TECH OPENS WITH A WIN Texas Tech opened the 2009-10 season with a 91-52 victory over Sam Houston State, 91-52, at home in the United Spirit Arena. The SHS Bearkats took advantage of a slow start-ing Lady Raider team to lead most of the fi rst 12 minutes. TTU got its act together and the momen-tum shifted as the Lady Raiders started chipping away at the Bearkats’ six-point advantage. Tech regained the lead at 18-16 on a pair of free throws by Jordan Muphree at 8:27. It was a lead Tech would never relinquish as the Lady Raiders led 45-27 at the half. Tech continued to play strong into the second half, going on a 12-5 run the fi rst three and a half minutes. From there it was all the Lady Raiders as they took a 39-point lead with 1:54 to go in the game. Kierra Mallard led all scor-ers with 15 points, while Ashlee Roberson had her fourth career double-double with 14 points and 11 rebounds. Barncastle also added 14 points, while Jordan Murphree and Tilmila Martin each fi nished with 10 points. The Lady Raiders shot 53.7 per-cent from the fi eld, connecting on 36-of-67 shot attempts and they outrebounded the Bearkats 51-30.

4-1-1 ON TEXAS TECH Texas Tech returns fi ve letterwinners, including three starters, from last season’s 16-15 overall (6-10 Big 12), and welcomes two redshirt freshmen and fi ve true freshmen. Among the veterans returning are seniors Jordan Murphree, Ashlee Roberson and Tilmila Martin. Murphree is Tech’s top returning scorer after averaging 11.3 points per game. The other two returnees are sophomores Jordan Barncastle and Kierra Mallard. Mallard, one of the top freshmen in the Big 12 last year, is Tech’s top returning rebounder at 7.9 boards per outing and is the second leading returning scorer at 9.8 points. Mallard led all Big 12 freshmen last year in scoring and rebounding and is the league’s top returning rebounder among all classes this year. Sophomore Kaylan Talley and freshman Lindie Kimbro will see their fi rst action after sitting out last season. The Lady Raiders also have fi ve freshmen in Marissa Ashton, Chynna Brown, Mary Bokenkamp, Christine Hyde and Monique Smalls.

OUR LAST MEETING WITH TEXAS TECH The top-seeded Tennessee Lady Vols ad-vanced to the “Elite Eight” for the 10th time in the last 11 years with a 75-59 victory against fourth-seeded Texas Tech at the Liacouras Center in Philadelphia on March 27, 2005. UT opened the game playing well at both ends of the fl oor, as it connected on fi ve of its fi rst six shots from the fi eld (and held TTU to 0-of-8 shooting to start the contest) and took a 10-4 lead at the fi rst media time out. Shortly thereafter, the Lady Vols utilized a 10-2 run, capped by a Sybil Dosty put-back, to take a 15-point advantage, 23-8. While the Lady Raiders answered with a 6-0 spurt, Shyra Ely sank three straight baskets to push the margin back to 15 points, 29-14, with 5:56 left in the opening frame. TTU scored six of the fi nal eight points of the fi rst half, but UT still held a comfortable 40-26 lead at the break. As they did to start the game, the Lady Raiders struggled at the offensive end of the fl oor early in the second half, connecting on just one of their fi rst eight attempts, as the Or-ange and White quickly pushed the advantage to 20 points, 48-28. Refusing to go down without a fi ght, Texas Tech methodically cut the lead to 11 points, 52-41, during the next fi ve minutes, forc-ing Coach Pat Summitt to call a time out with 9:14 remaining. The time out paid dividends, however, as the Lady Vols rattled off an 8-2 run and the Lady Raiders could get no closer than 13 points the rest of the way. Individually, UT was paced by Shyra Ely, who scored a game-high 23 points on 8-of-11 shooting. Additionally, freshman Nicky Anosike continued her impressive play in the NCAA Tournament by recording a double-double (11 points, 11 rebounds).

SUMMITT HAS FACED CURRY In the previous fi ve meetings with Texas Tech, Lady Vol Coach Pat Summitt matched wits with fellow Women’s Basketball Hall of Famer Marsha Sharp. This marks Summitt’s fi rst meeting with Kristy Curry sitting on the Texas Tech bench. The Lady Vols faced the Purdue Boilermakers once while Curry was the head coach of the Big Ten school and it was a game for the history books. On Mar. 22, 2005, Summitt’s Lady Vols delivered a 75-54 win over Purdue in the Second Round of the NCAA Tournament in Knoxville, Tenn. The win marked the 880th of Summitt’s career and moved her past Dean Smith of North Carolina for the most wins ever by an NCAA coach -- men or women. After the Lady Vols defeated Purdue, the next team they met and defeated in the NCAA Tourney was... Texas Tech.

