game winning streak over the Lady Monarchs dat-ing back to the 1996-97 season. The last time ODU defeated the Lady Vols was

on Jan. 7, 1997, 83-72 in Norfolk, Va. UT fans will recall that loss and the famous

Coach Pat Summitt speech in the HBO documen-tary, “The Cinderella Season.” “If you continue to work hard and play that way

in March, you’ll be cutting down nets,” said Summitt.

Noting Old DominionTidbits

Tonight’s contest will be the fi rst game where a Pat Summitt team faces off against a Lady Monarch squad without Wendy Larry or Marianne Stanley at the helm of ODU.

The Lady Monarchs entered the 2011-12 season re-turning seven players and losing four of fi ve starters from a team that fi nished second in the Colonial Ath-letic Association and earned a bid to the WNIT.

ODU has had eight diff erent players score double fi g-ures in at least one game so far this season...Tia Lewis leads the way with eight.

Lewis leads ODU and is fourth in the CAA in scoring with 18.1 points per game and fi fth in rebounding at 9.7 rebounds per game.

Our Last Meeting with ODU Meighan Simmons tied Candace Parker by reaching

double fi gures in her fi rst nine collegiate games and the No. 9/8 Tennessee Lady Vols used a debilitating full-court pressure to rout Old Dominion, 74-44, on Dec. 5, 2010, in front a record crowd of 7,774 at the Ted Constant Center.

The Lady Vols (8-1) made 13 steals, forced 22 turn-overs and scored 20 points off of the Lady Monarchs’ (3-3) givebacks.

Junior forward Alicia Manning and sophomore guard Kamiko Williams led the stellar defensive eff ort by recording three steals apiece, as ODU shot just 30.9 percent from the fi eld.

While Manning and Williams’ wreaked havoc on the defensive end, Simmons continued her fantastic of-fensive play this season.

The Cibolo, Texas, native made a fade-away jumper with her body angled behind the hoop before barely beating the halftime buzzer with a running bank shots to give her 11 at the intermission.

She fi nished with 14 and was one game away from tying Glory Johnson, who started her career with 10 double-fi gure scoring games. Chamique Holdsclaw (14 games) is the only other Lady Vol to start her ca-reer on such a prolifi c pace.

Tennessee’s fi rst basket of the second half didn’t come until the 16:34 mark when Angie Bjorklund drilled a

three-pointer to put Tennessee ahead 45-26. Bjorklund scored Tennessee’s fi rst eight points of the

second half. Old Dominion senior guard Jasmine Parker became

the 28th Lady Monarch to score 1,000 career points. She scored a game high 16 points.

The win pushed UT’s win streak to 15 games over Old Dominion and gave Tennessee a 35-9 all-time record in the series.

The 4-1-1 on ODU Before facing Tennessee, Old Dominion’s JoNiquia

Guilford scored a career-high 14 points but the Lady Monarchs late comeback fell short losing to Maryland Eastern Shore, 63-59, on Dec. 21 at the Ted Constant Center.

Down eight with under two minutes to play, the Old Dominion (3-9) got back in the game with nine quick points to cut the lead to one with 29 seconds left on a three-point play from Guilford.

UMES missed two free throws to give ODU a chance, but the Lady Monarchs turned the ball over and the Hawks Chelsea Sanders hit a foul shot to ice the game.

ODU’s Tia Lewis fi nished with her fi fth double-double of the season, scoring 11 points, all in the second half and 12 boards. Guilford was 5-of-12 from the fl oor and had six rebounds to go along with her 14 points.

Versus the Colonial UT currently holds a 30-9 record versus four teams

from the Colonial Athletic Association. All-time, the Lady Vols have a 1-0 record versus George Mason and Georgia State, a 2-0 record versus James Madi-son and a 35-9 slate against ODU.

Lowest Ever The 42 points scored by Old Dominion in the 2004

meeting were the fewest ever scored by either team in the series.

UT’s Winning Streak Goes Back to 1997 The Lady Vols have won the last 15 meetings with

the Lady Monarchs. The last time ODU claimed victory dates back to the memorable locker room scene in January 1997 from the HBO Special, “The Cinderella Season.”

