2012 Tennessee Volunteer Baseball Game Notes
DAVE SERRANO HEAD COACH
12
First Season at Tennessee Overall Record: 311-161-1 (.659) Cerritos College, 1985 Trinity College & University, 2003
Following a nationwide search, Dave Serrano’s energy and passion for the University of Tennessee, combined with his impeccable track record of success made him the choice to become the 24th head coach of the Volunteer baseball program. A former UT assistant, he was welcomed back to the Big Orange family on June 15, 2011. A veteran of seven College World Series and one of just 11 coaches to lead two different programs to Omaha, Serrano arrives at Rocky Top with a career record of 289-139-1 (.675) in seven seasons as a Division I head coach. After leading UC Irvine to the 2007 CWS in his third year at the helm of the Anteaters, he moved on to Cal State Fullerton where he averaged 43.75 wins per season in his four campaigns with the Titans, including an appearance in Omaha in 2009. Serrano, 46, returns to the site of his first Division I job, as he served two seasons as an assistant coach at Tennessee from 1995-96, following seven years at Cerritos Junior College. His first taste of Omaha came as a Volunteer, as he helped lead a Big Orange squad featuring all-time UT greats Todd Helton and R.A. Dickey to the College World Series for the first time in over four decades in 1995. During Serrano’s first stint in Knoxville, Tennessee posted an impressive 97-36 (.729) record, including a school-record 54 wins in 1995. Serrano recently finished his fourth season as the head coach at Cal State Fullerton, where he earned Big West Coach of the Year honors for the second season in a row after leading the Titans to their 20th consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance. He previously claimed Baseball America National Coach of the Year accolades after guiding UC Irvine to the first College World Series appearance in program history in 2007. During his 17 seasons at the Division I level, Serrano has posted an impeccable track record that includes continuous top 25 recruiting classes and 16 postseason bids. He has also tutored 161 draft picks, including seven first-round selections, dating back to the start of his coaching career at Cerritos College in 1988, a total of 23 of which have reached the Major League level. Serrano graduated from Cerritos High School in 1982 and played two seasons at Cerritos College. In 1985, he went 12-1 and earned junior college All-American honors while helping the Falcons to a 39-5 record en route to the state championship. Serrano then pitched for Augie Garrido’s 1986 Cal State Fullerton squad, posting a 3-4 record with one save in 15 appearances. In 2010, Serrano represented his country for the first time in his career, serving as the pitching coach for Bill Kinneberg’s USA Baseball Collegiate National Team. He helped coach the team, which included Titan pupils Nick Ramirez and Noe Ramirez, to a V FISU Championship silver medal in Tokyo, Japan. Serrano has coached 19 players that have starred for USA Baseball National Teams, including Helton, Dickey and Augie Ojeda from Tennessee. Serrano holds a bachelor’s degree from Trinity College and University (2003) and was born on June 28, 1964, in Torrence, Calif. He and his wife, Tracy, have three sons, Kyle, Zachary and Parker.
TWO PROGAMS TO OMAHA
“Coach Serrano was the pitching coach when I was at Tennessee, and it was obvious even then that he was going to be a very successful head coach down the road. He has certainly proven that, taking both UC Irvine and Cal State Fullerton to the College World Series. He is extremely knowledgeable about the game of baseball, and Vol fans should be very excited that we were able to steal him away. I look forward to him getting the Tennessee program back on the winning track.” -- Todd Helton, former Vol and five-time MLB All-Star “Dave is a guy that believes in the legacy of Tennessee baseball and I feel like that is a big part of what this program is all about. I know it was when I was here. I’m certainly aware that I am no more than the product of people that poured into me well and loved on me well while I was here, two of them being Bill Mosiello and Dave Serrano. I think whatever level of talent I brought into UT from high school, they cultivated it.” -- R.A. Dickey , former Vol and current New York Mets Pitcher “I think the world of him, not only as a baseball coach, but as a business man and a people person. From the chair I sit in, the Tennessee’s search has been a very successful venture and will be putting a coach in a position to make a significant impact for the sport of baseball at that university. The SEC is already a great league and the addition of Dave only makes it even more competitive. He is simply one of the brightest young minds in college baseball.” -- George Horton, Oregon baseball coach “Coach Serrano is, without question, one of the best coaches in all of baseball today, at any level. He has a unique ability to not just put together great teams but to build a successful and sustainable program that will be known as one of excellence both on and off the field. He is a great friend and has an amazing wife and family. The Vols have hit a grand slam with this hire and I look for Tennessee to be in Omaha in the very near future.” -- Jim Schlossnagle, TCU baseball coach

