» With a career-high 19 points on Wednesday at Chattanooga, junior forward Jasmine Jones led Tennessee in scoring for the first time in her career.

17.8

RECENT GAME RECAPS  A furious second-half comeback fell just short, as #4/5 Tennessee was beaten at Chattanooga for the second consecutive time, 67-63, on Wednesday night.  The Lady Vols (4-1), rallied from a 16-point halftime deficit (it was 17 with 1:00 to go in the first half) to tie the game on four occasions late in the second half, but UTC (42) made four free throws in the final minute to secure the win.  Junior Jasmine Jones, who missed three games due to a slight concussion, returned to action and led the dramatic comeback.  Jones scored 16 of her career-high 19 points in the second half and grabbed eight rebounds, the most of any player in the game.  Senior Ariel Massengale was the only other scorer in double figures for the Lady Vols with 11 points. The Lady Vols were limited to just 37.7 percent from the floor.  Chattanooga’s Keiana Gilbert led all scorers with a career-high 27 points. Destiny Bramblett added 12.  Alicia Payne put UTC ahead, 64-63, with 52.3 seconds remaining, as she made the second of two free-throw attempts. Jasmine Joyner also made the second of a pair of foul shots with 14.8 remaining to put the Mocs up 65-63.  Jones had a chance to tie the game for Tennessee, but her shot wouldn’t drop with five seconds left. Ka’Vonne Towns made both of her free throws with 2.7 seconds left to seal the victory for Chattanooga.  The game was tied at 57, 59, 61 and 63, but the Lady Vols could never get over the hump after erasing the huge deficit.  For Texas, sophomore center Kelsey Lang is beginning to flourish in a bigger role. She scored a career-best 20 points to help

» Through five games, junior center Nia Moore continues to lead Tennessee in scoring at 17.8 points per contest after averaging 2.3 a year ago.

No. 6/9 Texas (4-0) beat Texas-Pan American (3-3), 72-45, on Wednesday night at the Erwin Center.  Lang shot 10-of-13 from the field, renewing her previous career-high scoring mark set less than a week ago, with 14 points as the Longhorns upset No. 6/1 Stanford on Nov. 20.  Last season, Lang averaged 5.4 points in 14 minutes per game. Lang is now averaging a team-best 14.5 points in 31 minutes.  Brady Sanders and Tasia Foman scored 10 points apiece for Texas. Another guard, Brianna Taylor, led the Longhorns in rebounds with a career-best 11 in 11 minutes.

NEXT GAME  After facing Texas, the Lady Vols return home to host St. Francis (Pa.) in a 7 p.m. contest on Dec. 3. The game will not be televised, but SEC Network+ will provide a video broadcast.  That meeting with St. Francis is a brief Knoxville pit stop before Tennessee hits the road to Lipscomb (Dec. 7) and Rutgers (Dec. 14).  Texas is in the midst of a six-game home stand, with New Mexico coming to town on Dec. 3 for a 7 p.m. CT tussle.

THE SERIES WITH TEXAS  Tennessee leads the series with the Longhorns, 23-12, and carries a five-game winning streak into Sunday’s 36th all-time match-up between these schools in women’s hoops.  The Burnt Orange has come out victorious in three of the last six meetings in Austin, but the Big Orange has won the last two.  This year’s battle will be only the fourth contested during the month of November. Tennessee has a 2-1 mark in those games, with the most recent one a 92-67 triumph

» Tennessee is off to a nice start on its shooting from the free throw line, connecting on 78.4 percent of its tries through five games.

in Knoxville by the #1/1 Lady Vols. vs. #21/22 Texas on Nov. 11, 2007.  This will mark the 26th time these schools have met when both teams are ranked, and UT is 16-9 in the previous match-ups.  This is the eighth meeting between the Lady Vols and Longhorns when both teams were ranked in the top 10, with Texas owning a 5-2 mark vs. Tennessee.  Head coaches Holly Warlick and Karen Aston have some common ground, with both having served as assistants (HW: 1985-05/ KA: 1998-2000) and associate head coaches (HW: 2005-12/KA: 2000-06) for two of women’s basketball’s legendary coaches.  Warlick, of course, follows in the footsteps of Pat Summitt (NCAA best 1,098-208 record in 38 season) at Tennessee, and Aston, with some stops at other schools from 2006-12, holds a job her mentor Jody Conradt (900-307) held for 31 years.  When the statue and plaza bearing Summitt’s name was dedicated on Nov. 22, 2013, Conradt was in Knoxville for the festivities. Likewise, Summitt was in Austin when Conradt’s statue was dedicated on Oct. 5, 2012.  The last Tennessee loss in the series came on 12/14/08, when #6/5 Texas triumphed over the #7/10 Lady Vols in Austin, 73-59.  The last Lady Vol loss to Texas in Knoxville came on Dec. 28, 2003, when the #5/5 Longhorns toppled #2/2 Tennessee, 70-60.

LAST TIME WE SAW TEXAS  The third-ranked Tennessee Lady Vols held off Texas’ mid-game rallies to pull away for a 75-61 victory at Thompson-Boling Arena on Dec. 8, 2013, the last time these programs got together.  Texas cut Tennessee’s lead to one point three times, but the Lady Vols got timely scoring from their veteran players to improve to 8-0 on the season.  Sophomore Isabelle Harrison led the Lady Vols by matching her career high with 18 points to go along with eight rebounds. Junior Ariel Massengale added 15 points, 11 of them coming in the second half. She also dished out a team-leading seven assists.  Texas (6-3) was led offensively by Chassidy Fussell and Nneka Enemkpali, who both finished with 12 points.  Tennessee opened the second half with a 5-0 run, but Texas eventually closed the lead to 35-34. Faced with another Longhorn rally, the Lady Vols responded with a 9-0 run.  Tennessee led by as many as 15 points in the second half, going up 65-50 on a layup by senior Meighan Simmons with 4:34 left. Simmons finished with 13 points, scoring 11 in the second half.  Coming off the bench for just the second time this season, Burdick helped Tennessee on both ends of the court. She finished with 10 points and eight rebounds.  With the victory, the Lady Vols opened the season with an 8-0 record for the first time since the 2009-10 season.