In the movie, Coach Pat Summitt promised her team that if they played as hard as they did against the Lady Monarchs that night, they’d be around in March. They were.

The 15 consecutive wins over ODU started in the next meeting between the two teams -- in the 1997 NCAA title game won by the Lady Vols, 68-59.

OLD DOMINION SERIES Tennessee leads the series with Old Do-minion, 35-9. The two teams began their series during the 1976-77 season at the AIAW Region II Championships and have played every year since that time. During the late 1970’s and early 1980’s the meetings were generally for an AIAW nation-al title. UT has dominated the series of late win-ning 15 consecutive and 30 of the last 31 games.

SERIES TIDBITS UT has met ODU 44 times since 1977 -- that is surpassed only by SEC teams--Vanderbilt 65, Georgia 57, Kentucky 55, LSU 53 and Alabama 46 meetings. Eight of UT’s games with ODU came in the post-season with games in 1980 (ODU 68-53),1981 (UT 68-65), and 1997 (UT 68-59) occurring at two AIAW and one NCAA Final Four, respectively. ODU defeated UT for the title in 1980 while UT beat the Lady Monarchs in the 1981 semifi nals to advance to the AIAW title game. In 1997, UT beat Old Dominion for the NCAA title.

Back to Winning WaysThird Time this Season

Tennessee looks to rebound from a loss for the third time in the 2011-12 season.

The Lady Vols dropped a 97-80 decision at Stanford on Dec. 20.

It marked the fi rst time an opponent dropped more than 90 points on UT since Feb. 26, 2006 vs. Florida (UF 95, UT 93 (OT).

Three Losses The Lady Vols head into the game with Old Domin-

ion with three losses on the 2011-12 season. Tennessee collected just three losses in the entire

2009-10 and 2010-11 seasons going 32-3 and 34-3, respectively.

ing into January was the 2004-05 season. The Lady Vols were 8-3 overall and had lost at

#4-ranked Texas, 74-59; to #10/9-ranked Duke, 59-57, and at #24-ranked Rutgers, 65-51.

Good News/Bad NewsMassengale Back

Lady Vol rookie point guard Ariel Massengale was cleared to play on Dec. 20.

Massengale had missed the previous three games (#20/21 DePaul, #11 Rutgers and UCLA after suff er-ing an injury to her left hand in practice on Dec. 8.

The starting rookie guard made a brief 11 minute second half appearance against Stanford.

She is expected to be in the starting line-up against Old Dominion.

Spani Day-to-day Lady Vol junior Taber Spani has been dealing with a

bone bruise in her left knee since the loss at Virginia. On Dec. 26, she participated in one-half of the prac-

tice and did not practice on the 27th to rest the limb. She is now listed as day-to-day.

TENNESSEE VS. OLD DOMINION DEC. 28, 2011

Things to ConsiderFresh Start

Old Dominion, 3-9 overall, rolls into Knoxville when the Lady Vols are looking to get back on the win-ning track.

A good news statistic for Tennessee is the Lady Monarchs record in Thompson-Boling Arena.

UT is 13-0 vs. ODU in TBA since the doors opened in 1987.

UT turned Scarlet at Stanford Tennessee’s 17-point loss at Stanford was the Lady

Vols’ worst “L” since losing 71-55 against Ball State on Mar. 22, 2009, in the First Round of the NCAA tournament.

The Cardinal owned the boards against the Lady Vols with a 35-29 advantage.

Stanford also dominated UT in the paint by a 40-18 margin.

Stricklen = Ironwomen Senior Shekinna Stricklen has logged an average

of 37.1 minutes per game over the last four con-tests.

She logged all 40 minutes against Stanford while scoring a career high 27 points.

She managed 33 minutes against UCLA despite fi ghting stomach troubles which sent her to the locker room in the fi rst half.

In the come-from-behind victory at Rutgers, Strick-len sat a handful of second shy of 40 minutes.

In that game, she tossed in 22 points, grabbed nine rebounds and snagged three steals.

