NOTING THE VOLUNTEERS The Tennessee baseball team closed out the first half of its SEC schedule on a high note, claiming its first series victory after sweeping a doubleheader against No. 24 Alabama on Saturday. After the Volunteers dropped an 8-2 decision in the ESPNU Thursday Night SEC Game of the Week, they got an unexpected day off as severe weather, including numerous tornadoes in the Tuscaloosa area, cancelled Friday's contest. With two seven-inning games on tap for Saturday, UT junior Steven Gruver took it upon himself to bring Tennessee's nine-game skid to a sudden halt with a dominating performance on the mound in game one. The 6-1 lefty yielded just four hits, all singles, and one unearned run as the Big Orange got back on track with a 2-1 victory. Following Gruver's example, the Orange and White pitching staff was equally as effective in game two as it shut out the Crimson Tide, 1-0, to finish off the series victory. Making his first start of the season and just second of his career, sophomore Nick Blount was outstanding, twirling a career-high five scoreless frames. Freshman Nick Williams then came on to get the final four outs of the contest to record his second save. In all, Tennessee pitchers held Alabama to just one run on nine hits, all singles, in 14.0 total innings in Saturday's doubleheader. Leading the way offensively for the Big Orange in the series were seniors Tyler Horne and Matt Duffy. Horne finished the weekend with a .500 average, tallying five hits in his 10 at-bats. Duffy, meanwhile, knocked in two of the team's five runs and scored another, while hitting .444 (4-for-9), despite playing Saturday's doubleheader with an injured ankle. The series victory was just UT's third ever in Tuscaloosa (1994, 2000) and first in over a decade. The two triumphs improved the Vols' record to 21-15 overall and 4-11 in SEC play. Following Wednesday's contest against Western Carolina, the Big Orange will welcome Georgia to Lindsey Nelson Stadium for a three-game set starting at 6 p.m. on Friday, April 22. The second game will take place at 4 p.m. on Saturday, before the series comes to a close at 2 p.m. on Sunday.

SCOUTING THE CATAMOUNTS Western Carolina makes the trek to Rocky Top with a 14-19-1 record after dropping two of three at home to Georgia Southern last weekend. Junior infielder Ross Heffley has paced the Catamount offense this season, hitting at a terrific .414 clip with a team-high 40 RBIs. He is also tied with senior Matt Johns for the squad lead with four home runs. WCU will send sophomore Taylor Sandefur to the mound against the Vols. The 6-2 righthander is 1-2 with a 9.35 ERA in 11 appearances, including four starts this season. He has 21 strikeouts and 13 walks in 26.0 innings of work and opponents are hitting a healthy .352 off of him with 15 extra-base hits, including five home runs.

TODD RALEIGH
Turn up the VOLume
Fourth Season Western Carolina, 1991 Record at UT: 104-99 (.512) Career Record: 361-308 (.540) Tennessee head coach Todd Raleigh is in his fourth season at Rocky Top after guiding his alma mater, Western Carolina, for eight seasons. While at UT, Raleigh has had 12 players drafted, including two in 2008 and five more in both 2009 and 2010, and two more sign free-agent contracts following the completion of their eligibility. Nine of those players were drafted in the top-20 rounds, highlighted by 2009 first-round selection Kentrail Davis. In 19 seasons as a collegiate coach, Raleigh has now produced a total of 45 MLB draft picks and 63 professional players. Under Raleigh's guidance, the Vols have steadily moved up in the NCAA RPI in each of the last three seasons, improving from 91 in 2008 to 58 in 2009 and 45 in 2010. Over the past two seasons, Raleigh’s squads have belted out 168 round-trippers (87 in 2009, 81 in 2010), good for the second-most prolific two-year period in school history. During his tenure in Cullowhee, Raleigh’s clubs won two regular-season Southern Conference championships, one Southern Conference tournament title, turned in five top-three league finishes and made a pair of NCAA Regional appearances—reaching the Regional final both times. His 2007 WCU team posted a winning record against teams in the top 35 of the RPI and earned a rare mid-major at-large bid to the NCAA Championships. The Catamounts were touted by ESPN’s Kyle Peterson as featuring an “SEC-style offense.” In his 19 seasons as a collegiate assistant or head coach, Raleigh’s teams have finished third or better in their respective league 12 times (63 percent). Raleigh and his wife, Stephanie, have four children: Caleb John “Cal” (13), Emma Grace (11), Carley Elizabeth (4) and Todd Anthony “T” (1).
““There is not another person that puts higher expectations on myself and this program than I do,” UT Head Coach Todd Raleigh said. “There is no doubt in my mind that we have this program headed in the right direction, especially this season. Everyone is on the same page in terms of coming to work every single day with the mindset of getting better. In the long run, that is really the only thing we can control.” — Head Coach Todd Raleigh
“Since I got here in the fall of 2007, we have improved every aspect of this program, from the facilities, to the Academic Progress Rate to the NCAA RPI. The last piece of the puzzle is putting it all together on the field and getting to the postseason. Has it happened as fast as we would have liked? Most certainly not. I understand the expectations of our fans, and this may sound odd, but I like the fact that some of them aren’t too happy right now. I love that they expect greatness, just like I do. Have there been some extenuating circumstances that have slowed us down a little? Sure, but our goal from day one has been to build a program, not a team. I have no doubt that that stuff is in the past and we are moving forward. We are going to be a national power, no question about that. I am confident that we are headed TODD RALEIGH NOTES in the right direction and cannot wait to get this u The Vols have steadily moved up in the NCAA RPI in each of the last three seasons, improving from 91 in season started.” — Head Coach Todd Raleigh 2008 to 58 in 2009 and 45 in 2010. “Ash brings a lot of energy and great ideas to our staff, especially with his insight on base running. It is going to be a critical year in that area because of all of the bat changes and he u The Vols have been one of the best defensive teams in the nation the past two seasons, posting fielding has done a tremendous job revamping our percentages of .972 and .974 in 2009 and 2010, respectively. efforts on that part of the game.