Notes on the Vols... IF YOU BUILD IT, THEY WILL COME...
It hasn’t taken long for fans in Knoxville to buy in to Coach Serrano and the Vols. Tennessee has already had 10 home crowds of 2,000+, which is four more than it had all of last season. UT’s average attendance of 1,892 through the first 27 home games this season ranks third all-time behind only the 1997 and 1996 campaigns. The team’s total attendance of 51,108 marks just the seventh time it has passed the 50,000 mark. UT has surpassed 60,000 fans in a season just twice (1997 and 2007). The UT-Florida series saw 9,516 fans click the turnstiles at Lindsey Nelson Stadium, making it the second-highest attended series in school history. Only the 1994 series against the Gators has been better, as it had a total of 11,280 fans on hand. Tennessee set a school record for the highest-attended home opener when 2,812 fans were on hand to witness the start of the Dave Serrano era on Feb. 17. Tennessee Regular-Season Home Attendance Year Avg. Dates Total 1. 1997 2,137 30 64,107 2. 1996 1,897 30 56,916 3. 2012 1,892 27 51,108 4. 2007 1,727 35 60,438 5. 1995 1,708 33 56,373
20 IN A HURRY
The Vols needed just 30 games to reach 20 wins this season, their fastest path to that mark since going 20-8 to open the 2005 campaign, which resulted in a trip to the College World Series.
OSBORNE THE IRONMAN
The only four-year starter on the UT roster, senior shortstop Zach Osborne is likely to play more games in the Orange and White than almost anyone in Tennessee history. The Louisville, Ky., native has played in 205 games in his collegiate career, pushing him past fellow Louisville native Chris Burke, UT legend Todd Helton and three others into a tie for sixth in school history.

Osborne started 148 consecutive games, spanning a total of 795 days, before a bruised finger kept him out of the lineup for two games late during the 2010 campaign. Since returning to the lineup on May 17, 2011 vs. Belmont, Osborne has started his last 48 games.
MR. WIZARD
Senior shortstop Zach Osborne has been a defensive wizard for Tennessee this season, having committed just four errors in the first 44 games for a fielding percentage of .981. With a 4-6-3 double play at Mississippi State on April 19, Osborne broke the UT career mark for defensive assists previously set at 524 by fellow Louisville native and bearer of the number two Tennessee jersey Chris Burke.

