With Ralph and Karen Weekly preparing to enter their 11th season in charge of the Tennessee Lady Vol softball program, the duo enters the new campaign knowing that expectations now, with the talent they have assembled in Knoxville, always consist of challenging for titles on both the league and national levels. With that factor in mind, UT shouldn’t skip a beat in its pursuit of both in 2012 as the Orange & White return four experienced players who have reaped All-American accolades during their careers, all three starting pitchers from last season’s 49-win squad and numerous talented newcomers and role players that will provide impressive depth throughout the new season.

MEDIA INFORMATION BRIAN DAVIS Assistant Media Relations Director Brian Davis rejoined the Tennessee Media Relations staff on a full-time basis in September 2004, after spending the previous year as an assistant media relations director at Vanderbilt University. With the Commodores, Davis handled the day-to-day media relations duties for the women’s basketball and men’s golf programs. He also assisted in the hosting of the 2004 SEC Women’s Basketball Tournament in Nashville, Tenn., and traveled to Athens, Ga., as the media contact with the VU women’s tennis team during its run to the NCAA Final Four.

At UT, Davis is in charge of all publicity efforts for the nationally-ranked softball and soccer programs. The Jackson, Tenn., native is familiar with the Tennessee athletics department after serving for three seasons (2000-03) as a media relations graduate assistant and intern working with the Lady Vol basketball team. Since entering the profession in 1999, he has worked as a contact or assistant contact with eight teams over four sports (women’s basketball, softball, women’s tennis, women’s volleyball) that have been to NCAA Final Fours or the Women’s College World Series, two NCAA finalists and served as a part of eight Southeastern Conference regular-season or tournament championship teams. Davis earned a bachelor’s degree in communications with a broadcasting emphasis from Tennessee in 1997. He completed work on a master’s degree in sport administration from UT in 2002.

TENNESSEE SOFTBALL /// 2012 MEDIA GUIDE

SEASON

PREVIEW TENNESSEE returns 15 letter-winners and seven players that started at least 31 games in 2011

2012 SEASON PREVIEW on the diamond at full speed for 2012, Shipman is expected to anchor the infield at short while providing another powerful bat in the middle of the Lady Vol line-up.

UT’s starting second baseman for the majority of the last two seasons and a current member of the USA Softball Senior’s Women’s National roster, Gibson returns after recording a true breakout 2011 campaign.

The Pasadena, Md., native picked up first team Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-American, All-Southeast Region, All-SEC and SEC All-Defensive (2B) accolades last year after hitting .420 overall with a team-best 13 doubles to go along with eight HR’s and 63 RBIs. She even won the SEC batting title (counting league contests only) with a sterling .451 average against conference opposition. She got on via hit or walk in 52 of 61 contests and posted 20 multi-hit and 16 multi-RBI efforts.

A decorated player out Anaheim Hills, Calif., Tarango ventures to Tennessee with an impressive list of accolades in tow. Both a 2011 ESPN/ RISE Second Team and 2010 ESPN/RISE Third Team All-American, a 2010 NFCA High School First Team All-West Region selection and one of the 2010 “Top Five Softball Players in Orange County,” she was tabbed as All-State, All-CIF, All-Orange County and All-Century League following all four years of her H.S. career (2008, 2009, 2010, 2011). As a senior she hit .486 with 20 RBIs while posting a 23-8 record, 214 K’s and a 2.44 ERA in 198 innings. Most recently she helped the USA Softball Junior Women’s National Team to the ISF IX Junior Women’s World Championship crown in Cape Town, South Africa. Tarango blasted the game-winning grand slam to top Japan in the title contest, 4-1. Expected to start at first base, the Weeklys also have plans on her contributing in the pitching circle.

“Cheyanne is a gifted athlete who plays first, hits for power and can also pitch,” Ralph Weekly said. “I believe she’s ready right now to be a starting pitcher, because she possesses a variety of pitches, very good movement and poise in the circle. She’s played a lot in high-level travel ball and with the USA Softball program, so she enters UT with a lot of solid experience.”

Once again one of the most valuable players on the team because of her versatility will be Melissa Brown. A junior out of Valencia, Calif., she is capable of playing virtually any infield position as witnessed by her 27 career games at second base, 30 career contests at shortstop and 11 nods at third base during the 2011 campaign. Last season Brown hit .292 overall with a pair of doubles, a HR and 11 RBIs, while tallying four multi-RBI and two multihit efforts.

Known more for her exploits in the pitching circle (49-22 career record, 2.91 ERA in 467.0 innings) over her initial three seasons at Rocky Top, senior Cat Hosfield is undergoing a move to first base for 2012, providing vital depth behind Tarango. Despite just eight career at-bats at UT, Hosfield has long demonstrated a lot of pop in her bat during practice, equally capable of lacing a line drive or driving the ball out of the park.

Another freshman who could see time on the infield, but will likely be one of the first summoned in as a pinch runner because of her impressive speed, Trainer arrives at UT from out of Brentwood, Tenn. As a senior shortstop at Ravenwood H.S. in 2010, she was tabbed to The Tennessean’s All-Mid State Team as well as the District 11-AAA Most Valuable Player after hitting .435, to go along with a .500 on-base percentage, 48 runs scored, 49 singles, three doubles and a triple, while setting her school’s single-season (40-for-40 on steals) and career records for thefts.

“Hannah is a real pleasant surprise for us,” Ralph Weekly said. “She wasn’t recruited heavily, but has proven to be a very fast, smart player who possesses solid defensive ability and a good bat. She should receive playing time as she progresses within our program.”

With last season’s everyday catcher making the move to center field in 2012, the starting job behind the plate looks to be in the hands of Escondido, Calif., native and rookie Akamine.

She is the third of a trio of sisters to play Division I collegiate softball, joining her siblings former Arizona pitcher Sarah Akamine and current Penn State senior pitcher/ utility player Lisa Akamine. Having played at catcher, shortstop and in the outfield during her interscholastic career, she recorded stat totals of .306 with seven RBIs as a freshman (2008), .389 with five HR’s and 20 RBIs as a sophomore (2009) and .353 with five HR’s and 29 RBIs during her senior campaign (2011) at Escondido H.S. “Hannah is a very good catcher who possesses a very strong arm and a lot of pop in her bat,” Ralph Weekly said. “During the fall season she cut down numerous runners attempting to steal and even hit a grand slam that proved the big blow in a comeback victory. She will benefit from the experience of our returning catchers: seniors Ashley Andrews and Shelby Burchell.”

Both Andrews and Burchell are expected to help carry the load behind the plate this season, while also contributing elsewhere around the diamond. The former could be called upon for duty on the infield as well as her expected time in the outfield, while the latter could see action in right field, at first base or in the designated player position.

An in-state product out of Columbia, Tenn., senior Burchell demonstrated impressive power during the 2011 campaign by blasting 15 HR’s while hitting .325 A 2011 first team Louisville/Slugger/NFCA All- overall with 54 RBIs. She recorded 17 multi-RBI and 12 American, Lauren Gibson (2010-present) led multi-hit efforts and provided perhaps the moment of the Southeastern Conference in hitting (counting the season with her eighth-inning, walk-off HR to top #8 league contests only) by posting a .451 average Georgia in the SEC Tournament Championship Game, against SEC competition. Overall, she hit .420 with 6-5 (8 inn.).

Having played in all 61 games as a junior with 53 a team-best 13 doubles to go along with eight HR’s starts behind the plate and two at shortstop, Andrews and 63 RBIs. hit .232 with 30 runs scored, two doubles, a triple, nine

With Co-Head Softball Coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly preparing to enter their 11th season in charge of the Tennessee Lady Vol softball program, the duo enters the new campaign knowing that expectations now, with the talent they have assembled in Knoxville, always consist of challenging for titles on both the league and national levels.

With that factor in mind, UT shouldn’t skip a beat in its pursuit of both in 2012 as the Orange & White return four experienced players who have reaped All-American accolades during their careers, all three starting pitchers from last season’s 49-win squad and numerous talented newcomers and role players that will provide impressive depth throughout the new season.

As always, the schedule will be a daunting task full of challenges, but the expectation is that Tennessee will be properly prepared come time to enter postseason play, perhaps well enough to defend its SEC Tournament title and earn the program’s fifth all-time trip to the annual Women’s College World Series in Oklahoma City, Okla.

The Big Orange begins its new journey with 15 returning letter-winners, including seven that started at least 31 games in 2011, while also welcoming back all 49 pitching victories from the circle. UT bolsters that impressive depth with the addition of a sterling class of four high-profile newcomers.

In all, the Lady Vols return 74% of the total hits, 78% of the runs, 67% of the doubles, 75% of the triples, 68% of the home runs, 74% of the RBIs and 83% of the stolen bases from NCAA Division I’s top offense by batting average (.348) in 2011.

Included among the returnees are (2011 stat totals in parentheses): 2011 Louisville Slugger/NFCA First Team All-American and current USA Softball Senior Women’s National Team member Lauren Gibson (Junior, 2B—2011 SEC batting champion counting SEC games only at .451, .420 avg., 13 doubles, eight HR’s, 63 RBIs, 12-12 stolen bases), 2011 USA Softball National Collegiate Player of the Year Top 10 Finalist and Louisville Slugger/NFCA Second Team All-American Raven Chavanne (Junior, 3B/OF—2011 SEC batting champion counting all games, .455 avg., 90 hits, 66 runs scored, 33-36 stolen bases), 2011 Louisville Slugger/NFCA Third Team All-American Ellen Renfroe (Sophomore, P—45 appearances, 27 games started, 26-7 record, 1.50 ERA, 259 K’s in 201.0 IP), 2011 USA Softball National Collegiate Player of the Year Top 25 Finalist and Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-Southeast Region selection Kat Dotson (Junior, OF--.401 avg., 73 hits, 54 runs scored, 10 HR’s, 64 RBIs, 26-31 stolen bases), 2011 SEC All-Freshman choice and recent USA Softball Junior Women’s National Team member Madison Shipman (Sophomore, IF--.292 avg., eight doubles, five HR’s, 27 RBIs), power-hitting utility player Shelby Burchell (Senior, UTL--.325 avg., 15 HR’s, 54 RBIs) and 2010 Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-Southeast Region selection Ivy Renfroe (Junior, P—37 appearances, 25 games started, 19-4 record, 2.07 ERA, 157 Ks in 152.1 IP).

Highlighting the Lady Vol freshman class that was rated No. 2 in the nation for 2011 by ESPN RISE are Cheyanne Tarango (P/IF, Anaheim Hills, Calif.), Hannah Akamine (C/IF, Escondido, Calif.,), Haley Fagan (P/ IF, Cornersville, Tenn.) and recent roster addition Hannah Trainer (IF, Brentwood, Tenn.).

“This should be a very exciting year for Tennessee softball,” Ralph Weekly said. “We have a majority of the players back from the team that led the nation in hitting in 2011, and I believe we currently possess the most depth we’ve ever had at one time during our 11 years at UT, especially on the infield and in the circle. That’s a positive because we have several top players coming back from off-season surgery. The injury bug is going to be a critical factor in our success as always, but the prognosis for those returning to action is good. Overall, the schedule will be challenging and should prepare our squad for a long run in the postseason.”