(.323). u Over the past two seasons, Raleigh’s squads have belted out 168 round-trippers (87 in 2009, 81 in 2010), good for the second-most prolific two-year period in school history.
u Under Raleigh’s guidance in 2009, Cody Hawn became just the 10th player in UT history to claim the team Triple Crown with a .364 batting average, 22 home runs and 81 RBIs.

“We have been working on a lot of small ball stuff. We don't have as many power guys, so we have to get back to the basics. A lot of bunting, base running and just small ball stuff. It's not a traditional team like we have had in the past but we are getting use to it. Top to bottom, it's just a group of scrappy guys. We are going to score runs in many different ways and put pressure on the other team to make mistakes." — Senior First Baseman Josh Liles “Our attitude is one of high intensity. That is one thing that we have focused on in our practices and scrimmages this fall and leading up to the spring. The chemisty on this team is definitely improved over what it has been in the last couple of years. We have a close-knit group and a group of seniors to lead us. We've set the bar high from the very beginning. The SEC Tournament is a bare minimum." — Junior Catcher/Closer Matt Ramsey

NOTEWORTHY TEAM QUICK HITS uUT currently sports the third-best fielding percentage in the SEC at .974 with just 35 errors in the first 36 games of the season.
uUT has 69 two-out RBIs on the year, while holding its opponents to just 56.
uTennessee hosted the first ESPNU Thursday Night SEC Game of the Week when South Carolina made the trek to Rocky Top on April 7. The Vols will also played in the second such game at Alabama on April 14.
uUT's five-game run without an error from 3/254/1 was its longest since posting five straight errorless contests from 5/9-5/16 in the 1993 campaign.
uTennessee currently ranks 72nd in the most recent version of the NCAA RPI with wins over No. 32 Ole Miss and No. 41 Alabama. uAfter starting the season on a roll at the plate, the Vols have hit a rough patch offensively lately. The team batting average topped out at .342 15 games into the year, but has since dropped to .290 as the Big Orange is hitting just .226 in SEC games. uThe Vols have hit six home runs on the first pitch of an at-bat this season. uSeven different UT pitchers have combined to record a total of 11 saves this year, after the entire team had just four in 2010. uTennessee pinch hitters are 9-for-28 (.321).
DUFFY HITS FOR THE CYCLE
uTennessee has struck out just 190 times this season, the fewest of any team in the SEC.
uThe Big Orange ranks 22nd in the nation with 68 stolen bases in 88 attempts. uThe contest with Austin Peay on March 16 marked the Orange and White's first road game of the year, as Tennessee opened the 2011 season with 16 straight home games. That is the longest homestand for the Vols since they played 22 consecutive games in Knoxville to open the 1963 campaign. INDIVIDUAL QUICK HITS uDuring his eight seasons as the head coach at Western Carolina, Todd Raleigh amassed an overall record of 257-209 (.552). uSenior Josh Liles needs 16 more hits to become the 15th member of Tennessee's 200-hits club. uWith 16 stolen bases, Andrew Toles has the third-most thefts of any freshman in the nation this year. uJunior Zach Osborne ranks second in school history with 19 career sacrifice bunts. He needs just three more to tie Bryce Christensen (94-95) for the all-time lead. uDuring SEC play, Osborne has been on fire at the plate, hitting a team-best .345 (19-for-55) with at least two hits in eight contests. Over his last six league games, he is hitting .455 (10-for-22).
Senior third baseman Matt Duffy posted one of the most memorable offensive performances in Tennessee history against New Orleans on March 9, 2011, becoming just the second UT player to ever hit for the cycle. Duffy finished the contest 4-for-6 at the plate with a career-high three runs scored and four RBIs. He had a double in the first inning, a triple in the fourth, his second home run of the season in the fifth and a single in the eighth.

