TONIGHT’S GAME The #6/5-ranked Tennessee Lady Vols (6-0) play in its third consecutive home game this week and welcomes the #17/17-ranked Texas Longhorns (5-2) to Thompson-Boling Arena on Sun., Dec. 6 at 7 p.m. ESPN2 has the telecast.

WORTH NOTING ABOUT TONIGHT’S GAME •If you are wondering what’s with the hats on Sunday? The Tennessee and Texas head coaches will wear pink cowboy hats at the game (at least in intros) when UT meets UT. Coaches Pat Summitt and Gail Goestenkors backed into the challenge at the Second Annual Kay Yow/WBCA Cancer Fund 4Kay Golf Classic on Sept. 14, 2009. (longer note follows) •The cavalcade of former players, assistants and even practice players facing their Tennessee mentor in Coach Pat Summitt continues tonight with longtime Lady Vol associate head coach Mickie DeMoss (1985-2003) rolling into town as an assistant coach with the Texas Longhorns. In the 2009-10 season, Summitt will face 13 familiar faces on the opposing bench including former players: Nik-ki Caldwell (UCLA head coach), Tasha Butts (UCLA assistant coach), Tanya Haave (San Francisco head coach), Abby Conklin (San Francisco assistant coach), Carla McGhee (South Carolina assistant coach), Nikki McCray (South Carolina assistant coach), Kyra Elzy (Kentucky assistant coach) and Sha-lon Pillow (Kentucky assistant coach); former UT assistant: Mickie DeMoss (Texas assistant coach); former UT graduate assistants: Sharon Fanning (Mississippi State head coach), Matthew Mitchell (Kentucky head coach), Angel Elderkin (Virginia assistant coach) and practice player: Tony Perotti (UCLA assistant). •Despite Tennessee holding an 18-12 all-time series lead, Texas has enjoyed a 5-4 victory ad-vantage in the series since 2000. •Last season marked the fi rst time in 25 meetings (since 12-14-1986) that Texas was ranked higher than the Lady Vols going into a UT-UT meeting. When the two teams met in Austin on Dec. 14, 2008, Tennessee was ranked #7/10 while Texas was slotted #6/5 by the AP/WBCA ESPN. •Tennessee was in the Christmas spirit a little early last year at Texas. The Lady Vols missed 13 free throws (11-24 from the charity stripe) and allowed Texas to register 23 points off of 18 Tennessee turnovers -- basically spotting the Longhorns 36 points. •The Longhorns are one of just 10 teams to EVER defeat the Lady Vols in Thompson-Boling Arena and one of six schools to hold multiple victories over Tennessee on “The Summitt.” Connecticut leads the pack with four wins in Knoxville (2004, 2002, 2000, 1996) and is followed by Duke (2009, 2007, 2004) and Texas (2003, 2002, 1987) with three each. While Gail Goestenkors was head coach at Duke, she defeated the Lady Vols twice at home.

LADY VOLS AT A GLANCE This is the Lady Vols’ 36th season under Head Coach Pat Summitt… She will start a senior-less team for the fi rst time in her tenure... Summitt has compiled a staggering 1,011-193 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 vic-tory 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 Du-pree, a 6-3 forward/center from Knoxville, Tenn. (it was announced on Nov. 23 that Dupree would sit-out this season).

OUR SCHEDULE THIS WEEK Tennessee will have a light schedule over the next week as fi nal exams for fall semester are going on in Knoxville. The Lady Vols will welcome #17/17-ranked Texas on Dec. 6 for a Sunday evening (7 p.m.) game on ESPN2. The team will be off for fi nals until a trip to Madison Square Garden in New York City to face Rutgers in the Maggie Dixon Classic, Dec. 13 at 3:30 pm (ESPNU).

ON THIS DAY IN LADY VOL BASKETBALL HISTORY UT is 10-2 in games played on Dec. 6. The Lady Vols are 5-1 at home, 1-1 on the road and 4-0 on neutral courts. The last time out on Dec. 6, the #2-ranked Lady Vols defeated #21-ranked Boston College, 72-57, in Knoxville, in 2000.