Against DePaul, she logged 34 minutes and played 37 versus Texas.

Shoot ‘em Up Against UCLA, Tennessee hit a school record 76 per-

cent (19-of-25) of its shots in the fi rst half eclipsing the previous record of 70.3 percent against Old Do-minion(1/4/89).

On the afternoon against UCLA, Tennessee shot 69.2 percent - the fourth-highest mark in program history.

UT’s season high shooting percentage going into the game was 49.2 percent against Pepperdine (11/13/11).

The Ranked UT’s six ranked opponents within its fi rst 10 games

of the 2011-12 campaign marks the most since play-ing fi ve teams in the AP poll in the fi rst eight games of the 2007-08 season.

Conference Carousel Already this season, the Lady Vols have faced a pair

of teams from three diff erent conferences -- the ACC, the Big 12, BIG EAST and Pac-12.

Against these power conferences, UT recorded a 5-3 record.

Simmons Heating it Up Sophomore guard Meighan Simmons has desper-

ately struggled with her shot for the last couple of week.

“Speedy” fi eld goal average hovered on life sup-port in the 20 percent range.

In the last four games, she has been mostly on tar-get and upped her seasonal FG% to 34.3.

In the loss at Stanford, she scored 13 points and was 5-12 from the fi eld but a dismal 1-5 from three-point land.

Against UCLA, she tossed in a team high 18 points while going 8-for-14 from the fi eld and 2-for-5 from three-point land.

Starting for the injured Ariel Massengale versus DePaul, Simmons knocked in 4-for-7 from the fi eld and followed that up with a 4-for-12 game versus Rutgers.

Against the Scarlet Knights, Simmons drilled back-to-back treys to cushion UT’s single point lead to seven points.

After Simmons knocked in her triples, Taber Spani followed with one for a 10-point Lady Vol lead with 1:53 to play.

From the Chalk BoardMUST Control the Glass

Tennessee had managed to do a better job on the boards since Miami controlled that stat line in game two of the season.

Then in the blink of an eye, the Lady Vols lost the rebounding battle in back-to-back games against UCLA and Stanford.

The Cardinal controlled the boards 35-29 and scored 14 second chance points.

One game earlier, for just the second time this season, an opponent led UT on the boards when UCLA grabbed a 31-28 edge on Dec. 17.

In UT’s defense, the Lady Vols shot 69.2 percent from the fi eld for the game.

The Lady Vols held a decisive rebounding edge over #1-ranked Baylor grabbing 56 rebounds to the Lady Bears’ 42.

UT followed that up with a 53-30 rebounding night against MTSU, a 49-38 display against a tall Texas lineup and a similar line-up against DePaul, 45-42.

It’s Not Better to Give Tennessee has been its own worst enemy turning

the ball over. UT committed a total of 24 turnovers in the loss to

Virginia which led to 29 UVa points but did a little bit better job against Baylor with just 11 miscues leading to 14 Lady Bear points.

The Big Orange fell off the turnover wagon against MTSU and gave up the ball 21 times.

In a sprint fest against Texas, UT’s ball security led to just nine giveaways.

The turnover truck broad-sided Tennessee without Ariel Massengale in the game vs. DePaul.

The Lady Vols surrendered the ball 19 times to DU but ball security improved in the second half.

On the season, UT has generated just 15.9 points off of miscues per game while the opposition is banking 14.8 ppg off of Orange mistakes.

UT leads in second chance points per game at 14.9 ppg with the opposition checking in at 12.3 ppg.

Free Means Free Since enduring a miserable 52.4 percent inaccu-

racy from the free throw line in the loss to Virginia, the Lady Vols picked it up a little against Baylor and MTSU and converted 78 percent from the charity stripe.

Free throw defense struck again in the Texas game as the Lady Vols managed just 12-20 (.600).

The good news? It improved against DePaul as the Lady Vols took 35 trips to the line and knocked in 26 for 74.3 percent.

In the loss at Stanford, UT converted 22-29 FT for 75.9 percent.

On the season, UT’s free throw percentage has climbed to the 70 percent range at 70.4 (164-233) .

