TODAY’S GAME The #5/5-ranked Tennessee Lady Vols (18-2, 6-1 SEC) hit the road for the fi nal time in the month of January and travel to face a dangerous South Carolina Gamecock team (11-9, 4-4 SEC) on Sun., Jan. 31 in an SEC Network televised game at 2 p.m. in the Colonial Life Arena. In the pre-season polls, Tennessee was picked to fi nish #1 by the coaches and #2 by the media in the SEC while South Carolina was slated to fi nish #6 by the coaches and 10th by the media in league play. UT is currently fi rst in the SEC, while USC is in the 8th position. WORTH NOTING ABOUT TODAY’S GAME • Seven games ago, the two teams met in the fi rst SEC game of the year. Tennessee prevailed 79-62 in Knoxville as Angie Bjorklund dropped in 23 points and Shekinna Stricklen added 21. • In that game, UT coach Pat Summitt employed her sixth different line-up of the season playing sophomore Alyssia Brewer ahead of sophomore Glory Johnson. • Knoxville experienced an unusual weather episode as snow and icy conditions blanketed the area. Despite 10,590 tickets being sold for the Thursday night, Jan. 7 game against South Carolina, only 1,462 weather-hardy folks clicked through the turnstiles in Thompson-Boling Arena, the second fewest in the history of the building for the Lady Vols. The Thompson-Boling Arena mark for low attendance for a bad weather game was when 1,461 came out to see the Lady Vols down Mississippi State, 91-63, after an ice storm pummeled East Tennessee on Jan. 2, 1991. • Tennessee has eclipsed 100,000 fans at home (129,781) for an amazing 16th consecutive year and currently averages 12,978 fans per game in Knoxville. Conversely, the Gamecocks have played to 24,785 fans (8 games) for an average of 3,098 fans per game at home. The largest crowd South Caro-lina has played in front of this season was 4,290 fans in their home game versus #11/12 LSU on Jan. 3. Today’s attendance should be USC’s best of the year. On the road, UT has been averaging 7,044 folks per game in hostile gyms. • UT has gone from the outhouse to the penthouse in fi eld goal percentage. Last season, the Lady Vols averaged a program worst .413 from the fi eld. This season, Tennessee has fl ipped the fi eld and is averaging .465 shooting accuracy this season. • Last year, in the 11 loss season, a bright spot was the Lady Vols perfect record in Southeastern Conference games at home, 7-0. UT recorded SEC wins in Thompson-Boling Arena over Kentucky (69-64), South Carolina (68-56), Ole Miss (60-59), Georgia (73-43), Alabama (80-61), Mississippi State (82-68) and #19/21-ranked Vanderbilt (75-66). • This year, the Lady Vols are starting to redeem themselves for a dismal (program worst) 2-5 SEC road campaign last season. Tennessee managed a 76-67 victory at Arkansas on Jan. 22, 2009 and fought for an 63-56 win over Mississippi State in Starkville on Jan. 29, 2009, producing the only SEC road W’s. LADY VOLS AT A GLANCE This is the Lady Vols’ 36th season under Head Coach Pat Summitt… She starts a senior-less team for the fi rst time in her tenure... Summitt has compiled a staggering 1,023-195 overall record… Collected her record 1000th coaching win with a 73-43 decision over Georgia on Feb. 5, 2009… She passed Dean Smith (879 wins) for most NCAA collegiate basketball wins of all-time with a 75-54 victory over Purdue on Mar. 22, 2005 …Her 2006-07 and 2007-08 squads were crowned as the NCAA Champions producing the program’s seventh and eighth titles…Last season, UT fi nished with a 22-11 overall record and lost in the First Round of the 2009 NCAA Tournament. This season, UT returned 10 letterwinners and welcomed a talented three player rookie class…The 2009-10 season marked the Lady Vol debut for freshmen: #4 Kamiko Williams, a 5-11 guard from Clarksville, Tenn., #13 Taber Spani, a 6-1 forward/guard from Lee’s Summit, Mo., and #34 Faith Dupree, a 6-3 forward/center from Knoxville, Tenn. (on Nov. 23 UT announced that Dupree would sit-out this season).

All-time, the Lady Vols have registered double-digit victories in conference play an incredible 15 times. Since the 1991-92 season when SEC play expand-ed, the Lady Vols have won at least 10 games in the following years: 1992-10 wins, 1993-11 wins, 1994-11 wins, 1995-11 wins, 1998-14 wins, 1999-13 wins, 2000-13 wins, 2001-14 wins, 2002- 13 wins, 2003- 14 wins, 2004-14 wins, 2005- 13 wins, 2006-11 wins, 2007- 14 wins and 2008-13 wins.

TENNESSEE IN THE 16 GAME SEC FORMAT Tennessee started play in the new 16-game SEC league schedule this season with a win over South Carolina, 79-62, in Knoxville on Jan. 7. Previously, the SEC schedule had consisted of a 14-game schedule. The Lady Vols were picked to win the SEC by the coaches while the media had Tennessee fi nishing sec-ond behind LSU.

Only six SEC teams have ever managed a victory over the Lady Vols in Knoxville – Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, LSU and Ole Miss. Georgia has won three games on UT’s turf while Auburn, Kentucky, Ole Miss and LSU have registered two wins each and Florida one win. Georgia was the only team to defeat UT at home in the 1990s (1991 & 1996). LSU and Florida are the only SEC teams to defeat UT at home in the 21st century.

IT WAS INCREDIBLE From 1980-1997, the Lady Vols claimed a total of six SEC regular season titles in 17 years. From 1998-2004, Tennessee captured seven consecutive SEC regular season crowns producing an amazing 109-4 record. UT’s only league losses were to Vandy, Geor-gia and LSU (twice) during this stretch.

EIGHT WAS GREAT Over the years, eight Lady Vols teams have gone undefeated in SEC play: 1993, ‘94, ‘95, ‘98, 2001, ‘03, ‘04 and ‘07.

RARE SEC ROAD LOSSES FOR SUMMITT Lady Vol coach Pat Summitt’s teams rarely lose on the road in the SEC but last year was the exception with fi ve losses on the road against just two wins. Last year, the loss to Vanderbilt on Jan. 11, 2009 was the 30th SEC road loss suffered by a Summitt-coached Lady Vol team and halted a 17-game SEC road win-ning streak. Two weeks later, UT also lost, this time at #6/5 Auburn and two weeks after that #11/13 Florida defeated the Lady Vols. Add another two weeks and

another SEC road loss for UT, this time a 66-56 deci-sion a the hands of the Kentucky Wildcats and a week later it was a road loss at LSU, 63-61. This season, Georgia tagged the Lady Vols with a regular season SEC loss for the fi rst time since the Bulldogs prevailed 78-51 on Jan. 17, 2000.

STRICK HONORED Lady Vol sophomore Shekinna Stricklen was named Southeastern Conference Player of the Week and Lady Vol Athlete of the Week for the second time this season (Nov. 30-Dec. 6). Against George Washington, Stricklen notched her fourth career double double with 17 points and 10 rebounds. She was 8-of-13 from the fi eld to help Tennessee to a 93-53 win. Against #17/17 Texas on Dec. 6, Stricklen tallied her 27th career double fi gure scoring game with 14 points on 6-of-10 shooting. She also added six rebounds and fi ve as-sists against the Longhorns. For the week, Stricklen averaged 15.5 ppg, 8.0 rpg and 3.0 apg, and shot 60.9 percent from the fi eld.

STRICKLEN DOUBLES UP ACCOLADES Lady Vol sophomore Shekinna Stricklen was named Southeastern Conference Player of the Week and Lady Vol Athlete of the Week (Nov. 9-15)after leading the No. 8/9-ranked Lady Vols to a 74-65 win over the No. 7/4-ranked Baylor Lady Bears on Nov. 15. She scored 25 points, grabbed a career-best 14 re-bounds, dished out fi ve assists and tallied three steals. The game against the Lady Bears marked Stricklen’s third career double-double. Her 25 points were one off of her career-high 26 points, which were scored at No. 6/5-ranked Auburn last season.

SEC COACHES TAB LADY VOLS The SEC unveiled its sixth annual women’s basketball preseason All-SEC fi rst and second teams, Thurs., Oct. 30.In the closet vote yet, Tennessee was predicted to win the SEC regular season champion-ship over LSU by one vote. The Lady Vols were 22-11, 9-5 in the SEC last season, while LSU fi nished 19-11, 10-4 in conference play. LSU senior guard Allison Hightower was named SEC Player of the Year. Joining Hightower on the All-SEC First Team were Arkansas’ C’eira Ricketts, Georgia’s Ashley Houts and Angel Robinson, LSU’s LaSondra Barrett, Mississippi State’s Alexis Rack and Tennessee’s Angie Bjorklund and Shekinna Stricklen. Second team consists of Alli Smal-ley (AU), Porsha Phillips (UG), Victoria Dunlap (UK), Bianca Thomas (UM), Armelie Lumanu and Chanel Mokango (MSU), Glory Johnson (UT) and Merideth Marsh and Hannah Tuomi (VU).

UT PICKED NUMBER TWO BY MEDIA Tennessee was predicted to fi nish second in the SEC this season following a vote by a select panel of both SEC and national media members while LSU was picked to win. Two Lady Vol players were recognized on the preseason All-SEC Team as the media picked sophomore Shekinna Stricklen for the First Team and junior sharpshooter Angie Bjorklund for the Second Team. LSU’s Allison Hightower was

the overwhelming choice of the media for SEC Women’s Basketball Player of the Year. Joining Hightower on the All-SEC First Team were Ashley Houts and Angel Robinson (UG), Alexis Rack (MSU) and Shekinna Stricklen (UT). Second team consists of C’eira Ricketts (UArk), LaSondra Barrett (LSU), Bianca Thomas (UM), Angie Bjorklund (UT) and Merideth Marsh (VU).

THE 4-1-1 ON SOUTH CAROLINA In their last game before facing Tennessee, South Carolina sophomore La’Keisha Sutton led the Gamecocks to a 64-50 win over Ole Miss on Thurs., Jan. 28 She tossed in 13 points and dished six assists while being a defensive stopper holding the SEC’s top scorer, Bianca Thomas, un-der double digits for the fi rst time this season. As a team, Ole Miss scored 23 points below its average in SEC games. USC newcomer Valerie Nainima opened with a triple followed by Sutton and rookie Kelsey Bone nailing layups and short jumpers. Ole Miss knotted the game with back-to-back buckets, but the Gamecocks answered with a 9-2 run to put South Carolina up 20-13 midway through the half. USC held a 29-19 halftime margin. In the second stanza, the Gamecocks led by 20 points before the Rebels fashioned a 13-2 surge to pull within nine points at 47-38 with 8:22 left to play. The Rebels drew within eight at 58-50 at the 3:22 mark but the Gamecocks sealed the win at the free throw line. South Carolina shot 47.4 percent for the game, in-cluding 42.9 percent from 3-point range with Naini-ma hitting 5-of-9 from beyond the arc to fi nish with a game-high 17 points. Sutton’s 13 points was just ahead of Stephens’ 12 and Bone’s 11, who tied for team-high honors with six rebounds each.

LAST MEETING WITH USC Tennessee opened the SEC portion of the 2009-10 schedule with a 79-62 victory over the South Carolina Gamecocks on Jan. 7. The win improved UT to 41-2 all-time against SC, extended the Lady Vols’ winning streak to 37 in the series and improved Ten-nessee’s record to 26-5 in conference openers. The Gamecocks and Lady Vols went back and forth over the opening minutes and SC built a six point lead, 14-8, barely three minutes into the contest. The UT defense stepped up and held the USC offense without a fi eld goal for over fi ve and a half minutes to turn a 19-14 defi cit into a 31-20 lead with 9:28 to play before the break. UT shot above 50 percent from the fi eld in the opening stanza and used the hot shooting to build a 47-33 lead at the break. After the half, South Carolina pulled within seven, 55-48, on a pair of Jewel May free throws with 12:36 to play. The UT defense held the SC offense without a fi eld goal from the 13:39 mark of the second half with the score 53-46 to the 6:57 point and a 68-49 Lady Vol lead. The crowd of 1,462 was the sec-ond smallest at Thompson-Boling Arena due to snowy/

icy conditions blanketing Knoxville. The smallest was when 1,461 fought the ice to see the Lady Vols down Mississippi State, 91-63, on Jan. 2, 1991. While the weather outside wrecked havoc on the crowd, junior Angie Bjorklund and sophomore Shekinna Stricklen were both hot. The two combined to shoot 17-of-32 for 44 points. Bjorklund tallied 23, including fi ve three pointers and Stricklen added 21 points. In addition, Bjorklund fi nished with four boards, three assists and a steal, while Stricklen tallied six assists, two rebounds and three blocks. Sophomore Kelley Cain added eight points, fi ve boards and six blocks while classmate Glory Johnson fi nished with nine points and nine re-bounds. STALEY WAS MVP -- LADY VOLS WON THE TITLE At the 1991 NCAA Final Four in New Orleans. La., the Tennessee Lady Vols and the Virginia Cav-aliers squared off in the NCAA Championship game on March 31, at the Lakefront Arena. The Virginia point guard at the time was Dawn Staley, currently South Carolina’s head coach, who helped her team stage a furious comeback to tie the game at 60-all in regulation. Staley scored 28 points before fouling out and was named the MVP – except the ballots were counted in the fi nal three minutes during regu-lation. UT guard Dena Head also scored 28 points and led the Lady Vols in the overtime stanza to a 70-67 victory over UVA. It was the fi rst OT champi-onship game ever in NCAA women’s hoops.

