FIRST SERVE THE AUBURN MATCH

¢ Winners of 10 of its last 11 matches, including five in a row, the Lady Vols welcome Auburn for the first meeting of the season and the 43rd meeting in the all-time series on Friday night. ¢ Tennessee currently holds a 28-13-1 advantage in the all-time series and enters the match having won four in a row against the Tigers. ¢ UT has taken seven of the past eight matches and 20 of the last 22 against AU. Four of Tennessee’s past seven wins against the Tigers have been in straight sets. ¢ This match marks the 16th in Knoxville, where the Big Orange has lost only two matches and is 13-2 all-time. UT last loss at home came in four sets on Oct. 28, 2007. ¢ 20 of the 42 matches between the two sides have been decided in straight-sets, while there have only been five five-setters in the series. UT has won three of them. ¢ The program’s winningest coach, Rob Patrick will be coaching his 500th career match at UT and holds an impressive 20-4 record against Auburn, including a 10-1 mark on Rocky Top.

STATISTICAL LEADERS

THE LSU REMATCH ¢ Sunday afternoon’s Senior Day matchup marks the Lady Vols 54th meeting against the LSU Tigers. Prior to the match, UT seniors Jasmine Brown, Leslie Cikra, DeeDee Harrison and Kayla Jeter will be honored. ¢ The Lady Vols topped the Tigers in Baton Rouge in five sets earlier this season on Oct. 10. With that win, Tennessee narrowed LSU’s lead in the series to 33-20. It was the third straight win over LSU for the Big Orange. ¢ The two sides, which have played at least once every year since 1981, have played 11 five-setters and 14 four-setters in the all-time series. 28 of the 53 meetings have ended in straight sets. ¢ This match marks the 24th meeting in Knoxville, with Tennessee hanging onto a slim 12-11 lead at home. ¢ Over the first 20 years of the series, LSU had a winning streak of 14 matches and held UT to just nine wins in 30 meetings. Since Coach Patrick has arrived at Rocky Top in 1997, UT has beaten the Tigers 11 times. He now holds an even career record of 11-11 against LSU.