Free throws have felt like turnovers for some of the Lady Vols. Senior Glory Johnson has been sent to the line a team high 65 times and connected on 45 for an improved 69.2 accuracy rate.

6 LADY VOL BASKETBALL /// 2011-12 GAME NOTES

TENNESSEE VS. OLD DOMINION DEC. 28, 2011

On Dec. 5, 2011 Summitt joined an elite group of sports superstars when it was announced by Time Inc. Sports Group editor Terry McDonell that she, and Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski, were the 2011 SPORTS ILLUSTRATED Sportswoman and Sportsman of the Year.

On Tues., Dec. 6 Summitt and Krzyzewski were fet-ed at a celebration in New York City and were joined by fellow Sportswomen and Sportsmen Chris Evert (1976), Sugar Ray Leonard (1981), Wayne Gretzky (1982), David Robinson (2003) and David Ortiz (2004).

Summitt and Krzyzewski, the NCAA’s all-time win-ningest women’s and men’s basketball coaches, joined an elite group of sports immortals, including Muhammad Ali, Arthur Ashe, Derek Jeter, Michael Jordan, Billie Jean King, Jack Nicklaus, Bobby Orr and Pete Rozelle to receive this award.

The magazine’s editors have chosen each honoree based on the principles established in 1954, when runner Roger Bannister was honored as SPORTS ILLUSTRATED’s fi rst Sportsman: “While the victory may have been his or hers, it is not for the victory alone that he or she is honored. Rather, it is for the quality of their eff ort and manner of their striving.”

Summitt and Krzyzewski join UCLA’s John Wooden (1972) and North Carolina’s Dean Smith (1997) to round out a veritable Mount Rushmore of college coaches who have received this award.

In 1972, Wooden, who had won his eighth national title in nine seasons, was selected along with Billie Jean King. Smith was honored in 1997, the same year he set the then NCAA wins record and an-nounced his retirement.

Other coaches named Sportsman include Joe Pa-terno (1986); manager Terry Francona (2004, with the Boston Red Sox); Herb Brooks (1980, with the U.S. Olympic hockey team) and Tony DiCicco (1999, with the U.S. Women’s soccer team).

NCAAs Ford Award Tennessee .coach Pat Summitt is the recipient of

the 2012 NCAA President’s Gerald R. Ford Award.. Announced on Dec. 6 the award is named in recog-

nition of former President Gerald Ford, honors an individual who has provided signifi cant leadership as an advocate for intercollegiate athletics over the course of their career.

Summitt is widely known as the foremost ambas-sador for women’s basketball.

NCAA President Mark Emmert said her contribu-tions to intercollegiate athletics over almost four decades go well beyond one sport.

.“Coach Summitt has been recognized numerous times for her contributions to women’s basketball – and rightly so,” Emmert said.

“The Ford Award honors her for what she has meant to intercollegiate athletics through her ca-reer and for the positive example she continues to set today. “

Summitt will be recognized during the opening business session on Jan. 12 at the 2012 NCAA Con-vention in Indianapolis.

Her Lady Vols are playing at Kentucky that night, so Summitt will address the Convention attendees in a taped video message.

We Back Pat To coincide with National Alzheimer’s Disease

Awareness Month the matchup between the No. 6/7 Lady Vols and the No. 1 Baylor Lady Bears on Sun., Nov. 27th was designated as the fi rst of two, “We Back Pat” games.

The Vols will also participate in a “We Back Pat” game in January, when Coach Cuonzo Martin and the Big Orange take on the Connecticut Huskies on January 21st (CBS).

Thousands of fans wore the “We Back Pat” t-shirt to the Baylor game as 16,623 spectators were on hand.

Shirts are still available at The UT Bookstore and Stokely Athletics Center stores, as well as area Food City and Walgreens. The shirts are $10, with $4.25 from every shirt going to research.

In a halftime ceremony at the Baylor game, checked were presented to Alzheimer’s Tennessee and UT Medical Center, as the `We Back Pat’ T-shirts have al-ready generated more than $150,000 in donations. The proceeds will help directly impact those living with the disease in the state of Tennessee.