INFIELD/CATCHING: The Lady Vol infield has per-

haps the most returning experience of any overall position on the field in 2012. At every starting spot, UT can boast, as the expected opening-day starter, a current or former participant with the various USA Softball programs while returning among those individuals a pair of Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-Americans, an SEC All-Freshman choice and a recent, two-time ESPN/ RISE High School All-American. Having guided NCAA Division I in fielding percentage on three occasions since 2005 and consistently rating among the top five nationally demonstrates that the Tennessee coaching staff knows how to get the most out the outstanding talent it has accrued across the diamond.

Moving to the “hot corner” full-time in 2012 is twotime Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-American Chavanne.

A top 10 finalist last season for the USA Softball National Collegiate Player of the Year award, the Thousand Oaks, Calif., native won the SEC batting title (counting all games) last season and finished seventh in all of NCAA Division I at .455 to go along with 90 hits, 32 RBIs and 33 steals. The 2011 first team All-SEC and NFCA AllSoutheast Region selection reached by hit or walk in 55 of her 61 games and posted a team-high 29 multi-hit efforts last season as UT’s everyday lead-off hitter.

An SEC All-Freshman selection last season at shortstop, Shipman is coming off surgery during the offseason to repair her non-throwing shoulder as well as a fractured hamate bone in her left hand that limited her productivity throughout the majority of her rookie campaign in the Orange & White. Despite her health issues last season, the Valencia, Calif., product still managed to hit .292 overall with five HR’s, including a pair of towering grand slams against #21 LSU and Liberty, and 27 RBIs while playing in 58 games (54 starts).

COACHES CO-HEAD COACHES RALPH & KAREN WEEKLY have guided Tennessee to 514 wins in 10 seasons at Rocky Top

CO-HEAD COACH RALPH WEEKLY

CO-HEAD COACH

RALPH WEEKLY 11th Year at Tennessee At 1,015 career victories and counting venturing into his 25th year as a collegiate head coach, Ralph Weekly enters his 11th season at Tennessee with a prestigious new accolade to include on his already impressive resume. The National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) honored his efforts throughout a distinguished, three-decade career that has spanned from his time in the U.S. Air Force through stops at Pacific Lutheran, Chattanooga and now Tennessee, with a 2011 induction into the NFCA Hall of Fame. Voted in by his coaching peers and with the organization consisting of just 49 previous inclusions, Weekly joined Ithaca Head Coach Deb Pallozzi in ceremonies at the annual NFCA Convention in Las Vegas, Nev., in Dec. of 2011.

Looking at his career from just a Tennessee standpoint, the honor would certainly appear well deserved. During their first 10 seasons at the University of Tennessee, Weekly and his wife, Karen, have transformed the Lady Vols from a program searching for an identity into a formidable Southeastern Conference and national contender.

Taking over the reins at UT following a 24-35 campaign in 2001, the Weeklys have long since improved the Orange & White’s fortunes. They guided the Lady Vols through a three-year span from 2005-07 that saw the Big Orange top the 60-win plateau all three times and post both a runner-up finish (2007) and consecutive thirdplace national finishes at the Women’s College World Series (2005, 2006).

During the 2010 campaign the Weeklys molded one of the youngest, if not the youngest, teams in the country into a 2010 WCWS participant that ended the year rated No. 3 in the country in the ESPN.com/USA Softball poll after a third-place national finish. The duo has now led the Tennessee program to a staggering 514 wins since entering the league prior to the 2002 season, an average of over 51 wins per year, and four WCWS berths over the last seven campaigns.

Starting off the 2011 season with a preseason rating of No. 4 in the USA Today/ NFCA Coaches poll, boasting 13 returning letter-winners from the ‘10 WCWS squad and bringing in the ESPN/Rise No. 1-rated recruiting class, Weekly helped guide the Lady Vols to a 49-12 overall record, the program’s second SEC Tournament crown and an eighth consecutive berth to NCAA Regionals. The 2011 Tennessee squad set a new program record for single-season HR’s with a staggering 69 to crush the previous high of 52 that was set back in 1996 and equaled in both 2002 & 2005. The Big Orange also led all of NCAA Division I in hitting with a .348 team batting average, was seventh in the country in scoring at 6.87 runs per game and 11th in fielding percentage (.974).

While the UT squad ultimately fell in the title round of the 2011 Knoxville Regional, a site that many experts deemed the toughest in the country, to eventual WCWS team Oklahoma State, Tennessee still boasted numerous accolades. Weekly picked up his incredible 1,000th career victory on April 10 with a 9-0 (5 inn.) win at Ole Miss.

Sophomores Lauren Gibson (.420 avg., eight HR’s, 63 RBI’s) and Raven Chavanne (.455 avg., 32 RBI’s, 33 stolen bases) as well as freshman Ellen Renfroe (26-7 record, 1.50 ERA, 259 K’s in 201 innings) reaped Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-American honors, while Chavanne was also selected as a Capital One Academic All-American. Sophomore Kat Dotson (.401 avg., 10 HR’s, 64 RBI’s) joined that trio in receiving a Louisville Slugger/ NFCA All-Southeast Region selection, and Renfroe was tabbed as the SEC Freshman of the Year. Chavanne ended the year as the SEC’s batting average champion counting all contests at .455 while Gibson won the SEC batting title counting league match-ups only at .451. Ellen Renfroe was the SEC ERA champion counting just league contests with a 1.42 ERA. Following the season Chavanne, Dotson, Gibson and Kelly Grieve (.376 avg., 37 RBI’s, 21 stolen bases) were each invited to try out for the 2011 USA Softball Women’s Senior National Team, although Dotson was forced to withdraw prior to the selection camp because of an injury. By being chosen to the final team, Gibson and Grieve became the second and third Lady Vols all-time (Monica Abbott) to join the prestigious squad.

The 2010 slate proved a magical ride for an incredibly young squad made up of 19 players, including a total of 15 freshmen and sophomores. The Lady Vols registered a 49-15 overall record (making it eight straight 40+ win seasons) and truly peaked at the right time, rolling through their first seven games of the NCAA Tournament on the way to the program’s fourth WCWS berth and another third place national finish.

Along the way in NCAA action, Tennessee swept Ball State, Virginia and Louisville during the Knoxville Regional, ended No. 2 Michigan’s two-year, 36-game home winning streak by sweeping two consecutive contests in the NCAA Ann Arbor Super Regionals and opened the WCWS with consecutive victories over No. 3 Arizona (9-0, 5 inn.) and No. 9 Georgia (7-5) before being eliminated by the Wildcats just one win from a berth in the best-of-three championship series.

The youthful 2010 squad was guided by a quartet of upperclassmen, including senior catcher Tiffany Huff (NFCA All-South Region choice, .312 avg., seven HR’s, 45 RBIs), first baseman Erinn Webb (.318 NCAA Tourney avg., nine total HR’s, 34 RBIs) and designated player Nicole Kajitani (three doubles, three HR’s, 22 RBIs) as well as junior center field speedster Kelly Grieve (.373 avg., 12 doubles, 30 RBIs, 26 thefts). The team was bolstered, however, by a myriad of high-profile freshmen including Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-American outfielders Raven Chavanne (.455 avg., 64 runs, 95 hits, 10

TENNESSEE SOFTBALL /// 2012 MEDIA GUIDE

26 RBIs, 37 steals) and Kat Dotson (SEC First-Team selection and Co-Freshman of the Year, .391 avg. 54 runs, 66 hits, 37 RBIs, 29 thefts), NFCA All-Southeast Region choices -- pitcher Ivy Renfroe (31-6 record, 2.41 ERA, 15 complete games, 235 K’s in 232.1 IP) and third baseman Jessica Spigner (.350 avg., 14 doubles, eight HR’s, 58 RBIs) and SEC All-Freshman second baseman Lauren Gibson (.297 avg., eight doubles, six HR’s, 39 RBIs).

During the 2009 season, Tennessee continued its seven-year string of 40+ win campaigns by putting up a 40-18-1 overall record. Once again the Big Orange earned a berth into the NCAA Tournament, the program’s sixth straight, falling in the NCAA Regionals. Led by the offensive production of Second Team Louisville Slugger/ NFCA All-American Huff (.399 avg., 13 doubles, eight HR’s and 67 RBIs), freshman All-Southeast region selection Spigner (UT freshman record 14 HR’s) and sophomore All-Southeast Region choice Grieve (.393 avg., 79 hits, 39 stolen bases) as well as 28 victories in the circle from rookie right-hander Cat Hosfield, UT downed such foes as No. 21 Massachusetts, No. 6 Oklahoma, No. 18 LSU and No. 8 Georgia during the year.

The 2008 campaign was a success as the Weeklys guided the Big Orange to a fifth consecutive 50-win season at 50-16 overall and a fifth straight berth into the NCAA Tournament Field of 64. UT advanced to the championship game of its home-hosted NCAA Regional but dropped a 4-2 decision to eventual WCWS-participant Virginia Tech.

Under their tutelage, senior third baseman Tonya Callahan (.465 avg., 62 RBIs) broke the school record for single-season home runs with 16 in 2008 on the way to being chosen as Tennessee’s second consecutive SEC Player of the Year and a finalist for both the USA Softball National Player of the Year trophy and the Honda Award for Softball while reaping UT’s 15th Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-America honor since 2004.

The 2007 season was the benchmark by which all future Lady Vol teams will be compared as the squad finished 63-8 for a new program-best winning percentage of .887. A third-straight trip to the WCWS ended with Tennessee becoming the first Southeastern Conference program to reach the best-of-three NCAA Championship Series, eventually finishing as national runner-up with two wins over No. 4 Arizona and triumphs against No. 6 Northwestern and No. 7 Texas A&M. UT spent a record 11 consecutive weeks at No. 1 in the ESPN.com/USA Softball poll, becoming the first SEC school to reach the lofty top ranking in the league’s softball history.

Four players were chosen as Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-Americans in 2007 as Monica Abbott, Lindsay Schutzler, India Chiles and Callahan each garnered national honors. Abbott also picked up the prestigious USA Softball National Collegiate Player of the Year award and the Women’s Sports Foundation’s “Team Sport Athlete of the Year” trophy after registering a 50-5 record with a 0.68 ERA on the year. Chiles was the SEC’s Player of the Year after hitting .459 with 44 stolen bases, while Abbott was the SEC’s Pitcher of the Year. The Lady Vols led NCAA Division I in fielding percentage, winning percentage and team ERA in 2007, while picking up its first SEC regularseason title with a 23-4 league mark. For their efforts the Weeklys were chosen as the South Division Speedline Coaches of the Year, for the second time in three seasons, and as the SEC Coaches of the Year.

In 2006, the Weeklys guided the Lady Vols to a then-program-best single-season winning percentage of .836 after tallying a 61-12 record, UT’s initial SEC Tournament title and WCWS victories over #1 UCLA, eventual national champion No. 3 Arizona and No. 9 Arizona State. Tennessee also led NCAA Division I in hitting by posting a staggering .342 team batting average. Pupils Sarah Fekete and Abbott led the country in batting average and pitching victories, respectively, while five Lady Vols were chosen first-team Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-Americans.

The tools and chemistry were thought to be in place for success heading into the 2005 campaign, but youth abounded for UT with a roster completely devoid of a single senior. However, the 2005 season saw Tennessee reap its initial NCAA Regional and Super Regional titles and WCWS berth, tie a then-national record with 67 wins, finish third in the nation in both national polls, garner an impressive four Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-America selections and break a long-standing national mark for single-season shutouts with 51. A Super Regional sweep over No. 4 Stanford in Palo Alto, Calif., and WCWS victories over perennial national stalwarts Arizona, Alabama and eventual national champion Michigan proved that Tennessee, under the direction of the Weeklys, was officially a power to be reckoned with in the softball world.