LAST TIME IN AUSTIN  Meighan Simmons scored a team-high 18 points to lead six Lady Vols in double figures as the No. 13/12 Tennessee women’s basketball team rolled past No. 18/20 Texas, 94-75, on Dec. 16, 2012, the last time the Big Orange paid a visit to the Frank Erwin Center.  Tennessee (7-1) enjoyed a balanced offensive attack in the win with strong shooting from the field (46.8 percent), beyond the arc (8-of-15) and the free-throw line (14-of18).

 Bashaara Graves posted a double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds. Ariel Massengale had 15 points and a game-high seven assists. Taber Spani scored 15 points, Cierra Burdick had 14 points and Jasmine Jones had a big second half to finish with 10 points off the bench.  Chassidy Fussell led Texas (6-2) with a 31-point effort that included a 10-of-10 showing from the charity stripe. Nneka Enemkpali added 15 points and eight boards for the Longhorns.  Tennessee led 45-27 at the break and the teams traded baskets over the first two minutes of the second half. Burdick hit a jumper at the 17:35 mark push Tennessee’s lead to 20 points at 53-33.  Due to a Tennessee technical foul prior tipoff, Fussell made two free throws to give the Longhorns a 2-0 advantage before the clock even started. That did not phase Tennessee, as the Lady Vols responded with a 15-4 run over the next six minutes. Graves and Spani had six points each over that stretch and were the offensive catalysts for Tennessee in the first half.  Isabelle Harrison suffered an ankle injury the last time Tennessee visited Austin and was unable to play vs. Baylor two days later.

ORANGE SLICES  Against, Chattanooga, UT was eyeing its largest comeback since rallying from a 3313 deficit at Rutgers in 2009, but the Lady Vols weren’t quite able to pull it off.  Last season, the Lady Vols came back from 15-point deficits on two occasions to win at Alabama and vs. LSU in the SEC Tournament.  Tennessee allowed the highest field goal percentage to Chattanooga (.533) than it had since yielding a .557 rate to Vanderbilt on Feb. 9, 2012.  Tennessee had produced 20 or more assists in each of its first four games until dishing out only nine against Chattanooga.  The UT women hadn’t had that many consecutive 20-assist games since 1987-88, when that year’s squad had sprees of five (12/13 to 1/3) and six games (1/11 to 1/27) with 20+.  The Lady Vols’ school-record threegame run of forcing their opponents to 30+ turnovers per game came to an end with UTC committing only 17 miscues.  Tennessee saw a 13-game winning streak vs. unranked opponents come to an end vs. Chattanooga.  Nia Moore and Bashaara Graves saw their four-game streaks of double-figure scoring games come to an end with only six and eight points, respectively, vs. Chattanooga.  After losing the battle of the boards vs. Tennessee State, the Lady Vols overcame a 19-12 deficit at the half to out-rebound the Lady Mocs, 35-30.

WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?  Tennessee faces a tough assignment in its bounce-back game, traveling to Texas to take on the #6/9 Longhorns.  The Big Orange faced a similar test in Holly Warlick’s first season as head coach when losing to Chattanooga. The Lady Vols then had to continue their road trip at Georgia Tech, but pulled it together and fought for a 71-54 win over the #22 Yellow Jackets as they played the inaugural game in McCamish Pavilion.  The Lady Vols have lost back-to-back games in a season only once during the Holly Warlick era, including setbacks to #3/3 Baylor on the road (76-53) on Dec. 18, 2012, and vs. #1/1 Stanford (73-60) in Knoxville on Dec. 22, 2012.  Consecutive losses also occurred under Pat Summitt during the 2011-12 season (once), 2008-09 (twice), 2005-06 (once), 1996-97 (three times), 1995-96 (once), 198990 (once), 1985-86 (once-three games in a row), 1984-85 (three times-one of them was three in a row), 1983-84 (twice), 1982-83 (once), 1981-82 (twice), 1980-81 (once), 197980 (once), 1978-79 (twice), 1977-78 (once) and 1976-77 (four times).

BACK WITH A VENGEANCE  Jasmine Jones had played only seven minutes this season before her career-best performance vs. Chattanooga.  After suffering a mild concussion in the first half of the opener vs. Penn, Jones returned to action off the bench vs. the Lady Mocs and propelled a furious second-half UT comeback.  The 6-2 junior forward connected for a career-high 19 points, with 16 of them coming in the second half as UT erased a 16-point halftime deficit before falling in the end, 6763.  Jones also had seven rebounds in 28 minutes.

DAY TO DAY WITH IZZY  Isabelle Harrison suffered a right leg injury with 3:26 remaining in the Penn game and had to be helped from the floor. She was diagnosed with a sprained medial collateral


ligament in her right knee and has missed the last four games. She is listed as day to day heading into the Texas game.