FACING FORMER LADY VOLS Tennessee Coach Pat Summitt will be facing two more former players turned coaches this once again this afternoon on the South Carolina sideline. Lady Vol Olympians Nikki McCray (1991-95) and Carla McGhee (1986-90) are assistant coaches on Gamecock Coach Dawn Staley’s staff. McGhee was a teammate of Tennessee assistant coach Daedra Charles-Furlow on the 1989 Lady Vol NCAA title team. Charles-Furlow and Staley faced each other in the 1991 NCAA title game in New Orleans as both fouled out as the game went into overtime. In her fi nal collegiate game, Charles tossed in 19 points and grabbed 12 boards while Staley was the MVP with 28 points and 11 rebounds. This season, Summitt has faced a number of former Lady Vol players and staffers in the coaching ranks (including McCray and McGhee in the fi rst meeting between USC and UT on Jan. 7, 2010): Nikki Caldwell and Tasha Butts (UCLA), Tanya Haave and Abby Conk-lin (San Francisco), Angel Elderkin (Virginia), Mickie DeMoss (Texas), and will meet Matthew Mitchell, Kyra Elzy and Shalon Pillow (Kentucky).

USC SERIES Tennessee leads the series with South Carolina, 41-2. The UT Media Relations Of-fi ce recognizes all recorded games played with newspaper accounts and/or box scores. The series with USC indicates two wins and a loss pre-dating the Pat Summitt years yielding a 41-2 record. The Summitt era has only found UT on the losing end to the Gamecocks once -- Jan. 23, 1980 in Columbia, 56-52. It happened when the Carolina Pep Band positioned itself behind the UT bench and played its amplifi ed drums, electric guitars, etc. for all 40 minutes of the game. UT huddles, held practically at the free throw line, did little good. Shortly thereafter, a ban on bands playing during the game and disallowing elec-tronic amplifi cation, was instituted by the AIAW.

HEADING INTO THE GAME… UT and USC meet today for the 44th time in the series. The Lady Vols have recorded 37 consecutive victories over the Gamecocks dating back to the 1979-80 season when UT associate head coach Holly Warlick was the starting point guard. Warlick was quarterbacking the team the only time UT lost to USC in the Summitt Era. The day after the loss, the Lady Vol players wore their game uniforms in practice -- since (then) Coach Pat Head said her team “had only played for about 20 minutes in them.”

SUMMITT VS. STALEY Hall of Famers Pat Summitt and Dawn Staley have met twice before when Staley was head coach at Temple. Her Owls were 0-2 vs. Tennessee. The #1-ranked Lady Vols narrowly won in Knoxville, 52-48, in 2004, and then took a 75-50 win in Philadel-phia in 2005.

McCRAY TO BE LADY VOL “GREAT” AT SECsSouth Carolina assistant coach and former

Lady Vol All-American and two-time Olympian (1996 & 2000) Nikki McCray will be honored at the 2010 Southeastern Conference Women’s Basketball Tour-nament, Mar. 4-7, as “The Great” from Tennessee. Each year at the SEC Tournament, a female athlete “great” is recognized from each university. McCray, a 5’11” guard from Collierville, Tenn., wore number 23 and starred for the Lady Vols from 1991-95. She was a two-time SEC Player of the Year (1994 and 1995). McCray played in 127 games and started 101, she turned in 1,572 points, 671 rebounds, 289 steals and 247 assists. Coach Nikki will have to juggle her schedule at the Duluth, Ga., Tournament being honored as a “great” and helping to coach South Carolina in the four-day affair. Other “greats” being honored: Alabama (An-dree’ Pickens Houston, Gymnastics, 1999-2002); Arkansas (Shameka Christon, Basketball, 2000-04); Auburn (Cicely “CC” Hayden, Basketball, 1990-92); Florida (Bridget Pettis, Basketball, 1991-93); Geor-gia (Lady Hardmon Groomes, Basketball, 1988-92); Kentucky (Jocelyn Mills Lyons, Basketball, 1990-93); LSU (Seimone Augustus, Basketball, 2002-06); Ole Miss (Peggy Gillom-Granderson, Basketball, 1977-80); Mississippi State (LaToya Thomas, Basketball, 2000-03); South Carolina (Ashley Edlund Heidtke, Volleyball, 1995-99); Tennessee (Nikki McCray, Basketball, 1991-95) and Vanderbilt (Chantelle An-derson, Basketball, 2000-03).

FIRST TIMERSThis will mark the fi rst trip for eight of UT’s

10 active players to the Colonial Life Arena on the South Carolina campus. Tennessee’s last trip to Columbia was on Jan. 13, 2008 when Candace Parker and Company dropped a 71-48 loss on the Gamecocks and held them to 14 fi rst half points. Then-rookie Angie Bjorklund started in the game and went 4-12 from the fi eld, 2-8 on three-pointers, 0-0 on free throws, scored 10 points and grabbed fi ve rebounds. Fellow frosh Sydney Smallbone (two points, two rebounds, an assist and steal) and Vicki Baugh (fi ve points and four rebounds) also saw considerable playing time in the lopsided win in front of a season high 7,841 spectators.

2009-10 LINE-UP COMBINATIONS During the 2009-10 season, Tennessee has used nine starting lineups --Games Rec.

THE LINE-UP CAROUSEL Today against South Carolina, Tennessee coach Pat Summitt is expected to stay with her ninth differ-ent line-up of the season with sophomore Shekinna Stricklen as the only common denominator starter from all 20 games.

Last year, in the disappointing 22-11 campaign, Summitt tried 12 different line-up combinations with no “common denominator” players to start in all 33 games. In the two previous NCAA title years, UT uti-lized fi ve different line-ups in 2008 and only four line-ups in 2007. Summitt changed the starters seven times in 2006 and a whopping 10 times in 2005. In that 2004-05 fruit-basket turnover line-up, there was no common denominator player for the fi rst time in fi ve years, either.

LADY VOLS ON TV A record 27 of 29 Lady Vol regular season games are slated for television this season airing on ESPN2 (5 games), ESPNU (5), FSN/FSS and SportSouth (9), CSS (4), SEC Network (3) and My-NetworkTV (1). Upcoming TV games include: at South Carolina (SEC Network), Arkansas (FSN) and Vanderbilt (ESPN2) . The Lady Vols are 16-2 on TV this season. In the 2007-08 season, UT had a school record 36 total TV appearances.

WARLICK IS THIRD LONGEST TENUREDUT associate head coach Holly Warlick is

the third most-tenured assistant coach in women’s collegiate basketball according to a recent survey. Warlick has been on the Lady Vol sidelines for 25 years as a Pat Summitt staffer and ranks behind An-nette Rocheleau of Montana (29 years) and Carol Peschel of UNC Greensboro with 26 seasons. War-lick is joined by Connecticut’s Chris Dailey and Stan-ford’s Amy Tucker in the silver anniversary club. The survey found that a dozen staffers had been at their institution as an assistant for over 20 years. Warlick also spent four seasons as a Lady Vol All-American and Olympian from 1976-80.

WELCOME BACK Tennessee’s backcourt duo of Angie Bjorklund and Shekinna Stricklen started the 2010 portion of the schedule in bang-bang fashion against #14/15 Oklahoma and South Carolina. Bjorklund dropped in 25 and 24 respectively, while Stricklen added a triple-double against the Sooners (17 points, 13 rebounds, 12 assists) and tossed in 21 points and dished six helpers against the Gamecocks. Since the Carolina game, and SEC play, the pair struggled for fi ve games (at Mississippi St., at Florida, vs. #22 Vanderbilt, at #8 Georgia, at #18/19 LSU) before having a breakout game against Auburn on Jan. 28. Bjorklund scored 20 points on six treys and Stricklen added 17 solid points.

LYSSI WAS MONEY AT LSU Sophomore post Alyssia (Lyssi) Brewer was the AutoZone Lady Vol Player of the Game for her performance against LSU on Jan. 24. The Sapulpa, Oklahoma native led Tennessee in scoring with 14 points and chipped in seven rebounds in her fourth career start.

SPANI PROBABLE Lady Vol rookie Taber Spani has been dealing with a painful bout of “turf toe” lately and her playing time has shrunk. A starter of 16 games, she has only played a total of 20 minutes in the last three games and scored two points. She has been both-ered off-and-on since this summer’s USA Basketball stint. Before it started acting up, she was tossing in over eight points a game and grabbing almost fi ve rebounds.

IF UT DOESN’T IMPROVE...The Lady Vols have been woeful at the char-

ity stripe in four SEC games hitting just 64.8 per-cent. Glory Johnson and Kelley Cain have made more than 20 trips to the line in these games and are shooting 57.1 and 60.0 percent, respectively. Tennessee is also typically known for generating steals... the theft count is at just 6.1 per SEC game.

INSIDE - OUTTennessee has staked a claim in the paint this

season behind 6’6” redshirt sophomore Kelley Cain. The Lady Vols failed to dominate the paint in just two games, Stanford and South Carolina. In the con-test against the Cardinal, SU scored 26 paint points to the Lady Vols’ 20. Versus South Carolina in the SEC opener, the Gamecocks outscored UT, 28-26.UT scored a season high 54 points in the paint ver-sus George Washington and held San Francisco to just two points in the paint. This season, UT aver-ages 33.6 ppg in the paint out of a total of 75.5 ppg overall.

BJORKLUND MOVING THE CHAINS Tennessee junior sharpshooter Angie Bjork-lund has climbed into sole possession of third place on the Tennessee three-point career charts. She has 195 made treys for her career moving her ahead of Brittany Jackson in fourth with 161...Kara Lawson in second with 256 and Shanna Zolman leading the pack with 266.

ANGIE B LOOKING TOWARD 1,000 POINTS Lady Vol junior Angie Bjorklund is now just 36 points away from 1,000 career points. She scored 318 as a rookie and 344 as a sophomore. This sea-son, she has 302 to date for a career total of 964. She will become the 34th all-time player to reach the 1,000 point club.

SHE SAYS DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS The Lady Vols were challenged to turn up the defensive intensity against a traditionally good shooting Vanderbilt team. Going into the Vandy game on Jan. 17, only one opponent had managed to shoot better than 40 percent from the fi eld against UT -- Oklahoma (.446). Vanderbilt joined the list by ringing the Lady Vols up for a .429 shooting day in-cluding .435 from three-point land. UT ranks second in the SEC (behind Georgia) and eighth in the nation in fi eld goal defense allow-ing the opposition just 34.1 percent accuracy from the fi eld.

GIVE THE ZONE CREDIT Tennessee, not known for playing much (if barely any) zone defense, has become a pretty good zone defender this season. UT’s length, start-ing with the 82” wingspan of Kelley Cain, and talk-ing their action has made the Lady Vol zone pretty active. At LSU, the Lady Tigers managed to hit just 26% (14-53) from the fi eld. Despite Georgia win-ning, the Lady Bulldogs managed 16-44 from the fi eld for 36%.