GRUVER NAMED TO CB360.COM PRIMETIME HONOR ROLL After firing a four-hit, seven-inning complete game in the first contest of a doubleheader at No. 24 Alabama on April 16, junior southpaw Steven Gruver was named to the CollegeBaseball360.com Primetime Weekly Honor Roll for the second time in his career. He also earned the honor once last season after logging seven shutout innings at Oregon State.. Against the Tide, the Canfield, Ohio, native struck out five and scattered four hits, all singles, to help the Vols snap a nine-game skid. SIX VOLS ON MLB OPENING DAY ROSTERS A total of six former Vols were on the Opening Day roster of an MLB team, not including members of two coaching staffs. Luke Hochevar became just the third UT player to ever earn the honor of being his team's Opening Day starting pitcher, doing so for this year's Kansas City Royals. The only other two Vols to do so are Tommy Bridges with the Detroit Tigers (1933, 1939 and 1943) and Tommy Smithson with the Texas Rangers (1983). In his first full season in the bigs is Toronto Blue

NORFORK (FROM RIPLEY) One of the premier hitters in the nation this season, UT senior second baseman Khayyan Norfork has hit safely in 28 of the first 36 games of the 2011 campaign and leads the team with 17 multiple-hit contests. The Ripley, Tenn., native is also tied for seventh in the nation and leads the SEC with 22 stolen bases. NORFORK IN THE RANKINGS Stat Batting Avg.

In his first three starts alone, he led the Vols to a pair of shutouts before tossing a complete game in his fourth start. So far this year, he has struck out 58 and walked just 16 in 62.1 innings of work, averaging nearly seven innings per start. He went six scoreless against Milwaukee on Opening Day before shutting down Canisius for seven frames on Feb. 26 when he posted a career-high 10 strikeouts. He has now pitched 6.0+ innings 11 times in his career, including eight of his nine starts this season. GRUVER'S 2011 STATS ERA 2.60