Announcing the Pat Summitt Foundation Since sharing her diagnosis of dementia in late

August, Lady Vol coach Pat Summitt indicated she would like to start a foundation.

Summitt along with her son, Tyler, have formed a foundation that will fund grants in support of Al-zheimer’s programs. The foundation, The Pat Sum-mitt Foundation Fund (www.patsummitt.org), was announced at halftime of the Baylor game on Nov. 27 in Knoxville.

The aim of her Foundation is to make grants to non-profi t organizations which provide education and awareness of Alzheimer’s, its onset and treatment; support services to patients, their families and care-givers, and research to treat, prevent, cure and ulti-mately eradicate the disease.

“Tyler and I have decided to join this battle, not just for us, but also for the millions of families aff ected by this disease. I have always told our players, our greatest opportunities are disguised as our great-est obstacles. It is time to treat this obstacle as an opportunity and a stepping stone to a cure,” Sum-mitt said.

Amazing Summitt Numbers Pat Summitt’s teams have faced 164 opponents in

1,280 total games and teams from 35 conferences 46% of her 1,280 total games have been played ver-

sus ranked teams (597 total games against ranked opponents) with 434 victories versus ranked op-ponents

Summitt Receives Courage Award The United States Sports Academy presented Lady

Vol Coach Pat Summitt its “Courage” award at the Pepperdine game on Nov. 13.

Trustee emeritus of the USSA, Gene Policinski, was on hand in Knoxville to give Summitt one of the or-ganization’s most prestigious honors -- the Mildred “Babe” Didrikson Zaharias Courage Award.

Citing that, Summitt, the seemingly unbeatable coach, has dementia and she vows to fi ght it, raise awareness and keep on coaching.

The Courage Award is presented annually to an in-dividual who demonstrates courageous action in overcoming adversity to excel in sport. This individ-ual should exhibit the qualities of courage, perse-verance, grace, and strength in sport achievement.

Zaharias’ spirit and zest for life, as well as her cour-age, strength, and achievement, are the qualities for which this award is named. The Babe’s fi ght to overcome life-threatening cancer and then return to the winner’s circle in women’s professional golf has withstood the test of time.

Quick Hitters Rebounds Win Championships

Coach Pat Summitt’s mantra of defense and boards has been a staple of her nearly four decades of coaching.

In two 2011-12 preseason exhibitions contests, the Lady Vols outrebounded the opposition 52.0 rpg to 26.5 rpg.

UT started out the 2011-12 regular season hauling in 54 boards against Pepperdine while the Waves snagged 34.

Tennessee fell off the rebounding wagon in the very next game as Miami controlled the glass collecting 45 boards to the Lady Vols’ 38 total re-bounds. That was a vast improvement over UT’s 13-rebound deficit at halftime to the Hurricanes.

UT corrected the rebounding problem against Vir-ginia, 45-38, with Shekinna Stricklen collecting 14 boards.

Since losing the battle of the boards to Miami, Ten-nessee had not be outrebounded again until it faced UCLA on Dec. 17 and Stanford on Dec. 20.

Overall this season, the Lady Vols hold just a +6.9 rebounding advantage, 44.2-37.3.

Last season, in 37 games, Tennessee was out-rebounded only twice -- by Georgia Tech, 37-36, and vs. Kentucky in the SEC Tournament fi nal, 46-41.

Overall, the Lady Vols held a +12.4 rebounding ad-vantage, 46.3 to 33.9, in 2010-11.

StreakingWe were Streaking into 2011-12

The Lady Vols had a 38-game home court winning streak halted against Baylor on Nov. 27, 2011. It was the third longest in Lady Vol history. Tennessee’s all-time home court winning streak is 69 consecu-tive games from Feb. 2, 1991 to Jan. 6, 1996.

Lady Vol Streaks The Lady Vols last loss at home was against #1 Bay-

lor, 76-67, on Nov. 27, 2011, since then UT is 2-0. The last time UT lost on the road was on Dec. 20,

2011 at Stanford, 97-80. Since then, UT has not played a road games.