LEADS THE SWAT TEAM Lady Vol sophomore Kelley Cain climbed into the Lady Vol record books for career blocks. With four swats against LSU, she passed former 6’6” Lady Vol Vonda Ward for 10th place all-time in the annals in blocked shots. Cain had 49 blocks in 27

Game Notes • Tennessee vs. South Carolina • Jan. 31, 2010games last season and has recorded 53 in 19 games this season. Currently, she ranks in 9th place with 103 all-time. Candace Parker is the Lady Vol career leader in blocks with 275 in three seasons.

RANKED TIDBITS Tennessee is 6-2 against ranked opponents this season in 20 total games played. The Lady Vols opened the season with a 74-65 win over #7/4-ranked Baylor... took a 77-63 win on the road at #12/17-ranked Virginia, knocked off #17-ranked Texas, 78-58, lost to #2-ranked Stanford, 67-52, defeated #14/15-ranked Oklahoma, 96-75, turned back #nr/22-ranked Vanderbilt, lost at #8 Georgia on Jan. 21 in Athens... rebounded with a 55-43 victory at #18/19 LSU on Jan. 24.

SEVEN TEAMS HAVE DOUBLE-DIGIT WINS When UT coach Pat Summitt claimed her 1,000th career win last season, it was only fi tting that she earn the win over her toughest coaching rival -- Georgia’s Andy Landers. Summitt and Landers fi rst started squaring off in preseason exhibition games when Landers was the coach at nearby Roane State Community College in Harriman, Tenn. Summitt and her Lady Vols have a number of great rivalries but none can compare with the success of Landers and his Lady Bulldogs against UT. Only seven programs have ever registered double-digit wins over Tennes-see -- Louisiana Tech 17, Georgia 15, Connecticut 13, LSU, Texas and Tennessee Tech 12 and Auburn 10. Landers has been onboard at Georgia for all 15 wins and leads the pack of winning coaches in these games. UConn’s Geno Auriemma has 13 wins over UT; as head coach Leon Barmore had 12 at La Tech (also 5 as co-head coach); Jody Conradt claimed 11 wins over the Lady Vols while at Texas and Mary Nell Meadors grabbed 10 wins at Tennessee Tech.

TURNOVERS COST UT VS. GEORGIA Coach Pat Summitt had been warning her team about living on the edge. Georgia fi nally capi-talized on UT’s miscues in their 53-50 win in Athens on Jan. 21. The Lady Vols committed 23 miscues which led to 21 Georgia points. Almost one-half of their game total of 53 points.

MORE OINTMENT FOR THE TURNOVER BITE Heading into the Florida game, it was pointed out that the Lady Vols needed to avoid turnovers mentioning that last year the turnover bug bit Tennes-see both in Gainesville (during the regular season) and in North Little Rock (in the SEC Tournament). Florida scored 45 points off of 42 UT miscues last year. It was also pointed out that there was good news heading into the game at Gainesville... the Lady Vol starters had just three turnovers (all in the fi rst half) in the previous game against Mississippi State on Jan. 10. UT then proceeded to commit a season high 25 turnovers on Jan. 14 in Gainesville and almost lost the game.

COSTLY T FOR TENNESSEE Redshirt sophomore center Kelley Cain was called for her fourth foul and then given a technical (on the same call) for her fi fth foul against Georgia with 4:13 left in the game and UT holding a 43-42 lead on Jan. 21. Cain related to Coach Pat Summitt she did not use inappropriate language in receiving the technical. In 1,218 games coached by Summitt since 1974, a grand total of 46 technical fouls have been whistled against Tennessee with 26 techs at-tributed to 18 Lady Vol players (out of 156 all-time).

CAIN’S MUTINYRedshirt sophomore Kelley Cain earned

“game warrior” kudos in the win at Florida. The 6-6

paint presence went to the deck with a hip contusion late in the fi rst half but battled back down the stretch and was a key to UT’s win. Cain tossed in a career high 17 points and grabbed 10 rebounds against the Lady Gators. She tallied her 16th career double digit scoring effort her fi fth career double digit rebounding contest and notched her third career double double.

100,000 FANS... AGAIN The Lady Vols have eclipsed 100,000 fans at home games for the last 16 consecutive years. A total of 129,781 folks have attended 10 games at home this season for an average of 12,978. A sea-son high 16,645 showed up for the Vanderbilt game on Jan. 17.

LEADING AT THE BREAK The Lady Vols have led at halftime in 16 of 20 games this season. The Lady Vols trailed 24-26 after the opening 20 minutes against Baylor but prevailed 74-65. Nikki Caldwell’s UCLA Bruins snagged a 27-25 halftime lead but were outscored by the Lady Vols 36-20 in the second stanza. The only game Tennes-see has lost while trailing at the half was to Stanford. The Cardinal grabbed a 30-18 halftime lead and took a 67-52 win over the Lady Vols. Tennessee was tied at 30 with Georgia on Jan. 24 in the 53-50 loss. On average, UT holds a 36.7 to 26.8 halftime lead. The Lady Vols have outscored the opposition 38.2 to 29.4 in the second stanza.

TAKE PRIDE IN BOARD PLAY Through 20 games, Tennessee has been out-rebounded only once -- by Stanford, 44-34. Overall, the Lady Vols are doing a better job on the boards this season holding an +9.0 rebounding advantage, 43.1 to 34.1.

STEPHANIE GLANCE SUBS IN FOR COACH D Lady Vol assistant basketball coach and re-cruiting coordinator Daedra Charles-Furlow, affec-tionately known as “Coach D,” announced on Dec. 1 that she is dealing with medical issues. In her sideline coaching and recruiting ab-sence, basketball staffer Stephanie Glance was activated to both coach and recruiter when Charles-Furlow was unable to make the pre-Christmas trip to the West Coast. “I am dealing with some personal medical is-sues at this time,” said Charles-Furlow. “It is pos-sible that there may be times when I am unable to travel. For that reason, I decided to make this an-nouncement since it will affect my duties as recruit-ing coordinator.” A former Lady Vol Olympian and All-American, Charles-Furlow joined the Lady Vol staff in May 2008 replacing Nikki Caldwell who ac-cepted the head coaching position at UCLA. “Dae-dra’s health and well-being is our fi rst concern,” said head coach Pat Summitt. “During the next several months she needs to be focusing on her health. For that reason, I will be designating my special assis-tant, Stephanie Glance, to fi ll this temporary role.”

BAUGH HAD SURGERY Jenny Moshak, University of Tennessee As-sociate Athletics Director for Sports Medicine, an-nounced on Jan. 8, 2010, that Lady Vol basketball junior forward Vicki Baugh will sit out this season. “Drs. Greg Mathien and Russell Betcher, UT team orthopaedists, performed surgery on Vicki’s left knee this afternoon at UT Medical Center,” said Moshak. “The surgery addressed a meniscus tear and a par-tial medial meniscectomy was performed.” Baugh had been rehabbing her left knee since undergoing a second anterior cruciate ligament surgery on Feb. 24, 2009 and had hoped to return this season. Ac-cording to Moshak, Baugh’s surgery went well today and she will begin rehabilitation of the knee immedi-

Game Notes • Tennessee vs. South Carolina • Jan. 31, 2010ately. Typical recovery generally ranges four to six weeks. “Vicki had been making solid progress up until early December when she felt her knee move awkwardly,” said Moshak. “She began to experi-ence swelling and diagnostic testing revealed me-niscal damage which was repaired today. The good news, in the words of her doctors, is that the ACL looks pristine. That is outstanding!” said Moshak.

On Feb. 2, 2009, the 6-4 forward from Sacra-mento, Cal., re-injured her ACL in an 80-70 loss at #2-ranked Oklahoma. The injury occurred during the second half as Baugh was helping her Lady Vol team rally against the Sooners. Dr. Greg Mathien diagnosed the ACL tear on Feb. 3, 2009 and Drs. Mathien and Betcher performed surgery on Feb. 24, 2009, to address the ACL revision and repaired a medial meniscus tear of her knee.

HOW BOUT SHEKINNA STRICKLEN! After crashing to the fl oor, with what looked like a serious injury, after playing just two minutes and not returning to the Old Dominion game Shekin-na Stricklen returned the very next game to have a night career . On Jan. 3, 2010 versus #14/15-Okla-homa, the Lady Vol sophomore tallied Tennes-see’s second ever triple-double with 17 points, 13 rebounds and 12 assists. The only other previous triple-double in history was 25-years ago when se-nior All-America Shelia Collins recorded 18 points, 10 rebounds and 10 steals in an incredible perfor-mance at Florida State on Feb. 8, 1985. Stricklen started out slow in the fi rst half and earned a three-minute stint on the bench next to coach Pat Sum-mitt who told her she looked like she was “asleep” to start the game. By halftime, Strick had turned in nine points, seven rebounds and seven assists in 17 minutes. She achieved her triple-double with 8:58 to go in the game grabbing her 10th rebound on the night.

ON BREAK The University of Tennessee was offi cially on holiday break following the conclusion of fi nal ex-ams on Dec. 10. Spring semester classes resumed on January 13, 2010.

Tennessee’s McDonald’s All-Americans: Vicki Baugh, Angie Bjorklund, Alyssia Brewer, Kelley Cain, Amber Gray, Glory Johnson, Alicia Manning, Shekinna Stricklen and Taber Spani.

A LOOK AT ATTENDANCE The Tennessee Lady Vols staying power with the home fans is evidenced by the huge numbers who have turned out for games in Knoxville since 1990. Tennessee has won the attendance chal-lenge 14 out of the last 20 years.

LADY VOL STREAKS The Lady Vols last loss at home was against Duke, 62-54, on Feb. 16, 2009, since then UT has won 12 home games. The last time UT lost on the road was on Jan. 21, 2010 at Georgia, since then, UT has won one road game. The last time the Lady Vols lost on a neutral court was against Ball State, 71-55, in the 2009 NCAA First Round game on Mar.

22, 2009. Since that time, UT is 2-0 on a neutral court.

THOMPSON-BOLING ARENA • WELCOME TO “THE SUMMITT”

The playing court in the Thompson-Boling Arena on the University of Tennessee campus donned a new look for the 2005-06 season. After Lady Vol coach Pat Summitt passed Dean Smith for most NCAA collegiate basketball wins of all-time with a 75-54 win over Purdue on Mar. 22, 2005, UT named the TBA court, “The Summitt.” The fl oor had a complete overhaul with permanent logos of both the Lady Vols and Vols painted directly in front of the scorer’s table; the free throw lanes were painted or-ange with “SEC” reversed out; the giant jump circle/mid-court TENNESSEE was given a new brighter color scheme, and “The Summitt,” Coach Summitt’s actual signature adorns the sidelines opposite the team benches.

300 WINS IN TBA Tennessee recorded its 300th win in Thomp-son-Boling Arena when the Lady Vols defeated the Stanford Cardinal, 79-69 OT on Dec. 21, 2008. Seven years earlier, UT grabbed its 200th TBA win over the University of Southern California on Nov. 18, 2001, 106-66. UT has now amassed a 317-20 (.942) record since the Orange and White moved into the Thompson-Boling Arena to start the 1987-88 season 22-years ago. Along the way, the Lady Vols have produced nine fl awless home records in 1988-89 (15-0), 1991-92 (14-0), 1992-93 (13-0), 1993-94 (15-0), 1994-95 (15-0), 1997-98 (16-0), 1998-99 (14-0), 2000-01 (15-0) and 2002-03 (16-0). UT also registered an NCAA record 69-game home court-winning streak from Feb. 1, 1991 thru Jan. 2, 1996.

JUST 20 LOSSES The Tennessee Lady Vols rarely lose at home. In fact, since moving to the Thompson-Boling Arena for the 1987-88 campaign, UT has lost two games in one season just seven times. UT lost two games in TBA during the inaugural 1987-88 cam-paign, 1996-97, 1999-00, 2001-02, 2003-04, 2005-06 and 2008-09 seasons. The 20 all-time losses at TBA have come at the hands of just 10 teams: Virginia (2008), Florida (2006), LSU (2008, 2006), Duke (2009, 2007, 2004), Connecticut (2004, 2002, 2000, 1996), Louisiana Tech (1999, 1989), Georgia (1996, 1991), Texas (2003, 2002, 1987), Stanford (1996) and Auburn (1988).

HOME SWEET HOME -- OVER 400 HOME WINS The victory over Georgia on Jan. 31, 2005, was the Lady Vols 400th home win since Pat Sum-mitt took over as head coach in 1974. Summitt has won 91.4 percent of all home games in 36 years producing a 467-45 overall record. Home losses (in the Summitt era) include: six in Alumni Gym from 1974-76; 19 in Stokely Athletics Center from 1976-87; and 20 in Thompson-Boling Arena.

