GAME 10 SET-UP  #11/13 Tennessee (7-2) is back in Knoxville for the first of four consecutive home games, as it faces Wichita State (6-2) in a 7 p.m. ET contest on Tuesday at ThompsonBoling Arena.  The Lady Vols will make their SEC Network television debut, as Paul Sunderland and Nell Fortner call the action.  The contest also can be seen online via WatchESPN. A “Watch Live” link can be found on the Lady Vol Hoops Central page on UTSports.com.  Mickey Dearstone’s Lady Vol Network call can be heard on the radio on network stations statewide in Tennessee and via audio stream worldwide on UTSports.com.  This marks the first meeting between these schools, but Lady Vol head coach Holly Warlick (as Pat Summitt’s assistant) helped coach both WSU head coach Jody Adams (1989-93) and assistant Bridgette Gordon (1985-89) during their playing careers at Tennessee.  Tennessee went 2-0 on its two-game road swing to Lipscomb (85-51) on Dec. 7 and #17/19 Rutgers (55-45) on Dec. 14 to improve its mark away from Knoxville to 2-2.  Thanks to those triumphs, the Lady Vols bring a three-game victory string into the contest vs. Wichita State.  The Lady Vols overcame 27.5% shooting from the field by out-rebounding Rutgers, 54-42, and holding the Scarlet Knights to 31.1% shooting from the floor.  Tennessee comes into Tuesday’s game with a 5-0 record at Thompson-Boling Arena this season and is in the midst of a nine-game home court winning streak.  Wichita State comes into Tuesday’s contest on a four-game winning streak after edging Kansas State at home on Friday night, 51-48.  During their current string of victories, WSU also defeated Arkansas-Pine Bluff (5526), Clemson (63-48) and Ohio State (7055). The CU and OSU wins came in the USVI Paradise Jam after an opening-game tourney loss to Florida Gulf Coast (56-39).  While the Shockers have ventured outside of Wichita this season, they have played only one game on an opponent’s court, dropping an 86-58 decision at Eastern Washington on Nov. 18 to leave them 0-1 on the road.

A WIN WOULD...  Lift the UT program’s all-time record to 1,255-281 in its 70th season.  Improve Holly Warlick’s record as head coach to 64-16 overall and 37-5 in Knoxville She is 27-11 on the road.  Raise the Tennessee seniors’ career record to 91-25.
