The All-Time Series Against the Tigers Tennessee leads its all-time series against Auburn by a 26-18 count, having won 14 of the last 19 meetings between the two programs dating back to 2006. UT is just 9-10 overall at Jane B. Moore Field on “the Plains” of Auburn, but is on a two-game winning streak at the road site after rebounding from an opening loss in 2010 to secure a series win by scores of 2-1 and 5-3. During the coaching tenure of Co-Head Coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly, Tennessee is 20-12 overall against the Tigers and 5-7 on the road in Auburn. Over the last few seasons the series has been closely contested with nine of the last 12 match-ups being settled by one or two runs. Included is a 2-1 (8 inn.) AU victory in Auburn back on March 30, 2008, and a pair of extra-inning Tennessee wins in Knoxville (2-1 in 11 inn. - April 11, 2009); 2-1 in 10 inn. - April 1, 2011). Last season at Lee Softball Stadium, Tennessee won its series against the Tigers two-games-to-one. Kelly Grieve blasted first pitch of the 10th inning for a HR in a 2-1, series-opening UT win. Then the two squads took turns posting routs as Auburn took Saturday’s contest 9-1 before the Big Orange rebounded for a 8-0 (6 inn.) triumph in the finale. The teams met in the SEC Tournament semifinals in Oxford, Miss., on May 13, with Ten- nessee prevailing 2-1 on the way to its second league tourney crown. Can’t Catch Raven! Opposing catchers must have nightmares consisting of Tennessee speedster Raven Chavanne swiping bases. The Thousand Oaks, Calif., native hasn’t been thrown out on the base paths since back on March 11, 2011, at Kentucky, during which time she HAS STOLEN 36 CONSECUTIVE BASES without being caught. The junior third baseman has played in 76 games for the Big Orange over that stretch. Ivy’s Surging Once Again... Junior pitcher Ivy Renfroe has made a habit of getting stronger as seasons go on during her career at Tennessee. If her recent performance is any clue, the Jackson, Tenn., native may be beginning her surge at a vital time as UT ventures into the late conference and postseason slates. The 6-0 right hander got this recent upswing started with a tremendous 11-inning effort in a tough loss at #1 Alabama on March 21 and has con- tinued it to four consecutive decision victories since that defeat, including one over #9/10 Georgia. Over her last seven starts, Renfroe is 4-1 with five complete games, three solo shutouts and 40 strikeouts over 40 innings. She enters the series at Auburn having permitted just two runs over her last 28.1 frames.

Big Orange Slices...The All-Time Series Against the Tigers Tennessee leads its all-time series against Auburn by a 26-18 count, having won 14 of the last 19 meetings

between the two programs dating back to 2006. UT is just 9-10 overall at Jane B. Moore Field on “the Plains” of Auburn, but is on a two-game winning streak at the road site after rebounding from an opening loss in 2010 to secure a series win by scores of 2-1 and 5-3.

2012 LADY VOL SOFTBALL HONORSNotes...

A Rugged Early Slate Tennessee hasn’t been bashful about facing off against top competition thus far in 2012. The Big Orange

has already faced off against 13 TEAMS THAT WERE PART OF THE 2011 NCAA TOURNAMENT FIELD OF 64, posting a 12-7 record in those match-ups. Included are victories over #1 and defending national champion Arizona State, San Diego State, Texas Tech, Western Michigan, #20/17 Georgia Tech, Illinois State, Memphis, #3/4 Florida, #1 Alabama, Kentucky (two wins) and #9/10 Georgia with losses against #4/3 Cal, at #13 Texas, vs. #3/4 Florida (two defeats), #1 Alabama, Kentucky and #9/10 Georgia.

It’s a Walk-Off ! No...not that kind of walk-off like from the movie “Zoolander,” but rather softball victories in the final at-bat.

Tennessee owns FOUR WALK-OFF WINS during the 2012 campaign, two of the run-rule variety and another two via regulation, with all of them occurring at Lee Softball Stadium. The first came during an 8-0 (5 inn.) tri-umph over ETSU on March 3 as junior Whitney Hammond singled in the winning tally in the fifth. On March 9 in the series opener against #3/4 Florida, a Gator error on a dropped throw at first with two outs in the bottom of the seventh allowed Shelby Burchell to plate the winning run in a 1-0 victory. A passed ball in the sixth al-lowed junior Melissa Brown to cross from third and end the second game of the DH against Furman on March 27, 8-0 (6 inn.). Most recently, with a storm threatening to end the series finale against Kentucky in a 2-2 tie on April 1, Burchell proved heroic, beating the rain by approximately three minutes with a walk-off, two-run HR to center field as Tennessee rallied past UK, 4-2.