ESPN “NEED TO KNOW” PLAYER  Isabelle Harrison had a breakout junior season, earning All-SEC First Team and SEC Tournament MVP accolades as well as thirdteam Full Court All-America kudos and honorable mention All-America from AP and the WBCA.  For those and a few other reason, ESPN tabbed Harrison as one of its “Need To Know” players this season.  Harrison ranked first in the SEC in field goal percentage (57.7%) and double-doubles (18), second in rebound average (9.3) and 18th in scoring average (13.6).  She set a Tennessee junior record with those 18 double-doubles, passing the previous record holder, Chamique Holdsclaw, who had 16 in 1997-98.  Only Candace Parker had more doubledoubles in a season for UT, tallying 21 as a sophomore in 2006-07.  From Dec. 14, 2014 to Jan. 9, 2014, Harrison posted seven-straight games with double-doubles, setting a Lady Vol program record for consecutive double-doubles.  She scored in double figures in 31 of 35 contests, including 20 games in a row from Nov. 29-Feb. 20.  She racked up 20 contests with 10 or more rebounds.  Earned SEC Tournament MVP honors after leading UT to its 17th postseason league title, averaging 19.0 points and 10.0 rebounds per game in the tourney.

GRAVES, HARRISON ON WATCH LISTS  Senior center Isabelle Harrison and junior forward Bashaara Graves have been named to some preseason watch lists for national awards.  On Nov. 24, Harrison and Graves were named to the John R. Wooden Award Preseason Top 30.  On Nov. 25, both players were named to the “Wade Watch” list for the Wade Trophy.  Graves was on both lists last season, while Harrison is a first-time member of those groups.

STILL HIGH-SCORING LADY VOLS  The Lady Vols enter the Texas game averaging 85.8 points per game to only 50.4 for their opponents.  The scoring margin stood at 91.5 to 46.2 prior to the game vs. Chattanooga, when the Lady Mocs slowed it down to their tempo in a 67-63 upset win over Tennessee.  Still, Tennessee opened 2014-15 with consecutive 90+ scoring efforts, tallying 97 vs. Penn and 91 vs. Oral Roberts before making it to 81 vs. Winthrop and then bouncing back to 97 vs. Tennessee State.  It marked the first time during the Holly Warlick era that her club scored 90 or more points on multiple occasions in the first four games. The only previous 90+ game came against Rice (105) on Nov. 15, 2012.  The 2001-02 Lady Vols scored 97, 106, 90 and 88 in wins vs. Chattanooga, USC, Louisiana Tech and George Washington that season to post the No. 1 scoring total for the first four games (381).  Tennessee scored 366 points in its first four games of 2014-15.

FIRST FOUR GAMES WERE AT HOME  After hosting one exhibition game and four regular season games at home, Tennesee finally stepped away from ThompsonBoling Arena to play an opponent, and the result was a loss at Chattanooga. A tough game vs. #6/9 Texas awaits.  This marks the first time since 2003-04 and only the second occasion since 197475 that the Lady Vols played their first four games at home to open a season.  The 2003-04 season was the only other time the Lady Vols played their first four at home and won all of them.  UT started the regular season with wins vs. Penn (W, 97-52 on Nov. 14), Oral Roberts (W, 91-39 on Nov. 17), Winthrop (W, 81-48 on Nov. 21) and Tennessee State (W, 97-46 on Nov. 24).

LOOK WHO’S MOVING UP THE CHARTS  Tennessee will have several players capable of joining the 38-member Lady Vol 1,000-point club this season.  The group includes Bashaara Graves (852), Isabelle Harrison (827), Ariel Massengale (819) and Cierra Burdick (712).  Three Lady Vols have 500 or more rebounds, including Harrison (607), Graves (560) and Burdick (550), and it takes 811 or more to break into the all-time leaders club.  On the UT career double-doubles list, Harrison ranks eighth with 25, while Bashaara Graves (16) and Cierra Burdick (12) stand No. 19 and No. 25, respectively.  Massengale currently ranks ninth on UT’s career assists list with 436 (439 is 8th) and had the No. 2 career assist average at 4.9 entering her senior season.  Massengale’s 5.8 apg. average in 2013-14 was fourth-best in school history.  Massengale is attempting to become only the second Lady Vol to lead the team in assists four straight seasons. Dawn Marsh (1984-88) is the only one to do it.  On the career free throw percentage list, Massengale entered the year ranked No. 10 at .796.  Harrison is ranked 10th in career blocks with 107 and is No. 7 on the career block average chart at 1.15.  Graves began the year ranked No. 10 on UT’s career rebound average list at 7.4 per contest.

FOUR SEEK 1,000-POINT MILESTONE  Bashaara Graves (852), Isabelle Harrison (827), Ariel Massengale (819) and Cierra Burdick (712) are trying to reach the 1,000-point plateau in their college careeers.  Tennessee has had 38 players score 1,000 points, but it has never before had four do so in the same season.  There have been nine occasions where Tennessee has had three players with 1,000 points on the same team.  The last trio to do that came in 201011, when Angie Bjorklund (1,469), Shekinna Stricklen (1,343) and Glory Johnson (1,132) accomplished that feat.

HERE COMES THE RUN AGAIN  Tennessee’s ball pressure, up-tempo pace and three-point shooting abilities sparked runs that broke open their first four games.  Chattanooga avoided any lengthy runs, but the Lady Vols used a 6-0 run to tie the game after being down by 17 in the first half.

2014-15 LADY VOL BASKETBALL » UTSPORTS.COM » @LADYVOL_HOOPS


 The Lady Vols have made 11 runs of 10-0 or longer this season, including unchecked sprees of 22, 19 and 17 points.  Tennessee trailed by eight points (15:44/1st) to Tennessee State before reeling off 22-straight points to flip the script.  All told, the Lady Vols had runs of 22-0, 19-0, 11-0 and 10-0 vs. the Lady Tigers.  UT had a 14-0 blast, a pair 10-0 sprees and other smaller offensives in the opener vs. Penn.  The 14-0 run helped the Lady Vols overcome a three-point deficit to Penn with 11 minutes to go in the first half and race to a 97-52 win.  UT began the ORU game with a 10-0 run and added two more 10-0 blitzkriegs and another 9-0 spree.  Leading 10-7 vs. Winthrop, Tennessee’s 17-0 run broke the game open, thanks to Ariel Massengale’s trio of three-pointers during that outburst.