LOOKING BACK Last year at this time, the #9/12-ranked Lady Vols were 5-1 on the campaign after defeating De- Paul, 88-67 in Knoxville. UT’s lone loss at the time was to #16/15-ranked Virginia, 83-82.

Stricklen’s fi rst career double-double of 16 points and 11 rebounds keyed a 20-point halftime comeback at Rutgers.

The Cardinals will become the 180th all-time team and 12th current BIG EAST team to face UT.

THE 4-1-1 ON TEXAS In the last outing for Texas before traveling to meet Tennessee, the Longhorns’ Erika Arriaran made seven treys to score a career-high 23 points, leading #17-ranked Texas to a 94-80 victory over Oral Roberts on Dec. 1 in Austin. Fellow senior Brit-tainey Raven added a season-best 16 points, and Kat Nash added 19 points and nine rebounds for the Longhorns (5-2). In the fi rst six minutes of the sec-ond half, Arriaran made three 3-pointers. Her long-range shooting combined with stingy Texas defense keyed a 22-11 run that gave the Longhorns their big-gest lead, 60-49.

PAT AND COACH G AND MICKIE D Texas head coach Gail Goestenkors is no stranger to Lady Vol fans as she led her Duke Blue Devils to a 5-4 record over the Lady Vols from 1998-2007 including a 2-0 record in games at Thompson-Boling Arena. Last year in Austin, Goestenkors took a one game advantage over UT Coach Pat Summitt in head-to-head meetings (6-5) as the Longhorns took a 73-59 win in Austin. A familiar face on the Texas bench is longtime Lady Vol as-sociate head coach Mickie DeMoss. DeMoss left UT for the head coaching position at the University of Kentucky. Prior to DeMoss taking the helm at Kentucky, the Lady Vols had outscored the Wildcats by an average of 32.0 ppg (85.8 to 53.8) in the four previous seasons (2000-03). The “DeMoss Fac-tor” (2004-07) narrowed the score to a Tennessee leading 70.3-62.3, just a +8.0 winning margin for UT. DeMoss’ Cats shaved Tennessee’s margin, of victory by 24 points. DeMoss stepped down from coaching after the 2007 season only to be lured back into the fray by taking an assistant position with the Longhorns. While DeMoss was at Tennes-see, the Lady Vols were 14-7 against the ‘Horns.

LAST MEETING WITH THE ‘HORNS Tennessee suffered their second loss of the season, 73-59, on Dec. 14, 2008, in Austin to the Texas Longhorns. Freshman Glory Johnson led UT with 13 points and nine rebounds after playing only three minutes in the fi rst half and picking up three fouls. The double-digit output was the ninth in nine games to open the season for Johnson. Texas jumped out to a quick 9-2 lead, with the Lady Vols’ only bucket coming on a Shekinna Stricklen jumper in the lane at the 18:56 mark. Tennessee responded by pulling within one at 9-8 on a Briana Bass three-pointer at the 16:07 mark. UT trailed the Longhorns

the entire fi rst half, until freshman Alyssia Brewer hit a free throw with 26.9 seconds to play before the break. UT had pulled within one three times, includ-ing the Bass three-pointer. Bass hit a free-throw at the 1:55 mark to make it 29-28 in favor of Texas and senior Alex Fuller made a jumper in the lane with just under a minute to play to make the score 31-30. Ten-nessee, which shot only 35.3 percent from the fi eld in the fi rst half, continued to struggle after the break, and, at one point, went 6:04 without a fi eld goal. Dur-ing that span, the game went from a 39-39 tie to a 53-44 Texas lead. For the game, Tennessee shot (then) season-lows of 33.3 percent from the fi eld and 33.3 percent from the free throw line. Only fi ve Lady Vols even attempted a free throw and none made more than half. Redshirt-freshman Kelley Cain, who was 2-of-4, and Johnson, who was 7-of-14, were the only two to make at least two from the charity stripe. Stricklen was the only other Tennessee player to fi n-ish with double-digit points, as she had 11 on 4-of-7 shooting. Four Longhorns posted double-fi gures, led by Brittainey Raven’s game-high 21.