DUFFY LOOKS TO GET BACK ON TRACK A transfer from Vermont, UT senior third baseman Matt Duffy has been one of the team's most consistent players this season, starting all 36 games and hitting .344 in the middle of the lineup. After going hitless in 17 consecutive at-bats, he broke out of his slump by going 4-for-9 (.444) in the threegame sereis at Alabama.. The Milton, Mass., native has the sevenh-most RBIs of any player in the SEC with 31, holds the team lead with five home runs and ranks fifth in the league in on-base percentage (.478) and ninth in slugging percentage (.557). He also ranks fifth in the SEC with 10 HBPs. After a slow start in 2010, his first at Tennessee, Duffy picked up the pace at the end of the year, leading the Big Orange with a .348 batting average in SEC play. CATAPANO HAS SIGHTS SET ON MARINES Unless the option to continue his baseball career presents itself, Catapano plans on entering Officer Candidates School, a 10-week program in Quantico, Va., designed to train, evaluate and screen candidates for potential as Marine Corp officers. Graduates of OCC are commissioned immediately upon graduation as Second Lieutenants and sent to The Basic School at Quantico for six months of further training. RAMSEY ON JOHNNY BENCH AWARD WATCH LIST In his first season as the starting catcher at Tennessee, junior Matt Ramsey has solidified himself as one of the top catch-and-throw backstops in the country, gunning down 13 of 29 potential baserunners (44.8%). He was recently added to the Johnny Bench Award Watch List, given to the top catcher in the country. BENNETT OFF TO STRONG START After hitting 27 home runs as a senior at Farragut High School, UT freshman catcher/DH Ethan Bennett has wasted little time adjusting to
the college game, as he is second on the team behind only Matt Duffy with four home runs and is hitting .278 (20-for-72) with 19 RBIs through his first 24 games at Rocky Top. After missing the first two weekends with a hamstring injury, Bennett exploded onto the scene with four home runs in three games. During that stretch, he hitting .583 (7-for-12) with 16 RBIs and six runs scored. Bennett's talent isn't limited to the baseball diamond though, as he is also an accomplished musician with the ability to play the guitar, bass guitar, banjo, mandolin and piano. VOLS OFF AND RUNNING Prior to the season, there was quite a bit of talk about Tennessee implementing a new, more aggressive baserunning philosophy. The Vols have walked-the-walk so far in 2011 as they have recorded 68 stolen bases in the first 36 games of the season to rank second in the SEC. By comparison, it took UT 48 games to reach that mark in 2010 and never got there in 2009 when it had just 39 thefts in 55 games. The new baserunning program was on full display on Feb. 27 against Canisius, when the Big Orange was a near-perfect 9-for-10 on the basepaths, including a pair of double steals and three thefts of third. The last time a Tennessee team had nine stolen bases in one game came against Morehead State on Feb. 8, 2003. UT had been successful in 20 straight stolen base attempts and 29 of 30 tries before having a runner thrown out on March 9. With 22 thefts, senior Khayyan Norfork is first in the league and just shy of the totals for the entire South Carolina (24) and Auburn (23) teams. Not far behind Norfork is speedy freshman Andrew Toles who has the fourth-most stolen bases in the SEC with 16 in 21 attempts. That already bests current Texas Ranger centerfielder Julio Borbon for the fifth-most by a Tennessee freshman and ranks third among all freshmen in the NCAA, behind only

While in Tuscaloosa for a three-game series against Alabama, the Volunteers got an unexpected day off due to some serious weather, including multiple tornadoes. The severity of the weather really struck home when the team turned on the TV and found Weather Channel meteorologist and bad weather aficionado Jim Cantore (pictured above) broadcasting from across the street beyond the right field wall at Sewell-Thomas Stadium. 2011 Tennessee Volunteer Baseball Game Notes

CIRCLE OF LIFE
TYLER HORNE | Senior Third Baseman In an effort to get a few laughs out of his teammates and fans this season, senior Tyler Horne selected Elton John's "Circle of Life" from the animated motion picture "The Lion King," as his walk-up song. It has achieved its stated goal as both players and fans alike have embraced it. When Horne strides to the dish, it is not uncommon to see people imitating the scene from the movie where Rafiki presents Simba for all of the kingdom to see. Iona's Joe Torres (20) and Michigan's Michael O'Neill (17) SAVING THE DAY One of the most eye-popping stats for Tennessee this season has come from the back of the team's bullpen. After recording four saves over the course of the entire 2010 campaign, the Vols already have 11 saves in 36 games this season, with seven different pitchers doing the honors no less. Matt Ramsey has three and Zack Godley and Nick Williams have two, while Nick Blount, T.J. Thornton, Levi Dean and Drew Steckenrider each have one. With nine career saves, Ramsey is currently tied with Rich DeLucia (83-86) for the fifth most in Tennessee history. VOLS MAKING THE GRADE Academics have been a top priority for the Vols since Todd Raleigh arrived in 2008. Proving that point, Tennessee increased its multi-year APR to 936, up from 850 in 2005. That increase represented the largest single-year jump by any team at UT as it had an APR of 898 last year. For the 2009-10 school year alone, the Vol baseball team posted a spectacular 982 APR. VOLS NOT LISTED IN NOTICE OF ALLEGATIONS The University of Tennessee received a Notice of Allegations from the NCAA on Feb. 23. While an examination into potential rules violations by the University of Tennessee baseball program was referenced in the initial Letter of Inquiry from the NCAA, there were no alleged violations by the baseball program listed in this Notice. RALEIGH REACHES CENTURY MARK AT UT With a 7-3 road victory over Lipscomb on March 23, Tennessee head coach Todd Raleigh collected his 100th win at Rocky Top. In his fourth season with the Vols, the UT skipper is now 104-99 (.512). Raleigh becomes just the fourth Tennessee coach to reach that mark in Knoxville, joining John Whited (145 wins/1982-87), Bill Wright (408/196381) and Rod Delmonico (699/1990-2007).