A VERY PRODUCTIVE BENCH  Tennessee is moving toward having its full complement of players, but it hasn’t done badly with the number of reserves available being limited.  The Lady Vols are outscoring opposing benches, 174 to 79 (34.8-15.8).  Tennessee had a five-player bench for the first time this season vs. Chattanooga (four played/Kortney Dunbar did not) and scored 35 points. Jasmine Jones led the way with a career-best 19 in reserve, and Ariel Massengale added 11.  UT had a four-player bench vs. Tennessee State and Winthrop and three reserves vs. ORU and Penn.  Isabelle Harrison is day-to-day and could return soon, while Jannah Tucker’s timetable has not been announced.  Despite having only three players available off the bench, Tennessee outscored Penn’s nine reserves, 37-13, in the opener.  Kortney Dunbar (15), Isabelle Harrison (12) and Jaime Nared (10) combined for that total, with Harrison adding 10 rebounds for her 25th career double-double.

 Tennessee was without Cierra Burdick, Andraya Carter, Ariel Massengale and Jannah Tucker vs. Penn and Carson-Newman (exhibition) due to violations of team rules that head coach Holly Warlick announced on Weds., Nov. 5 and clarified postgame of the exhibition vs. C-N on Nov. 9.  Carter and Massengale returned to action vs. Oral Roberts on Nov. 17, but Isabelle Harrison and Jasmine Jones missed the contest due to injuries, while Cierra Burdick sat out her final game of suspension.  That meant Warlick again had a bench of only three players vs. ORU, but the reserves outscored the Golden Eagles’ bench, 39-13.  Ariel Massengale had 21 points, while Kortney Dunbar added 10 and Andraya Carter eight for UT’s subs vs. ORU.  With Cierra Burdick’s return vs. Winthrop, Tennessee had four reserves and outscored the Eagles, 32-12, to up their season total to 108-38.  The Lady Vols had a 33-17 bench points edge vs. Tennessee State.  Jannah Tucker, who is working her way back from an offseason procedure on her left knee, will miss two contests at the time she has been cleared medically to return to competition in games.  Diamond DeShields and Mercedes Russell are redshirting, leaving Holly Warlick with a roster of 12 when all are healthy.

UT FORCING 27.0 TOS PER GAME  Tennessee has forced 135 turnovers in its first five games, causing opponents to average 27.0 miscues per contest.  The Lady Vols posted a program first on Nov. 24 vs. Tennessee State, causing their third consecutive opponent to commit 30 or more turnovers.  The TSU Lady Tigers finished with 38 turnovers, following a 34-turnover effort by Winthrop and 30 miscues by Oral Roberts.  With the back-to-back 30s from ORU and Winthrop, it marked the first time since 2006-07 Tennessee had forced 30 or more turnovers in back-to-back games.

 UT last accomplished consecutive games of forcing 30 turnovers vs. Alabama (30) on Jan. 28, 2007, and South Carolina (34) on Feb. 1, 2007.  A year ago at this time, Lady Vols’ opponents had committed only 88 total TOs for an average of 17.6 per contest.  Chattanooga committed only 17 turnovers in its upset win over Tennessee.

ACTIVE HANDS ON DEFENSE  Tennessee is averaging 15.8 steals per game through the first five contests, thanks to totals of 21 swipes against Oral Roberts, 19 vs. Winthrop and 21 vs. Tennessee State.  Only four other times since 2000 had the Lady Vols registered 21 or more steals.  UT had 23 vs. George Washington (11/27/01).  The Lady Vols also had 22 vs. La. Tech (11/28/06) and Alcorn State (11/25/12), and 21 vs. Chattanooga (11/11/07).  Andraya Carter is averaging 4.0 steals (16 total) per contest after posting highs of six vs. ORU and Winthrop.  Jordan Reynolds has 14 steals for a 2.8 average, including seven vs. ORU.  Tennessee has a 79 to 28 advantage on steals against its opponents, leading to a 158-32 margin on points off turnovers.  Many of those points are of the fast break variety, with Tennessee dominating its first five opponents, 75-18, in that category.  At this time a year ago, the Lady Vols had only 44 steals through the first five games.

TAKING CARE OF THE BALL  Tennessee is ranked first in turnover margin (14.2) in the SEC and second in assist-toturnover ratio (1.5) through Nov. 27 games.  The Lady Vols have committed only 64 turnovers through five games.  Last year at this time they had lost the ball 88 times.  They have 99 assists compared to 64 turnovers, while those numbers were 85 assists and 88 turnovers through five games last season.  Sophomore Jordan Reynolds ranks third in the SEC in assists at 2.8 per game.  Andraya Carter has the No. 2 assist-toturnover ratio in the league at 3.8, while Jordan Reynolds is third at 3.4 and Alexa Middleton is fifth at 2.8.  UT had eight turnovers in the opener vs. Penn and has followed with 13 vs. ORU, 15 against Winthrop and 14 vs. Tennessee State and Chattanooga.  Only one time all last season did Tennessee have a single-digit turnover total in a game, and that came on March 2, 2014, in a home win over South Carolina (73-61) when UT had only seven on senior day.  UT’s freshman trio of Kortney Dunbar, Alexa Middleton and Jaime Nared combined for ZERO turnovers in their first regular season game.  Conversely, Middleton (11) and Nared (4) combined for 15 assists.  Junior center Nia Moore had zero miscues in 31 minutes of duty vs. Penn.  In 33 minutes, point guard Jordan Reynolds committed two turnovers while dishing out five assists, grabbing eight rebounds and tallying three steals vs. Penn.  Reynolds, who had 0 points vs. Penn, drew praise from the coaching staff for not letting her scoring production, or lack thereof, affect the rest of her game.