For their efforts the UT coaches were chosen as the 2005 Speedline South Region Coaching Staff of the Year.

In 2004, the club notched a then school-record 55 victories on its way to its first Eastern Division title in five years and its initial trip to NCAA Regionals since 1999.

Ralph and Karen were honored as the SEC Co-Coaches of the Year as UT finished with a final ranking of 16th from ESPN.com/USA Softball and boasted its first All-American in freshman hurler Abbott. The 6-3 lefthander registered a staggering 582 K’s and 45 victories in her initial campaign at Rocky Top. Tennessee continued its upward movement in the SEC standings in 2003 and notched then the second-most victories in school history with a 45-25 mark. Despite being overlooked for a spot in the 64-team NCAA field, the Lady Vols made their first appearance at the SEC Tournament in four years and eliminated top-seeded and seventh-ranked Georgia and Auburn before being ousted by WCWS participant Alabama.

Year one of the Weeklys’ rebuilding effort proved to be a preview of better things to

COACHES & STAFF

RALPH WEEKLY’S COACHING CAREER

SEASON PREVIEW

gridiron, he helped the Lutes to three national title games and a pair of NAIA national championships (1987 & 1993). In his last year he was able to share the title-winning experience with his son Marc Weekly, an All-American quarterback and a player responsible for 10,977 yards of career total offense.

Weekly began his coaching career in the United States Air Force, where he accumulated many championships at a variety of levels. He piloted squads to three All-Armed Forces World Titles, seven state titles at the United States Softball Association (USSA) level and three USSA Western World Championships.

He has served as the chairperson of the Gatorade High School Player of the Year Selection Committee and has published numerous articles in softball magazines and journals. In addition, Weekly has been a featured speaker at the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) national convention and at various national baseball and softball clinics around the nation. He currently serves as the co-director of the Cherry Hill, N.J., Coaches Clinic which is the largest such event in the country.

Weekly is the founder and director of National Hitting Camps, where he has taught thousands of youths in all 48 of the contiguous states and throughout Canada over the past 20+ years. He was also the Director of ASA Gold Medal Camps that featured hands-on training from U.S. Olympic staff and players from 1996-2001. Well-respected internationally as a clinician, he has represented the USA in clinics in Argentina, Australia, Canada, China, Italy, New Zealand and Taiwan.

Having retired from the United States Air Force in 1986, Weekly was the commander of the Air Force Office of Special Investigations at McChord Air Force Base in Washington, D.C., in his last duty assignment. He was awarded the Bronze Star and Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry for outstanding service in the Vietnam War. Weekly is a 1973 graduate of Arizona State University and has completed course work for a master’s degree in international relations from Pacific Lutheran.

GENERAL INFO

come for the Big Orange, as the tandem directed the squad to a 35-25-1 overall record in 2002 and the club’s first winning season since 1999. Having lost the squad’s top four hitters from the previous campaign and with their projected pitching ace facing a reduced schedule in the circle due to a torn ligament in her elbow, expectations were minimal. After being picked last in the Eastern Division, Tennessee responded with the best start in the program’s seven-year existence at 21-6-1.

Under Ralph’s watchful eye in the batting cages, Adrianna Wilson capped off an outstanding senior campaign by being named to the 2002 NFCA All-South Region team. Chosen to the organization’s second unit as a rookie in ’99, the Cypress, Calif., native joined Carrie Swinford (1997, 1999) as the lone UT players to reap all-region accolades twice in her career. A first-team choice in her final season, Wilson became UT’s initial all-region honoree since 1999.

On June 19, 2001, University of Tennessee Women’s Athletics Director Joan Cronan charted a new course for the Lady Vol softball program when she announced the Weeklys as the program’s co-head coaches. Since that day, the duo has worked tirelessly toward building UT’s reputation on the diamond. “What they accomplished during their tenure at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, including five regular-season Southern Conference championships and five SoCon Tournament titles, speaks for itself,� said Cronan. “They have a passion for the sport of softball and a love for the state of Tennessee that will be an asset as they attempt to turn things around.

This combination should help take our program to the next level in collegiate softball.�

The Weeklys arrived in Knoxville after shaping Chattanooga’s softball team into one of the top programs in the South upon their arrival in 1995. The tandem piloted the Lady Mocs to consecutive NCAA appearances in 2000 and 2001, the first two automatic NCAA Regional berths ever offered to the Southern Conference champion.

In 2001, UTC sported an overall record of 49-18 and was an impressive 4-1 against SEC programs.

After accepting the co-head coaching position at UT, Ralph Weekly announced in August 2001 that he would be stepping down from his post as USA Softball National Teams Director, a position he had held since 1999. Weekly began his administrative stint with USA Softball in August 1998 after taking a leave of absence as head coach at Chattanooga.

Weekly, who is nationally and internationally recognized for his skills as a hitting clinician, was responsible for a variety of national team duties, including the general management of USA Softball’s elite level international programs for both men and women. He also served as a liaison to the ASA National Team Selection Committee that is responsible for the elite level selection process for Olympic, Pan American Games and other USA Softball National Teams. In the summer of 2009, Weekly accepted a position on the USA Softball Women’s National Teams Selection Committee where he will again assist in choosing the members to the prestigious U.S. softball squads from 2010-12.

Between 1998 and 2001, Weekly worked closely with the U.S. Olympic Committee (USOC) to ensure that USA Softball received adequate funding for its programs and was fully equipped with the technical assistance it needed. He was also instrumental in securing the funding for the development of a state-of-the-art practice facility at the ARCO Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista, Calif. This facility has been used by all of the USA Softball National Teams and will continue to be an integral part of USA Softball’s success.

Success has followed Weekly throughout his career, especially as a coach for USA Softball Women’s National Teams. Weekly served as the hitting coach and Team Leader for the 2000 U.S. Olympic team that claimed its second-consecutive gold medal in Sydney, Australia. Earlier, he served as the hitting and third-base coach for the U.S. contingent that brought home the gold at the ’96 Summer Games in Atlanta.

Under his direction, USA Softball captured the gold medal at the 1994 Pan American Games qualifier in Guatemala. He was an assistant on teams that won additional gold medals at the 1994 World Games in Nova Scotia, the 1995 Pan American Games in Argentina, the 1996 South Pacific Classic in Australia, the 1997 Canada Cup, the 1999 Pan American Games in Winnipeg, Canada, the inaugural 1999 America Cup in San Diego, the 2000 European Championship in Rome, Italy, and the 2001 Hawaii Cup in Honolulu.

As a coach and National Teams Director for USA Softball, Weekly has appeared in 13 international tournaments, winning a gold medal every time. His international coaching record is a sterling 130-15 (.897). He is the only person in collegiate softball to have served on a pair of Olympic gold-medal-winning coaching staffs and to have claimed two national championships as a head coach. He also directed all facets of the USA Men’s National Team from 1999-2001.

He has developed High Performance Seminars funded by the USOC to establish consistent coaching philosophies for youth coaches throughout the world. In addition, Weekly has produced several instructional tapes through USA Softball, including “Fundamentals for Future Champions.� In December of 2006, Ralph and co-head coach Karen Weekly released a new instructional video entitled “Hitting the Tennessee Way.� In April 2012 the Weeklys will issue a new book entitled “HighScoring Softball,� the definitive guide to offensive play.

He guided the women’s East team to a gold medal at the 1994 U.S. Olympic Festival in St. Louis, Mo., one year after taking the North team to a bronze medal in the Festival held in San Antonio, Texas.

Previously, Weekly was the head coach at Pacific Lutheran in Tacoma, Wash., from 1986-94, where he compiled a 310-93 (.769) record and became one of the most successful coaches in NAIA history. In his nine years at PLU, his teams made eight trips to the NAIA Tournament, returning with national championships in 1988 and 1992, and a second-place finish in 1990. His 1991 team was ranked first in the country throughout the season.

Weekly was named the National Softball Coaches Association (NSCA) Small College Coach of the Year in 1993 and was a two-time NAIA National Coach of the Year in 1988 and 1992. Incredibly, he was chosen as the NAIA West Region Coach of the Year eight times in a nine-year span, covering the 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1992, 1993 and 1994 campaigns.

During the fall, he also served as an assistant football coach at PLU from 1986-93 under legendary head coach Frosty Westerling. During his time spent working on the

CO-HEAD COACH KAREN WEEKLY

CO-HEAD COACH

KAREN WEEKLY 11th Year at Tennessee A 15-year collegiate softball head coaching veteran boasting 737 career wins, Karen Weekly preps to enter her 11th season with her husband Ralph at the helm of the Lady Volunteer softball program. Having guided UT to a staggering 514 victories and four top three national finishes in the annual Women’s College World Series (2005, 2006, 2007, 2010), since arriving to resuscitate the program prior to the 2002 season, is concrete proof that tireless recruiting and solid coaching by the experienced Weeklys and their staff have provided huge dividends to the UT softball program.

Starting off the 2011 season with a preseason rating of No. 4 in the USA Today/NFCA Coaches poll, boasting 13 returning letter-winners from the ‘10 WCWS squad and bringing in the ESPN/Rise No. 1-rated recruiting class, Weekly helped guide the Lady Vols to a 49-12 overall record, the program’s second Southeastern Conference Tournament crown and an eighth consecutive berth to NCAA Regionals. The 2011 Tennessee squad set a new program record for single-season HR’s with a staggering 69 to crush the previous high of 52 that was set back in 1996 and equaled in both 2002 & 2005. The Big Orange also led all of NCAA Division I in hitting with a .348 team batting average, was seventh in the country in scoring at 6.87 runs per game and 11th in fielding percentage (.974).

While the UT squad ultimately fell in the title round of the 2011 Knoxville Regional, a site that many experts deemed the toughest in the country, to eventual WCWS team Oklahoma State, Tennessee still boasted numerous accolades. Sophomores Lauren Gibson (.420 avg., eight HR’s, 63 RBI’s) and Raven Chavanne (.455 avg., 32 RBI’s, 33 stolen bases) as well as freshman Ellen Renfroe (26-7 record, 1.50 ERA, 259 K’s in 201 innings) reaped Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-American honors, while Chavanne was also selected as a Capital One Academic All-American. Sophomore Kat Dotson (.401 avg., 10 HR’s, 64 RBI’s) joined that trio in receiving a Louisville Slugger/NFCA AllSoutheast Region selection, and Renfroe was tabbed as the SEC Freshman of the Year. Chavanne ended up as the SEC’s batting average champion counting all contests at .455 while Gibson won the SEC batting title counting league match-ups only at .451. Ellen Renfroe was the SEC ERA champion counting just league contests with a 1.42 ERA. Following the season Chavanne, Dotson, Gibson and Kelly Grieve (.376 avg., 37 RBI’s, 21 stolen bases) were each invited to try out for the 2011 USA Softball Women’s Senior National Team, although Dotson was forced to withdraw prior to the selection camp because of an injury. By being chosen to the final team, Gibson and Grieve became the second and third Lady Vols all-time (Monica Abbott) to join the prestigious squad.