LAST TIME WE MET IN TBA Top-ranked Tennessee raised the 2007 NCAA championship banner to the rafters of Thompson-Boling Arena on Nov. 18, 2007 before tip-off with Texas. The Lady Vols then played like national championship contenders in a 92-67 win over the 21st-ranked Longhorns. The Lady Vols (3-0) domi-nated inside, grabbed 18 steals and forced 30 turn-overs. They fi nished with 42 points in the paint and 40 points off turnovers. Candace Parker led the team with six rebounds and 21 points, including UT’s fi rst 11. The Lady Vols went on an 11-2 run to put Ten-nessee up at halftime leading 51-31. UT gradually built their margin after the half to 31 points on a Syd-ney Smallbone three-pointer and again when Alexis Hornbuckle drove the court and made an under-handed shot beneath the basket. Hornbuckle ended with 13 points, six assists, fi ve rebounds, fi ve steals and two blocks. Alex Fuller had one of her strongest games as a Lady Vol with a then career-high 18 points and four rebounds. Rookie Angie Bjorklund scored 16 points on four three-pointers,. Tennessee coach Pat Summitt earned her 950th win.

WE ATTRACT A CROWD Of the Lady Vols’ top 100 all-time attended games, 10 contests against Texas have made the list. The largest crowd ever to see Tennessee and Texas play was in Knoxville, Tenn., on Dec. 9, 1987, when a then-world record crowd of 24,563 packed Thompson-Boling Arena. The Longhorns spoiled the Lady Vols party tagging a 97-78 defeat on the home standing team. The biggest crowd to show up in Austin was Thanksgiving night 2004 when 11,254, saw Texas knock off #1-ranked Tennessee, 74-59.

THE SERIES WITH TEXAS This marks the 31st meeting between the two schools (Tennessee leads 18-12) dating back to the 1978-79 season. Since 1986-87, Tennessee has held a 17-8 advantage in the se-ries and has won 16 of the last 21 meetings. In the 2005-06 meeting with Texas, UT produced the biggest victory margin ever in the series, 41 points, 102-61. Still, Texas has dealt the Lady Vols three of the worst defeats in school history. On Dec. 11, 1984, Texas won by 31 points (91-60 in Austin), on Dec. 1, 1985, Texas won by 22 points (74-52 in Knoxville), and on Dec. 9, 1987 by 19 points (97-78 in Knoxville).

TEXAS HAD TENNESSEE’S NUMBER Texas had Tennessee’s number in four con-secutive games from 2002-04. With the mini-run, the Longhorns broke a 10-year, 13 loss skein to the Lady Vols. During the four game losing span, which (ironically) found the Lady Vols at the Final Four each season, Tennessee averaged an ane-mic 61.7 ppg while the Longhorns averaged 69.0 ppg in these contests. UT broke the streak with a 41-point drubbing over Texas in 2005, 102-61, and ironically missed the 2006 Final Four.

JUST ONE OT The only overtime game in the series was the 1996 meeting in Austin when the Lady Vols won by a 68-65 margin

UT-TEXAS FACING THE RANKED Tennessee is slated to face 12 ranked teams in 14 games this season while Texas is expected to face seven ranked teams in nine games.

SURPRISE, SURPRISE With all of the national prominence gener-ated by Tennessee and Texas throughout the years, it is amazing that the two teams have never met for an AIAW or NCAA title, or even a playoff game. In 2003, it looked as if the tra-ditional powerhouses would meet in the NCAA title game. However, UConn slipped past Texas and met the Lady Vols in the title game instead.

IT WAS 13 IN A ROW Until Texas broke the streak on Feb. 12, 2002, in Knoxville, the Tennessee Lady Vols had registered 13 wins in a row over the Longhorns and dominated the 1990s with an undefeated slate.