Five years earlier the two teams met on March 27, 2000, in the NCAA Mideast Regional Fi-nal at the Pyramid in Memphis, Tenn., as the Orange & White downed TTU by a 57-44 count to advance to the program’s 12th NCAA Final Four held in Philadelphia, Pa. The two programs opened their series on March 25, 1995, at Thompson-Boling Arena in the NCAA Mideast Regional Final as UT defeat-ed the Lady Raiders 80-59 on the way to a title game tilt with eventual national champion Connecticut. The two squads contested a home-and-home series over the 1995-96 and 1996-97 seasons as UT took an 81-44 home victory and a 79-71 win in Lubbock, Texas.

UT VS. BIG 12 Tennessee currently holds a 44-14 re-cord all-time against 11 teams from the Big 12, including a perfect 7-0 mark in NCAA Tourna-ment play. Twelve of those losses, however, have come at the hands of Texas, with the other defeats credited to Colorado in 1981 and Oklahoma in 2009.

UT-TEXAS TECH FACING THE RANKED Tennessee is slated to face 11 ranked teams in 13 games this season while TTU is expected to face seven ranked teams in 11 games.

ESPNU ROAD TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP

The ESPNU Road to the Championship (formerly the ESPNU Women’s Basketball In-vitational) is a preseason women’s basketball doubleheader that 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. Not only is the AT&T Center a great venue for basketball (it’s the home of the NBA’s Spurs and WNBA’s Silver Stars), San Antonio is a great sports city. San An-tonio is the host city for the 2010 NCAA women’s basketball championship.

WE TOOK THE ROAD In 2007-08 season, the Tennessee Lady Vols were invited to the inaugural ESPNU Wom-en’s Basketball Invitational in Tampa, Fla., site of the 2008 Final Four. It marked the fi rst meeting of the CP3s -- Tennessee’s #3 Candace Parker and Oklahoma’s #3, Courtney Paris. The Lady Vols registered a 70-67 victory over Oklahoma in 2007 at the St. Pete Times Forum in the ESPNU Classic in Tampa, Fla. Tennessee returned to the same venue a little over four months later to win the 2008 NCAA Final Four defeating Stanford in the title game.

SECOND VISIT TO SAN ANTONIO The Tennessee Lady Vols visited San Antonio seven years ago when the 2002 Final Four was held at the Alamodome. Unfortunately, UT ran into an undefeated Connecticut buzz-saw who would not be denied an NCAA title as the Huskies

dropped the Lady Vols and then crushed Okla-homa for the championship.

UT IS STILL ‘DUNK U’ -- FOR NOW... Baylor rookie Brittney Griner appears to be poised to take the title of “Dunk U” away from the University of Tennessee. In her career opening game in Knoxville on Nov. 15, the Lady Vols never let her get a clear shot to the basket and so, for now, only one woman has dunked in UT’s home gym. Griner made her collegiate debut in the State Farm Classic in Thompson-Boling Arena where former Tennessee Lady Vol All-America Candace Parker threw down four dunks on “The Summitt” and seven overall during her career. For now, Parker still leads a group of six women who have dunked in a collegiate women’s bas-ketball game. Parker, with seven career dunks, ranks ahead of former Lady Vol Michelle Snow (1998-2002) who recorded three dunks during her career at Tennessee. Parker’s fi rst dunk in Thompson-Boling Are-na occurred on Nov. 12, 2006. The then-Lady Vol sophomore All-American gave UT fans the dunk they had been waiting to see at home. In the second half, UT was leading Chattanooga, 75-43 when Parker stole the ball from the Lady Mocs’ Brooke Hand near the sideline. The 6-4 forward took off for the other end of the court and slammed the rock in with her right hand with 16:02 left in the game as cheers shook the Arena. Prior to Parker’s dunking exploits, UT’s Mi-chelle Snow dunked three times as a Lady Vol. Unfortunately, the dunks occurred on the road at Maui, South Carolina and Vanderbilt. In Snow’s fi nal game at Thompson-Boling Arena, she went in to dunk against Notre Dame in the waning sec-onds of UT’s NCAA Second Round victory over the Irish, but she was practically tackled and fouled hard and the dunk never went down.

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.Faith Dupree- Dealing with back spasms off and on. Full go.Glory Johnson- Suffered a left shoulder injury in practice this week but is a full go.

GOT THE PATCH Six Lady Vols are proudly displaying VOLScholar patches on their jerseys this se-mester -- Briana Bass, Angie Bjorklund, Kelley Cain, Glory Johnson, Alicia Manning and Syd-ney Smallbone. The VOLScholar program is an initiative of UT’s Thornton Athletics Student Life Center which is a comprehensive academic and citizenship-building program that has gained en-thusiastic 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.

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.

POLLSTERS The Tennessee Lady Vols will start the sea-son in somewhat unfamiliar territory in the Top 25 Preseason polls released in the last few weeks. The Associated Press has UT in the eighth po-sition to start the season, while the ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll has 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, Kelley Cain, Amber Gray, Glory Johnson, Alicia Manning, Shekinna Stricklen and Taber Spani.