The 2010 campaign proved a magical ride for an incredibly young Tennessee squad made up of 19 players, including a total of 15 freshmen and sophomores. The Lady Vols registered a 49-15 overall record (making it eight straight 40+ win seasons) and truly peaked at the right time, rolling through their first seven games of the NCAA Tournament on the way to the program’s fourth WCWS berth and another third place national finish. Along the way in NCAA action, Tennessee swept Ball State, Virginia and Louisville during the Knoxville Regional, ended No. 2 Michigan’s two-year, 36-game home winning streak by sweeping two consecutive contests in the NCAA Ann Arbor Super Regionals and opened the WCWS with consecutive victories over No. 3 Arizona (9-0, 5 inn.) and No. 9 Georgia (7-5) before being eliminated by the Wildcats just one win from a berth in the best-of-three championship series.

The youthful 2010 squad was guided by a quartet of upperclassmen, including senior catcher Tiffany Huff (NFCA All-South Region choice, .312 avg., seven HR’s, 45 RBIs), first baseman Erinn Webb (.318 NCAA Tourney avg., nine total HR’s, 34 RBIs) and designated player Nicole Kajitani (three doubles, three HR’s, 22 RBIs) as well as junior center field speedster Kelly Grieve (.373 avg., 12 doubles, 30 RBIs, 26 thefts). The team was bolstered, however, by a myriad of high-profile freshmen including Louisville Slugger/National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) All-American outfielders Raven Chavanne (.455 avg., 64 runs, 95 hits, 26 RBIs, 37 steals) and Kat Dotson (SEC First-Team selection and Co-Freshman of the Year, .391 avg., 54 runs, 66 hits, 37 RBIs, 29 thefts), All-Southeast Region choices -- pitcher Ivy Renfroe (31-6 record, 2.41 ERA, 15 complete games, 235 K’s in 232.1 IP) and third baseman Jessica Spigner (.350 avg., 14 doubles, eight HR’s, 58 RBIs) and SEC All-Freshman second baseman Lauren Gibson (.297 avg., eight doubles, six HR’s, 39 RBIs).

As a team the powerful Tennessee offense recorded a .321 batting average, scored 6.4 runs-per-game, tied the program record for triples with 19 and blasted 51 HR’s, coming up just one big fly short of tying the school singleseason mark.

During the 2009 season, Tennessee continued its string of 40+ win campaigns by putting up a 40-18-1 overall record. Once again the Big Orange 12

earned a berth into the NCAA Tournament, the program’s sixth straight, falling in the NCAA Regionals. Led by the offensive production of Second Team Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-American Tiffany Huff (.399 avg., 13 doubles, eight HR’s and 67 RBIs), freshman All-Southeast region selection Jessica Spigner (UT freshman record 14 HR’s) and sophomore All-Southeast Region choice Kelly Grieve (.393 avg., 79 hits, 39 stolen bases) as well as 28 victories in the circle from rookie right-hander Cat Hosfield, UT downed such foes as No. 21 Massachusetts, No. 6 Oklahoma, No. 18 LSU and No. 8 Georgia during the year.

The 2008 campaign was a success as the Weeklys guided the Big Orange to a fifth consecutive 50-win season and a fifth straight berth into the NCAA Tournament Field of 64. UT advanced to the championship game of its home-hosted NCAA Regional but dropped a 4-2 decision to eventual WCWSparticipant Virginia Tech.

Under their tutelage, senior third baseman Tonya Callahan (.465 avg., 62 RBIs) broke the school record for single-season home runs with 16 on the way to being chosen as Tennessee’s second consecutive SEC Player of the Year and a finalist for both the 2008 USA Softball National Player of the Year trophy and the Honda Award for Softball while reaping UT’s 15th Louisville Slugger/ National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) All-America honor since 2004.

Senior shortstop Kenora Posey and freshman infielder Jen Lapicki each earned All-SEC accolades. Karen’s slap-hitting standouts, Lillian Hammond and Kenora Posey, were responsible for .362 and .349 averages, respectively, 96 total runs scored and 67 combined stolen bases.

The 2007 season was the benchmark by which all future Lady Vol teams will be compared as the squad finished at 63-8 for a new program-best win percentage of .887. A third-straight trip to the Women’s College World Series ended with Tennessee becoming the first Southeastern Conference program to reach the best-of-three NCAA Championship Series, eventually finishing as national runner-up with two wins over No. 4 Arizona and single triumphs against No. 6 Northwestern and No. 7 Texas A&M. UT spent a record 11 consecutive weeks at No. 1 in the ESPN.com/USA Softball poll, becoming the first SEC school to reach the lofty top ranking in the league’s softball history.

Four players were chosen as Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-Americans in 2007 as Monica Abbott, Lindsay Schutzler, India Chiles and Callahan each garnered national honors. Abbott also picked up the prestigious USA Softball National Collegiate Player of the Year award and the Women’s Sports Foundation’s Team Sport Athlete of the Year trophy after going 50-5 with a 0.68 ERA on the year. Chiles was the SEC’s Player of the Year after hitting .459 with 44 stolen bases. The Lady Vols led NCAA Division I in fielding percentage, winning percentage and team ERA in 2007 while picking up its first SEC regular-season title. For their efforts the Weeklys were South Division Speedline Coaches of the Year, for the second time in three seasons, and as the SEC Coaches of the Year. Karen Weekly also presided over her 500th career coaching victory on February 24, 2007, when UT downed Michigan State, 3-0, at the Palm Springs Classic in Cathedral City, Calif.

Weekly’s tutelage helped guide Tennessee to a then-program-best .836 winning percentage in 2006 at 61-12 overall, a No. 2 national ranking during the regular season and a second consecutive trip to the Women’s College World Series in Oklahoma City, Okla., where UT finished third nationally and downed #1 UCLA, #3 Arizona and #9 Arizona State. One of her slap-hitting pupils, senior outfielder Sarah Fekete, led NCAA Division I in batting average at a staggering .500 (110-of-220) as the UT squad combined to lead the country in team hitting at .342. In all three of the top five hitters in the Southeastern Conference by average in 2006 learned under the watchful eye of Karen and co-head coach Ralph Weekly, as Fekete, Chiles (.437) and Schutzler (.409) gave the league statistics a definitive orange tint. Five members of Weekly’s team also were selected as first-team Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-Americans to lead NCAA Division I in that category.

UT also achieved another program-first in ‘06 as the Orange & White raced through the field at the annual SEC Tournament to pick up its first league tournament title with a 3-0 victory over #12 LSU at the UGA Softball Stadium in Athens, Ga. UT hosted the NCAA Regional round at home for the second straight year and added the Super Regionals to the Tyson Park slate after roaring through the opening round a perfect 3-0. The Big Orange faced a serious challenge as defending national champion Michigan ventured to Knoxville for the best-of-three Super Regional series. After downing UM 5-3 and then dropping a tough 5-1 decision to the Wolverines in game two, UT prevailed 1-0 in the finale to send the Orange and White back to the WCWS. Throughout the Weeklys tenure at Tennessee, the Big Orange have been known for tremendous speed, skyrocketing batting averages and outstanding fielding percentages, as UT led the nation in the latter category in both 2004, 2005 and 2007.

The Orange’s and White rapid climb from a 24-win program in 2001 to a national power reached a new peak during a stunning 2005 run to a thirdplace finish at the Women’s College World Series and a national record-tying 67 victories. UT led the nation in fielding percentage (.982), shutouts (51), strikeouts (787) and victories (67) while setting program marks for runs scored

KAREN WEEKLY’S COACHING CAREER

SEASON PREVIEW

basketball team.

With a 3.8 grade point average, Weekly was a two-time Academic AllAmerican, garnering honors in 1986 and 1987. In both ’85 and ’86, she was the recipient of the prestigious Pacific Lutheran University Undergraduate Fellow/ Division of Social Sciences Award.

She later earned her juris doctor degree from the University of Washington’s School of Law in 1990. At Chattanooga, Weekly was an assistant professor in the College of Business Administration from August 1995 until May 2001, where she taught a course entitled the “Legal Environment of Business.�

Between 1996-99, she served on the UTC Faculty Committee on Student Rating of Faculty Instruction. In addition, Weekly was an administrative law judge and a member of the school’s Gender Equity Committee from 1996 until her departure from Chattanooga. She remains an administrative law judge at the University of Tennessee.

Previously, she was an associate attorney at Grant, Konvalinka & Harrison in Chattanooga from November 1994 to August 1995 after working in a similar capacity at Williams, Kastner & Gibbs in Seattle from September 1990 through November 1994.

Weekly holds memberships in the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA), where she has held several committee positions, and the Academy of Legal Studies in Business. She is a member of the American Bar Association and is permitted to practice law in the states of Tennessee and Washington.

Having traveled all over the nation to spread her knowledge about the sport, Weekly has been a co-owner and director of National Hitting Camps since 1988. She also has been a lead instructor at ASA Elite Hitting Camps in Midland, Texas, and in Oklahoma City, Okla., and has been a featured speaker at several coaching clinics around the country. She has spoken at the “Be the Best You Are� clinic in Cherry Hill, N.J., during each of the last six years, covering such topics as developing power and bat speed, the short game, scouting opponents and developing a rapport between the coach and players.

In December 2007, Weekly released a video entitled “The Tennessee Slap Attack,� an instructional tape teaching the fundamentals of slap-hitting. In April 2012 the Weeklys will issue a new book entitled “High-Scoring Softball,� the definitive guide to offensive play.

Weekly is currently serving as a member of the coaching pool for the various teams associated with the prestigious USA Softball program. She traveled to the Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista, Calif., in June 2011 to help with the USA Softball Women’s Senior National Team Selection Camp.

GENERAL INFO

(404), hits (678) and stolen bases (127) and tying the single-season record for home runs (52). Tennessee’s regular-season efforts permitted the program the opportunity to host the NCAA Regionals at Tyson Park for the first time in UT history. The home field advantage paid dividends as the Lady Vols went 3-0 to advance to NCAA Super Regionals in Palo Alto, Calif., against Stanford. A two-game road sweep over the powerful Pac-10’s Cardinal granted Tennessee its first trip to the WCWS. For their efforts the coaches were chosen as the Speedline South Region Coaching Staff of the Year.

The Weeklys were honored as the SEC Coaches of the Year by their peers after directing UT to its first Eastern Division championship since 1999 during the 2004 campaign. The Orange was awarded the second seed at NCAA Regional No. 6 in Ann Arbor, Mich., and collected its first two victories in just the program’s second trip to NCAAs. The Lady Vols sported an overall mark of 55-16 and captured tournament titles at their own Lady Vol Classic, the New Mexico State Kick-Off Invitational, the Paradise Classic hosted by the University of Hawaii and the State-Line Classic. Tennessee also reached the semifinal round of the SEC Tournament for the second straight time.

UT continued to climb the ladder of success in 2003, capturing three tournaments and posting several victories over ranked opponents, including league rivals Alabama, Georgia, LSU and South Carolina. Perhaps the most impressive breakthrough occurred as the Lady Vols secured the sixth seed for the Southeastern Conference Tournament and matched their top performance at the event with a couple of triumphs while facing elimination. The Orange were involved in a record four extra-inning tilts during their journey to Plant City, Fla., and managed to oust Auburn and the league’s number-one team, Georgia, after dropping regular-season series to the Tigers and Bulldogs.