100 POINT GAMES Since 1974, the Lady Vols have gone over the century mark 70 times. The 1987-88 team hit triple digits in seven games to lead the NCAA.

IN OVERTIME Tennessee is 27-17 all-time in overtime games. The most OT games in a year was tied in 2003-04 with four as the Lady Vols went 3-1 in overtime losing to Georgia, 68-66, and defeating Auburn, 68-61, DePaul, 96-89, and Stanford, 70-66.

Game Notes • Tennessee vs. South Carolina • Jan. 31, 2010and LSU, 100-99. UT’s 22 points in the OT against Florida (2-3-05), was the most ever scored by the Lady Vols in a single overtime. UT’s most recent OT affair was a 79-69 win over Stanford on Dec. 21, 2008, at home.

OVER 500 GAMES VS. RANKED Tennessee’s game versus #12 Georgia on Feb. 16, 2006 was the Lady Vols’ 500th all-time ver-sus a ranked team since the inception of the polls in 1976. UT is an amazing 419-157 (.725) versus ranked teams. The 2008-09 Lady Vols were a dismal 4-8 versus ranked teams.

LADY VOLS MAKE SPORTS ILLUSTRATED LIST Sports Illustrated announced the 25 best sports franchises from the decade of the 2000s and ranked the 25 best overall teams from the four major pro-fessional sports -- NFL, NBA, MLB and the NHL -- plus college football and men’s and women’s col-lege basketball. The Los Angeles Lakers took the top spot on the list while the Tennessee Lady Vols -- who won two NCAA basketball titles - were in 24th place. Connecticut women’s basketball earned the third slot after winning fi ve NCAA titles during the decade. The Lady Vols and the Huskies were the only women’s teams to make the list.

Join-ing the eight-time NCAA Champions are signees Lauren Avant, a 5’9”, guard from Memphis, Tenn., (The Lausanne Collegiate School) and Meighan Simmons, a 5’9” guard from Byron P. Steele High School in Cibolo, Texas.

UNBROKEN CIRCLE The 2009-10 Lady Vols are taking their “Circle of Infl uence” media guide them into a postgame center court jump circle huddle with their oppo-nents. Before the game with Baylor, UT junior Angie Bjorklund invited the Lady Bears to join them for a postgame prayer. Each opponent has followed suit meeting at center court after the game for the mo-ment of thanks.

BJORKLUND IS A WOODEN NOMINEE Lady Vol junior sharpshooter Angie Bjorklund is a preseason candidate for the John R. Wooden Award. She joins the initial list of student athletes who, based on last year’s individual performance and team records, are the frontrunners for college basketball’s most prestigious honor. This season, the Lady Vols will face a number of Wooden nomi-nees including: Jayne Appel and Jeanette Pohlen (Stanford), Alysha Clark (Middle Tennessee), Al-lison Hightower (LSU), Ashley Houts (Georgia), Danielle Robinson (Oklahoma) and Monica Wright (Virginia). In late December, the Wooden Award Committee will release the Midseason Top 20 list, followed in March by the National Ballot, consisting of approximately 15 top players who have proven to their universities that they are also making progress toward graduation and maintaining a cumulative 2.0 GPA. The Women’s Wooden Award All-American Team will be announced the week of the “Elite Eight” round during the NCAA Tournament. The 34th annu-al Wooden Award ceremony, which will include the announcement of the Men’s and Women’s Wooden Award, and the presentation of the Wooden Award All-American Teams and the Legends of Coaching Award, will take place the weekend of April 9-11, 2010.

STRICKLEN IS ON THE NAISMITH LIST Lady Vol sophomore Shekinna Stricklen has been named to the Naismith Player of the Year “watch list.” The watch list was compiled by the At-lanta Tipoff Club’s Board of Selectors, which based its criteria on player performances from the previous year and expectations for the 2009-10 college bas-ketball season. The Naismith Trophy presented by AT&T will be awarded at the 2010 NCAA Women’s Final Four in San Antonio, Texas.

GET THIS... It’s a fact that Tennessee has produced some of the greatest players ever in women’s collegiate basketball. It’s a little known fact that there has only been one double-fi gure rebounder in the history of

2009-10 LADY VOL GAME NOTES ALMANACSHE LOVED CAMP SUMMITT UT coach Pat Summitt loved the court time she had with her team over the holiday break. It was time for re-emphasizing fundamentals and fi ne-tuning before conference cranked up. In the fi rst 15 games, Sum-mitt has seen a number of positives from her senior-less team: only one opponent has shot 40% or better against the 2009-10 Lady Vols -- Oklahoma at .446 in a 21 point loss... the Lady Vols bounced back from the tough loss at Stanford and its worst shooting night (.328) to record its fourth 50% plus shooting night on the year tossing in .531 versus San Francisco... That performance was followed by the seventh best shoot-ing night in Lady Vol history as UT canned 67.2 percent from the fi eld against Old Dominion... and followed that up with a 51.3% effort against Oklahoma for the sixth game of 50% or better shooting on the season... Last year, the 2008-09 Lady Vols turned in the worst fi eld goal percentage in Tennessee history at 41.3%VERSUS 2009 FINAL FOUR TEAMS Oklahoma was the third of the four 2009 NCAA Final Four teams that the Lady Vols faced this season -- UT defeated Louisville, 88-56 on Dec. 16, lost at #2-ranked Stanford, 67-52, on Dec. 19 and defeated #14/15 Oklahoma, 96-75 on Jan. 3. IS THERE A BIG 12 DIVISION FOR US? This season, Tennessee might qualify for divi-sional play in the Big 12. The Lady Vols defeated four opponents from that conference: #7/4 Baylor in Knox-ville (74-65), knocked off Texas Tech, 91-53, in San Antonio and defeated #17 Texas, 78-58, and #14/15 Oklahoma, 96-75 in Knoxville. The Lady Vols fi nished 4-0 in the Big 12 Conference play this season.TENNESSEE’S FIRST OKIE When 6-3 sophomore forward Alyssia Brewer (Sapulpa, OK/Sapulpa H.S.) signed with the Lady Vols, it marked Tennessee’s fi rst player from the state of Oklahoma. This season, the rangy lefty is averaging 7.9 ppg and 4.6 rpg while shooting a blistering 60.9% from the fi eld (39-64).STATISTICALLY VS. THE BIG 12 IN 2009-10 In three wins over Big 12 teams this season (Baylor, 74-65 win; Texas Tech, 91-53 win and Texas, a 78-58 win), the Lady Vols have averaged a +22.3 margin of victory (81.0-58.7 ppg) over these schools. Additionally, UT has cashed in on 46.7% of its fi eld goals while holding Big 12 opponents to just 32.4%. Fouls have been nearly even, 57 for Tennessee and 58 for Big 12 opponents but the dozen school confer-ence has cashed in at the charity stripe canning 53-73 (.726) free throws while the Lady Vols have managed just 41-59 (.695). STAFFERS HAVE -- NEVER A FORMER PLAYER ...have dropped an “L” on Coach Pat Summitt and the Lady Vols. Former Tennessee player and assistant coach Nikki Caldwell looked like her UCLA Bruins might be the fi rst to pull the upset on Nov. 28 in Knox-ville. The Bruins grabbed a 10-point fi rst half lead and looked very confi dent heading into the locker room leading 27-25 at the break. In the Tennessee locker room, Summitt was imploring her team for no more “negative history.” Referring back to last season when her young Lady Vols were responsible for a number of “negative history fi rsts.” Former Lady Vol Tanya Haave got the next crack at beating the old ball coach but her San Francisco Dons were defeated by UT, 89-34. The roll call goes like this: Sylvia Hatchell, Sharon Fanning, Jane Albright, Lea Henry, Nancy Darsch, Trish Roberts, Mickie DeMoss, Matthew Mitchell, Kellie Jolly Harper and Tanya Haave. UT coach Pat Summitt has faced many former players and assistant coaches in a variety of games thru the years but no former Lady Vol player has ever knocked off her mentor. Former assistant Carolyn Peck was the fi rst to record a victory over her former boss. While at Purdue, Peck handed Summitt a 78-68 loss on Nov.15, 1998 in the State Farm Tip-Off Classic in West Lafayette, Ind. The defeat snapped UT’s 46-game consecutive winning streak (that was second only to Louisiana Tech’s NCAA all-time 54-game winning streak). Former assistants Mick-ie DeMoss and last year Matthew Mitchell turned the trick as a head coaches at Kentucky, (DeMoss 66-63, on Jan. 26, 2006 and Mitchell 66-56 on Feb. 19, 2009), and Sylvia Hatchell managed to pull off the feat twice at North Carolina (75-63 on Mar. 28, 2006 and 70-57,

Dec. 3, 2006). Former Lady Vol players turned head coaches have been less successful. Former Lady Vol All-America Patricia Roberts tried while head coach at Maine (0-2, lost 77-64 on Dec. 13, 1990 and 86-71 on Nov. 24, 1991). Former Lady Vol Olympian and point guard Lea Henry faced Summitt in the NCAA Tourna-ment with her Georgia State team and lost 98-68 on Mar. 15, 2002. Next to try to knock off Summitt was Kellie Jolly Harper with her Western Carolina team on Mar. 20, 2005. The Lady Catamounts lost 94-43. The most recent former Lady Vol hoopsters to take on their former coach: UT All-American and San Francisco head coach Tanya Haave. “LaMachine’s” Dons fell to UT on Nov. 15, 2008, 68-39. A little over a week later, Harper’s WCU team fell to Summitt’s Lady Vols, 83-56, on Nov. 25, 2008. The next player to try the knock-off - -San Francisco’s Tanya Haave.RAISING CAIN UT redshirt sophomore center Kelley Cain returned to the starting line-up against Rutgers. Cain suffered a concussion against UCLA on Nov. 28 and was held out of the George Washington game on Dec. 1. Cain was cleared to play against #17-ranked Texas on Dec. 6 and came off the bench to score 12 points (6-6 FG), grab six boards and swat away four shots. She fol-lowed that up with a nine point, nine rebound and six blocked shot performance against Rutgers. SOLID SHOWING AGAINST THE HORNS Against #17-ranked Texas, Tennessee used an 8-0 run to build an 11-5 lead (at 14:55) and then put togeth-er a 12-0 run over 4:55 to take a 31-18 lead with 5:29 to play in the fi rst half. UT’s largest defi cit of the fi rst half was two at 18:23; it’s largest lead was 17 at 0:27. Tennessee led at the half for the fi fth time this season. In those games, UT is 5-0. Texas went without a point from the 3:12 mark of the fi rst half to the 16:29 point of the second, allowing Tennessee a 14-0 run to build a 48-24 lead. Tennessee outrebounded Texas 42-41; UT has led on the boards in all seven gamesNOGGIN KNOCKERS The Lady Vols only had nine players available to play against George Washington on Dec. 1. Ten-nessee starting sophomore pivot Kelley Cain missed the game with George Washington due to a concus-sion suffered in the UCLA game after dropping in eight points and grabbing 11 rebounds against the Bruins. Cain also missed some time last season after suffering a concussion in practice. She has started fi ve games this season and averages 8.4 ppg and 8.6 rpg.CALLING ALL POSTS The Lady Vols went into the game with George Washington on Dec. 1 pretty thin in the post. Side-lined were four post players -- 6’1” Amber Gray and 6’3” Faith Dupree for the season; 6’4” Vicki Baugh who is coming back from a torn ACL and 6’6” Kelley Cain who will miss due to a concussion. That left 6’1” rookie Taber Spani and a pair of 6’3” sophomores in Glory Johnson and Alyssia Brewer to shore up the middle for the Lady Vols. SAPULPA WAS IN THE HOUSE Sophomore post Alyssia Brewer of Sapulpa, Oklahoma, showed up in a big way against George Washington on Dec. 1. UT was without starting center Kelley Cain who was being held out due to a concus-sion suffered in the UCLA game. The 6’3” Brewer came in the fi rst half at the 14:49 mark and scored four quick layups and a free throw in eight minutes to record nine points in the opening stanza. In the second half, she was inserted at the 14:13 mark and played the rest of the game totaling 14 second stanza points for a ca-reer high 23 points (11-15 FG) to go along with seven rebounds.DUPREE DEALS WITH BACK PROBLEMS University of Tennessee Lady Vol Head Basket-ball Coach Pat Summitt announced on Nov. 23, 2009, that freshman center Faith Dupree will be sidelined this season. “Faith has been experiencing recurrent lower back pain,” explained Summitt. “Our medical staff (Director of Sports Medicine Jenny Moshak, team orthopaedist Dr. Greg Mathien and team physician Dr. Becky Morgan) felt that the best course of ac-tion was to spend this season treating her. “We are disappointed for Faith and what she means to our team,” said Summitt. “She worked really hard in the preseason drills and conditioning but now she needs