ELITE COMPANY Rookie forward/guard Taber Spani became 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 Tennes-see. The list of opening day rookie starters: Taber Spani 2009, Glory Johnson and Shekinna Strick-len, 2008, Angie Bjorklund, 2007, Candace Park-er, 2005, Shyra Ely 2001, Ashley Robinson 2000, Gwen Jackson 1999, Kyra Elzy 1996, Chamique Holdsclaw 1995, Tiffani Johnson 1994, Bridgette Gordon and Sheila Frost 1985.

Game Notes • Tennessee vs. Texas Tech • Nov. 17, 2009THE 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), Ali-cia Manning (56) and Kelley Cain (57) all earned starting assignments becoming the 53rd-57th fresh-men to earn the honor. Angie Bjorklund became the 52nd all-time Lady Vol to start during 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 rook-ie 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 start-ing 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 players earn a starting nod as Loree Moore, Shyra Ely and Brittany Jackson all started at some point in their rookie careers.

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 disappointment 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-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 perma-nent 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 giant jump circle/mid-court TENNES-SEE 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 Thompson-Boling Arena when the Lady Vols defeated the Stan-ford 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 308-20 (.942) record since the Orange and White moved into the Thomp-son-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 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 Summitt took over as head coach in 1974. Summitt has won 91.4 percent of all home games in 35 years producing a 459-45 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 69 times. The 1987-88 team hit triple digits 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, De-Paul, 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 Tex-as, 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 over-time. 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 three home games. The last time UT lost on the road was on Feb. 26, 2009 at LSU, since then, UT has not played a 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 has not played on a neutral court.

Game Notes • Tennessee vs. Texas Tech • Nov. 17, 2009OVER 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 414-156 (.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 basketball. In addition, the coaches voted on a predicted order of fi nish, overall champion and a preseason Player of the Year.

In the closet vote yet, Tennessee was pre-dicted to win the Southeastern Conference regu-lar 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 confer-ence play. Mississippi State, Georgia, Vanderbilt and South Carolina round out the top half of the league with Florida, Auburn, Arkansas, Ole Miss, Kentucky and Alabama rounding 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 Robinson, LSU’s LaSondra Barrett, Mississippi State’s Alexis Rack and Tennessee’s Angie Bjorklund and Shekinna Stricklen. Second team consists of Auburn’s Alli Smalley, Georgia’s Porsha Phil-lips, Kentucky’s Victoria Dunlap, Ole Miss’ Bianca Thomas, Mississippi State’s Armelie Lumanu and Chanel Mokango, Tennessee’s Glory Johnson and Vanderbilt’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 bas-ketball 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 Angie Bjorklund for the Second Team.

LSU’s Allison Hightower was the over-

whelming choice of the media 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 Bjorklund. Joining Hight-ower 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 Arkansas’ C’eira Ricketts, LSU’s LaSondra Barrett, Ole Miss’ Bianca Thomas, Tennessee’s Angie Bjork-lund and Vanderbilt’s Merideth Marsh.

LADY VOLS OWN ALL-TIME WINS MARK Tennessee is the all-time wins leader in the NCAA and is just one win from earning program victory number 1,100. The next closest program all-time in terms of wins is Louisiana Tech, which owns a 953-195 record. The Lady Vols boast a 1,099-250-2 (.814) all-time record.

STAFFERS HAVE, BUT NEVER A PLAYER No former Lady Vol who has joined the col-legiate coaching ranks has ever beaten Head Coach Pat Summitt. This year Nikki Caldwell (UCLA) and Tanya Haave (University of San Francisco) will try to accomplish the feat. Former players are 0-6 against their mentor.

2009-10 LADY VOL SCHEDULE NOTES Coach Pat Summitt has once again put to-gether a demanding schedule for her squad. In 2009-10, the Lady Vols will face 14 NCAA Tour-nament teams from a year ago and four teams that played in the WNIT. The slate includes three of the four squads who played in the 2009 Final Four, a home match with SEC Champion Auburn and a double-date with SEC Tournament cham-pion Vanderbilt.

FRESHMEN AT TENNESSEE When Pat Summitt started freshmen guard/forward Shekinna Stricklen and forward Glory Johnson on Nov. 15, 2008, against San Fran-cisco, it marked the 11th and 12th times in her coaching career that a freshman started her very fi rst game at Tennessee. The list of opening day rookie starters: Angie Bjorklund, 2007, Candace Parker, 2005, Shyra Ely 2001, Ashley Robinson 2000, Gwen Jackson 1999, Kyra Elzy 1996, Chamique Holdsclaw 1995, Tiffani Johnson 1994, Bridgette Gordon and Sheila Frost 1985.

THE NOD Last season, Stricklen and Johnson become the 53rd and 54th Lady Vols all-time to start during their freshman season. Briana Bass became the 55th to earn the nod. Alicia Manning was the 56th and Kelley Cain became the 57th when she start-ed against Alabama. As a rookie, Angie Bjork-lund 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 fresh-man Candace Parker played and started in all 36 games her rookie season in 2005-06. A sea-son 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 Horn-buckle 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 rookies.