Continued evidence of the team’s progress was shown by a 34-point increase in batting average from 2002 to 2003 under the Weekly regime and a healthy boost to the squad’s power numbers, including the most total bases (787), hits (543), runs batted in (280), runs (310) and doubles (102) since the 1999 edition slugged its way to the Eastern Division crown and NCAA Regional No. 3 in Seattle, Wash.

In their debut campaign, the Weeklys presided over the biggest turnaround in UT’s softball history, as the team rebounded from a lackluster 24-35 effort to finish 35-25-1 in 2002. The Lady Vols showed marked improvement in every area – offensively, defensively and in the pitching circle. Despite just one returning starter in her natural position, the rest of the orange-clad players enjoyed a tremendous upswing under the Weeklys’ tutelage. In fact, UT registered a team batting average that was 40 points higher than the previous season and recorded a school-record fielding percentage of .965 after shaving a massive 44 errors off its ’01 figure. In addition, the club’s offensive statistics jumped across the board, including a school-record-tying 52 home runs.

Upon arriving in Knoxville, Weekly brought a wealth of experience gained from being an All-America softball player at Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma, Wash., a national title-winning assistant coach at PLU in 1988 and 1992, and a championship head coach at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga for five seasons. During her tenure, the Lady Mocs claimed five straight Southern Conference regular-season trophies, four SoCon Tournament plaques and the team made successive appearances at the 2000 and 2001 NCAA Regionals.

After Karen served as an assistant coach at UTC in 1995 and 1996, the Weeklys combined their efforts to direct the Lady Mocs to the top of the SoCon in their first two campaigns in charge of the program together. The 1997 season featured an overall record of 32-19, while the ’98 edition registered a school-record 47 victories and three players earned first-team All-South Region accolades.

While Ralph was on a leave of absence from Chattanooga to handle his Olympic duties in 1999 and 2000, the Lady Mocs’ program continued to make steady improvement under Karen’s tutelage. In her initial season as head coach in ’99, UTC led the SoCon with a .303 batting average and a 1.47 earned run average en route to a school-best 48-18 overall record to go along with a spotless 16-0 mark in regular-season conference play. Weekly guided a record six individuals to first-team All-SoCon accolades that season and Chattanooga became the inaugural team to sweep all of the postseason honors issued by the conference office.

In 2000, the Lady Mocs were 47-27 and earned the program’s first NCAA Regional berth by winning three-straight games after a loss to Furman to take the SoCon Tourney and secure the initial automatic bid for the conference into the 48-team regional field. Sent to the No. 1 Regional held in Seattle, Wash., the Mocs fell to Mississippi State, 6-1, before bouncing back to knock out Army, 6-4, in nine innings. The squad would later be eliminated at the event after suffering a 2-1 defeat to nationally-ranked Utah. UTC’s pitching staff was the key to its success, sporting an impressive 1.58 earned run average with every hurler having an ERA of 1.80 or lower.

In rolling to a 49-18 overall mark in 2001, including four wins in five outings against SEC competition and a triumph over then-third-ranked Alabama in Tuscaloosa, the Weeklys helped the Mocs to another NCAA appearance following Southern Conference regular-season and post-season crowns. Six more Lady Mocs etched their names on the first-team all-league list after UTC racked up an 18-2 ledger in SoCon play and the Weeklys were selected as league Coaches of the Year.

Karen was Ralph’s top assistant at Pacific Lutheran from 1987-94 after earning her bachelor’s degree in history and political science magna cum laude from the University in 1987. The duo spearheaded the Lutes to NAIA national championships in 1988 and 1992 and a runner-up finish in 1990.

At PLU, where she was known as Karen Kvale, Weekly excelled as a student-athlete. She was named Female Athlete of the Year and led NAIA hitters with a .440 batting average during her All-America senior season. Her skills were not limited to the diamond either, as she was a three-year starter on the

ASSISTANT COACH MARTY MCDANIEL

ASSISTANT COACH

MARTY McDANIEL Eighth Year at Tennessee Lauded for his teaching ability and his overall knowledge of the game, Marty McDaniel continues to provide his outgoing personality and boundless enthusiasm to the Lady Vol softball program as an eighth-year assistant coach on the staff of Tennessee Co-Head Coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly. A former head coach at Division II Armstrong Atlantic State University (Ga.), McDaniel’s experience as both a coach and as a men’s fastpitch veteran has been invaluable to the UT efforts.

During his time on the UT softball staff, McDaniel has been vital to the program’s stunning success. His pitching pupils such as standouts Monica Abbott, Megan Rhodes, Ashton Ward, Cat Hosfield, Ivy Renfroe and Ellen Renfroe have helped extend Tennessee’s streak of 40+ win seasons to nine venturing into the 2012 campaign. During his seven years at Tennessee (2005-11) his staffs have led the nation in ERA and strikeouts (2007), set a national record for shutouts (51 in 2005) and helped the Big Orange to 379 total victories, an average of 54 winsper-season.

With the addition of freshman Ellen Renfroe to a Lady Vol staff already made up of returning sister Ivy and Hosfield, the UT pitching staff registered a standout 2011 campaign. The trio combined to rate second in the league in team ERA (1.86) and 23rd in the category over all of NCAA Division I. Ellen Renfroe led the Southeastern Conference in ERA (counting league contests only) with a sterling 1.42 mark on her way to SEC Freshman of the Year accolades and posted a 26-7 overall mark (fourth in the SEC in wins) to go along with a 1.50 ERA and 259 strikeouts over 201 innings. Included in her efforts were a 20-strikeout effort during a 2-1 (10 inn.) victory over #22 Auburn and seven total 10+K contests. Ivy Renfroe finished seventh in the league in triumphs, as part of her 19-4 record, and ninth in ERA (counting all games) at 2.07 while posting 157 K’s in 152.1 frames of effort. The Jackson, Tenn., native also twirled her second (vs. Mississippi State - April 22) and third (vs. Liberty - May 20) career no-hitters during her sophomore campaign. As a junior Hosfield added a 4-1 mark with a 2.92 ERA over 38.1 innings of work with 24 strikeouts.

Faced with an young and inexperienced staff consisting of returning sophomores Cat Hosfield and Jessica Spigner and two incoming freshmen, Ivy Renfroe and Andi Williamson, McDaniel helped the 2010 group settle in to post 49 wins, the league’s fifth-best ERA at 2.78 and 12 shutouts. His new pupil Renfroe truly thrived under his direction, posting a 31-6 mark with a 2.41 ERA, 15 complete games and 235 strikeouts over 232.1 innings of work. She became the first Lady Vol pitcher not named Monica Abbott to win 30 or more games in a single season and post a victory at the annual Women’s College World Series. The 6-0 right hander registered perhaps her finest effort during NCAA Super Regionals at No. 2 Michigan, flirting with a no-hitter for 6.1 frames before settling for a two-hit shutout to end the powerful Wolverines two-year, 36-game home winning streak. Renfroe also three-hit eventual national finalist No. 3 Arizona in UT’s WCWS opener as Tennessee rolled past the Wildcats, 9-0 (5 inn.). Hosfield was solid from the circle in support in 2010, registering a 17-8 overall mark with a 3.27 ERA with six complete games and 130 K’s in 171.1 innings. During her campaign, the Murfreesboro, Tenn., product posted victories over high-profile foes including No. 15 Texas, Illinois State, Ole Miss, Auburn, No. 4 Florida, Louisville and No. 2 Michigan. Typically a third baseman, Spigner recorded a pitching win over Austin Peay and picked up a crucial save during a 5-4 home triumph over No. 9 Georgia, while Williamson allowed just a single tally in five innings of work over three appearances.

Rookie righthander Hosfield led the way for the Lady Vol pitching crew in 2009, posting a 28-13 record with six solo shutouts and 221 strikeouts in 257.1 innings of work. She tied for 12th in NCAA Division 14

TENNESSEE SOFTBALL /// 2012 MEDIA GUIDE

I in wins, second in the Southeastern Conference in victories, rated fourth in strikeouts (221) and 11th in opposing batting average (.222), while posting high-profile victories over No. 6 Oklahoma (twice), No. 15 Massachusetts, No. 18 LSU (twice), No. 25 Kansas and Auburn (three wins). Included in her SEC All-Freshman campaign was a hard-fought 2-1 defeat to eventual national champion Washington, during which Hosfield allowed just two runs on seven hits in a duel with 2009 USA Softball National Player of the Year Danielle Lawrie. Forced to look further into the staff as the long ’09 season wore on, he helped senior Danielle Pieroni to an 8-3 mark over 57 innings of work after she entered the year with all of 22.2 frames of collegiate pitching experience. He even helped freshman Spigner, who hadn’t thrown in a pitch in nearly a year, contribute 16 innings, including a big 6-3 win at No. 8 Georgia.

His charges in the circle helped guide Tennessee to a fifth consecutive 50-win campaign in 2008 while posting 17 shutouts, a 2.10 team ERA and 431 K’s in 437.0 innings of work. Freshman righthander Ward spent the season among the SEC win leaders and finished 25th in NCAA Division I in victories by going 27-5 overall with a team-best 1.88 ERA and 187 strikeouts. Senior Rhodes was responsible for 23 triumphs, 213.1 innings of work and 233 K’s. The Nashville, Tenn., native concluded her time wearing the Orange & White firmly entrenched in the Lady Vol top four in career wins, K’s, shutouts, ERA, appearances, starts and winning percentage. Junior Pieroni demonstrated improvement in the circle during 2008 by working 19.1 frames and highlighting her year with 2.2 innings of scoreless relief in an exhibition contest against the U.S. Olympic Softball Team.

During the 2007 drive to a runner-up national finish at the Women’s College World Series, McDaniel helped the Tennessee staff to an NCAAbest 0.88 ERA to go along with 63 wins, 41 shutouts and a national single-season record strikeout-per-seven-inning ratio of 13.55 on 910 combined K’s over 470 innings of work. His pupils in the circle, Abbott and Rhodes, finished first (14.1) and fourth (11.7), respectively, in K-per-seven-inning ratio in the country. Senior Abbott led the way in single-season strikeouts with an NCAA record 724. She completed her stay in the Orange & White as the NCAA career leader in wins (189), strikeouts (2,440), shutouts (112), appearances (253) and innings pitched (1,448.0). Rhodes struck out 186 batters over just 111.2 frames of work while going 13-3 with a 1.50 ERA. The duo also combined to hurl eight no-hitters, including three perfect games (two for Abbott, one for Rhodes). For his efforts, he was named as part of Speedline’s South Region Coaching Staff of the Year for the second time in three seasons (2005).

His pitching staff continued their stellar work in the circle during UT’s run to the WCWS in 2006 by leading the league in ERA at 1.12 with a 61-12 overall record, 37 shutouts and 682 strikeouts. Junior All-American Abbott led the nation in victories with 44 and broke the SEC career records for K’s and triumphs during the regular-season after posting a 44-10 mark with 531 K’s. Sophomore Rhodes continued her rapid improvement by going 17-2 overall with a 1.40 ERA and 148 strikeouts in just 120 innings of work. The staff hurled three consecutive no-hitters during the title-winning USF adidas Tournament and almost got a fourth straight as a bloop single by UMass in the fifth inning of the championship contest broke up the amazing bid.