SHUTOUT STREAK OVER Prior to its 4-0 victory over Milwaukee on Opening Day (2/18), Tennessee's last shutout came on March 10, 2007, a span of three years, 11 months and eight days (209 games), when James Adkins and Ryne Simpson combined to blank Siena, 5-0, in Knoxville. It didn't take the Vols to pick up another shutout as they accomplished the feat once again just a week later against Canisius (2/25), also by a 4-0 score. UT picked up another on March 9 with a 14-0 blanking over New Orleans. Longest Time Between Shutouts 1. 209 games 3/10/07 (Siena) - 2/18/11 (Mlwaukee) Three years, 11 months, 8 days (1441 days) 2. 84 games 4/30/88 (Auburn) - 3/22/90 (Tusculum) 1 year, 10 months, 22 days (691 days) 3. 74 games 4/17/29 (Hiwassee) - 5/2/47 (Lincoln Memorial) 18 years, 15 days (6589 days) 4. 69 games 5/17/47 (Tenn.

NORFORK EXCELS ON OPENING DAY...AGAIN For the second straight season, Vol second baseman Khayyan Norfork opened the year with a bang. After going 4-for-5 with two runs scored, an RBI and a stolen base in his UT debut against Xavier in 2010, Norfork kicked off the 2011 campaign with a 2-for4 effort, knocking in three of the team's four runs against Milwaukee in its 4-0 victory. In his two Opening Day starts combined, Norfork is 6-for-9 (.667) with four RBIs, two stolen bases and two runs scored. OPENING DAY SOUTHPAWS With Steven Gruver earning the Opening Day start for the Vols this season, it marked the third consecutive campaign that the Vols have trotted a
southpaw out to the mound to open the year.

rocky top bloodlines Freshman centerfielder Andrew Toles was born to bleed orange. A fourth-round selection by the Florida Marlins last June, Toles decded to put his professional career on hold in order to attend the same school where his father and uncle both excelled on the gridiron. His father, Alvin, was a hard-hitting linebacker at Tennessee (1981-84) before being drafted in the first round of the 1985 NFL draft by the New Orleans Saints. His uncle, Johnnie Jones, also is the fourth-leading rusher in Tennessee history (82-84) and spent time with the Seattle Seahawks in the NFL and the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the CFL. His mother, Vicky, meanwhile, played basketball at the University of New Orleans, and his sister, Morgan plays basketball at Auburn. new faces in the crowd The Volunteers return 17 players, including seven starters, from last year's squad which finished with a record of 30-26. Joining them is a talented group of 14 newcomers, headlined by freshman Andrew Toles, a fourth-round pick by the Florida Marlins in the 2010 MLB First-Year Player Draft, and last year's Tennessee Gatorade Player of the Year, Ethan Bennett from Farragut High School. All 14 newcomers have already made their way into a game this season. new faces on the coaching staff In addition to the 14 new players, Tennessee also welcomes a pair of new coaches in assistant coach Ash Lawson and volunteer assistant Barrett Shaft. A former head coach at Tennessee Wesleyan, Lawson comes to Rocky Top from the San Diego Padres for whom he was a regional crosschecker. He was named the Padres' Scout of the Year in 2006. Shaft is in his first season as a volunteer assistant after serving as a manager for the team last year. He is a 2008 graduate of Western Carolina.
2011 Tennessee Volunteer Baseball Game Notes
homegrown talent plentiful on tennessee roster Tennessee’s roster includes 12 players from the state of Tennessee (38.7 percent of the roster). Five Vols are from Knox County and one is from Sevier County (Seymour), while two others hail from West Tennessee and four are from Middle Tennessee. Four of the local players hail from Farragut High School, including senior Rob Catapano, junior Matt Ramsey and freshmen Ethan Bennett and Nick Williams. Bennett was named a 2010 Louisville Slugger High School All American, Tennessee Gatorade Player of the Year and TBCA Class AAA Player of the Year after setting a state single-season record with 27 home runs. He also hit .420 with 73 RBIs and scored 57 runs and set the national record for home runs in consecutive games, belting 16 during a 10-game stretch in April. Williams also played a big role in leading Farragut to three straight state titles with Bennett, going 19-0 with 137 strikeouts and an 0.85 ERA during his three seasons on the varsity squad.