time to focus on getting her back healthy.” Moshak, University of Tennessee Associate Athletics Director for Sports Medicine, has been treating Dupree for back pain for several weeks. “We are going to use this year to explore treatment options and provide aggressive rehabilitation,” said Moshak. Dupree, a 6-3 freshman from Knoxville, Tenn., appeared in the fi rst two games of the season. Against #7/4-ranked Baylor she logged four minutes and grabbed a rebound. In San Antonio at the ESPNU Road to the Championship, she played 18 minutes and tossed in fi ve points, grabbed six re-bounds and had three assists in 18 minutes against Texas Tech. Tennessee’s roster now drops to 11 ac-tive players for the 2009-10 season. Also sitting out this year, following both shoulder and brain surgery, is 6-1 sophomore forward Amber Gray of West Chester, Ohio.HOME SWEET HOME Much is made of the Lady Vols palatial locker room in Thompson-Boling Arena. The team lost the right to use the locker room following back-to-back losses last season to #7/10-ranked Duke (Feb. 16, 62-54) and Kentucky (Feb. 19, 66-56). Following the Lady Vols win over at #12/17-ranked Virginia on Nov. 22, 2009, Coach Pat Summitt announced in the post game talk to the team that they had earned their locker room back to thunderous cheers from the team.CROWDS A PLENTY Playing in front of huge crowds is nothing new to Tennessee Lady Vol basketball but the week of Nov. 22-28 was one to note. In three games (two on the road), the Lady Vols played in front of a total of 37,873 fans (an average of 12,624 per game) – including two record-breaking crowds on the road. On Nov. 25 at Middle Tennessee State, a new record crowd of 11,802 was on hand for the Thanksgiving eve clash. MTSU’s Murphy Center’s capacity is listed at 11,520. On Nov. 22 at Virginia, a new record crowd of 11,895 crammed the stands on “Hotdog Night” at the John Paul Jones Arena. Tennessee had one game at home during that span against UCLA on Nov. 28 where 14,176 turned out for a matinee contest. Last season, Tennessee played in front of 17 crowds of 10,000-plus.1200 GAMES Coach Pat Summitt coached in her 1,200th col-lege game when she faced Texas Tech on Nov. 17.WE HIT 1,100 The Tennessee Lady Vols have a proud and rich history of women’s basketball on “The Hill.” With the victory over Texas Tech on Nov. 17, the Lady Vols re-corded the 1100th win in program history.600TH WIN Tennessee’s win over Baylor to open the 2009-10 season was Lady Vol Coach Pat Summitt’s 600th victory over a non-conference team. She is now 604-129 versus non-conference opposition over 36 sea-sons. ESPNU ROAD TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP The Lady Vols took the ESPNU Road to the Championship (formerly the ESPNU Women’s Basket-ball Invitational) when it defeated Texas Tech in Nov. 17. The preseason women’s basketball doubleheader, UConn defeated Texas in the night cap, is played in the same city as the women’s NCAA championship. The ESPNU Road to the Championship is an ESPN Regional TV (ERT) owned and operated event. San Antonio is the host city for the 2010 NCAA women’s basketball championship.UT’S SEASON-OPENERS UNDER SUMMITT Over the last 36 years on opening day, the Lady Vols have won 33 times and lost just three contests. Coach Pat Summitt lost her very fi rst game as a col-lege head coach -- a heartbreaking one-point decision at home in Alumni Gym to Mercer, 84-83, on Dec. 7, 1974. The next time UT lost an opening game was in Knoxville on Nov. 21, 1981, to Stephen F. Austin, 80-74, in Stokely Athletics Center. Most recently, UT fell in their fi rst contest of the 1999-2000 campaign dropping a 69-64 decision to Louisiana Tech on Nov. 14, 1999 in Thompson-Boling Arena. Until the loss to the Lady Techsters in 1999, the Lady Vols had won 18 consecu-tive season openers.

ELITE COMPANY Rookie forward/guard Taber Spani be-came the 13th Lady Vol player to start her very fi rst game as a Lady Vol when she started against Baylor. Last season, when Coach Pat Summitt started freshmen Shekinna Stricklen and Glory Johnson against San Francisco, it marked only the 11th and 12th time in her coaching career that a freshman started her very fi rst game at Tennessee. The list of open-ing day rookie starters: Taber Spani 2009, Glory Johnson and Shekinna Stricklen, 2008, Angie Bjorklund, 2007, Candace Parker, 2005, Shyra Ely 2001, Ashley Robinson 2000, Gwen Jack-son 1999, Kyra Elzy 1996, Chamique Hold-sclaw 1995, Tiffani Johnson 1994, Bridgette Gordon and Sheila Frost 1985.

THE NOD Last season, a record number of players – FIVE – were called on to start for the Lady Vols as rookies… Shekinna Stricklen (starter number 53), Glory Johnson (number 54), Briana Bass (55), Alicia Manning (56) and Kelley Cain (57) all earned starting assignments becoming the 53rd-57th freshmen to earn the honor. Angie Bjorklund became the 52nd all-time Lady Vol to start dur-ing her freshman season –she started in 30 of 38 games. Previously, Cait McMahan earned a start at point guard versus Louisiana Tech during her freshman season. Prior to Cait’s starting nod, then-redshirt freshman Candace Parker played and started in all 36 games her rookie season in 2005-06. A season earlier, Tennessee coach Pat Summitt liked what she saw out of the 2004-05 rookie class as two players earned starting nods during the season. Nicky Anosike played in all 35 games with 25 starting assignments and Alexis Hornbuckle played in all 35 games with 21 starts. This duo became the 48th and 49th rookies all-time to earn starting assignments at UT as rook-ies. The 2001-02 rookie class found three play-ers earn a starting nod as Loree Moore, Shyra Ely and Brittany Jackson all started at some point in their rookie careers.

● Jenny Moshak, University of Tennessee Associate Athletics Director for Sports Medicine, announced on Jan. 8, 2010, that Lady Vol basketball junior forward Vicki Baugh will sit out this season. “Drs. Greg Mathien and Russell Betcher, UT team orthopaedists, performed surgery on Vicki’s left knee this afternoon at UT Medical Center,” said Moshak. “The surgery addressed a meniscus tear and a partial medial meniscectomy was performed.” Baugh had been rehabbing her left knee since undergoing a second anterior cruciate ligament surgery on Feb. 24, 2009 and had hoped to return this season. According to Moshak, Baugh’s surgery went well today and she will begin rehabilita-tion of the knee immediately. Typical recovery generally ranges four to six weeks. “Vicki had been making solid progress up until early December when she felt her knee move awkwardly,” said Moshak. “She began to experience swelling and diagnostic testing revealed meniscal damage which was repaired today. “The good news, in the words of her doctors, is that the ACL looks pristine. That is outstanding!” said Moshak. On Feb. 2, 2009, the 6-4 forward from Sacramento, Cal., re-injured her ACL in an 80-70 loss at #2-ranked Oklahoma. The injury occurred during the second half as Baugh was helping her Lady Vol team rally against the Sooners. Dr. Greg Mathien diagnosed the ACL tear on Feb. 3, 2009 and Drs. Mathien and Betcher performed surgery on Feb. 24, 2009, to address the ACL revision and repaired a medial meniscus tear of her knee. A key member of the squad heading into her sophomore season, she had seen very limited action since suffering a sprain of the knee in practice on Jan. 1, 2009, in preparation for the game at Rutgers. In the 2008-09 campaign, she played in 14 games and started 10. She was averaging 6.5 ppg, 7.3 rpg prior to the injury. The February 2009 incident was Baugh’s second ACL injury. She was injured in the last game of her 2007-08 rookie season, in the 2008 NCAA title game versus Stanford. Baugh’s slashing-through-the-key lay-up gave the Lady Vols a double-digit lead (55-44) that they would not relinquish down the stretch en route to NCAA Championship number eight. Unfortunately for Baugh, that was the play when the injury occurred to her left knee. On April 11, 2008, an MRI confirmed that Baugh had torn her ACL and she had surgery on May 13, 2008. During her freshman season, Baugh played in all 38 games helping the Lady Vols to a 36-2 record. She averaged 5.3 ppg and 4.0 rpg in 13.1 minutes per contest. She shot a team best 55.2 percent from the field (79-143) and knocked in 77.8 percent of her charity tosses. She recorded six games in double-digits scoring including a season high 12 point effort versus Purdue in the NCAA Tournament. Baugh had a monster game on the boards against Louisiana Tech hauling in 16 rebounds. With Baugh’s status now known, Tennessee is down three post players for the re-mainder of the season as 6-3 freshman post Faith Dupree is sidelined with back problems and 6-1 sophomore Amber Gray is recovering from both shoulder and brain surgeries.

● Has 10 career double digit scoring games and seven career double figure rebound con-tests

Exhibition #1: Carson-NewmanNov. 5, 2009 • Knoxville, Tenn.

Thompson-Boling Arena (12,363)

EXHIBITION 1: CARSON-NEWMAN Six players reached double fi gures and No. 8 Tennessee defeated Carson-Newman 124-34 in an exhibition game Thursday night in Thompson-Boling Arena. Sophomore Glory Johnson led the way with a game-high 22 points and 10 rebounds, and junior Angie Bjorklund scored 21 points on 9-of-14 shooting before making her exit midway through the second half. At one point after halftime, Bjorklund had scored more points than Carson-Newman. “We wanted to focus on what the team brought at both ends,” UT coach Pat Summitt said. “Last year, we would sometimes play down to the level of our competition. Tonight, we maintained our intensity. Last year, we’d get a lead and think the game was over. Tonight, we were thinking execution.” Freshman guard Taber Spani started and scored 17 points in her fi rst game as a Lady Vol. Alicia Manning added 18 points, and Kelley Cain had 16 points. Shekinna Stricklen chipped in 12 points, 10 of which came in the fi rst half. No other freshmen played until forward Kamiko Williams, who scored two points on 1-of-2 shooting, entered with about 6:21 remaining in the game. Faith Dupree did not play. For the game, Tennessee hit 62 percent of its shots from the fi eld, including a 45-percent clip from beyond the 3-point line. Bjorklund and Spani both hit a team-high three 3-pointers. The Lady Vols opened the game on a 16-3 run and cruised to a 64-18 lead at halftime, thanks in large part to 18 fi rst-half turnovers by Carson-Newman. Tennessee scored 22 points off turnovers in the opening half and used their considerable size advantage inside to outscore the Lady Eagles 34-8 inside over the same span. The Lady Vols defeated Carson-Newman 135-55 in an exhibition game last year and have now scored more than 100 points in fi ve of their last six exhibition games against the Division II school. “Overall, I was pleased,” Summitt said. “We played well together. Sometimes our defense was too tight. We weren’t perfect, but we’ve got some good fi lm to look at.”

Exhibition #2: Delta StateNov. 9, 2009 • Knoxville, Tenn.