Working primarily with the pitching and catching positions during the record-setting 2005 campaign, McDaniel instructed a group of hurlers that broke a long-standing national record for shutouts with 51 blankings while helping guide UT’s initial advance into the WCWS. The first-year McDaniel’s charges combined for 67 victories in the circle with an overall ERA of 0.79 and 787 strikeouts in 547.0 innings.

Sophomore Abbott became the program’s first two-time, first-team All-American after leading the nation in victories (50), shutouts (34), strikeouts (603) and innings pitched (392.0). Rookie pitcher Rhodes posted 14 victories and 125 K’s on her way to SEC All-Freshman honors.

GENERAL INFO

Armstong Atlantic State (Ga.) from its infancy in 1998, McDaniel turned the AASU varsity program into a winning machine that captured its initial Peach Belt Conference championship in 2000, garnered four NCAA Championship berths (2000, 2002, 2003, 2004) and achieved a No. 1 ranking in the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) poll during the 2000 campaign. His conference-winning squad in 2000 picked up an impressive 51 victories against just seven losses and registered an 18-2 league mark in PBC play.

With the assistance of four All-Americans, McDaniel’s 2004 AASU squad advanced all the way to the South Atlantic Regional. Recordsetting senior pitcher Katya Eronina picked up her second-consecutive first-team NFCA All-America honor while a pair of seniors, Stacey Richardson and Kissy Stepanova, garnered second-team All-America awards. Junior second baseman Stacy Oliver was selected as a thirdteam All-American.

During the 2003 campaign, AASU utilized the pitching of NFCA All-America Eronina, the Division II leader in earned-run-average, to advance to the South Atlantic Region final. The Pirates achieved a final ranking of 16th and completed the season at 41-13 overall.

All-Americans Annie Sells and Richardson helped guide the 2002 version of McDaniel’s Pirates to a No. 2-seeding at the South Atlantic Regional and another final ranking of 16th. AASU registered the best won-lost record in Division II with a 40-7 mark while Richardson was the NCAA’s DII home run champion with a school-record 16 round-trippers.

The squad finished with a 15-2 mark for a second-place finish in the Peach Belt Conference.

The 2000 South Atlantic Coach of the Year, McDaniel has had experience on the Weeklys’ staff before as he joined AASU from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. During his two-plus year stint on the staff of then Head Coach Ralph Weekly, also a U.S. Olympic Assistant Coach, Chattanooga won two Southern Conference Championships.

A native of Chattanooga, Tenn., McDaniel received his Bachelor of Science degree from Carson-Newman College in 1989 and also assisted with the baseball team as a coach for two seasons. As a top-rated pitcher, McDaniel has made numerous all-region squads in the sport of men’s fastpitch softball.

During 2008 he was honored in a ceremony at Armstong Atlantic State as a coaching inductee into the softball program’s “Wall of Fame.�

McDaniel and his wife, the former Kelly Stewart, currently reside in Knoxville, Tenn. The pair have a child, Lindsey Jo, who was born during the 2005 softball campaign.

VOLUNTEER ASSISTANT COACH

MARC WEEKLY Eighth Year at Tennessee Marc Weekly begins his eighth season as a member of the Lady Vol softball staff in the capacity of a volunteer coach after working with Co-Head Coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly in camps and summer clinics for over 15 years. He will work primarily with UT’s catchers and outfielders and will also assist with hitting instruction.

Weekly started at quarterback at Pacific Lutheran University for four seasons (1990-93) during which he led the Lutes to four NAIA Division-II national playoff appearances and two national championship games. In 1993, he guided PLU to the program’s third NAIA Division-II National Championship and was named the Most Valuable Player in each contest during the squad’s playoff run. The 1993 first-team All-American was accountable for six touchdowns in the title tilt, throwing for four scores and running for two more in a 50-20 rout of Westminster, Pa., in Portland, Ore. Weekly continues to hold season and career records at Pacific Lutheran for NPTU QBTTJOH ZBSET JO GSPN NPTU UPVDIEPXO QBTTFT JO GSPN

BOE NPTU UPUBM PGGFOTF ZET JO GSPN

Following his collegiate experience at Pacific Lutheran, Weekly, a former Associated Press Blue Chip Pick in baseball, was offered a minor league contract as a catcher in the Seattle Mariners organization, but turned it down to sign a deal with the Edmonton Eskimos in the Canadian Football League (CFL). After two years with the Eskimos, he enrolled at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in the master’s program and served as a football graduate assistant for two years working with the UTC quarterbacks and kickers.

A 2004 inductee in the Pacific Lutheran University Athletic Hall of Fame, Weekly holds a bachelor’s degree from PLU and a master’s degree from Chattanooga. He currently resides in Seymour, Tenn., with his wife Cheryl and three children: Jake, Regan and Garrett.

HISTORY &

RECORDS THE LADY VOLS won the program’s second SEC Tournament title in 2011 and advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the ninth time overall

SOUTHEASTERN CONFERENCE “The Standard For Excellence” The Southeastern Conference, with its storied 78-year history of athletic achievements and academic excellence, has built perhaps the greatest tradition of intercollegiate competition of any league in the country since its inception in 1933.

The 2010-11 academic year was another season to remember for the SEC as conference teams captured five national titles and three national runner-up finishes. The SEC has won consecutive national championships in baseball, football and men’s indoor track & field. Since 1990, the SEC has won 140 national team championships for an average of more than six per year.

Auburn won the SEC’s first national title of the year with its win in the BCS National Championship Game in football. It is the SEC’s fifth consecutive football national title.

Florida won its second consecutive national title in men’s indoor track & field while the Gators’ women’s tennis team also captured the national championship. Alabama won its fifth gymnastics national title and South Carolina won its second consecutive national championship in baseball. Florida finished first among Southeastern Conference schools and fourth overall in the Director’s Cup final standings.

Overall, the SEC finished in the top two in eight of its 20 sponsored sports and in the top five in 14 of the 20 sports. Ten SEC teams participated in football postseason bowls with Auburn, LSU, Mississippi State, Alabama and Florida winning the BCS National Title Game, Cotton, Gator, Capital One and Outback bowls, respectively. Five men’s basketball teams were invited to the NCAA Tournament and four women’s basketball teams were also invited to the NCAA Tournament. The SEC had seven teams advance to postseason play in baseball, hosting three regionals with South Carolina, Florida and Vanderbilt advancing to the College World Series. With 139 teams advancing to NCAA postseason competition, the SEC continued to solidify its place as the nation’s premier conference.

In addition to the four team championships, 39 SEC student-athletes garnered individual national championships, while 367 individuals were awarded with First-Team All-America Honors. Student-athletes around the league continued to excel in the classroom as well with more than 2,500 earning recognition on the SEC Academic Honor Roll.

On the national all-sport level, nine SEC schools placed in the top 40 of the NACDA Director’s Cup rankings. Florida led the league with a fourth place finish. LSU placed 19th while Georgia was 20th, Tennessee finished 22nd, Arkansas 24th, Alabama 25th, Auburn 31st, Kentucky 36th and South Carolina 39th to round out the league’s top-40 finishes.

SOFTBALL IN THE SEC SEC Softball will celebrate its 16th year of existence in 2012 and has established itself as one of the leading conferences in the sport.

The Southeastern Conference qualified seven teams for the 2011 NCAA Tournament - Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, LSU and Tennessee, as the conference made its 14th overall, ninth consecutive, Women’s College World Series appearance. The Alabama Crimson Tide received the No. 2 national seed while four SEC teams earned national seeds overall: No. 2 Alabama, No. 4 Florida, No. 6 Georgia and No. 14 Tennessee.

The SEC advanced two teams to Oklahoma City: Alabama and Florida. The Gators advanced to the championship series.

Alabama won the 2011 conference title as they posted a 19-6 SEC mark. It was their second consecutive year winning the hardware and third title in school history. The Tide posted a 45-7 overall record and Kelsi Dunne earned SEC Pitcher of the Year honors for the second year in a row. Florida’s Kelsey Bruder was named SEC Player of the Year while Tennessee’s Ellen Renfroe earned Freshman of the Year accolades. Kentucky’s Meagan Aull was selected as Scholar-Athlete of the Year while Co-Coach of the Year honors went to Tim Walton (Florida) and Yvette Girouard (LSU).

Softball came under the auspices of the Southeastern Conference in the 1996-97 season. Since that time, 10 different conference teams have made appearances in the NCAA Championship, including six teams earning Women’s College World Series berths - one

by South Carolina in the inaugural season, Alabama in 2000, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009 and 2011, Florida in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011, Georgia in 2009 and 2010, LSU in 2001 and 2004 and Tennessee in 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2010.

Eight teams (Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Mississippi State, South Carolina and Tennessee) have made Top 25 appearances and six teams have climbed into the Top 10 (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, LSU, South Carolina and Tennessee) of the NFCA/USA Today Poll. At least one SEC team has been ranked in the poll each week since the inception of SEC Softball.

South Carolina is the longest standing program of the league with a rich history in softball dating back 37 seasons. The Gamecocks have made 15 NCAA Regional and three Women’s College World Series appearances. Mississippi State played softball for five seasons during the 1980’s before resuming the sport when it was added to the SEC. Tennessee added softball in 1995-96, one year before its inception in the SEC. Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, LSU andOle Miss began softball programs in 1996-97 to give the league 11 representatives (Vanderbilt does not sponsor softball).

The 1999 season was the first in which the conference was eligible for an automatic berth to the NCAA Championships.

As the sport continues to grow in competitiveness and popularity, the SEC has had six different regular season champions and five different conference tournament champions.

When the NCAA Selection Committee announced the 48-team field for the 1999 NCAA Softball Tournament, the Lady Vol softball squad heard the news it had been awaiting since the inception of its program in the fall of 1995. With a 44-25 overall record and a first-ever Southeastern Conference Eastern Division title on its resume, Jim Beitia’s club earned an at-large bid to one of the eight, six-team regional sites.

As a third seed, Tennessee traveled to Seattle, Wash., for a first round meeting with number four seed Cal-State Fullerton. Host Washington, ranked sixth nationally, drew the top seed in the double-elimination event on its home field. While the Orange & White dropped both of its contests in the Pacific Northwest, the results failed to lessen the achievement of participating in the nation’s premier event after recording the program’s most successful campaign to date.

After recording a program-record 55 victories and picking up its first Southeastern Conference Eastern Division title since the 1999 season, the Tennessee Lady Vol softball team, under the direction of SEC Co-Head Coaches of the Year Ralph and Karen Weekly, continued its successful run by nabbing its first NCAA bid in five years. As the second seed in NCAA Regional No. 6, the Orange & White would travel to Ann Arbor, Mich., to participate in a double-elimination format.

The Lady Vols opened the event by downing IllinoisChicago to register the program’s initial NCAA Tournament victory and added another with a 4-0 defeat of the DePaul Blue Demons. Tennessee would be eliminated, however, from the rain-plagued event by suffering defeats to No. 18 Oregon State (4-0) and Illinois-Chicago (6-5).

Following a stellar 59-13 regular-season, the Tennessee Lady Vol softball team was chosen to the NCAA Tournament field of 64 for the second consecutive season. As a bonus for their No. 11 national seeding, the Orange & White were allowed to host the NCAA Regional round at Tennessee’s Tyson Park.

UT opened its tournament run with a dominating 9-0, fiveinning victory over Miami (Ohio) behind a two-hitter from hurler Monica Abbott.