TAKING THEIR DOSES
With Tennessee batters having been hit by a pitch 77 times this season, tying for the third-highest total in school history. The Vols currently rank ninth in the NCAA in hit by pitch. Tennessee Single-Season Team Hit-By-Pitch HBP Season 1. 90 2000 2. 80 2001 3. 77 2012 77 2005 5. 75 1995
LAYIN' IT DOWN
For someone who has no recollection of ever laying down a sac bunt until his freshman year of college, Chris Fritts sure has figured it out. The junior outfielder currently leads the SEC with 11 sac bunts, two more than any other player. As a team, Tennessee ranks second in the SEC with 45 sac bunts. Auburn is first with 50.
AND GUNNING 'EM DOWN
Fritts has also been an asset defensively for the Vols. The team’s starting centerfielder this season, his third at Rocky Top, he has recorded 14 outfield assists, more than any other player at UT since the statistic was first kept in 2000. Former teammates Josh Liles and Charley Thurber are second on that list with 12 each.
WHATEVER IT TAKES...
Tennessee will take runs any way it can get them. So far this season, the Vols have already scored a run 20 different ways. How the Vols Have Scored How Runs How Runs Balk 5 Fielding Error 6 Walk 3 Wild Pitch 7 Hit By Pitch 2 Groundout 15 Infield Single 7 Double Play 3 Bunt Single 1 Safety Squeeze 8 Single 44 Suicide Squeeze 1 Double 27 Fielder’s Choice 6 Triple 5 Sacrifice Fly 15 Home Run 22 Passed Ball on K 1 Stolen Base 2 TOTAL 186 Throwing Error 6
Tennessee has already had eight innings in which it has scored at least one run without the benefit of even a single hit this season, totaling 13 runs in those frames. The Vols accomplished the feat twice in one game against Mississippi Valley State on March 27, scoring three runs in those two frames.
RISING TO THE CHALLENGE
Tennessee has defeated five ranked teams this season, downing No. 16 Texas, No. 2 Kentucky, No. 19 Georgia, No. 10 South Carolina and No. 4 Florida. The common denominator in three of those contests was UT starting pitcher Zack Godley who started against the Longhorns, Wildcats and Gamecocks, posting a 2-0 record, a 2.61 ERA and 13 strikeouts in 20.2 IP in those games. For the year, Godley is now 4-2 with a 3.52 ERA in a team-leading 64.0 innings, spanning 10 starts. He has struck out 49 and walked just 16 while holding opposing hitters to a .249 batting average.
WHEREVER I WIND UP
Former Vol and current New York Mets pitcher R.A. Dickey’s memoir, entitled “Wherever I Wind Up: My Quest for Truth, Authenticity and the Perfect Knuckleball,” officially went on sale Thursday, March 29. In it, he details a difficult childhood and describes his long journey in Major League Baseball. Dickey became the 18th person inducted into the Tennessee Baseball Hall of Fame at the program’s annual preseason banquet, held this year on Jan. 18.
WILLIAMS GETS THE NOD
The team’s closer for much of his short career, sophomore Nick Williams has grabbed hold of a role in the starting rotation. He opened his stint as a starter with 13.2 consecutive shutout innings, spanning his first two starts and part of his third. In his nine starts, he has a 4.54 ERA with 25 strikeouts and 31 hits allowed in 35.2 IP (.240 opponent BA).
HAVE A MONTH BUDDY
After going just 1-for-13 in the month of February, senior Davis Morgan found another gear in March, hitting .390 (23-for-59) with three doubles, a home run and 11 RBIs over 18 games. Morgan hit safely in 14 of those 18 games, recording six multi-hit contests. He also hit .393 (11for-28) with runners on base, including a .400 mark (6-for-15) with runners in scoring position and was 11-for-21 (.524) with two outs.

SERRANO ALREADY MAKING HISTORY
VOLS RETURN TO HOUSTON COLLEGE CLASSIC
Tennessee skipper Dave Serrano picked up his 300th career win and first SEC victory ion the same day as the Vols shut out No. 19 Georgia, 3-0, in Athens on March 18. Serrano’s lifetime record now stands at 311-161-1 (.659) in eight seasons as a Division I head coach. Head Coach Dave Serrano helped lead the Vols to the second-best start in school history, as they tallied seven straight wins to open the 2012 campaign. The 7-0 start also marked the best by any UT skipper to start his Tennessee managerial career, topping the previous mark of 4-0 set by William H. Newman in 1902 and tied by Z.G. Clevenger in 1911.