Just Say No...Hitter Tennessee pitchers have already totaled TWO NO-HITTERS this season, improving the program’s all-time

total to a staggering 38. Sophomore Ellen Renfroe registered her first collegiate no-hitter with an 8-0 (6 inn.) victory over Furman on March 27. Her sister, junior Ivy Renfroe, picked up her fourth career no-hitter, blanking Murray State back on March 4 during the Tennessee Classic. The duo has also just missed putting up two more no-nos this season. Ivy blanked Furman until there were two outs in the top of the seventh on March 27 before allowing a single, while Ellen permitted a HR with two outs in the top of the seventh to #9/10 Georgia on April 4.

Four-time All-American Monica Abbott leads UT’s career no-hitter list with an amazing 23 no-nos, while Ivy Renfroe rates second with four, followed by Megan Rhodes (three), Stephanie Humphrey and Stacey Jennings (two each), Ellen Renfroe, Buffy Walker, Leigh Ann Ellis and Jackie Beavers (one each).

Taking a Look at the Ratings Percentage Index (RPI) The most recent NCAA Ratings Percentage Index (RPI) has been released for 2012 (April 2) and the South-

eastern Conference currently boasts four of the top 15 teams (#2 Alabama, #3 Florida, #12 TENNESSEE, #14 Georgia), and seven of the top 31 (#20 LSU, #24 Auburn, #31 Mississippi State). The RPI is one of the factors utilized by the NCAA in handing out tourney seeds and slots in the annual Field of 64. Tennessee already owns wins over RPI #2 Alabama, #3 Florida and #5 Arizona State this season.

Put Raven Out There to Start...She’ll Likely Be There Anyway Raven Chavanne makes a habit of getting the Lady Vol offense off and running to open games. The Thou-

sand Oaks, Calif., native has now reached base leading off UT’s first turn at the plate 16 TIMES IN HER 29 GAMES (55%) during 2012. Included in that total are nine singles, two triples, a double, three walks and a hit by pitch.

In opportunities leading off any inning for Tennessee during her career in the Orange & White, CHAVANNE HAS NOW REACHED 126 TIMES IN 240 TOTAL CHANCES OR 53% OF THE TIME she’s had an opportunity to set the table for the UT offense (23-of-45 in 2012, 51%)

OVERALL AND SEC STATS (as of 4/5)Quick Out of the Gate The Lady Vols usually waste no time in jumping on their opponents, as Tennessee has registered at least

one run during the first inning in 16 of their contests in 2012 and are 11-5 in those match-ups. The largest outburst of the campaign in the initial frame was six tallies during a 10-3 win at Mississippi State on March 26. IN FACT, 33 OF THE LADY VOLS’ RUNS HAVE COME IN THE FIRST INNING, MARKING IT AS THE HIGHEST-SCORING FRAME FOR THE BIG ORANGE THIS SEASON.

Exceptional Ellen! Tennessee sophomore pitcher Ellen Renfroe picked up this year right where she left off in 2011, roaring

through the Kajikawa Classic with a 5-0 record, a 1.13 ERA, three solo shutouts and 48 strikeouts in 31 innings of work.

The Jackson, Tenn., native didn’t allow a run over her first 27 innings of the season, topped the 10+ strike-out mark on three different occasions and fired a shutout against #1 and defending national champion Arizona State on its home field. Over the last two years the 6-0 right-hander has also downed the previous year’s na-tional champion, defeating the 2010 champ UCLA (7-1) on Feb. 26, 2011, and now 2011 champ Arizona State on Feb. 11, 2012.

For her efforts, Renfroe was tabbed as the SEC Pitcher of the Week (Feb. 14) for the third time in her career and was chosen as a “Primetime Pacesetter of the Week” by CollegeSports360.com.

The 2011 All-American currently heads into the Auburn series as one of the top pitchers in the nation, sporting a 19-3 record, a 1.11 ERA and 204 strikeouts. In league play she’s at 7-3 overall with a 1.09 ERA, and with wins over #3 Florida back on March 9 and over #1 Alabama on March 21, has now registered SIX CAREER VICTORIES OVER TEAMS RATED #1, #2 OR #3 IN THE POLLS AT THE TIME OF PLAYING.