The last time the Lady Vols lost on a neutral court was against Notre Dame, 73-59, in the 2011 NCAA Elite 8 game on Mar. 28, 2011. Since that time, UT is 1-0 on a neutral court.

Shekinna Has It Going On Lady Vol senior Shekinna Stricklen has the nation’s

longest starting streak entering the 2011-12 sea-son.

Stricklen has started 114 consecutive games. DePaul senior forward Keisha Hampton started 112

consecutive games before her streak was halted on Dec. 17.

TENNESSEE VS. OLD DOMINION DEC. 28, 2011

Elite CompanyGlory -- Maybe This Season?

It’s a fact that Tennessee has produced some of the greatest players ever in women’s collegiate basket-ball.

It’s a little known fact that there has only been one double-fi gure rebounder in the history of the pro-gram -- 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 her single season on The Hill.

In 2006-07, Candace Parker came the closest to a double-fi gure rebounding average but had to set-tle for 9.8 rpg.

Last season, Glory Johnson fl irted with the elusive double-digit and managed 9.7 rpg.

Johnson is currently averaging 8.3 rpg.Johnson Could be the Fourth

UT senior Glory Johnson needs just 54 rebounds to pass the 1,000 rebound plateau.

Only three other Lady Vols have managed to grab 1,000 rebounds -- Chamique Holdsclaw (1,295), Sheila Frost (1,038) and Tamika Catchings (1,004). Six other UT players snagged over 900 career re-bounds.

TBA - The Place to PlayRocky Top, You’ll Always Be...

Home, sweet home, to me.... On good ole Rocky Top, Tennessee has already entertained the home fans to a scoring bonanza this season averaging 82.5 ppg on The Summitt while holding the oppo-nents to 63.0 ppg. No wonder the Lady Vols aver-age a nation leading 13,249 fans per game.

Toughest Place To Play The University of Tennessee’s Thompson-Boling

Arena is still the toughest women’s basketball arena in the nation to secure a win. The Lady Vols have fashioned a 344-21 all-time record on “The Summitt” for a 94.45 winning percentage since the doors were opened in 1987.

Welcome to “The Summitt” The playing court in the Thompson-Boling Arena

on the University of Tennessee campus donned a new look for the 2005-06 season.

After Lady Vol coach Pat Summitt passed Dean Smith for most NCAA collegiate basketball wins of all-time with a 75-54 win over Purdue on Mar. 22, 2005, UT named the TBA court, “The Summitt.”

The fl oor had a complete overhaul with permanent logos of both the Lady Vols and Vols painted direct-ly in front of the scorer’s table; the free throw lanes were painted orange with “SEC” reversed out; the giant jump circle/mid-court TENNESSEE was given a new brighter color scheme, and “The Summitt,” Coach Summitt’s actual signature adorns the 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 University of Southern California on Nov. 18, 2001, 106-66.

UT has now amassed a 344-21(.941) record since the Orange and White moved into the Thompson-Boling Arena to start the 1987-88 season 25-years ago.

Along the way, the Lady Vols have produced 10 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), 2002-03 (16-0), 2009-10 (17-0) and 2010-11 (17-0).

UT also registered a former NCAA record 69-game

home court-winning streak from Feb. 1, 1991 thru Jan. 2, 1996.

Just 21 TBA 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 21 all-time losses at TBA have come at the hands of just 11 teams: Baylor (2011), 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 Au-burn (1988).

Home Sweet Home 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 91.6 percent of all home games in 38 years producing a 496-46 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.

On the Court100 Point Games Since 1974, the Lady Vols have gone over the cen-

tury mark 76 times. The 1987-88 team hit triple digits in seven games

to lead the NCAA. UT has a record of 73-3 all-time in 100-point games

and a 51-0 record when hitting the century mark at Thompson-Boling Arena.

In Overtime Tennessee is 28-14 all-time in overtime games. UT’s most recent overtime aff air was a 69-64 loss at

Virginia on Nov. 20, 2011. The most OT games in a year was tied in 2003-04

with four as the Lady Vols went 3-1 in overtime los-ing 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 aff air in Knoxville was a 82-72 win over Stanford on Dec. 19, 2010.