GODLEY DOWNS CATS, EARNS PITCHER OF THE WEEK HONORS
After tossing eight strong innings to lead Tennessee to a 4-1 victory over No. 2 Kentucky on Friday, March 23, snapping the Wildcats’ 22-game winning streak and handing them their first loss of the season, junior right-hander Zack Godley was named the SEC Pitcher of the Week, CB360 Primetime Performer of the Week and the College Baseball Insider Southeast Region Pitcher of the Week. Godley became just the 14th Volunteer pitcher to earn the SEC honors, joining the likes of R.A. Dickey, Todd Helton and Luke Hochevar, and just the third to do so since the 2007 campaign with the last
Tennessee made its third appearance in the Houston College Classic when it made the trek to the Lone Star State, March 2-4. The Vols dropped a 7-4 decision to Houston on the first day before bouncing back with an impressive, 5-4, triumph over No. 16 Texas on Saturday. UT then fell to Rice, 11-1, in the final game of the weekend. Senior shortstop Zach Osborne was named to the all-tournament team. The event was held at the home of the Houston Astros, Minute Maid Park. The Vols previously participated in the event in both 2005 and 2008.
VOLS HOOK HORNS DEEP IN HEART OF TEXAS
Led by a career-high seven strong innings on the mound from Zack Godley, Tennessee defeated No. 16 Texas, 5-4, at Minute Maid Park in the Houston College Classic on March 3. The win marked UT’s first over a ranked squad since it swept a doubleheader from then No. 15 Vanderbilt in Knoxville on April 10, 2010.
PUPIL TAKES DOWN THE TEACHER
When the Vols defeated No. 16 Texas, 5-4, at the Houston College Classic on March 3, it marked Dave Serrano’s third career victory, first at Tennessee, over his former head coach Augie Garrido. Serrano made 15 appearances as part of Garrido’s pitching staff at Cal State Fullerton in 1986. En route to the program’s first College World Series berth, Serrano’s UC-Irvine squad also defeated Texas twice in the Round Rock Regional in the 2007 NCAA Tournament.
ROOF OVER UT’S HEAD
In the 103-year history of the Tennessee baseball program, the Vols have played 22 games in domes or stadiums with retractable roofs, posting a 12-10 record in those contests. UT is 4-3 in the Kingdome, playing in the College Baseball Classic in Seattle, Wash., in 1992 and 1994. The Vols played in the Hormel Foods Classic in the Metrodome in 1996 and 2002, going 5-1 in games played in the Minneapolis, Minn., venue. Including its three games this season, Tennessee is 3-6 at Minute Maid Park with a pair of wins over Texas and and another over Oklahoma State.
IT’S A MARATHON, NOT A SPRINT
The Vols took that saying a little too literally on Tuesday, Feb. 21, when they played a 13-inning, four hour, 48-minute contest, the longest in school history, against Western Kentucky. In that game, UT was down to its last strike on two occasions, rallying from a run down in both the ninth and 11th innings. The game broke the previous school record of four hours, 30 minutes set against Morehead State on Feb. 26, 1989. The 13-inning game was the longest (by innings) for the Vols since it played 13 against Arkansas on May 26, 2004, in the SEC Tournament.
STECKENRIDER NAMED SEC POTW
Junior Drew Steckenrider got the season off to a scalding start, earning the first SEC Player of the Week honor of the season. Hitting out of the cleanup spot, the 6-5 switchhitting junior reached base 11 times in 14 plate appearances, going 5-for-8 (.625) with a pair of doubles and his second career home run. He also served as the team’s Opening Day starter, picking up the win after allowing just two hits and no runs and striking out two in his pre-determined four innings of work.

Tennessee unveiled a new set of uniforms designed to create more of a traditional look for the Vols when they hit the field this season. “It brings back a little bit of history to UT baseball and I think it gives us a sharp look,” Serrano said. In addition to the team’s black batting practice top, Tennessee will also have separate orange and white tops with black piping and script Vols across the chest, as well as a traditional gray road uniform. The Big Orange will have their choice of plain white or pinstripe pants and will wear a black hat with an orange bill and an orange power T.

The group of first-year Vols is comprised of 13 true freshmen, four junior college players and one transfer from a four-year school. There are four outfielders, five infielders, one catcher and eight pitchers, including six right-handers and two southpaws.