She was named the SEC Co-Pitcher of the Week on March 26, after going 3-0 with a 0.78 ERA on UT’s “Spring Break” road trip to #1 Alabama and Mississippi State. Until allowing a pair of runs at #1 Alabama in a 5-2 UT win on March 21, Renfroe had recorded a streak of 27 STRAIGHT SCORELESS FRAMES that began on March 9 vs. #3/4 Florida. Renfroe currently leads all of NCAA Division I in shutouts with 13, is third in victories and 15th in K’s as of April 1.

Watch Out for the Lady Vol “Big Inning” The Lady Vols have long made the “Big Inning” a major part of its offensive repetoire. So far in 2012,

Tennessee has plated at least three runs in an inning 26 TIMES. In fact, UT has posted at least one three-run outburst in a frame during 21 OF ITS 37 GAMES played this season. To this point the largest single frame scoring total came in the third inning of UT’s 9-0 (5 inn.) win over Georgia Southern as the Big Orange put up seven tallies.

Got Talent on the UT Bench! Tennessee is currently second in the SEC in total pinch hits with 11 this season over 37 at-bats and guides

the league in pinch-hit batting average at .297 (11-for-37). Two of those 11 pinch hits have been home runs as senior Cat Hosfield and sophomore Melissa Davin came off the bench to blast big flies during victories over Georgia Southern on March 13. Most recently, senior utility player Shelby Burchell blasted a pinch-hit, two-run double in the 8-0 (5 inn.) win at Arkansas on March 16 and senior Holly Baker had a RBI single in the sixth frame of a 10-3 win at Mississippi State (March 24).

Putting an End to Streaks... Tennessee has made a habit over the past few seasons of putting an end to some lengthy winning streaks

by the opposition.

The Lady Vols ended #1 Alabama’s 26-GAME WINNING STREAK with a 5-2 triumph on March 21, 2012, and #3/4 Florida’s 10-GAME WINNING SKEIN on March 9, 2012, with a 1-0 victory in the two teams’ series opener at Lee Softball Stadium.

During the 2011 campaign, UT managed to stop Georgia’s 37-GAME HOME VICTORY STREAK that dated back to April 2010, ceased then-#1 Alabama’s 13-GAME WINNING STREAK with a 4-1 home win on March 22 and later rolled in Baton Rouge, La., over April 15-17, ending then #21 LSU’s 11-GAME VICTORY RUN. Back during the 2010 NCAA Super Regionals, the Big Orange visited Ann Arbor, Mich, and stopped THEN-NO. 2 MICHIGAN’S TWO-YEAR-LONG, 36-GAME HOME STREAK.

When Facing #1 The Big Orange improved its all-time record against #1 to 7-14 with a 3-0 shutout win over #1 and defend-

ing national champion Arizona State back on Feb. 11, at the Kajikawa Classic in Tempe, Ariz., and by splitting a DH (L, 2-3 in 11 inn., W 5-2) at #1 Alabama on March 21 in Tuscaloosa, Ala. The UT program also owns prior vic-tories over #1 Alabama (two regular-season wins-2007; regular-season win in 2011), Michigan (win at WCWS-2005) and UCLA (win at WCWS-2006).

The Lady Vols have now faced off multiple times against #1 during a single campaign on six occa-sions: 2000 (0-3 vs. #1 UCLA), 2005 (0-1 vs. #1 Cal, 1-1 vs. #1 Michigan), 2007 (2-0 vs. #1 Alabama), 2009 (0-4 vs. #1 Florida), 2011 (1-1 vs. #1 Alabama). and 2012 (1-0 vs. #1 Arizona State, 1-1 at #1 Alabama) The most victories over #1 in a single season is two, occurring in 2007 when UT swept the Crimson Tide in a home DH at Tyson Park on May 6, 2007, and in 2012 with wins over Arizona State and Alabama.

Who Scores First REALLY Matters A trend is developing in 2012 as the team that scores first during Tennessee softball contests usually ends

up putting the “W” in the victory column. THE LADY VOLS ARE 26-6 THIS YEAR WHEN TALLYING THE FIRST RUN ON THE SCOREBOARD AND JUST 2-3 WHEN THEIR OPPONENT SCORES FIRST. The only occasions that saw the Big Orange score first and lose were one-run defeats suffered against #13 Texas, Winthrop and #1 Alabama, a 4-1 loss at Arkansas, a 5-3 defeat to Kentucky and a 3-1 (11 inn.) loss to #9/10 Georgia.