EXHIBITION 2: DELTA STATE Kelley Cain breezed to a double-double Monday night in a 79-46 exhibition victory over Delta State in Thompson-Boling Arena. Cain, who fi nished with a game-high 20 points, 20 rebounds and seven blocked shots in just 19 minutes of play, loomed large over the Lady Statesmen, whose tallest player still gave up four inches to Tennessee’s 6-foot-6 center. “When she’s playing that way, you can’t stop it,” Lady Vols guard Angie Bjorklund said. “Having that inside presence really helps us, especially in the outside game. Coach (Pat) Summitt says that you win with rebounding and defense and she’s a huge part of that.” Tennessee opened on an 11-0 run and used another 11-0 run to take a 22-5 lead early in the fi rst half. Delta State, ranked No. 4 in Division II, made a couple charges in the second half but never seriously posed a threat. “I wasn’t real impressed with what did in the fi rst half,” Summitt said. “We played in spurts in the second half. The bright spots for us were Kelley Cain and Taber Spani.” Despite coming off the bench in favor of sophomore Glory Johnson, Spani notched a double-double of her own with 14 points and 10 rebounds. Seven of those boards came on the offensive end. “Taber is just a player,” Summitt said. “She just wants to play. It doesn’t matter where. She has a great feel for the game.” Angie Bjorklund scored 12 points on 4-of-13 shooting, while Shekinna Stricklen added 10 points and nine boards. Johnson fi nished with seven points on 2-of-6 shooting with two blocks and fi ve rebounds. Freshman Faith Dupree made her Lady Vols debut Monday, but failed to score in 10 minutes on the court. She did record a block and two steals. Point guard Bug Cooper paced Delta State with 15 points, but the Lady Statesmen shot just 26 percent from the fi eld and turned the ball over 19 times. Tennessee and Delta State last played in 1979 before Monday’s exhibition, but the two programs met in the 1977 AIAW Final Four where the Lady Statesmen defeated Tennessee to claim their third consecutive AIWA national title.

GAME 1: #7/4 BAYLOR The Tennessee Lady Vols offi cially opened the 2009-10 season against the No. 7/4-ranked Baylor Bears, and as in 33 other season openers under Head Coach Pat Summitt, the Lady Vols came away with a win, 74-65. Leading the way for Tennessee was sophomore Shekinna Stricklen, who played all 40 minutes on her way to her third career double double. The Morrilton, Ark., native scored 25 points - one off her career high - and grabbed 14 rebounds, establishing a new career best. Stricklen also dished out fi ve assists and grabbed three steals on her way to Player of the Game honors. The Lady Vols got off to a quick start, building a 10-3 lead nearly four minutes into the contest. However, the Lady Vols shooting would go cold as the Lady Bears took a 26-24 lead into the lockerroom. While UT mustered only 28.9 percent from the fi eld in the fi rst 20 minutes, the Lady Vol defense limited Baylor to only 29.2 percent shooting. The second half belonged to Tennessee, as the Lady Vols outscored Baylor 50-39 in the fi nal stanza. In addition to Stricklen, center Kelley Cain posted 13 of her 15 points in the second half. The Lady Vols used a 16-0 run from the 1:02 mark of the fi rst half to the 16:16 point of the second half to transform a six-point defi cit (20-26) into a 10-point lead (36-26). Junior Angie Bjorklund was the third Lady Vol to fi nish with double fi gures as she posted 13 points. Her three three-pointers moved the Spokane Valley, Wash., native into a tie for fi fth all-time with Sidney Spencer in the Tennessee record books with 133 career triples made. Sophomore Glory Johnson was the only Lady Vol to fi nish with more than four points. The Knoxville native tallied nine points to go with seven rebounds and four steals in 33 minutes of action.

Game #2: vs. Texas TechNov. 17, 2009 • San Antonio, Texas

AT&T Center (4,586)

GAME 2: TEXAS TECH The Tennessee Lady Vols made their fi rst road trip of the season and handed the Texas Tech Lady Raiders a 91-53 loss at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas. The two sides squared off as part of the ESPNU “Road to the Championsip” - the 2010 NCAA Final Four will be held at the Alamodome in San Antonio. The Lady Raiders grabbed the early lead, going up 6-2 just over four minutes into the contest. The Lady Vols would respond in a big way. Tennessee went on a 24-2 tear over 10:55 to build a 26-8 lead with just under fi ve minutes to play before the halftime horn. Leading the way for UT in the fi rst stanza were sophomores Shekinna Stricklen and Glory Johnson, who each tallied nine fi rst half points and fi ve rebounds. Johnson fi nished the contest with 17 points and six boards, while Stricklen tossed in 16 points, pulled down seven boards and dished out fi ve assists. Tennessee was not about to let up in the second half, and opened the second period on a 32-4 run over the fi rst six minutes of the half. Junior Angie Bjorklund keyed the run with nine points on three three-pointers over a mere 25 seconds, giving UT a 51-21 lead with 15:56 to play. For the game, the Lady Vol offense was not dependent solely on Johnson and Stricklen. Bjorklund fi nished with 14 points - all of which came in the second half - to go with four boards and two assists. Leading the way for the Lady Vols with a game high 18 points was freshman Taber Spani, 14 of which came in the second half. After shooting just 1-of-3 in the fi rst half, the rookie was 4-of-6 in the fi nal 20 minutes and also pulled down six boards. Sophomore Alicia Manning started her fi rst game of the season, and tallied eight points and a game high nine rebounds. Redshirt sophomore Kelley Cain grabbed eight boards and added seven points, while freshman Faith Dupree fi nished with six boards, fi ve points and three assists in 18 minutes.

Game #3: at #12/17 VirginiaNov. 22, 2009 • Charlottesville, Va.John Paul Jones Arena (11,895)

GAME 3: #12/17 VIRGINIA Junior Angie Bjorklund was feeling it on Sunday afternoon at John Paul Jones Arena against #12/17 Virginia in Charlottesville, Va. Monica Wright, the Cavaliers preseason All-American, said so. “She tore it up tonight. She was just so hot,” said Wright. Bjorklund fi nished with a game high 24 points, including fi ve three pointers in leading the #6/5 Lady Vols to a 77-63 win in a hostile JPJ Arena on Nov. 22. It was the Spokane Valley, Wash., native’s 34th career double digit scoring game and the seventh outing in her time at Rocky Top that she has scored at least 20 in a game. Bjorklund’s shooting from beyond the arc was instrumental for the Lady Vols. Midway through the fi rst half, she scored six points in 21 seconds to give UT a 32-19 lead. Not even two minutes into the second half, the Cavaliers had cut the Tennessee lead to 42-39, when Bjorklund converted a four-point play which silenced the record-crowd of 11,895. On the next play at the defensive end, she grabbed the rebound, came down the fl oor and found freshman Taber Spani for a three-pointer to put UT up 49-39. A trio of Tennessee sophomores also had a big impact on the win. Knoxville native Glory Johnson scored 14 points and grabbed six rebounds. In addition, Johnson was charged with defending Wright, who scored 35 against UT a year ago, but was held to 21 this time around. Shekinna Stricklen scored 20 points - her sixth career 20-point plus performance - grabbed eight rebounds and dished out a season-high six assists. Center Kelley Cain was limited to only six points, but her inside presence opened the perimeter up for the Lady Vol guards. Cain added six rebounds and six blocks, one off her career high and tied for third best in a single game for Tennessee. The Lady Vols owned the rebounding edge, 46-42, for the third time in as many games this season. UT’s 40 fi rst half points were its most in the fi rst 20 minutes this season.

Game #4: at Middle TennesseeNov. 25, 2009 • Murfreesboro, Tenn.

Murphy Center (11,802)

GAME 4: MIDDLE TENNESSEE STATE For the fi rst time in 30 years, the Tennessee Lady Vols traveled to Murfreesboro to face the Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders. Sophomore Glory Johnson led the Lady Vols to a 69-52 victory with a career high 21 points and 12 rebounds. It was the Knoxville native’s sixth career double double and her second career 20-plus point performance (she scored 20 points on Feb. 5 last season in a 73-43 win over Georgia). Tennessee grabbed a 2-0 lead on an Angie Bjorklund jumper. MTSU responded with a Chelsia Lymon three-pointer. Lady Vol rookie Taber Spani converted a layup at the 18:50 mark of the fi rst half and UT would not relinquish the lead the rest of the game. The Lady Vols used an 8-0 run to build a 30-20 lead with 3:58 and held the Blue Raiders to only two fi eld goals in the last 7:18 of the fi rst stanza as Tennessee fi nished the fi rst 20 minutes on a 13-4 run and went into the lockerroom with a 35-24 lead. Middle Tennessee got to within 10 of the Lady Vol lead, 41-31, with 15:50 remaining on a Lymon three-pointer. Tennessee responded with a three pointer of its own by Spani off an assist from Bjorklund. In addition to Johnson, Bjorklund and sophomore Shekinna Stricklen each tallied double fi gures. Bjorklund tossed in 16 points, while dishing out fi ve assists and grabbing three steals. Stricklen fi nished with 12 points, four assists and three rebounds. Helping clean up on the glass was redshirt sophomore Kelley Cain, who pulled down 11 rebounds and pitched in six points. The Murphy Center on the MTSU campus saw its fi rst ever sellout for a women’s game, drawing a standing room only crowd of 11,802, just fi ve spectators shy of the Murphy Center record of 11,807 for any game there.

Game #5: UCLANov. 28, 2009 • Knoxville, Tenn.


GAME 5: UCLA The UCLA Bruins made the trek to Knoxville for the fi rst time since Nov. 16, 2006, but the Bruin coaching staff was very familiar with Thompson-Boling Arena and the Lady Vols. The Bruins are led by former Lady Vol and assistant coach Nikki Caldwell. She is assisted by former Lady Vol Tasha Butts and a former Lady Vol practice player, Tony Perotti. Unfortunately for the Bruins, the outcome was the same as it has been the previous six times UT Head Coach Pat Summitt faced off against a former player, the Lady Vols came away victorious, 61-47. The Bruins started off hot and led the entire fi rst half after shooting 42.9 percent in the fi rst stanza. The UCLA defense limited the Tennessee offense to just 9-of-31 shooting, 29 percent, in the fi rst half. Freshman Taber Spani scored eight of UT’s fi nal 11 points, including the last fi ve straight. The Lee’s Summit, Mo., native tied the game at 25 apiece on a pair of free throws with 30 seconds left before the halftime horn. A late Bruin fi eld goal gave UCLA a 27-25 lead at the break. UT held UCLA without a fi eld goal from the 4:56 mark of the fi rst half to just four seconds remaining, going on an 11-1 run to tie the game at 25. The Lady Vols would continue that run, extending it to 18-3 and a 32-27 lead nearly fi ve minutes into the second half. Spani fi nished with a team high 16 points for the second time this season and added six rebounds. Junior Angie Bjorklund tallied 12 points, all of which came in the second half, and tied Shannon Bobbitt for fourth with 147 career three pointers. Sophomore Glory Johnson tallied 11 points and seven rebounds while classmate Kelley Cain tied her season and career high with 11 boards and pitched in eight points. Sophomore Shekinna Stricklen continued to be a jack-of-all-trades, fi nishing with eight boards, six points and three assists. The Lady Vols won the battle of the boards for the fi fth time in as many games this season, 49-35.

Game #6: George WashingtonDec. 1, 2009 • Knoxville, Tenn.


GAME 6: GEORGE WASHINGTON The Tennessee Lady Vols entered their Dec. 1 match-up with George Washington with only nine available players as redshirt sophomore Kelley Cain did not play after suffering a concussion against UCLA. The nine available made the most of their opportunity and all played at least 18 minutes en route to a 93-53 win over the Colonials. Sophomore Alyssia Brewer made the most of her season high 22 minutes as she tallied a career high 23 points on 11-of-15 shooting and grabbed a season best seven rebounds. The Lady Vols didn’t start the way Head Coach Pat Summitt would like, trailing 10-9 nearly fi ve minutes into the game. From that point, UT used an 11-2 run over 2:53 to build a 20-12 lead. Over the fi nal 6:54 of the fi rst half, the Lady Vols only surrendered a pair of GW free throws on their way to a 16-2 run and took a 54-24 lead into the break. At the half, sophomore Glory Johnson had notched her seventh career double double. The Knoxville native fi nished with 16 points and 12 rebounds. Classmate Shekinna Stricklen recorded her fourth career double double with 17 points and 10 rebounds. Tennessee dominated the paint, outscoring GW 34-4 in the fi rst half and 54-12 in the paint for the game. The Lady Vols also owned the rebounding advantage, 49-40, for the sixth time in as many games this season. Junior Angie Bjorklund notched her 150th career three pointer and took sole possession of fourth place in the UT record books. Sophomore Alicia Manning fi nished with career highs of six assists and four steals, to go with fi ve points and fi ve rebounds in a season high 30 minutes of action. Bjorklund, junior Sydney Smallbone and freshman Taber Spani all fi nished with nine points, in addition to the three Lady Vols who tallied double fi gures.