‘BOUT THAT HAT STORY No telling what can happen when over 150 women’s basketball coach-es, administrators, and supporters of the Kay Yow/WBCA Cancer Fund get together at a live auction. Such was the case on Sept. 18, 2009 at the second an-nual 4Kay™ Golf Classic

(Greensboro, N.C.) charity auction and gala at the Grandover Resort and Conference Center. After a number of Kay Yow signature items, designated by Coach Yow to benefi t the Fund, were auctioned off, the follies began. Lady Vol coach Pat Summitt volunteered her pink sparkly cowboy hat (borrowed from Traci Smith) for an impromptu live auction item, com-plete with an autograph to the winning bidder. After the bidding exceeded $1000, Summitt stepped in and offered $2000, on the condition that Texas as-sistant coach Mickie DeMoss wear the hat during a 2009-10 regular season game. Virginia Tech head coach Beth Dunkenberger volunteered to increase the bid if Texas head coach Gail Goes-tenkors would wear the hat to coach a televised game. Further negotiations and generosity from the assembled coaches led to a total $10,000 con-tribution, and Goestenkors and Summitt agreeing to each wear a similar hat to coach their December 6th ESPN2 televised match-up in Knoxville, Tenn., in continued public support of the Fund.

2009-10 LINE-UP COMBINATIONS During the 2009-10 season, Tennessee has used three starting lineups --Games Rec. Line-up (F-F-C-G-G)1, 3-5 4-0 Johnson, Spani, Cain, Bjorklund, Stricklen2 1-0 Johnson, Manning, Cain, Bjorklund, Stricklen6 1-0 Johnson, Stricklen, Spani, Bjorklund, Bass

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 games), FSN/FOX Sports and SportSouth (9), Comcast South-east Sports (4), SEC Network (3) and statewide MyNetworkTV (1). Upcoming TV games include: Texas (ESPN2), Rutgers (ESPNU) and Louisville (SportSouth). The Lady Vols are 5-0 on TV this season. In the 2007-08 season, UT had a school record 36 TV appearances.

IS THERE A BIG 12 DIVISION FOR US? This season, Tennessee might qualify for divi-sional play in the Big 12. The Lady Vols have four opponents on its schedule from that conference. UT defeated #7/4 Baylor in Knoxville (74-65)... traveled to San Antonio and knocked off Texas Tech, 91-53 and now entertains #17 Texas on Dec. 6 and Okla-homa on Jan. 3 in Thompson-Boling Arena.

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 concussion suffered in the UCLA game. The

Game Notes • Tennessee vs. Texas • Dec. 6, 20096’3” 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 career high 23 points (11-15 FG) to go along with seven re-bounds.

ANGIE B LOOKING TOWARD 1,000 POINTS Lady Vol junior Angie Bjorklund is now just 250 points away from 1,000 career points. She scored 318 as a rookie and 344 as a sophomore. This season, she has 88 to date for a career total of 750. She will become the 34th all-time player to reach the 1,000 point club.

YOU’D TELL ME I WAS LYING... If I told you that two Lady Vols were ranked

1 and 2 in Southeastern Conference Field Goal accuracy this week. Sophomore Alyssia Brewer is leading the way shooting .727 (16-22) for fi ve games. Just behind her is Glory Johnson (the pre-vious leader) who is tossing in .607 of her fi eld goal tries (34-56). Last season, Brewer shot 41 percent on the season (73-178) while Johnson connected on 40 percent (109-270).

COACH DLady Vol assistant basketball coach Daedra

Charles-Furlow, affectionately known as “Coach D,” announced on Dec. 1 that she is dealing with medical issues. “I am dealing with some personal medical issues at this time,” said Charles-Furlow. “It is possible that there may be times when I am unable to travel. For that reason, I decided to make this announcement since it will affect my duties as recruiting coordinator.” A former Lady Vol Olympian and All-American, Charles-Furlow joined the Lady Vol staff in May 2008 replacing Nikki Caldwell who accepted the head coaching position at UCLA. “Daedra’s health and well-being is our fi rst con-cern,” said head coach Pat Summitt. “While she will continue with her assistant coaching duties on the bench, there may be times when, as the basketball recruiting coordinator, she is unable to travel. Daedra is so passionate about recruiting our student-athletes,” said Summitt. “During the next several months she needs to be focusing on her health. For that reason, I will be designating my special assistant, Stephanie Glance, to fi ll this temporary role.”

CROWDS A PLENTYPlaying 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) – in-cluding 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.

NOGGIN KNOCKERSThe Lady Vols only had nine players available to

play against George Washington on Dec. 1. Tennes-see starting sophomore pivot Kelley Cain missed the game with George Washington due to a con-cussion suffered in the UCLA game after dropping

in eight points and grabbing 11 rebounds against the Bruins. Cain also missed some time last sea-son 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. Sidelined were four post players -- 6’1” Am-ber 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 concus-sion. 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.