After a 4-0 throttling of College of Charleston advanced the Lady Vols to the regional title game, Abbott no-hit the Cougars in a rematch as sophomore shortstop Lindsay Schutzler delivered a crucial two-run home run in UT’s 2-0 win. With the triumph, the Big Orange advanced to the NCAA Super Regional in Palo Alto, Calif.

With the program’s first NCAA Regional title in its back pocket, UT was summoned to wing its way across the country to battle No. 4-ranked Stanford at the Smith Family Stadium in Palo Alto, Calif. Down to a best two-of-three game format, Tennessee made the most of its opportunity with consecutive shutout victories to take the crown and advance to the program’s initial berth in the Women’s College World Series.

While Monica Abbott was in the process of striking out 12 Stanford hitters in a two-hit, 2-0 victory in game one, junior utility player Katherine Card was busy delivering an RBI single in the first and a solo home run in the sixth to give UT all the runs necessary to take a 1-0 series lead.

Another solid pitching performance in game two by Abbott (one-hitter) was backed up by a five-run third inning outburst as the Orange downed SU 6-0. Three Cardinal errors led to three UT unearned runs.

TENNESSEE SOFTBALL /// 2012 MEDIA GUIDE

Tennessee’s first-ever trip to the Women’s College World Series was just about everything that the squad and co-head coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly could have desired. Three stirring victories, late-inning heroics, national television coverage and big-game experience on the largest national stage in softball made UT’s visit to Oklahoma City, Okla., a memorable one. In the end, the Lady Vols finished third and came up just short of a berth in the NCAA Championship series.

MEET THE TEAM

Behind sophomore Monica Abbott’s one-hit, 12-strikeout performance and a key hit by junior utility player Katherine Card, the Lady Vols picked up their first-ever WCWS victory with a 1-0, triumph over the third-ranked Arizona Wildcats. In the sixth inning, Card singled down the right field line. Pinch-runner Ashley Cline, who was on second, raced around third and scored the game’s lone run as a result of a Wildcat throwing error. The victory was the 200th of Ralph and Karen Weekly’s UT coaching career.

A classic fastpitch softball game unfolded late on June 5 in Oklahoma City, Okla., with No. 1 Michigan and No. 11 Tennessee battling for almost 11 full innings in a scoreless tie. With one down in the bottom of the 11th and at 1:21 a.m. CT, freshman first baseman Tonya Callahan ended the suspense with a towering shot just over the wall down the left field line to grant UT a 2-0 victory. Abbott worked all 11 innings to establish a new career-high.

The Wolverines plated a run in the first off Abbott and added two more in the third on a two-run shot by Stephanie Bercaw.

Freshman Natalie Brock helped UT get back in the game with a two-RBI double in the fifth. UT left a runner stranded at second in the seventh to fall short by just a single run.

In 37 innings of work at the 2005 WCWS, sophomore hurler Monica Abbott went 3-2 with a 0.76 ERA and 37 strikeouts.

The 6-3 lefthander from Salinas, Calif., fired three shutouts in victories over Arizona, Alabama and Michigan in picking up alltournament honors. In UT’s 2-0 win over the No. 1 Wolverines, Abbott worked a career-high 11 innings.

Junior utility player Katherine Card hit a solid .375 at the Women’s College World Series on her way to all-tournament honors. In UT’s initial foray into WCWS play, the Soddy Daisy, Tenn., native’s single down the right field line in the sixth inning scored the Lady Vols’ lone run in a 1-0 victory over No. 4 Arizona.

Stephanie Humphrey Sayne, Kendall Rainey (manager) Another dominating regular season and the first Southeastern Conference Tournament title in program history granted UT a ton of confidence heading into its third straight NCAA Tournament. For the second straight season, Tennessee’s Tyson Park would serve as host for the NCAA Regionals.

In the regional opener the Big Orange found themselves down 4-2 to upstart Tennessee Tech after 3.5 innings and without Monica Abbott who had been lifted from the contest. UT rallied with a four-run fourth keyed by a two-RBI single by Sarah Fekete to survive 6-4.

Waiting next for the Lady Vols was ACC Pitcher of the Year Angela Tincher and Virginia Tech. A first inning grand slam by clutch postseason performer Katherine Card set the tone as Tennessee rolled 9-1 (five inn.).

With a berth in the NCAA Super Regionals hanging in the balance, #18 Louisville sent BIG EAST Pitcher of the Year Catherine Bishop to the circle to oppose Abbott. UT’s 6-3 lefty struck out 12 in a twohitter and the Orange & White rang up eight runs on 10 hits in an 8-1 rout.

The NCAA draw made sure that Tennessee’s initial stint hosting the Super Regional round would be a challenge as defending national champion Michigan ventured to Knoxville for a best-of-three game set.

UT and the Maize & Blue had split a pair of epic contests at the WCWS in 2005 to eliminate the Lady Vols from title contention.

Tennessee jumped on top 2-0 in the opener as a Tonya Callahan single and a Katherine Card sac fly plated a pair in the fourth. Michigan rallied to knot the score, but a three-run sixth from the Lady Vols keyed a 5-3 win. Abbott struck out 11 in the complete game.

After UM’s Jennie Ritter got the measure of the Big Orange in game two by a 5-1 count, Tennessee sent Abbott back to the circle with an all-or-nothing game three waiting. She didn’t disappoint by twirling a five-hit, nine-K shutout as the Lady Vols prevailed 1-0. Clutch Card laced an RBI single to to right center in the sixth to score the game’s only run. UM loaded the bases in the bottom of the seventh with two down, but Abbott struck out Rebekah Milian to end the series.

Tennessee enjoyed an enthusiastic fan following at the Women’s College World Series in Oklahoma City, Okla.

MEET THE TEAM

The Lady Vols wasted little time in pulling off the first stunner of the 2006 Women’s College World Series, as UT rallied past #1 UCLA in a contest that didn’t end until 2:01 a.m. local time. Down 2-0 heading into the sixth frame, Tonya Callahan singled and the Bruins committed a crucial error to tie the contest at 2-2.

Kristi Durant drove in Lillian Hammond for a one-run lead. Durant came through again with an insurance tally in the seventh. It proved a good thing as UCLA scored one, but left two stranded to end it.

The task was outlined...defeat #3 Arizona twice in a day to advance to the WCWS Championship Series. UT took care of business in the opener by downing the Wildcats, 1-0. Abbott and UA’s Alicia Hollowell dueled through four scoreless frames before the clutch Katherine Card drove a Hollowell offering to deep center.

Arizona’s Caitlin Lowe raced back and actually dove over the wall trying to make the catch. She didn’t come up with the ball as UT took the one-run lead. Abbott made it count in a two-hitter.

Abbott (44-10) T-1:52 A-3864 For the second straight season, the Lady Vols came up just a win short of the WCWS Championship Series falling to #3 Arizona, 6-0. The Wildcats wasted no time jumping on Abbott by plating a pair of runs in both the first and second.

Three uncharacteristic UT errors opened the door for three unearned runs as UA added single tallies in the third and sixth frames. Tennessee completed the 2006 campaign third nationally and with 61 victories against 12 losses for a programbest .836 win percentage.

The orange-clad partisans in attendance as well as the national television audience watched UT stave off elimination behind the efforts of WCWS and UT rookie Jennifer Griffin. The Whittier, Calif., native drove a pitch over the right center field wall in the ninth for a two-run, game-winning home run in UT’s 3-1 triumph. The above picture is from the moment of contact.

Despite suffering through a back injury for the majority of the 2006 campaign, senior designated player Kristi Durant demonstrated her grit and toughness by returning with a vengeance in the WCWS. The Placentia, Calif., native hit at a teambest .333 clip on her way to WCWS AllTournament honors. She went 2-for-4 with two RBI in the upset of #1 UCLA.

For the third straight season, UT swept its three match-ups to advance on to the best-of-three Super Regional.

In the opener, Tennessee senior pitcher Monica Abbott (5 IP, 0 H, 13 K) and junior hurler Megan Rhodes (1 IP, 0 H, 0 K) combined on a perfect game by facing the minimum of 18 Furman hitters over six frames. Up 2-0 heading to the fifth, a three-run blast by Shannon Doepking helped the Orange roll to an 8-0 (6 inn.) win.

In a rematch of an early season match-up, UT plated a pair of runs in the first frame against North Carolina via a Tonya Callahan RBI single and a Doepking sacrifice fly. Abbott struck out 17 in a complete-game six-hitter. Unfortunately India Chiles also suffered a torn ACL on a play between first and second.

In the regional title contest Tennessee bested Winthrop 7-0 behind RBIs from Anita Manuma, Alexia Clay and Kenora Posey.

Abbott struck out 12 in a three-hit shutout.

The NCAA Super Regionals brought Tennessee a surprise, as No. 12 Hawai’i and its powerful offense roared into Knoxville after having taken down perennial power UCLA in the regionals. For freshman Anita Manuma, the visit had special significance, as her sister Valana Manuma played shortstop for the Rainbow Wahine.

Having been on the mainland for weeks for conference and NCAA play, Hawai’i looked overwhelmed in the first game of the series as Abbott no-hit the Wahine and struck out 10 in a 9-0 (5 inn.) blowout.

Freshman Tiffany Huff knocked in a career high five runs in the matchup.

Hawai’i’s powerful bats got uncorked in the second contest by blasting three home runs and outlasting the Lady Vols, 9-6. UT plated four runs in the top of the seventh, but the rally proved fruitless.

Staring elimination squarely in the eye, down 1-0 in the fourth frame, UT rookie put together a three-run fourth on a big two-RBI double from Erinn Webb and a four-run fifth to win 7-1 and advance on to the WCWS. May 25, 2007 at Knoxville, Tenn.

MEET THE TEAM

UT downed No. 7 Texas A&M, 2-0, to advance on in the winner’s bracket. Lady Vol senior pitcher Monica Abbott struck out 16 to break the NCAA single-season strikeout record (665 K’s) and threw her third career postseason and 23rd overall no-hitter. Even with all that, the story of the game proved to be injured senior India Chiles singling in the eventual game-winning run in a crucial seventh-inning rally. The Big Orange also broke the WCWS single-game record for stolen bases by swiping five in the match-up with two steals each by Lindsay Schutzler and Kenora Posey and one from Erinn Webb.

The Lady Vols utilized another pitching gem from Monica Abbott, solo home runs by junior Shannon Doepking and freshman Alexia Clay and another clutch RBI single from ever-dependable senior India Chiles to down No. 4 Arizona, 3-0, and take a 1-0 lead in the best-of-three WCWS Championship Series. Abbott became the first pitcher ever to cross the 700-strikeout plateau in the triumph and improved her scoreless inning streak to 33.2 consecutive frames.

Lady Vol autographs were in high demand after each game by the huge crowds that swarmed Oklahoma City throughout the Women’s College World Series.

The 2007 campaign will go down as the most successful in program history for Tennessee for a variety of reasons after a second-place finish at the Women’s College World Series, the program’s first Southeastern Conference regular season title and the initial No. 1 ranking in school and league history. The season also will be remembered as one of disappointment after coming so very close to UT’s first softball national title before falling short in a 5-0 loss to No. 4 Arizona in Oklahoma City, Okla. UA erupted for five runs in the fifth to back a Taryne Mowatt shutout to win its eighth title.