Two Outs Just Means It’s Time to Produce Two outs in an inning...that just means its time to do some serious damage if you’re Tennessee. The Lady

Vols have now registered 62 two-out RBIs this season, meaning 38% of their total RBIs have come with two retired in a frame.

Ring-A-Round the Lineup Card Tennessee’s offense has made a habit in recent years of taking numerous trips through the batting order

while putting up big run totals. So far in 2012, the Lady Vols have turned the trick 10 TIMES, including per-forming the feat in back-to-back innings during the victory over Murray State (3/4). Tennessee has also sent eight batters to the dish on nine other occasions, just missing adding even more turns through the batting or-der to its overall total. UT sent a season-high 12 batters to the plate in scoring six tallies during the fourth inning of the triumph over Memphis (3/3). A list of the turns through the batting line-up is below:

Date Opponent Inning No. of batters Runs Scored Feb. 9 UCSB 5th 9 batters 3 runs Feb. 17 Illinois 4th 9 batters 5 runs March 3 Memphis 4th 12 batters 6 runs March 4 Murray State 1st 9 batters 4 runs 2nd 9 batters 4 runs March 13 Ga. Southern 3rd 10 batters 7 runs March 16 at Arkansas 5th 9 batters 5 runs March 24 at Miss. State 1st 10 batters 6 runs March 25 at Miss. State 4th 11 batters 6 runs March 31 Kentucky 2nd 9 batters 5 runs

Walk This Way! The Tennessee Lady Vols are taking the art of drawing walks to a high level thus far in 2012. UT boasts

144 FREE PASSES OVER THE FIRST 37 GAMES OF THE SEASON FOR A 3.9 WALK-PER-GAME RATE. At this current pace, the Big Orange would draw approximately 218 free passes over a standard 56-game regular season. The school record of 268 walks established by the 2008 squad over 66 contests. Tennessee drew a season-best 13 free passes during the 9-6 win over Western Michigan on Feb. 12.

Junior second baseman Lauren Gibson is currently tied for third in the league lead with 30 walks.

A Fixture in the Rankings! The Lady Vols have a habit of fi nding themselves in the rankings according to the USA Today/National Fast-

pitch Coaches Association (NFCA) poll. TENNESSEE HAS NOW BEEN RANKED IN EACH OF THE LAST 128 POLLS DATING BACK TO THE PRESEASON RELEASE OF THE 2004 SEASON.

A big opening weekend in ‘04 boosted UT from unranked status into the Top 25 at No. 19 and the squad hasn’t left since. The highest ranking achieved by Tennessee during that span occurred in 2007 when UT spent 11 consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the way to a national runner-up fi nish.

Tennessee opened the 2012 campaign at #9 in the ESPN.com/USA Softball poll and at #14 in the USA Today/NFCA rankings.

Dominant in February & March Since the Weeklys Arrival Since the Weeklys arrived in 2002 to take over the Tennessee program, the team has seen incredible success

during the opening month of the season. IN FEBRUARY, THE BIG ORANGE BOAST A RECORD OF 153-29-1 SINCE STARTING 2002 AND ARE A STAGGERING 106-13 SINCE THE BEGINNING OF 2005.

Tennessee won 33 straight February contests during a streak that stretched from the opening of the 2006 campaign through part of 2008 until a 4-1 loss to USF on Feb. 17, 2008. The only February defeats since ‘05 are to No. 1 California (2005), Notre Dame (2005), USF (2008), No. 21 and eventual ‘09 national champ Washington (2009), No. 6 and eventual ‘10 national champ UCLA (2010), UCF (2010), Pacifi c (2010), No. 10 & 19 Stanford (2010 & 2011), UNLV (2011), #4/3 California (2012), #13 Texas (2012) and Winthrop (2012).

IN THE MONTH OF MARCH, TENNESSEE OWNS A 190-49 RECORD SINCE OPENING THE 2002 CAM-PAIGN. The best month during that eight-year stretch occurred in 2007 when the Lady Vols went 24-2 overall.

Another Impressive Streak! Once SEC play is officially underway, the Tennessee Lady Vol softball team definitely doesn’t make losing

in non-conference action a habit. In fact, the last time UT took a break from an in-progress SEC regular season campaign and dropped a non-league contest was way back on April 23, 2003, with a 1-0 loss to Virginia Tech at the State-Line Classic in Bristol, Tenn. The Big Orange has since won 74 CONSECUTIVE GAMES versus non-conference, regular-season opponents during breaks from its rugged SEC slate.