SHARING THE GLORY  Through five games, UT has 99 assists compared to only 45 for its opponents.  The Lady Vols had 62 assists through five games a year ago.  UT had at least 20 assists in each of its first four games, marking the first time the Lady Vols had done that since the 1987-88 season, when the Lady Vols had a streak of six from Jan. 11 to Jan. 27. They also had a run of five from Dec. 13 to Jan. 3 that season.  UT’s streak of three in a row 20+ assist games was the first since the team had three straight 20-assist games vs. George Washington (23, 11/26/02), Puerto Rico-Mayaguez (27, 11/29/02) and Army (21, 11/30/02).  There were two other instances of four or more straight 20-assist games, and those were five-game runs from Dec. 9, 1985, to Jan. 4, 1986, and Feb. 6, 1981, to Feb. 21, 1981.  Jordan Reynolds and Alexa Middleton are pacing the Big Orange with assists averages of 4.8 and 3.4, respectively.  Reynolds is third among SEC players with 4.8 per game average.  Middleton recorded 11 assists in her first game, the most ever by a Lady Vol in her freshman debut.

THE BEAST IS BACK!  Bashaara Graves, nicknamed “beast” by her teammates as a freshman for her tough play, has recorded points/rebounds doubledoubles in three of five games thus far.  That total matches her tally for her entire sophomore season in 2013-14.  Graves had 10 double-doubles her first season at UT en route to SEC Freshman of the Year and first-team All-SEC honors.  Her career total now equals 16, ranking her 19th all-time at UT though she’s a junior.  Graves posted 10 rebounds vs. three opponents and scored 16, 12 and 15, respectively, vs. Penn, ORU and Winthrop.  Currently, Graves is UT’s third-leading scorer (13.0) and rebounder (8.2).  Graves is tied for 10th in the SEC for rebounds per game (8.2), is second for offensive rebounds per contest (5.0) and stands No. 16 in scoring (13.0).

OWNING THE PAINT  Tennessee is winning the points in the paint battle 248 to 116 over the first five games.  A big reason is that one inside player is averaging a double-double and two others are just shy of one.  Those players include 6-3 Nia Moore (17.8 ppg., 8.4 rpg.), 6-2 Bashaara Graves (13.0 ppg., 8.2 rpg.) and 6-3 Isabelle Harrison (12.0 ppg., 10.0 rpg.).  Nia Moore also is patrolling the paint on the defensive end, averaging 2.2 blocked shots per game, which ranks No. 2 in the SEC.

EMBRACING CHARITY  Tennessee is shooting 78.4% (76-97) from the free throw line as a team.  UT’s opponents are 43 of 70 for 61.4%.  UT was 12 of 14 vs. Penn, hit 10 of 12 against Oral Roberts and dipped to 11 of 16 vs. Winthrop before hitting 28 of 37 vs. TSU and 15 of 18 vs. Chattanooga.  Alexa Middleton (4-4) remains perfect from the line, while Jordan Reynolds (7-8), Andraya Carter (6-7), Ariel Massengale (5-6), Isabelle Harrison (4-5) and Kortney Dunbar (1-2) each have missed only one.

ARIEL IS LOCKED IN  After missing the exhibition game and season opener due to a team rule violation (missed a class), and sitting out the final 16 games of the 2013-14 season due to injury, senior Ariel Massengale picked right up where she left off last season, and then some.  Massengale hit eight of 12 shots from the field and was 4-of-4 from the free throw line to pace UT with 21 points vs. Oral Roberts. She also added three rebounds, two assists and a steal in 23 minutes.  She followed that by hitting a career-high six threes, including five in quick succession, and finishing with 20 points vs. Winthrop.  She now has two 20-plus point efforts this season and five for her career.  Massengale has a 52.4 field goal percentage (22-42), including 11 of 22 on threes for 50%, and is second in scoring average at 15.0.  Over the first 19 games last year, Massengale averaged 12.5 points and 5.8 assists per game and had three games of scoring 20 or more points, making the all-tournament team at the Junkanoo Jam tourney in the Bahamas.

FIRE WHEN READY  With Meighan Simmons graduating and taking with her a gift for three-point shooting, UT has had all three rookies hit long balls and Ariel Massengale got into the act in a big way vs. Winthrop.  Massengale hit six threes vs. Winthrop, including five straight at one point.  Ariel Massengale is 11-of-22 and Kortney Dunbar is 7-of-15 to lead Tennessee so far in 2014-15.  The Lady Vols are 23 of 70 (32.9%) on treys through five games this season.