Game #8: vs. RutgersDec. 13, 2009 • New York, NY

Madison Square Garden (7,190)

GAME 8: RUTGERS The Tennessee Lady Vols traveled to New York City and the World’s Most Famous Arena, Madison Square Garden, for the third time to face the Rutgers Scarlet Knights in the second game of the Maggie Dixon Classic. On the strength of Shekinna Stricklen’s team high 19 points, the Lady Vols earned the “W”, 68-54, improving UT’s all-time record at MSG to 3-0, all three of which have come against Rutgers. Prior to facing the Lady Vols, Rutgers had been holding their opponents to only 54.7 points per game and 33.1 percent shooting. As in previous games this season, the Lady Vols were down early, 3-2, at the 17:36 mark of the fi rst half, but once UT got the lead, it did not surrender the advantage. After pulling ahead, 4-3, on a Kelley Cain layup, Tennessee would not trail the rest of the game. The Lady Vols used a 14-2 run from the 16:42 mark of the fi rst half to the 10:56 point to build a 21-7 lead. The Scarlet Knights continued to fi ght and play tough defense, and were able to pull within fi ve, 30-25, as the fi rst half came to a close. Rutgers got within one at 40-39 with 13:14 to play, but Tennessee put together an 8-0 run to the 8:44 mark, building a 48-39 lead. The Scarlet Knights were unable to recover and did not get within seven the rest of the contest. In addition to her 19 points, Stricklen tallied four steals, three rebounds and three assists. Sophomore Glory Johnson, who only played four minutes in the fi rst half after picking up two fouls, fi nished with 10 points and seven rebounds. All of Johnson’s points and all but one of her boards came in the second stanza. Classmate Alyssia Brewer fi nished with 10 points and four rebounds in 16 minutes, while fellow post Kelley Cain tallied nine points, seven boards, six blocks and three assists. Junior Angie Bjorklund fi nished with eight points, fi ve rebounds and four assists in playing nearly all 40 minutes.

Game #9: LouisvilleDec. 16, 2009 • Knoxville, Tenn.


GAME 9: LOUISVILLE Prior to the game, Head Coach Pat Summitt addressed the crowd of 11,084 and let them know that, for the fi rst time since 2004-05, each individual would have their name on the back of their jersey, telling the fans “Merry Christmas”. Her team would return the present to coach Summitt as they downed the Louisville Cardinals, 86-56, as UofL became the 180th team all-time to face UT and the 12th current BIG EAST squad to square off against the Lady Vols. Entering the game, the Cardinals had averaged 74.3 points per game, but were limited to 56 and 31.7 percent shooting. Tennessee jumped off to a scorching hot start, building a 23-3 lead with 13:30 to play in the fi rst half, including a stretch where UT went on an 18-0 run. However, the Cardinals would not give up and cut the Big Orange lead to seven (31-24) with 5:04 remaining before the fi rst half horn sounded. The Tennessee defense stepped up and allowed only two Louisville fi eld goals the rest of the half and went into the locker room with a 43-29 lead. It was the seventh time UT had lead after the fi rst 20 minutes, but the fi rst time that the Lady Vols had not trailed in the opening stanza this season. The second half provided much of the same as Tennessee extended its lead, reaching a 31-point margin (86-55) with 2:50 to play. Sophomore Alyssia Brewer led the Lady Vols with her third career double-double, posting 12 points and 10 rebounds. Junior Angie Bjorklund scored a team high 19 points and sophomore Shekinna Stricklen tossed in 15, pulled down eight rebounds and dished out six assists. Sophomore Glory Johnson hauled in double digit rebounds for the 10th time in her career, grabbing 10 caroms, to go with seven points. Tennessee tied the mark for second most blocks in a single game in school history with 12 and grabbed a season best 54 rebounds to Louisville’s 37. The Lady Vols have held an advantage on the boards in all nine contests this season.

Game #10: at #2/2 StanfordDec. 19, 2009 • Palo Alto, Calif.

Maples Pavilion (6,809)

GAME 10: #2/2 STANFORD The Tennessee Lady Vols suffered their fi rst defeat, 67-52, of the 2009-10 season when they squared against the No. 2/2-ranked Stanford Cardinal on Dec. 19 at Maples Pavilion. The Lady Vol defense limited the Cardinal to only four points over the fi rst 7:05 of the contest and Tennessee owned an 11-4 lead, but the UT shooting would go cold from there. Tennessee went into the lockerroom with only 18 points, tying for the sixth fewest fi rst half points ever by a Lady Vol squad, and trailed 30-18. The Lady Vol offense mustered to shoot only 21.9 percent (7-of-32) in the fi rst 20 minutes. Redshirt sophomore Kelley Cain was the lone bright spot for the UT side in the opening half, scoring six points and grabbing fi ve boards. Tennessee was unable to work the ball inside in the second half and Cain fi nished with six points, seven rebounds and three blocks. The Lady Vols opened the second half holding steady with the Cardinal and cut the Stanford lead to eight (38-30) with 13:47 to play in the contest. The Cardinal quickly responded by rippinig off seven straight over the next 1:25 to build a 15-point advantage (45-30) with 12:22 to play. Tennessee cut its defi cit to 11 (60-49) with 2:46 to play on a pair of Angie Bjorklund free throws, but that’s as close as the Lady Vols would get. Bjorklund scored a team high 15 points and made three three pointers, tying her with Brittany Jackson for third in the UT record books with 161 career triples made. Sophomore Glory Johnson was the only other Lady Vol to score in double fi gures, as she fi nished with 13 points, seven rebounds and a pair of blocks. Tennessee tied a season-low with 34 rebounds and was outrebounded, 44-34, for the fi rst time in 2009-10. The Lady Vol offense managed only four assists, the fewest on the season, while the Cardinal offense tallied 14 helpers on 22 fi eld goals and four Stanford players fi nished in double fi gures.

Game #11: at San FranciscoDec. 22, 2009 • San Francisco, Calif.

War Memorial Gym (3,255)

GAME 11: SAN FRANCISCO The Lady Vols bounced back from their fi rst loss of the 2009-10 campaign with an 89-34 victory over the San Francisco Dons at War Memorial Gym in San Francisco, Calif. Junior Angie Bjorklund led UT with a game high 19 points on the strength of 7-of-10 shooting - including 4-of-5 from three-point range - in only 17 minutes of action. Bjorklund dished out four assists and grabbed a pair of steals. The Dons opened the game strong, feeding off the energy the crowd of 3,255 brought to the gym that Bill Russell and K.C. Jones helped make famous, and owned a 4-2 advantage just over two minutes into the contest. Over the next 4:23, Tennessee went on a 10-0 run and built a 12-4 lead, and would not look back. After stretching the lead to 24-11 with 10:04 left in the fi rst stanza, the Lady Vols would go on a 24-6 run to end the half, including a stretch where UT went on a 13-0 tear to build a 37-11 lead. The second half saw the Lady Vol bench used almost exclusively as Tennessee outscored the Dons 41-17 in the fi nal 20 minutes. Freshman Kamiko Williams shined the brightest for UT in the second stanza as she scored 10 of her 14 points, grabbed six of her eight boards, picked four steals and dished out three assists in 14 second half minutes. Sophomore Glory Johnson narrowly missed a double double as she fi nished with 13 points and nine rebounds. Despite shooting only 3-of-9 from the fl oor, she was 7-of-8 from the free throw line. Classmates Alicia Manning and Alyssia Brewer each fi nished with eight points. Manning hauled in eight rebounds, dished out three assists and grabbed three steals in 25 minutes. Brewer grabbed six rebounds and added a block and a steal in 24 minutes. The Lady Vol size advantage was quite evident as UT enjoyed a 52-32 rebounding edge, the 10th time in 2009-10 that Tennessee owned the glass. The Tennessee offense was able to work the ball inside and claimed a 36-2 paint points advantage.

Game #12: Old DominionDec. 30, 2009 • Knoxville, Tenn.


GAME 12: OLD DOMINION If the Tennessee Lady Vols had developed any rust over the holiday break, it did not show as UT downed Old Dominion 102-62 on Dec. 30, 2009. It was the fi rst time the Lady Vols had broken the centruy mark since Jan. 2, 2008, when UT claimed a 102-68 road win over the DePaul Blue Demons. The Tennessee shooting was red-hot as the Lady Vols converted 43-of-64 fi eld goal attempts, good for a 67.2 percent clip. It was the seventh best shooting night in UT history. In the fi rst half, UT was 26-of-37 from the fi eld and owned a 57-31 lead at the break. It was the most fi rst half points since UT scored 59 in the opening stanza against Chattanooga on Nov. 12, 2006. Tennessee opened the game on an 11-0 run and never trailed during the contest. Midway through the fi rst half, UT used a 15-2 run over 4:50 to build a 36-15 lead. Sophmore Glory Johnson led fi ve Lady Vols in double fi gure scoring as she posted her eighth career double double with 15 points and 10 rebounds as she came off the bench for the fi rst time this season. Junior Angie Bjorklund tallied a game-high 19 points on 8-of-12 shooting, including a trio of three-pointers. Sophomore Alyssia Brewer tossed in 16 points, grabbed six boards, dished out three assists and blocked two shots in 22 minutes of action. Sophomore Briana Bass and freshman Kamiko Williams each added 11 points for UT. Bass converted on 4-of-5 fi eld goals attempts, including a perfect 3-of-3 from beyond the arc for a season-best scoring game. In addition to the points, Williams dished out a season high six assists to go with three rebounds and two steals. The Lady Vols were given a scare when sophomore Shekinna Stricklen landed awkwardly on her right knee three minutes into the contest and had to be helped off the court. She tested fi ne and returned to the bench but did not play.

What those in attendance and watching on TV also witnessed was a night of history as UT sophomore Shekinna Stricklen recorded just the second triple-double in Lady Vol history, as she fi nished with 17 points, 13 rebounds and a career best 12 assists. Early in the game, however, UT Head Coach Pat Summitt was not pleased with what she was seeing from her point guard. “When she took me out, she told me that I wasn’t playing like a point guard and that I needed to step my game up to another level,” Stricklen said. “I just said ‘Yes ma’am, and I responded.” Stricklen wasn’t the only Lady Vol to post a big night. Junior shooting guard Angie Bjorklund torched the nets for 25 points, including a 5-of-8 performance from beyond the arc. The Sooners opened the game with a 9-2 run and held a 10 point advantage, 14-4, with 16:51 to play in the fi rst half. The Lady Vols responded, and used a 13-2 run over 4:01 to build a 27-22 lead with 8:50 left in the opening stanza. Tennessee went into the break with the lead, 45-39, for the 10th time this season. In the second half, the Lady Vols pulled away, outscoring the Sooners 51-36 in the second frame. In addition to Bjorklund and Stricklen, sophomores Alyssia Brewer and Kelley Cain each posted double digit scoring nights. Brewer tossed in 13 points, to go with fi ve rebounds, two blocks, an assist and a steal. Cain dumped in 10 points, hauled in eight boards and blocked fi ve shots. The pair dominated the post and helped UT to a 44-22 points in the paint advantage and a 48-31 rebounding margin, the 12th time this season the Lady Vols have owned a positive rebound margin.

Game #14: South CarolinaJan. 7, 2010 • Knoxville, Tenn.


GAME 14: SOUTH CAROLINA The Tennessee Lady Vols opened the SEC portion of the 2009-10 schedule with a 79-62 victory over the South Carolina Gamecocks on Jan. 7. The win improved UT to 41-2 all-time against SC, extended the Lady Vols’ winning streak to 37 in the series and improved Tennessee’s record to 26-5 in conference openers. The Gamecocks and Lady Vols would go back and forth over the opening minutes and SC built a six point lead, 14-8, barely three minutes into the contest. The Tennessee defense stepped up and held the South Carolina offense without a fi eld goal for over fi ve and a half minutes to turn a 19-14 defi cit into a 31-20 lead with 9:28 to play before the break. For the sixth time this season and the fourth straight game, UT shot above 50 percent from the fi eld in the opening stanza and used the hot shooting to build a 47-33 lead at the break. It was the 11th time in 2009-10 that the Lady Vols have held the halftime advantage. After the break, South Carolina continued to fi ght and pulled within seven, 55-48, on a pair of Jewel May free throws with 12:36 to play. The UT defense held the SC offense without a fi eld goal from the 13:39 mark of the second half with the score 53-46 to the 6:57 point and a 68-49 Lady Vol lead. The crowd of 1,462 was the second smallest at Thompson-Boling Arena due to bad weather. The smallest was when 1,461 fought the ice to see the Lady Vols down Mississippi State, 91-63, on Jan. 2, 1991. While the weather outside wrecked havoc on the crowd, junior Angie Bjorklund and sophomore Shekinna Stricklen were both hot. The two combined to shoot 17-of-32 for 44 points. Bjorklund tallied 23, including fi ve three pointers and Stricklen added 21 points. In addition, Bjorklund fi nished with four boards, three assists and a steal, while Stricklen tallied six assists, two rebounds and three blocks. Sophomore Kelley Cain added eight points, fi ve boards and six blocks while classmate Glory Johnson fi nished with nine points and nine rebounds.