BJORKLUND MOVING THE CHAINS Tennessee junior sharpshooter Angie Bjork-lund has climbed into sole possession of fourth place on the Tennessee three-point career charts. She has 150 made treys for her career moving her ahead of Shannon Bobbitt (2006-08). Ahead of Bjorklund are Brittany Jackson in third with 161...Kara Lawson in second with 256 and Shanna Zol-man leading the pack with 266.

FROM THE TRAINING ROOM Several Lady Vols have been nicked up al-ready this season and qualify for “Moshak’s Medi-cal Moments.”

Vicki Baugh-Continuing to rehab from torn ACL suffered in the 2009 game at Oklahoma. Partici-pates in practice and pulls herself when the knee “talks” to her.Kelley Cain- Concussion suffered against UCLA.Faith Dupree- Dealing with back spasms. Will sit out this season. Glory Johnson- Suffered a left shoulder injury in practice (Nov. 11) but is a full go wearing a shoul-der sleeve.

STAFFERS HAVE -- NEVER A FORMER PLAYER ...have come back and dropped an “L” on Coach Pat Summitt and the Lady Vols. Former Tennes-see player and assistant coach Nikki Caldwell looked like her UCLA Bruins might be the fi rst to pull the upset on Nov. 28 in Knoxville. 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 “nega-tive history fi rsts.” The roll call goes like this: Sylvia Hatchell, Sharon Fanning, Jane Albright, Lea Henry, Nancy Darsch, Trish Roberts, Mickie DeMoss, Matthew

Game Notes • Tennessee vs. Texas • Dec. 6, 2009Mitchell, 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 for-mer 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 de-feat 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 Mickie DeMoss and last year Matthew Mitchell turned the trick as a head coaches at Ken-tucky, (DeMoss 66-63, on Jan. 26, 2006 and Mitch-ell 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 Tournament 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 Cata-mounts lost 94-43. The most recent former Lady Vol hoopsters to take on their former coach: UT All-American and San Francisco head coach Tan-ya 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. They player to try the knock-off - -UCLA’s Nikki Caldwell.

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 an-nounced in the post game talk to the team that they had earned their locker room back to thunderous cheers from the team.

RANKED TIDBITS Tennessee is 2-0 against ranked opponents this season in six total games played. The Lady Vols opened the season with a 74-65 win over #7/4-ranked Baylor and took a 77-63 win on the road at #12/17-ranked Virginia. Next game against a ranked opponent will come against #17/17-ranked Texas on Dec. 6 in Knoxville.

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 physi-cian Dr. Becky Morgan) felt that the best course of action 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 re-bound. In San Antonio at the ESPNU Road to the Championship, she played 18 minutes and tossed in fi ve points, grabbed six rebounds and had three assists in 18 minutes against Texas Tech. Tennes-see’s roster now drops to 11 active 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.

JOINING THE LADY VOL FOLD University of Tennessee Lady Vol basketball head coach Pat Summitt announced the early sign-ing of two student-athletes to National Letters of Intent for the 2010-11 academic school year. 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 post-game center court jump circle huddle with their op-ponents. Before the game with Baylor, UT junior Angie Bjorklund invited the Lady Bears to join them for a postgame prayer. Each opponent has fol-lowed suit meeting at center court after the game for the moment of thanks.

1200 GAMES Coach Pat Summitt coached in her 1,200th college 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 recorded the 1100th win in program his-tory.

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 prog-ress toward graduation and maintaining a cumula-tive 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 annual 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 previ-ous year and expectations for the 2009-10 college

Lady Vol Basketball • Eight-Time NCAA Champions (1987-89-91-96-97-98-2007-08)

Game Notes • Tennessee vs. Texas • Dec. 6, 2009basketball season. The Naismith Trophy present-ed by AT&T will be awarded at the 2010 NCAA Women’s Final Four in San Antonio, Texas.

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 at Thompson-Boling Arena to open the 2009-10 season. The Morrilton, Ark., native scored 25 points, grabbed a career-best 14 rebounds, 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.