Opening the Conference Slate The Big Orange now stands at 10-6 all-time in Southeastern Conference openers after topping #3/4 Florida

Notes...

in the 2012 league lidlifter at Lee Stadium on March 9, 1-0. With sophomore pitcher Ellen Renfroe three-hitting the powerful Gator line-up while recording a season-high 15 strikeouts, UT managed a walk-off victory in the bottom of the seventh inning. Senior utility player Shelby Burchell got the decisive rally started with a lead-off single, eventually moving to third via a sac bunt and a groundout. Lady Vol freshman pinch hitter Hannah Akamine hit a bouncer that just cleared the glove of UF pitcher Hannah Rogers before being fielded on the run by Florida’s second baseman Katie Medina. Her toss to first was in time, but was dropped as Burchell cruised home to set off Big Orange jubilation. Bitten by the Injury Bug The injury report has already been a major factor in the early part of Tennessee softball’s campaign. Lady Vol junior third baseman and two-time NFCA All-

American (2010, 2011) Raven Chavanne suffered an avulsion fracture of her right thumb in January, necessitating surgery that kept her out of action through the Kajikawa Classic (Feb. 9-12). Expected to return for a few at-bats during the Time Warner Invitational in Austin, Texas, over Feb. 17-19, weather issues limited her opportunities and kept her off the field. Chavanne returned to the line-up with a vengeance at the NFCA Leadoff Classic in Clearwater, Fla., hitting .632 overall on the way to Most Valuable Player honors and has played every game since.

Junior outfielder (2010 All-American and 2011 NFCA All-Southeast Region selection) Kat Dotson continues her recovery from off-season surgery on her right knee. She played in just two games at the Kajikawa Classic before being declared unavailable for the remainder of the weekend, but did get at-bats in the desig-nated player spot at the Time Warner Invitational, the NFCA Leadoff Classic amd the Tennessee Classic. The Savannah, Ga., product is considered day-to-day with her potential for playing depending on the current condition of her injury.

Home Openers = Victory Throughout Lady Vol softball history, the first contest of the year in the friendly confines of either Tyson Park or Lee Softball Stadium has usually equaled victory

for the Orange & White. Tennessee has won its last 12 home openers dating back to a 6-5 home-opening loss to Kansas on March 10, 2000, and holds a 16-1 MARK ALL-TIME IN KNOXVILLE LIDLIFTERS. Under the guidance of co-head coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly, UT is a perfect 11-0 in such match-ups. The Big Orange christened the 2012 home campaign with a commanding 7-0 victory over Memphis on March 3.

Tennessee Classic History Since getting back in the business of hosting tournaments with the opening of the Lee Softball Stadium prior to the 2008 season, the Lady Vols have registered

a PERFECT 24-0 MARK (20-0 combined in the 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 & 2012 Tennessee Classics and 4-0 at the 2010 Tennessee Invitational). Since the Weeklys ar-rival to start the 2002 campaign, UT is 34-0 in its home-hosted, regular-season tourneys. Over the entire 17-year program history, the Big Orange maintains a 85-13 overall mark in regular-season tournaments in Knoxville.

Great Against Teams in-State! The Lady Vols have made a habit of dominating its series’ with in-state schools since starting the UT program in 1996. All-time, the Orange & White is now an

incredible 100-3 OVERALL against a combination of 10 Tennessee schools. Co-head coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly have gone 66-0 against in-state programs since arriving at Rocky Top. UT HAS ALSO WON 72 STRAIGHT GAMES AGAINST IN-STATE OPPONENTS SINCE SUFFERING ITS LAST DEFEAT BACK ON MARCH 22, 2000, AGAINST MTSU. In fact, two of Tennessee’s three all-time in-state losses came against Chattanooga when coached by...Karen Weekly in 1999.

The Lady Vols are 17-0 against Austin Peay, 16-0 against Tennessee Tech, 17-1 versus Middle Tennessee, 15-0 versus ETSU and 14-0 against Belmont. UT is also 9-0 versus Tennessee State, 6-0 against Lipscomb, 3-2 against Chattanooga, 2-0 versus Memphis and 1-0 against UT-Martin.