MOORE, MOORE, MOORE  What a difference a year makes.

ous two year combined total of 103 from her freshman and sophomore seasons.  After scoring 29 points in the exhibition contest vs. Carson-Newman on Nov. 9, Moore appeared to be out to prove a point that her effort was no fluke.  The 6-3 post connected on 12 of 18 shots to card a career- and game-high 24 points for the Lady Vols vs. Penn.  Just for good measure, she rounded up career highs of 14 rebounds and four blocked shots and tied her career best with three assists.  Moore’s points/rebounds double-double was one of a school-record four for UT vs. Penn.  It also was the first time she led the squad in scoring in a regular season game and third time she paced UT on the boards.  Moore’s previous regular season career bests were 12 points (Ole Miss, 2/10/13), 13 rebounds (Troy, 12/14/13), three blocks (Tenn. State, 12/17/13) and three assists (Troy, 12/14/13).  Moore followed that Penn effort with 20 points, nine rebounds, four blocks and two steals in 29 minutes vs. Oral Roberts.  Moore had more field goals (27) in the first two games than she did in either her entire freshman or sophomore seasons when she had 19 each.  After tossing in 14 points vs. Winthrop, Moore posted a career-high 25 points and grabbed 11 rebounds to secure her second double-double of the season vs. Tennessee State.  Moore has connected on 39-of-70 attempts from the field for 55.7%.

LADY VOL 20-20 CLUB  Nia Moore is in some good company with her back-to-back 20+ point scoring efforts to open the campaign.  Moore had 24 vs. Penn and 20 vs. Oral Roberts, becoming just the sixth Lady Vol to accomplish 20-point games in the first two games of the season.  Only two Lady Vols have ever had more than two 20+ games to open a campaign, and they were Lady Vol legends Candace Parker (4) and Chamique Holdsclaw (3).  Ariel Massengale notched back-to-back 20-point games after sitting out the first game of the season.

MASSENGALE RAINS ON WINTHROP  Ariel Massengale connected on her first five 3-point field goals of the game to set the tone, as #4/5 Tennessee thumped Winthrop, 81-48, on Nov. 21 at Thompson-Boling Arena. The senior connected on a career-best 6-of10 3-point field goals in the game on the way to a game-high 20 points.

LOOKING TO IMPROVE BOARD WORK  Tennessee has out-rebounded four of five opponents, but the Lady Vols' haven’t displayed the dominance on the glass that became one of this program's calling cards.  UT is coming off a game in which it outboarded a much shorter UTC team only 3530. The Lady Vols actually trailed in rebounds at the half, 19-12.  However, UT has had some games where it looked strong on the glass.  Tennessee out-rebounded Penn, 60-30, in the opener and had a 27-12 advantage on the offensive glass.  Tennessee only had three games all last season (Ga. Tech, 65; Troy, 74; Lipscomb, 61) where it had 60 or more boards.  The Lady Vols hauled down 27 offensive caroms vs. the Quakers, a total that was eclipsed only twice a year ago (Ga. Tech, 33; Troy, 32).  Nia Moore (14), Isabelle Harrison (10) and Bashaara Graves (10) each pulled down double-digit rebound totals vs. Penn.  The Big Orange women then outrebounded Oral Roberts, 48-39, with Bashaara Graves notching 10 boards for the second straight contest.  UT won the battle of the boards vs. Winthrop, as well, with Bashaara Graves and Cierra Burdick each registering 10 rebounds.  Tennessee didn’t get the job done vs. Tennessee State, allowing the smaller Lady Tigers to take the rebounding battle, 42-37.  That board deficit to TSU was the Lady Vols’ first of the season. The Big Orange were out-rebounded only three times (Stanford, Arkansas, Maryland) all last season.

SUPPORTING LAUREN HILL Number 22. Only two players have ever had a Lady Vol game jersey with that number on it. After the jersey was retired on Feb. 18, 1980, no basketball player has had a No. 22 Tennessee jersey since then. There wasn’t supposed to be another one until Lauren Hill came along. Hill, a freshman basketball player at Mount St. Joseph University, joins third-year UT head coach Holly Warlick (1976-80) and Joy Scruggs (1971-75) as the only basketball players to possess a Tennessee uniform with double deuces. Hill’s inspirational story moved Warlick, Tennessee’s third-year head coach, and Michael Beaumont, the team’s director of operations, to find a way to show Tennessee’s admiration and support for Hill in any way they could. “We were all very touched and moved by Lauren’s story and her desire to play one more basketball game,” Warlick said. “We’ve talked a lot this preseason about being thankful for what we’ve been given and taking advantage of every day, because you never know what can happen. “Lauren’s attitude and fight and spirit embody exactly what we’ve been trying to convey, so we couldn’t help but connect and relate to her immediately. She’s one of us.” 2014-15 LADY VOL BASKETBALL » UTSPORTS.COM » @LADYVOL_HOOPS

DOUBLE-DOUBLE TROUBLE  Tennessee set a program record in the opener vs Penn, with four Lady Vols recording double-doubles in a game for the first time in school history.  Nia Moore had career highs of 24 points and 14 rebounds to card her second career double-double.  Alexa Middleton had 20 points and 11 assists to open her career with a doubledouble.  Bashaara Graves posted 16 points and 10 rebounds for the (then) 14th double-double of her career.  Isabelle Harrison came off the bench to round up 12 points and 10 boards and improve her SEC-leading career total of double-doubles to 25 at that point.  Graves added double-doubles vs. Oral Roberts (12 pts./10 rebs.) and Winthrop (15 pts./10 rebs.). She now has 16 in her career.  Moore produced a career-high 25 points and added 11 boards vs. Tennessee State.  UT has seven total double-doubles through three games.