600TH WIN Tennessee’s win over Baylor to open the 2009-10 season was Lady Vol Coach Pat Sum-mitt’s 600th victory over a non-conference team. She is now 604-129 versus non-conference oppo-sition over 36 seasons.

ESPNU ROAD TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP The Lady Vols took the ESPNU Road to the Championship (formerly the ESPNU Women’s Basketball Invitational) when it defeated Texas Tech in Nov. 17. The preseason women’s bas-ketball 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 basket-ball championship.

GET THIS... It’s a fact that Tennessee has produced some of the greatest players ever in women’s col-legiate basketball. It’s a little known fact that there has only been one double-fi gure rebounder in the history of the program -- Olympian and Kodak All-American Patricia Roberts. Roberts hauled in 14.2 rpg (467 total) in her only season as a Lady Vol in 1976-77. She also claimed scoring honors with 29.9 ppg (987 points). In 2006-07, Candace Parker came the closest to a double-fi gure re-bounding average but had to settle for 9.8 rpg.

GOT THE PATCH Six Lady Vols are proudly displaying VOLScholar patches on their jerseys this semester -- Briana Bass, Angie Bjorklund, Kelley Cain, Glory Johnson, Alicia Manning and Sydney Smallbone. The VOLSchol-ar program is an initiative of UT’s

Thornton Athletics Student Life Center which is a comprehensive academic and citizenship-building

program that has gained enthusiastic support from UT’s men’s and women’s athletic teams. Student-athletes earn the right to wear the VOLScholar patch on their uniform by achieving a 3.0 grade-point average during the previous fall and/or spring semester.

POLLSTERS The Tennessee Lady Vols started the season in somewhat unfamiliar territory in the Top 25 Pre-season polls. The Associated Press placed UT in the eighth position to start the season, while the ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll had UT in ninth spot. Last season, UT started in seventh in the AP and sixth in the coaches’ poll. Tennessee’s start in the AP poll is the lowest since the 1985-86 season when UT started in the number nine spot.

HIGH SCHOOL TO LADY VOL TEAMMATES This season marks the fourth time in Lady Vol Basketball history (under Summitt) that high school teammates are taking to the fl oor in a Tennessee uniform. Freshman post Faith Du-pree joins fellow Webb School teammate and UT sophomore Glory Johnson in the line-up this season. Previously, Cherokee H.S. (Canton, Ga.) teammates Debbie Groover and Cindy Ely roamed the paint from 1977-81; Baldwin Co. H.S. (Milledgeville, Ga.) teammates Val Freeman and Lisa Webb played from 1983-88 -- both even tore ACLs one week apart as sophomores, and Shel-byville Central H.S. (Tenn.) teammates Michelle Johnson and Tiffany Woosley played during the 1991-95 seasons.

HEY! WE LOVE A HAPPY MEAL The Tennessee Lady Vols lead the nation with the number of McDonald’s High School All-Americans on their roster in 2009-10 with nine players. Tennessee’s McDonald’s All-Americans: Vicki Baugh, Angie Bjorklund, Alyssia Brewer, Kel-ley Cain, Amber Gray, Glory Johnson, Alicia Man-ning, Shekinna Stricklen and Taber Spani.

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 college head coach -- a heartbreak-ing 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 consecutive season openers.

ALWAYS A HOT TICKET Joe Arnone, UT Associate AD for Ticket Op-

erations, says Lady Vol season ticket sales have been steady despite the disappoint-ment of the 2008-09 season. As of Nov. 11th, 10,011 season tickets had been sold. Last season, over 10,400 season tickets were sold.

THOMPSON-BOLING ARENA • WELCOME TO “THE SUMMITT”

The playing court in the Thompson-Bol-ing Arena on the University of Tennessee campus donned a new look for the 2005-06 season. After Lady Vol coach Pat Sum-mitt passed Dean Smith for most NCAA collegiate basketball wins of all-time with a 75-54 win over Purdue on Mar. 22, 2005,

Lady Vol Basketball • Eight-Time NCAA Champions (1987-89-91-96-97-98-2007-08)

Game Notes • Tennessee vs. Texas • Dec. 6, 2009UT 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 orange with “SEC” reversed out; the gi-ant jump circle/mid-court TENNESSEE was given a new brighter color scheme, and “The Summitt,” Coach Summitt’s actual signature adorns the side-lines opposite the team benches.