We Love the Spotlight The Tennessee Lady Vols are SET TO BE FEATURED ON TELEVISION 11 TIMES during the 2012 campaign via ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, SportSouth, CSS or The

Longhorn Network (at Texas on Feb. 19). UT is 2-3 thus far on television in 2012 with wins over #1 Alabama and #9/10 Georgia and losses to #13 Texas, #1 Alabama and #9/10 Georgia.

Seven of Tennessee’s televised games will take place within the friendly confines of Lee Softball Stadium. UT will make its league television debut on the road at Alabama on March 21 as CSS will disseminate both ends of the doubleheader against the Crimson Tide (5 p.m. ET). The Orange & White makes it TV home debut at Lee Stadium on April 4 with CSS slated to televise both games of the Lady Vols’ DH against Georgia (5 p.m. ET). For a pair of weekends in April, Tennessee might as well call ESPN/ESPNU home as UT will venture down on “the Plains” for an April 7 match-up at Auburn (2 p.m. ET/ESPNU) before returning home to host LSU on April 14 & 15 in a pair of contests to be distributed live via ESPN at noon and 4 p.m. ET, respectively. Finally, the Big Orange will host Ole Miss over April 27-29 with all three contests being shown via SportSouth.

For the third straight campaign, ESPN/ESPN2/ESPNU will broadcast every match-up during the annual SEC Softball Tournament, slated to be held this year in Oxford, Miss. SINCE HEADING OUT TO OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLA., FOR ITS FIRST TRIP TO THE WOMEN’S COLLEGE WORLD SERIES IN 2005, THE TENNESSEE LADY VOL SOFTBALL TEAM HAS BEEN FEATURED ON TELEVISION A STAGGERING 82 TIMES. AN AMAZING 56 OF THOSE 80 HAVE BEEN BROADCAST VIA THE ESPN FAMILY OF NETWORKS.

The Comeback Kids! Down a pair of All-Americans in the line-up, the Big Orange demonstrated its ability to overcome adversity at the Kajikawa Classic in Tempe, Ariz., rallying twice

from deficits to post victories. Down 4-1 to San Diego State through four complete innings, Tennessee erupted for four tallies in the top of the fifth, with the big blow coming via the first

collegiate HR, a two-run shot, by freshman first baseman Cheyanne Tarango. UT ended up holding off the Aztecs, 6-5, as junior Melissa Brown hammered a game-winning, solo shot in the top of the sixth.

With just a few hours of sleep following a late night win over #1 Arizona State and a 6 a.m. wake-up call for a contest against Western Michigan, Tennessee couldn’t be faulted for having some issues with 2011 NCAA Regional team WMU. UT led 4-0 before the Broncos put a five-spot on the board in the top of the fifth inning. UT managed a tally in the bottom of the fifth, before putting the game out of reach via a RBI single from sophomore shortstop Madison Shipman and the second three-run blast of the contest by Melissa Davin.

THE LAST TIME...

Loads of Recent Success vs. the Pac-12 The Lady Vols have enjoyed a great deal of success since the start of the 2005 season against the powerful Pacific-12 Conference. Tennessee is 18-12 IN ITS LAST

30 CONTESTS AGAINST EIGHT MEMBERS OF THE LEAGUE, going 5-5 vs. Arizona, 3-0 against Oregon State, 3-2 against UCLA, 2-0 vs. Oregon, 2-2 vs. Stanford, 1-1 against Washington, 2-0 vs. Arizona State and 0-2 against California. Current Lady Vol players are just 4-7 against the Pac-12, however, but own wins over #1 Arizona State (2/11/11), #2 UCLA (2/26/11), #3 Arizona (WCWS-6/3/10) and Oregon State (2/21/09).

Opened the Season With a “W!” Tennessee is 10-7 all-time in season openers and 8-3 under co-head coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly after topping UCSB, 7-0, on Feb. 9, 2012 at the Kajikawa

Classic in Tempe, Ariz. UT has now won eight of its last nine season openers with the lone loss occurring on Feb. 12, 2010, to eventual national champion #8 UCLA at the NTC Division I Elite Invitational.

Not Our First Visit to Tampa/Clearwater Tennessee softball has long made Tampa/Clearwater, Fla., a stop on its early-season tournament slate. UT has now visited the area to play on eight occasions

(1997, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2005, 2006 and 2012), with an overall record of 27-14-1. Under the guidance of 11th-year Co-Head Coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly, the Big Orange have made four trips to the area (2002, 2005, 2006, 2012), going an impressive 19-3-1. UT had won 13 consecutive contests at the Eddie C. Moore Complex in Clearwater, Fla., before dropping a 2-1 decision to Winthrop of Feb. 24, 2012.