SENSATIONAL ROOKIE DEBUTS  For only the second time in school history, three Lady Vol freshmen scored in double figures in the same game during their regular season debuts.  Alexa Middleton tossed in 20 points, Kortney Dunbar scored 15 and Jaime Nared added 10 to accomplish the feat.  The first trio to do it made it happen vs. East Carolina on Nov. 24, 1985, as Sheila Frost (16), Bridgette Gordon (13) and Melissa McCray (10) spurred #9/11 UT to a 74-56 victory in Knoxville.  Frost, Gordon and McCray went on to lead UT to NCAA titles No. 1 and 2 in 1987 and 1989.  Middleton also posted a single-game best for most assists in a Lady Vol debut, dishing out 11 to surpass the nine Jody Adams had as #1/1 Tennessee beat Stetson on Nov. 26, 1989, 112-39.  That assist total ties for the second most ever by a freshman in any game. Ariel Massengale holds the record with 12 vs. Vanderbilt on Jan. 15, 2012. Massengale also had 11 vs. Alabama on Jan. 26, 2012, while Meighan Simmons had 11 vs. Alabama on Jan. 6, 2011.  Middleton’s 20 points were the most in a rookie debut since Meighan Simmons came off the bench to score 22 for #4/4 Tennessee in a 63-50 win at Louisville on Nov. 12, 2012.  Middleton is only the fifth Lady Vol rookie to score 20 or more points in her debut.  With her points/assists double-double, Middleton became the seventh Lady Vol freshman and first rookie guard to post a double-double in her first game.  The previous rookie debut double-double was Glory Johnson’s 17/12 effort vs. San Francisco in 2008.  In addition to Middleton and Johnson, the other freshman debut double-doubles, all of them of the points/rebounds variety, were by Mary Ostrowski (15/10 vs. Alabama in 1980), Lisa Harrison (13/12 vs. Stetson in 1989), Tiffany Johnson (18/17 vs. La. Tech in 1994), Chamique Holdsclaw (13/10 vs. Virginia in 1995) and Candace Parker (19/10 vs. Stetson in 2005).

 HEAD COACH HOLLY WARLICK

THE WARLICK FILE Born: June 11, 1958 Education: Bearden High School (Knoxville, Tenn.),‘76 B.S., Tennessee, ‘81 M.S., Virginia Tech, ‘83 Playing Career: University of Tennessee (1976-80): three-time All-American, Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame inductee, 1980 Olympic Team, first player at UT to have her jersey (#22) retired For more than three decades, Holly Warlick has been instrumental in the phenomenal success story that is Tennessee Lady Vols basketball. Her impact on the program stretches from her ground-breaking days as a three-time All-America point guard at UT (1976-80), to her 27 highlyproductive years as a loyal assistant for Hall of Fame coach Pat Summitt, to her ascension to the head coaching position at UT. Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics Dave Hart named Warlick head coach of the Lady Vols on April 18, 2012, as Summitt stepped into the role of head coach emeritus. In a touching and symbolic gesture the following day at a press conference announcing the changes, Summitt presented her coaching whistle to her long-time aide and former floor general. Warlick proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that she was up to the task with her debut effort in 2012-13. Despite having a young, inexperienced team that was picked to finish as low as fifth in the SEC and 20th nationally, the first-year head coach impressively directed her troops to a 27-8 overall record and a 14-2 mark in league play. That effort earned Tennessee its 17th all-time SEC regular season title, and it enabled a team that saw injuries force players to miss a combined total of 53 games to advance to the NCAA Elite Eight for the 26th time in school history. Improvement demonstrated by players not only translated into wins on the court, it also resulted in postseason attention. Meighan Simmons was named a thirdteam AP All-American, SEC Co-Player of the Year and first-team All-SEC. Bashaara Graves was chosen a Full Court Freshman All-American, SEC Freshman of the Year and first-team All-SEC. Kamiko Williams, meanwhile, was taken in the second round of the WNBA Draft by the New York Liberty. Warlick also was singled out for her performance, which included scoring a top-three recruiting class complete with the nation’s No. 1-ranked player in 6-foot-6 Mercedes Russell. The members of the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association named her the Spalding Maggie Dixon Division I Rookie Coach of the Year. She was selected by AP and league coaches as the SEC Women’s Basketball Coach of the Year, and members of the Tennessee Sports Writers Association also chose her as TSWA Women’s Basketball Coach of the Year. In year two, Warlick directed the team to a 29-6 record and the program’s second SEC trophy in as many years with the capturing of the 2014 SEC Tournament. Among her top players were AP SEC Player of the Year Meighan Simmons, who was a third-round WNBA Draft pick of the New York Liberty, and Isabelle Harrison, a firstteam All-SEC choice and the SEC tourney’s MVP. Warlick and her staff also continued building for the future, landing the nation’s number six signing class in 2014. Anchoring that group are McDonald’s All-Americans Jaime Nared and Alexa Middleton, the nation’s No. 6 and No. 28 ranked players. After Warlick helped shape the direction of Lady Vol basketball as an assistant on Summitt’s staff for more than a quarter of a century, the pupil took on greater responsibility and oversaw daily supervision of the basketball office during the 2011-12 season. She also handled a large measure of the media obligations after Summitt’s Aug.