The Tennessee Lady Vol softball team received its fifth consecutive bid to the NCAA Field of 64 and played host to its fourth consecutive NCAA Regional in 2008. UT managed a 3-2 overall record in the event, being eliminated in the championship contest by eventual Women’s College World Series participant Virginia Tech and its All-American hurler Angela Tincher by a 4-2 count.

The Big Orange rode a combined one-hit shutout from Megan Rhodes and Ashton Ward to a 3-0 victory over Winthrop in both teams’ opener, marking UT’s 10 straight NCAA Regional victory dating back to 2004. Va. Tech utilized 14 strikeouts from Tincher and a surprise grand slam from No. 9 hitter Caroline Stolle to race past Tennessee 4-0 and drop the Lady Vols into the loser’s bracket. Forced into action again later that day, UT blew out Louisville, 8-1, as freshman Jen Lapicki blasted a homer and knocked in four runs.

With two teams remaining with a chance at NCAA Super Regionals, UT had to beat Tech twice in the same day to advance. The Big Orange used the Erinn Webb power show to drop the Hokies 7-1 in the opener as the Hemet, Calif., native hammered two home runs in the triumph. Up 1-0 after three innings and with the momentum, UT was undone by a 50-minute rain delay.

Following the break, Tech responded with a four-run top of the fourth to eventually prevail 4-2 and send UT home early.

The 2009 Tennessee Lady Vol softball team secured the program’s sixth consecutive trip to NCAA Regionals as the nation’s No. 13 seed for the second straight year. Hosting the regional round for the fifth consecutive season, UT advanced to the championship round of the event at Lee Stadium before dropping back-to-back match-ups to upstart Jacksonville State and ending its season at 40-18-1 overall.

A clutch RBI single in the bottom of the seventh inning from freshman third baseman Jessica Spigner backed 1.1 frames of scoreless relief by senior hurler Danielle Pieroni as Tennessee outlasted James Madison in its regional opener, 4-3. A 5-2 triumph over Nebraska on the strength of a clutch threerun, second-inning double by pinch hitter Ashton Ward sent the Big Orange through to face JSU for a place in NCAA Super Regionals.

Jacksonville State wasted little time in getting to UT for a pair of runs in the second frame and four more in the sixth on the way to a 6-1 victory to force a championship-deciding game. Despite jumping in front 1-0 during the opening inning on a sacrifice fly from junior catcher Tiffany Huff, Tennessee watched the Gamecocks rally for single tallies in the top of the fourth and fifth innings versus Pieroni to eventually prevail, 2-1, and advance through to the best-of-three Super Regionals.

MEET THE TEAM

Tennessee picked up the national No. 15 seeding and earned the right to host NCAA Regionals in Knoxville for the sixth straight season. UT swept its three match-ups to advance on to a best-of-three Super Regional for the first time since 2007.

In the opener versus Ball State, UT freshman pitcher Ivy Renfroe tossed a four-hit shutout in her first NCAA Tournament action as the Lady Vols prevailed, 5-0. Rookie second baseman Lauren Gibson had the big blow at the plate with a tone-setting, two-run homer during the Lady Vols’ three-run first inning.

The Big Orange set numerous NCAA program records, including those for most single-game runs, hits and RBIs, in an 11-2 rout of Virginia to advance to the Knoxville Regional title tilt for the sixth consecutive campaign. Freshman left fielder Raven Chavanne equaled a program NCAA mark with four hits as part of a 4-for-5, two-RBI effort, while junior center fielder Kelly Grieve went 3-for-5 with a double and two RBIs and sophomore third baseman Jessica Spigner was 2-for-5 with two RBIs. Between Tennessee and its fourth all-time berth in the NCAA Super Regionals was Louisville, making its third trip to Knoxville for NCAA’s after previous visits in 2006 & 2008. UL struck first on a HR by clean-up hitter Chelsea Bemis in the second inning. A two-out single by Grieve and an RBI double off the bat of Spigner tied the score at 1-1 in the fifth. With regulation play not enough, the match-up progressed to the ninth frame where a leadoff double by Gibson started a two-run UT outburst. Sophomore pitcher Cat Hosfield, who had fired eight innings of four-hit ball, gave way to Renfroe in the circle. The 6-0 right hander worked a perfect ninth for the save as UT advanced on to super regionals.

Back in the NCAA Super Regionals for the first time since 2007, Tennessee was sent on the road to face No. 2 national seed Michigan. The powerful Wolverines entered the best-of three series having won 36 consecutive games at the Wilpon Softball Complex in Ann Arbor, Mich., dating back to the 2009 season.

Right from the start in the series opener, UT freshman pitcher Ivy Renfroe took control from the circle, carrying a no-hitter into the seventh inning in an eventual 5-0 upset of the Maize & Blue. Junior center fielder Kelly Grieve proved the heroine at the plate by contributing three, two-out RBIs during the shocking Big Orange victory.

With sophomore hurler Cat Hosfield keeping Michigan’s bats in check over the first four innings of game two, Tennessee used the long ball to race to a commanding 4-0 advantage. Seniors Nicole Kajitani and Erinn Webb blasted back-to-back home runs in the second inning, while Webb followed two innings later with her second big fly of the contest. UM clawed back within a run at 4-3 and loaded the bases with one out in the seventh against reliever Renfroe. The 6-0 righthander struck out dangerous third baseman Maggie Viefhaus and got catcher Roya St. Clair to line sharply to Ashley Andrews at short to set off Big Orange jubilation.

For the fourth time in program history, Tennessee earned its way to Oklahoma City for the Women’s College World Series and for the fourth time in the last six seasons, UT secured a top three national finish. The Big Orange opened its stay at the event with a 9-0 (5 inn.) rout of eventual WCWS finalist No. 3 Arizona and then bested Southeastern Conference Eastern Division rival No. 9 Georgia, 7-5, to reach the semifinal round. Unfortunately, needing just one win to reach the best-of-three WCWS Championship Series, UT suffered backto-back losses to the Wildcats to finish its magical year at No. 3 in the national rankings and with a 49-15 overall record.

The nine runs marked the most scored by the Lady Vols in a WCWS contest and the victory continued UT’s perfect run through the NCAA Tournament to that point, improving to 6-0. Freshman pitcher Ivy Renfroe limited the dangerous Wildcats to just three hits in a complete game to move to 30-4 on the season and become the only Lady Vol pitcher not named Monica Abbott to win 30 games in a season and post a victory at the WCWS. Senior first baseman Erinn Webb and sophomore third baseman Jessica Spigner each knocked in two runs to lead the offense.

Four UGA pitches helped UT nab a 2-0 lead in the second frame before Webb blew things open with her third inning grand slam.

Georgia rallied late, cutting its deficit to 7-5 and bringing the potential tying run to the plate in the seventh inning. A Renfroe K and a stellar play on a bouncer to third by Jessica Spigner ended the drama as UT prevailed.

As always Tennessee enjoyed tremendous fan support at the ASA Hall of Fame Stadium in Oklahoma City, Okla. Despite temperatures that soared to as high as 105 degrees during the day, the Lady Vol fans hung in to cheer on UT through four high-profile match-ups.

Facing elimination from the WCWS, No. 3 Arizona turned the tables on No. 16 UT by downing the Big Orange by run-rule, 8-0 (5 inn.), and forcing an “if necessary” contest for a berth in the best-of-three championship series. UA pitchers Kenzie Fowler and Sarah Akamine limited the Big Orange offense to just two hits (senior catcher Tiffany Huff, freshman pinch hitter Melissa Brown), while Ivy Renfroe took the loss for UT after allowing three runs on four hits with five K’s in 2.2 innings.

A beautiful Gibson slide around the UA catcher on a bloop single by senior catcher Tiffany Huff made it 2-0 in the top of third. Unfortunately for Tennessee, Arizona’s Stacie Chambers dead-locked the score at 2-2 on a tworun bomb in the bottom of the third.

OPPONENT SEASON HISTORY SECTION IN REVIEW & RECORDS

When the annual NCAA bracket was announced, Tennessee, fresh off a thrilling SEC Tournament title run, was surprised to earn a lower-thanexpected No. 14-seed in the field of 64. UT’s reward was perhaps the toughest regional in the country as three of the top 18 teams in the RPI would battle it out in Knoxville.

In the opener against Liberty, Ivy Renfroe was dominant in the circle, firing her third career no-hitter to back a Lady Vol offense that scored eight two-out runs in an 8-0 (5 inn.) victory. Freshman Madison Shipman ended a seven-run, seventh inning outburst with a walk-off grand slam.

Despite out-hitting Oklahoma State, 9-8, UT dropped into the losers bracket by suffering a 6-1 defeat at the hands of the Cowgirls. With Tennessee forced to play again on May 21 in an attempt to avoid elimination, sophomore Lauren Gibson blasted a pair of homers to back another Ivy Renfroe masterpiece (two-hitter) as the Big Orange cruised past No. 19 Georgia Tech, 7-0.

On championship Sunday UT knew it would have to defeat OSU twice to advance to NCAA Super Regionals. The Lady Vols rallied from deficits on a pair of occasions, even grabbing a 4-3 lead in the fifth, before the Cowgirls erupted for three tallies in the sixth. Down to its last chance, Tennessee managed to plate a run in the top of the seventh via a sacrifice fly. With a runner at second and two down, Gibson ripped a single to left. Unfortunately for the Big Orange, Kelly Grieve was thrown out at the plate to end the season.

OLYMPIAN - MONICA ABBOTT GENERAL INFO SEASON PREVIEW COACHES & STAFF MEET THE TEAM OPPONENT SEASON HISTORY SECTION IN REVIEW & RECORDS

Former Tennessee Lady Vol pitcher Monica Abbott was selected to represent her country as part of the prestigious United States Softball Team at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, the People’s Republic of China. During her stay at the international competition, the Salinas, Calif., native performed superbly from the circle in helping guide Team USA to a silver medal. Her stat line was staggering: a squad-best 3-0 record, a 0.29 ERA, 32 strikeouts in just 24 innings of work while allowing the opposition to hit at just a .076 clip. The 6-3 lefthander also became the first American pitcher in Olympic history to fire a perfect game by blanking the Netherlands.

Unfortunately a shocking defeat in the championship game to world power Japan cost Team USA the gold, but Abbott made the most of the experience. The pagentry of the opening and closing ceremonies, the Olympic Village, visiting with athletes from all over the world, the heart-pounding competition. In her own words, it was Monica Abbott in the circle, a face of utter concentration as she prepares to throw a practice pitch during the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, China. something she will never forget.

One of the best parts of the Olympic experience and attending the University of Tennessee is the impressive number of fellow Lady Vols who also make the trip in various sports. Here Abbott catches up with former Tennessee basketball players Candace Parker and Kara Lawson before opening ceremonies.

Abbott made her triumphant homecoming to Lee Softball Stadium and the University of Tennessee in front of a packed house of 1,622 fans on April 12, 2008, as the hurler and the U.S. Olympic Softball Team defeated the Lady Vols, 4-2. The 6-3 lefthander fired a complete game two-hitter with 11 strikeouts. Her former team did manage a pair of solo homers to nab a 2-0 lead and led the prestigious squad into the fifth inning before succumbing.

A moment that Abbott had long dreamed about, receiving her Olympic medal at the medal ceremony at Fengtai Softball Stadium.