2012 Lady Vol Softball...A Brief Preview This year’s edition of the Big Orange softball squad returned 15 letter-winners, including seven that started at least 31 games in 2011, and welcomed back all 49

pitching victories from the circle. UT bolstered that impressive depth with the addition of a high-profi le class of four newcomers that was rated No. 2 in the nation for 2011 by ESPN RISE.

In all, Tennessee returned 74% of the total hits, 78% of the runs, 67% of the doubles, 75% of the triples, 68% of the home runs, 74% of the RBIs and 83% of the stolen bases from a team that reached as high as No. 3 in the national rankings while completing the 2011 season as the NCAA Division I’s top off ense by batting average (.348).

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

Highlighting the Lady Vol freshman class are Cheyanne Tarango (P/IF, Anaheim Hills, Calif.), Hannah Akamine (C/IF, Escondido, Calif.), Haley Fagan (P/IF, Cor-nersville, Tenn.) and Hannah Trainer (IF, Brentwood, Tenn.). Tarango recently helped the USA Softball Junior Women’s National Team to the ISF Junior Women’s World Championship in Cape Town, South Africa, blasting a game-winning grand slam during a title-winning, 4-1 victory over Japan.

Strength of Schedule Four of Tennessee’s 2012 opponents, Arizona State, Alabama, Florida and California, participated in last season’s Women’s College World Series in Oklahoma City,

Okla. Arizona State swept Florida in the best-of-three title series to win the 2011 national championship. UT will face 16 squads that received bids into last year’s NCAA Field of 64 as well as six that advanced to NCAA Super Regional action. Six Southeastern Conference schools were ranked in either the 2012 USA Today/NFCA or ESPN.com/USA Softball preseason polls. The Big Orange (#9/14) is joined

by fellow league programs (ratings listed as NFCA/USA Softball) Florida (#2/4), Alabama (#3/2), Georgia (#10/12), Kentucky (#13/18) and LSU (#22/tied for 20). The SEC Eastern Division boasted three of the preseason top 12 squads in all of NCAA Division I according to USA Softball and four of the top 14 in the NFCA listing.

Bring on the Extra Softball Tennessee now owns an 11-5 mark over its last 16 extra-inning contests since the start of the ‘09 season. The defeats in extra frames over the last four years occurred

on March 21, 2010, when UT dropped a hard-fought, 7-6 contest to #6 Georgia in eight innings, on March 13, 2011, in Lexington, Ky., when the Big Orange suff ered a heart-breaking, 5-4 loss in 10 innings to #23 Kentucky, on February 19, 2012, in a 3-2 (9 inn.) defeat at #13 Texas, on March 21, 2012, in a 3-2 (11 inn.) loss at #1 Alabama and in a 3-1 (11 inn.) defeat to #9/10 Georgia on April 4, 2012.

The Best of the Best With three inclusions on the Top 50 “Watch List” for the 11th-annual USA Softball National Collegiate Player of the Year award, the No. 9 Tennessee softball squad

equaled Cal, Florida, Michigan and Texas for the most selections by a single program in the nation as Lady Vol junior third baseman Raven Chavanne (top 10 fi nalist last season), junior second baseman Lauren Gibson and sophomore pitcher Ellen Renfroe were each tabbed to the prestigious list.

Tennessee softball can boast at least one player included on the organization’s preseason “Watch List” for nine consecutive seasons (2004-2012), including other former Lady Vol All-Americans such as Monica Abbott, Kristi Durant, Sarah Fekete, Lindsay Schutzler, Tonya Callahan and Tiff any Huff . This marked the sixth time in the last seven years (2006, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011, 2012) that the Lady Vols had at least two players chosen to the national watch list. UT had a program-high four in-dividuals (Abbott, Durant, Fekete, Schutzler) included on the 2006 “Watch List” and three incorporated as part of the “Watch List” in 2007 (Abbott, Callahan, Schutzler), 2011 (Chavanne, Kelly Grieve, Ivy Renfroe) and now 2012. Abbott won the award following her historic 2007 season during which she went 50-5 with a 0.68 ERA and a single-season record 724 strikeouts.