23, 2011, announcement regarding the diagnosis of earlyonset dementia, “Alzheimer’s type.” Providing an excellent example of how people rally around each other, the Tennessee staff members pulled together remarkably in the face of that adversity. The end result was a 27-9 overall record, a league-best 16th SEC Tournament Championship and advancement to the NCAA Regional Final. It’s worth noting that Warlick was by Summitt’s side, either as a player or an assistant, for 949 of the coach’s NCAA-record 1,098 wins and all eight NCAA National Championships. Her value to the program has been evident for some time, as she had held the role of associate head coach since the 2005-06 campaign. The WBCA also had recognized Warlick’s contributions to Tennessee’s success through the years, naming Warlick the nation’s top assistant coach after she helped lead UT to its seventh national title in 2007. The NCAA Division I women’s basketball coaches also recognized Warlick as one of the nation’s top assistants in 1998, ranking her prominently in The Women’s Basketball Journal poll. In addition to the NCAA title and coaching honor in 2007, Warlick also teamed up for the first time with former fellow Lady Vol player and assistant Nikki Caldwell, the current head coach at LSU, to pursue her other passion. That pursuit is riding a motorcycle and raising money for the fight against breast cancer. Warlick and Caldwell created the Champions For A Cause Foundation, a long haul motorcycle ride dedicated to raising funds and awareness for a cure for breast cancer. The charitable organization has raised and donated more than $150,000. Past trips include the inaugural ride from San Francisco to Knoxville as well as trips from the Badlands to Las Vegas and from Knoxville to Key West, Fla., New Orleans, Niagara Falls and, most recently in 2013 and 2014, Panama City, Fla. With all of her accomplishments in coaching and in her charitable endeavors it might be easy to overlook the fact that Warlick left just as powerful a mark on women’s hoops as a player at UT. It doesn’t seem that long ago that the charismatic Knoxville native was flying up and down the court as an All-America Lady Vol point guard. For more than three decades, Warlick has been considered the finest point guard ever to play for the Lady Vols. In addition to being selected to the CONVERSE/Lady Vol Team of the Decade for the 1980s in January of 1994, five different halls of fame opened their doors to her. On Feb. 27, 2004, she was inducted into the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame. In October 2002, she became a member of the University of Tennessee Lady Vol Hall of Fame in the second class of inductees. In June 2001, the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame selected Warlick as one of 10 inductees enshrined into the Hall for the Class of 2001. For the hometown girl, who grew up in the Rocky Hill section of Knoxville and graduated from Bearden High School, it was a dream-come-true. In the summer of 1994, Warlick gained admission to her first hall of fame. She was honored as one of the City of Knoxville’s finest all-time athletes with her inclusion in the Greater Knoxville Sports Hall of Fame. Including the 2013-14 season, Warlick has invested 33 years in the program, having helped shape UT into a national powerhouse with tenure as both a player and a coach. Warlick’s expertise and major contributions to the team as an assistant came from her work with the guards. In 2010-11, Simmons was the SEC Rookie of the Year, and guard Shekinna Stricklen was the 20th Lady Vol named to the WBCA/State Farm All-America Team. Additionally, Warlick has been a highly-successful recruiter for the backcourt, attracting some of the nation’s finest players to UT to continue the excellence she helped establish as a player. The Lady Vols welcomed another top flight guard to the Orange and White for 2010-11 when she landed McDonald’s All-American Ariel Massengale. As a rookie in 2011-12, Massengale lived up to her billing, earning Full Court Freshman All-America and SEC All-Freshman Team honors. The point guard posted a UT freshman record of 162 assists, ranking second in the SEC in that category, and leading the conference in assist-toturnover ratio at 2.1. Warlick’s tutelage also helped to strengthen the game of four-time All-SEC selection Angie Bjorklund, Kodak AllAmerican and four-time Lady Vol All-SEC performer Kara Lawson and three-time All-SEC selection Shanna Zolman. That trio accounts for the school records for most of UT’s three-point marks. Warlick’s association with the Lady Vols started in 1976 when she joined the program as a scholarship 400-meter track athlete who ended up walking on to the basketball team. Soon, she would become the most prolific player in the history of Tennessee Lady Vol basketball. Warlick was the first player in Tennessee athletics (men or women) to have her jersey retired (number 22) at the end of her career in 1980. Bearden, her prep alma mater in Knoxville, retired Warlick’s high school jersey (also No. 22) prior to a home football game on Oct. 26, 2012. Known as a play-making wiz during her four years as UT’s point guard, Warlick was once tabbed the “best player in the South.” As a rookie, Warlick helped lead the Lady Vols to their first Final Four appearance in school his-

tory in 1977. She had no trouble adjusting her enthusiasm and knowledge of the game into the coaching role. In 19 of the past 33 years Warlick has been affiliated with UT, she has found herself at the Final Four as a player (1977, 1979, 1980) or as a coach (1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1991, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007 and 2008). Her best Final Four showing as a player was national championship runner-up in her senior season. As a coach, she has helped the Lady Vols win all eight times (1987, 1989, 1991, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2007 and 2008). A three-time All-American while playing for Summitt from 1976-80, Warlick previously held UT records for most assists in a game (14), most steals in a contest (nine), most assists in a season (225) and most games in a career (142). She continues to hold the Lady Vol single-season steals record with 141 in 1978-79. Warlick possesses vast international experience as well. A member of the 1980 U.S. Olympic basketball team, Warlick also participated in the Jones C up, Pan American Games and World Championship competition. In addition, she was a WPBL All-Star, leading the Nebraska Wranglers to the championship of the Women’s Professional Basketball League in 1981. She has served as a player representative on the USA BASKETBALL council and was a member of the USOC Advisory Council for Basketball. In recognition of being a former Olympian, Warlick earned the distinct honor of running the Olympic torch through Knoxville as it made its way to the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, Ga. Prior to joining the Tennessee staff for the 1985-86 season, Warlick gained experience at two other stops on the coaching circuit. She was an assistant at Virginia Tech from 1981-83 and an assistant from 1983-85 at Nebraska. A native of Knoxville, Warlick earned her B.S. in marketing from Tennessee in 1981 and her master’s degree in athletic administration from Virginia Tech in 1983. Warlick added “biker” to her vitae in 2001. To commemorate her induction into the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame, a number of Warlick’s friends got together and presented her with a Harley-Davidson “Sportster” motorcycle. Just six years later, Warlick already was using her love of the bike towards a greater cause, establishing the Champions For A Cause Foundation with Caldwell.