Game #15: Mississippi StateJan. 10, 2010 • Starkville, Miss.

Humphrey Coliseum (5,787)

GAME 15: MISSISSIPPI STATE The Tennessee Lady Vols went on the road for the fi rst time in the 2010 SEC season and downed the Mississippi State Lady Bulldogs, 75-48, on Jan. 10 in Starkville. With the win, the Lady Bulldogs remain the only league foe to have never beaten the Lady Vols, with the all-time series standing at 31-0 in favor of UT. Sophomore Glory Johnson, who had been in and out of Coach Summitt’s dog house over the previous week, was back in the starting lineup and posted a double-double in the fi rst half. It was the Knoxville native’s ninth career double-double as she fi nished with 16 points and a career-best 15 rebounds. Tennessee began the game on a 13-5 run over nearly the fi rst fi ve minutes and never trailed in the contest for the third time this season. The Lady Vol defense stifl ed the Mississippi State offense with its long and rangy zone defense. The Lady Bulldogs came into the contest averaging 78.4 ppg and converting fi eld goals at a 43.2 clip. The UT defense limited MSU to season lows of 28.1 percent shooting and 48 points. Tennessee went into the half with a 39-18 lead, the 12th time in 2009-10 that the Lady Vols have enjoyed an advantage in the locker room. And for the 12th time, the Lady Vols claimed a victory. Senior Alexis Rack was the Lady Bulldogs leading scorer at 20.4 ppg and the UT defense held her to only fi ve fi rst half points and 19 for the game. Along with Johnson, junior Angie Bjorklund and freshman Taber Spani fi nished in double fi gure scoring for Tennessee. Bjorklund continued her hot streak, shooting 6-of-14 from the fl oor and 4-of-9 from three-point range to fi nish with 16 points. She added six boards, three steals and a pair of assists. Spani tossed in double digits for the fi rst time since Nov. 28, as she tallied 12 points on 5-of-10 shooting. Sophomore Shekinna Stricklen continued to be a jack-of-all-trades as she notched nine points, nine rebounds and six assists. Redshirt-sophomore Kelley Cain added six points, fi ve boards and two blocks in only 15 minutes of action.

Game #16: FloridaJan. 14, 2010 • Gainesville, Fla.

Stephen C. O’Connell Center (4,403)

GAME 16: FLORIDA The Tennessee Lady Vols overcame a season-high 25 turnovers and a poor fi rst half shooting performance to down the Florida Gators, 66-64, in Gainesville on Jan. 14. Redshirt sophomore center Kelley Cain led the Lady Vols with her third career double double as she tallied game-highs of 17 points and 10 rebounds. Cain scored the fi rst six points of the game as Tennessee raced to an 11-3 lead just 2:25 into the contest. After a Shekinna Stricklen three-pointer put the Lady Vols up 14-6 at the 14:41 mark of the fi rst half, Florida went on a 9-0 run to take it’s fi rst lead of the game, 15-14, on a Trumae Lucas fastbreak layup at the 11:31 point. The two sides would battle back-and-forth the rest of the opening frame and Tennessee went into the lockerroom with a 32-29 lead, the 13th time in 2009-10 that UT held an advantage at the break. After taking a 36-35 lead on a Stricklen jumper with 17:37 remaining in the contest, Tennessee would trail until Cain converted a layup with just 1:32 to play in the game. The Gators led by as much eight, which they had at 56-48 with 7:33 to play. Prior to Cain’s layup, freshman Kamiko Williams made a jumper in the lane with 2:17 on the clock to tie the game at 62 apiece. The Lady Vols were able to overcome the defi cit by shooting nearly 61 percent in the second half. Junior Angie Bjorklund did not score in the fi rst half and had a pair of three pointers to keep UT within striking distance. The Spokane Valley, Wash., native made arguably her biggest bucket to date of the season as she converted a reverse layup with just 2.3 seconds to play that put Tennessee up 66-64. The Gators would have one last attempt, and a half court inbounds pass led to a wide open three-point attempt by Lonnika Thompson that bounced off the rim as time expired. Joining Cain in double fi gures was Stricklen with 14 points and six boards. Sophomore Glory Johnson hauled in 10 rebounds and added eight points, the 13th time in her career she has grabbed double digit boards.

Game #17: #rv/22 VanderbiltJan. 17, 2010 • Knoxville, Tenn.


GAME 17: #rv/22 VANDERBILT The Vanderbilt Commodores came into Thompson-Boling Arena with an all-time record of 0-24 against the Lady Vols in Knoxville. And the Commodores would head westward to Nashville with an 0-25 mark after the Lady Vols survived rival Vanderbilt, 64-57, on Jan. 17. The Lady Vols started the contest hot, opening with an 11-3 run over the fi rst 4:43. The Tennessee defense would stifl e the VU offense, not allowing a fi eld goal for over seven minutes and holding the Commodores scoreless from the 14:09 mark to the 6:36 point of the fi rst half. Over that stretch, Tennessee built a 27-7 lead. The Commodores would not go down without a fi ght and rallied to within eight, 29-21, on a pair of free throws and three straight three pointers with 4:45 to play in the half. Eighteen of VU’s 29 fi rst half points came from behind the arc. The Lady Vols went into the halftime break with the lead for the 14th time in 2009-10. Every game in which UT has held the halftime lead, it has won this season. Vanderbilt began the second half by chipping away at the Tennessee lead and forcing the game’s second and fi nal tie, 45-45, at the 15:04 mark. Tennessee would make fi ve of its fi nal six free throws to provide the fi nal margin. Sophomore Glory Johnson led the Lady Vols with team-highs of 17 points and nine rebounds. The Knoxville native was 6-of-11 from the fi eld and 5-of-7 from the charity stripe. Redshirt sophomore Kelley Cain tossed in 14 points on a 6-of-7 shooting performance to go with nine boards. Sophomore Shekinna Stricklen was the third Lady Vol to post double digits as she added 10 points. Tennessee was able to exploit Vanderbilt in two specialty stats. The Lady Vols turned 27 VU turnovers into 28 points and outscored the Commodores 30-12 in the paint as UT enjoyed a signifi cant size advantage.

Game #18: #8/8 GeorgiaJan. 21, 2010 • Athens, Ga.Stegeman Coliseum (7,728)

GAME 18: #8/8 GEORGIA The Tennessee Lady Volunteers turnover woes continued on Jan. 21 in Athens and the No. 8/8 ranked Georgia Lady Bulldogs capitalized, handing the Lady Vols their second defeat of the season, 53-50. The loss was UT’s fi rst in Athens since dropping a 78-51 decision to the Lady Bulldogs on Jan. 17, 2000, and it also ended an eight-game winning streak for Tennessee in the series. UGA Head Coach Andy Landers has the most wins of any coach (15) against UT Head Coach Pat Summitt. Tennessee and Georgia went back-and-forth in the fi rst half, with neither side taking a lead bigger than four. The fi rst 20 minutes featured seven lead changes and six ties. The Lady Vols shot at least 50 percent in the fi rst half for the eighth time this season, but were tied with the Lady Bulldogs at 30 apiece at the break. It was the fi rst time in 2009-10 that UT was even with its opponent heading into the lockerroom. Georgia gained a two-point advantage, 32-30, 20 seconds into the second half and Tennessee forced tie number seven of the game at the 18:29 mark. Neither team was able to score again until the 15:37 point of the second half when Glory Johnson gave UT a two-point edge. Georgia’s Ashley Houts hit a three pointer at the 4:59 mark, forced a steal and converted a fastbreak layup at the 4:37 point to give the lead back to UGA. Alyssia Brewer would give the Lady Vols a 50-49 lead with 1:07 to play, but a Porsha Phillips layup and a pair of free throws provided the fi nal margin. Tennessee shot 29.2 percent from the fl oor in the second half, the worst second half shooting performance of the season for UT. Johnson led Tennessee with a game-high 14 points and added eight rebounds playing all 40 minutes. Kelley Cain added 10 points and nine rebounds before fouling out with 4:13 to play. Brewer started her third career game and tallied eight points and seven rebounds.

Pete Maravich Assembly Center (4,971)

GAME 19: #18/19 LSU On a night when the Tennessee Lady Vols’ offense struggled at times, their defense stepped up and led UT to a 55-43 win at #18/19-ranked LSU on Jan. 24. Tennessee shot just 40 percent in the fi rst half, but limited LSU to 29.2 percent shooting in the opening frame and took a 24-22 lead into the half, despite not scoring for the fi nal 3:15 of the stanza. The second half opened much the same way the fi rst half ended, with neither team scoring for the fi rst 3:06 and not converting a fi eld goal for the fi rst 3:24 of the second 20 minutes. Tennessee did not trail in the fi rst half for the fi fth time this season and the Lady Tigers did not gain a lead until the 11:55 point of the second half, which they held for 2:09 before UT regained the lead. The Tennessee offense bounced back and shot 50.0 percent (11-of-22) in the second half, but it was the Lady Vol defense that made the difference and allowed UT to churn out a 12 point win. The Lady Tigers were held to just 24.1 percent shooting, 7-of-29, in the second half and the Lady Vol defense held the LSU offense scoreless from the 9:35 mark to the 2:47 point, a stretch of 6:48. During that span, Tennessee turned a 37-37 tie into a 50-37 lead. Sophomore Alyssia Brewer earned Lady Vol Player of the Game honors after posting team-bests of 14 points and seven rebounds in 23 minutes of action. The Sapulpa, Okla., native made her fourth start of her career and of the season. Redshirt sophomore Kelley Cain tallied double digits as she tossed in 11 points on 4-of-4 shooting from the fi eld and 3-of-3 from the charity stripe. Cain added four blocks and three rebounds. Sophomore Glory Johnson fi nished with eight points and six rebounds. The post trio of Brewer, Cain and Johnson fi nished the game 13-of-22 and scored 33 points and hauled in 16 rebounds. Junior Angie Bjorklund, who did not start for the fi rst time since coming off the bench at Auburn on Jan. 25, 2009, fi nished with 10 points on 4-of-7 shooting, including a pair of threes.

Game #20: AuburnJan. 28, 2010 • Knoxville, Tenn.


GAME 20: Auburn In 2008-09, the Auburn Tigers became the fi rst squad to beat Tennessee twice in one season since the 2003-04 campaign. On Jan. 28, the Tigers came to Thompson-Boling Arena and the Lady Vols sent AU back to the Plains with an 85-56 loss. Four Lady Vols fi nished the night with double digit scoring efforts, led by junior Angie Bjorklund’s 20 points and sophomore Glory Johnson’s 10th career double double of 15 points and 13 rebounds. For the night, Tennessee tied a school record of 13 three-pointers made, keyed by a 6-of-12 performance from behind the arc by Bjorklund. It marked the 18th time that the Spokane Valley, Wash., native has made at least four three pointers in a contest during her tenure at Rocky Top. Sophomore Shekinna Stricklen tossed in a trio of triples en route to scoring 17 points for the game, and hauled in fi ve rebounds. Classmate Alyssia Brewer came off the bench to score 11 points and pulled in eight boards. On a night when the Lady Vols converted 56.5 percent of their threes, the second best three point shooting night of the season, it would be fi tting that Johnson made her fi rst career triple too. With 2:50 remaining in the fi rst half and UT holding a 34-25 lead, the ball rolled to Johnson and she heaved up a prayer as she was falling backwards with three seconds on the shot clock and hit nothing but net. The Tigers jumped to an early lead, 5-0, at the 18:27 mark of the fi rst half, but Tennessee used a series of runs and good defense to take a 43-25 halftime lead. Tennessee also won the battle of the paint as UT’s post combination of Kelley Cain and Brewer combined for 18 points and 13 rebounds, while holding AU’s KeKe Carrier to eight points, six below her season average. The Lady Vols outscored the Tigers 34-22 in the paint and won the rebounding battle, 43-37, for the 19th time this season.
