hairy for the Orange during the ninth minute as a lead pass found Oklahoma’s Zoe Dickson in the clear. Eckel held her ground in a one-on-one situation, however, diving to her right and utilized her legs to make an incredible stop. Tennessee’s initial goal-scoring sequence began with a long free kick taken from 40 yards out on the right wing by freshman defender Alison Clarke. Kylie Bono leapt and flicked a header from the middle of the 18 wide left of goal. Oklahoma keeper Kelsey Devonshire grabbed the ball and made a throw that ended up traveling right to UT senior forward Emily Dowd. She raced in quickly and made a move to beat the net minder as Devonshire tripped Dowd inside the box. The head referee ordered a penalty kick, and Bono stepped up and buried it in the left side of the twine to grant the Big Orange a 1-0 lead at 22:25. The Sooners equalized at 30:35 as a through ball between Lady Vol defenders found Sage Coralli with a step on her marker out even with the right post. She moved in one-on-one against Eckel and fired over the UT freshman’s out-stretched hands from about eight yards to dead-lock the count at 1-1. Tennessee moved back in front on the scoreboard at 59:45 via one of the toughest shots you’ll ever see succeed in the sport of soccer. Off a Big Orange throw-in, Hatcher lifted a ball that landed at Brown’s feet just inside the right boundary of the 18. From a very sharp angle off the side of frame, the Hershey, Pa., native lifted a shot over the keeper that traveled in at the top left corner and nestled in the netting just inside the left post. The Lady Vols managed an insurance goal at 65:36 to nab a commanding 3-1 advantage over the Sooners. Located about 25 yards out in the middle of the pitch, Moore lifted an ambitious, high-arcing shot towards frame that’s trajectory literally saw the ball come down inches from the crossbar. OU’s keeper Devonshire had no choice but to leap and try to parry it over the bar, but her attempt popped straight up in the air and landed about three yards out near the right post. Brown was waiting right there to tap in her second goal of the match and provide Moore with her first collegiate assist.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - In front of the fifth-largest crowd in Regal Soccer Stadium history (2,046) on the opening evening of the First Tennessee Lady Vol Classic, the Tennessee Lady Vol soccer squad battled valiantly but saw its upset bid undone by #8 UCLA scores at 80:27 and 84:22 as the Bruins rallied for a 2-1 victory. Big Orange senior forward Chelsea Hatcher granted UT the lead at 62:02 by registering her initial goal of the 2011 campaign off an assist from junior midfielder Kylie Bono. For the match UCLA out-shot the Lady Vols, 21-11, but led Tennessee only 7-4 in both shots on frame and corner kicks. UT freshman goalkeeper Julie Eckel made five saves between the pipes, while her counterpart, UCLA’s Katelyn Rowland, stopped three shots. The best early chance for the Lady Vols occurred at 20:21 as a lazer from approximately 22 yards out on the right wing by Caroline Brown ricocheted off the inside of the left post before being cleared. In the opening half’s final seconds it appeared as if the Bruins had gone in front as a cross from the right wing was blasted home near the left post. The sideline official had his flag up, however, to signal that UCLA was offside as the two teams ventured to the break at 0-0. During the 52nd minute Sydney Leroux unleashed another drive from about 16 yards out in the middle that Eckel stopped. The ball escaped from her grasp, however, and rolled over toward the right post as UT’s rookie net-minder quickly raced over and dove to corral the rebound before an approaching Bruin player could fire off a shot. Tennessee’s opening salvo of the second half was a big one as Hatcher took a feed from Bono out on the right side of frame. With UCLA’s keeper apparently expecting a cross, Hatcher absolutely ripped a bending drive right inside the upright from a ridiculously sharp angle to grant the Big Orange a 1-0 advantage. The Bruins finally managed an equalizer at 80:27 as a feed from Ally Courtnall from the middle of the 18 towards the right post was settled by forward Zakiya Bywaters about five yards out. She pivoted quickly and managed to beat Eckel from a sharp angle to dead-lock the count at 1-1. During the 82nd minute Bono had a golden chance to push Tennessee back in front, but saw her drive from out front blocked by a UCLA defender. With regulation time beginning to run short a shot by UCLA midfielder Sam Mewis was deflected by Eckel but the sphere bounced back into play. Leroux found herself in the right spot near the left post to clean up the deflection from six yards out and complete the 2-1, comeback victory.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - An outstanding Lady Vol defensive effort and a first-half penalty kick conversion from sophomore forward Caroline Brown helped the Tennessee soccer squad (3-1-0) to an impressive 1-0 victory over #18 Texas A&M at the Regal Soccer Stadium during final day action of the First Tennessee Lady Vol Classic. The crucial penalty call was drawn by the slick footwork of UT junior Alexis Owens at 34:16. The Carmel, Ind., native managed to get past diving Aggie goalkeeper Jordan Day inside the 18-yard box, forcing the net-minder into a tripping call that left no option but for the head official to point to the penalty spot. For Brown the penalty kick conversion raised her team-leading total to four goals over the first four matches of 2011. In a very physical match that saw each team whistled for 15 fouls with five total yellow cards issued (three for the Aggies), Texas A&M out-shot the Lady Vols by a 15-8 margin and 6-3 in shots on frame, but the Big Orange managed a 4-3 advantage on corner kicks. On her way to earning First Tennessee Lady Vol Classic All-Tournament honors alongside her teammates Brown and freshman defender Allie Sirna, rookie goalkeeper Julie Eckel made five stops in securing the third triumph of her brief collegiate career and her first solo shutout. Things got a little hairy for the Lady Vols in the 32nd and 33rd minutes as Kelley Monogue launched back-to-back shots over a 1:06 time frame that ricocheted off the crossbar and right post. After UT escaped the close calls unscathed, it was Owens’ chance to shine at 34:16 as a ball played into the middle of the 18 by freshman forward Iyana Moore landed at the feet of Owens. She pivoted quickly and managed to get around the keeper Jordan Day whose only option was to trip the UT player to save a potential score. The head official pointed at the spot and Brown calmly stepped up to drive home her fourth goal of the season for a vital 1-0 lead. At 57:44 the UT backline again saved the day as a Lady Vol positioned near the goal line managed to keep a shot from A&M defender Meghan Streight from going in the net via a vital team save. With the Aggies ramping up the heat in a desperate attempt to draw even, things got a little chippy as the head official ended up displaying five total yellow cards, including two on each team over a stretch from 74:27 to 84:11. As regulation time began to ebb away, Eckel continued her inspired play between the pipes, stopping shots from Merritt Mathias at 80:46 and 82:04. On the latter of the two stops the Cordova, Tenn., native managed to deflect the drive outside the right post, but saw the ball land about a foot over the end line. On the resulting A&M corner, Eckel managed to leap high in the midst of a crowd inside the six-yard box to punch the cross out of danger.