Preseason All-SEC Accolades for Four Lady Vols! Tennessee softball up an impressive four selections to the 13-member 2012 Preseason All-SEC Team as junior third baseman Raven Chavanne, junior second base-

man Lauren Gibson, junior outfi elder Kat Dotson and sophomore pitcher Ellen Renfroe were tabbed to the listing through a vote by the league’s softball coaching staff s.

By virtue of the four inclusions, the Big Orange boasted 31% of the overall members on the squad, tied with No. 3/2 Alabama for the most in the league. No. 2/4 Florida picked up a trio of nods, while No. 13/18 Kentucky and Auburn each received one selection.

Tennessee Among Preseason Faves in SEC & Eastern Division The Tennessee Lady Vol softball squad received fi ve of 11 possible fi rst-place votes for overall champion and was picked second behind Florida in the races for both

the SEC’s regular season and Eastern Division titles according to the 2012 preseason poll of the league’s 11 softball coaching staff s. With 15 accumulated points the Big Orange trailed the defending Eastern Division champion Gators (14 points) by only a single tally in the divisional ranking, while

coming up just a single vote behind UF as the preseason pick for regular-season champion. No. 13/18 Kentucky (32 points), No. 10/12 Georgia (35 points) and South Carolina (48 points) rounded out the fi ve programs in the East. The SEC Eastern Division currently boasts three of the top 12 squads in all of NCAA Division I according to the preseason ESPN.com/USA Softball poll and four of the top 14 in the initial USA Today/NFCA listing.

The two-time defending regular season champion Alabama Crimson Tide (10 points) was the unanimous choice by the coaches to secure the SEC Western Division crown. The gap between No. 3/2 UA and No. 22/20 LSU (19 points) was nine points while Auburn ranked third with 28 tallies. Mississippi State (40 points), Arkansas (46 points) and Ole Miss (54 points) completed the SEC West standings.

Back in the Red, White & Blue! Junior infi elder Lauren Gibson helped the USA Softball Women’s Senior National Team to gold medals at both the World Cup of Softball VI (July 2011) and the

XVI Pan American Games (Oct. 2011). In an announcement made on January 11, 2012, the Pasadena, Md., native found out she was included among the roster of 12 players to the 2012 USA Softball Women’s Senior National Team that will compete at the World Cup of Softball VII in Oklahoma City, Okla., the Canadian Open Fast Pitch International Championship in Surrey, B.C., Canada, and the ISF XIII Women’s World Championship in Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada.

Junior third baseman/outfi elder Raven Chavanne and sophomore pitcher Ellen Renfroe were also included among a group of 11 players that accepted invita-tions to try out for one of the fi ve remaining spots on the 17-member Senior Women’s National Team or for the roster of the 2012 USA Softball Women’s Elite National Team at the USA Softball Selection Camp in June. The Women’s Elite National Team will compete at the 2012 World University Games in Colorado Springs, Colo.

On her way to being chosen as USA Softball’s nominee for the U.S. Olympic Committee’s Female Athlete of the Month for October (2011), Gibson hit an impressive .529 overall (9-for-17) with eight runs scored, a double, three triples, a HR and eight RBIs while going 3-for-3 on stolen bases and slugging at a 1.118 clip during the Red, White & Blue’s gold medal run at the Pan Am Games in Guadalajara, Mexico. The second baseman was 1-for-2 for Team USA during the title match-up against Canada, blasting a tone-setting, fi rst-inning solo home run to go along with three runs scored and an RBI in the 11-1 (4 inn.) triumph.

Making a Memorable First Impression If freshman pitcher Cheyanne Tarango gets a start in the circle, the Anaheim Hills, Calif., native will attempt to become the 11th Lady Vol pitcher to win in her

starting debut. Former Lady Vols Christy Anch, Sarah Ayres, Leslie Poole, Buff y Walker, Megan Rhodes, Monica Abbott and Ashton Ward join Cat Hosfi eld and both Ivy and Ellen

Renfroe as the only hurlers to claim their initial starts at Tennessee. At the Stetson Leadoff Classic in DeLand, Fla., on Feb. 12, 2001, then-freshman Ellen Renfroe became the 10th Lady Vol pitcher to win her starting debut while

clad in the Orange & White by tossing a complete-game, three-hit shutout with six K’s versus Stetson. On Feb. 14th, 2010, her sister Ivy Renfroe became the fi rst UT pitcher to down a ranked team in her initial start by beating #10 Oklahoma. Abbott tossed a no-hitter in her collegiate lidlifter in an 8-0 win over St. Mary’s to open the 2004 campaign.
