GAME TWO SET-UP #4/4 Tennessee (1-0) returns to the court on Monday and plays host to Oral Roberts (0-1) in a 7 p.m. contest at Thompson-Boling Arena in Knoxville. The Lady Volunteers are coming off a dominating 97-52 victory over Penn in the season opener on Friday night, as the home team tipped off its 70th season of women’s hoops, as recognized by the NCAA. ORU, meanwhile, faced #8/9 Baylor in Waco, Texas, on Friday night and suffered a 101-60 setback at the hands of the Lady Bears. Monday’s game will not be televised, but the SEC Network+ broadcast will be streamed live with Courtney Lyle and former Lady Vol standout Brittany Jackson calling the action and Sami Kincaid reporting from the sideline. This will mark the third meeting between the Big Orange and the Golden Eagles, with Tennessee holding a 2-0 edge in the series. UT will have two more players ready for duty on Monday night, as senior guard Ariel Massengale and redshirt sophomore guard Andraya Carter return. Both missed the exhibition game and season opener due to a violation of team rules. Tennessee will attempt to open 2-0 for the second straight season and fifth time in the past six years. The contest vs. the Golden Eagles marks the second of four successive home games to open the 2014-15 campaign for Holly Warlick’s squad.
WHAT’S THE PROMOTION? The matchup with Oral Roberts will be a Big Orange Ticket game. If UT wins, fans will receive a ticket for the next home game. That promotion also was in effect for the opener vs. Penn, and UT won! If UT continues to win, fans will continue to receive each subsequent game ticket until a loss. All subsequent tickets will be sent by email for printing at home. Seats for subsequent games will be allocated in the 300 level, based on availability.