300 WINS IN TBA Tennessee recorded its 300th win in Thompson-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 Univer-sity of Southern California on Nov. 18, 2001, 106-66. UT has now amassed a 310-20 (.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 campaign, 1996-97, 1999-00, 2001-02, 2003-04, 2005-06 and 2008-09 sea-sons. 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), Connecti-cut (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 Summitt took over as head coach in 1974. Summitt has won 91.4 percent of all home games in 36 years producing a 460-45 overall record. Home losses (in the Summitt era) in-clude: 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 69 times. The 1987-88 team hit triple dig-its in seven games to lead the NCAA.

IN OVERTIME Tennessee is 26-14 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. It tied the mark set in 1996-97, when the Lady Vols were 3-1 in overtime contests losing to Georgia, 94-93, and defeating Texas, 68-65, Vanderbilt, 92-79 and 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.

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 fi ve home games. The last time UT lost on the road was on Feb. 26, 2009 at LSU, since then, UT has won two road games. 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 1-0 on a neutral court.

OVER 500 GAMES VS. RANKED Tennessee’s game versus #12 Georgia on Feb. 16, 2006 was the Lady Vols’ 500th all-time versus a ranked team since the inception of the polls in 1976. UT is an amazing 415-156 (.725) versus ranked teams. The 2008-09 Lady Vols were a dismal 4-8 versus ranked teams.

SEC COACHES TAB LADY VOLS The Southeastern Conference unveiled its sixth annual women’s basketball preseason All-SEC fi rst and second teams, Thurs., Oct. 30, to tip-off the 2009-10 season of SEC women’s bas-ketball. In addition, the coaches voted on a pre-dicted order of fi nish, overall champion and a pre-season Player of the Year. In the closet vote yet, Tennessee was predicted to win the South-eastern Conference regular season championship 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. Mississippi State, Georgia, Vanderbilt and South Carolina round out the top half of the league with Florida, Auburn, Ar-kansas, Ole Miss, Kentucky and Alabama round-ing out the lower half. LSU senior guard Allison Hightower was named SEC Women’s Basketball Preseason Player of the Year. Joining Hightower on the All-SEC First Team were Arkansas’ C’eira Ricketts, Georgia’s Ashley Houts and Angel Rob-inson, LSU’s LaSondra Barrett, Mississippi State’s Alexis Rack and Tennessee’s Angie Bjorklund and Shekinna Stricklen. Second team consists of Au-burn’s Alli Smalley, Georgia’s Porsha Phillips, Ken-tucky’s Victoria Dunlap, Ole Miss’ Bianca Thomas, Mississippi State’s Armelie Lumanu and Chanel Mokango, Tennessee’s Glory Johnson and Van-derbilt’s Merideth Marsh and Hannah Tuomi.

LADY VOLS PICKED NUMBER TWO BY MEDIA The Tennessee Lady Vols were predicted to fi nish second in the Southeastern Conference this season following a vote by a select panel of both SEC and national media members. LSU was picked to win the 2010 SEC women’s basketball championship. 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 An-gie Bjorklund for the Second Team. LSU’s Allison Hightower was the overwhelming choice of the me-dia for SEC Women’s Basketball Player of the Year with 18 votes, the remaining votes were for LSU’s Lasondra Barrett and Tennessee’s Angie Bjork-lund. Joining Hightower on the All-SEC First Team were Georgia’s Ashley Houts and Angel Robinson, Mississippi State’s Alexis Rack and Tennessee’s Shekinna Stricklen. Second team consists of Ar-kansas’ C’eira Ricketts, LSU’s LaSondra Barrett, Ole Miss’ Bianca Thomas, Tennessee’s Angie Bjorklund and Vanderbilt’s Merideth Marsh.

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.

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.”

Thompson-Boling Arena (10,619)

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.

Thompson-Boling Arena (12,824)

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: 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.

Thompson-Boling Arena (14,176)

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.

Thompson-Boling Arena (12,840)

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.