Lady Vols Own All-Time Wins Mark Tennessee is the all-time wins leader in the NCAA

with 1,171 victories. The next closest program all-time in terms of wins is Louisiana Tech, which owns a 1,000-212 record (entering the 2011-12 season). The Lady Vols boast a 1,171-259-2 (.827) all-time record.

Staff ers Have, But Never a Player No former Lady Vol who has joined the collegiate

coaching ranks has ever beaten Head Coach Pat Summitt.

Lady Vol HonoreesTrio Named

Lady Vol seniors Glory Johnson and Shekinna Stricklen along with sophomore Meighan Simmons have been recognized among the group of players chosen for the 2011-12 preseason candidate list for the Naismith Trophy as announced on Nov. 30 by the Atlanta Tipoff Club.

The Naismith Trophy is presented annually to the

nation’s top collegiate women’s basketball player and is named in honor of the inventor of basketball, Dr. James Naismith.

UT is joined by Notre Dame and Connecticut as the only institutions with three candidates for the award.

The candidate pool will be trimmed with the selec-tion of the Midseason Top 30 List in February, and that list will be whittled to four fi nalists in March.

The Naismith Trophy will be presented during the NCAA Women’s Final Four, April 1-3 in Denver.

The Tennessee trio has collected accolades throughout the preseason. Johnson made the list of nominees for the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award and was named to the Wooden Award Top 30 list in October. Stricklen joined Johnson on the Wooden Award Top 30 list and was named to the Associated Press Preseason All-America squad. Johnson, Strick-len and Simmons were each named to Preseason All-SEC squads with Stricklen tabbed preseason player of the year.

Stricklen Honored as AP A-A Lady Vol senior guard Shekinna Stricklen was se-

lected as a First Team Associated Press Preseason All-American.

Also joining Stricklen on the fi ve player team were Baylor’s Brittney Griner, Notre Dame’s Skylar Dig-gins, Stanford’s Nnemkadi Ogwumike and Miami’s Shenise Johnson.

Tennessee and Stricklen will face each of those teams this season.

Johnson Named a Lowe’s Nominee Tennessee senior forward Glory Johnson has been

named one of 30 women’s basketball nominees for the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award, presented to stu-dent-athletes who excel on and off the fi eld.

Johnson is one of three nominees from the SEC. To be eligible for the award, a student-athlete must

be classifi ed as an NCAA Division I senior and have notable achievements in four areas of excellence -community, classroom, character and competi-tion. The CLASS award is an acronym for Celebrat-ing Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School and focuses on the total student-athlete.

“Glory is an ideal candidate for the Lowe’s Se-nior CLASS Award,” Head Coach Pat Summitt said, “blending the perfect balance of excellence in the classroom, on the court and in the community. She is our fi rst player ever to graduate in three years and that shows her dedication and discipline toward her academics.”

Johnson captured All-SEC First Team honors in 2010-11 and was a fi nalist for the 2011 State Farm All-America Team.

A Master of Science in Communication candidate, Johnson completed her undergraduate degree in Interdisciplinary Programs with a Concentration in Global Studies and a Specialization in Global Poli-tics and Economy in only three years.

We Love a Happy Meal The Tennessee Lady Vols must lead the nation with

the number of McDonald’s High School All-Amer-icans on their roster in 2011-12 with eight players.

Tennessee’s McDonald’s All-Americans: Vicki Baugh, Glory Johnson, Alicia Manning, Meighan Simmons, Shekinna Stricklen, Taber Spani, Cierra Burdick and Ariel Massengale.

Lady Vols Picked #1 by SEC Media Tennessee was predicted to win the 2012 South-

eastern Conference women’s basketball champi-onship in a voting of a select panel of both SEC and national media members.

Tennessee topped the order of fi nish with 264 points, with Georgia (228), Kentucky (212), LSU (189), Vanderbilt (172) and Florida (151) round-ing out the top half of the league. Arkansas (142), South Carolina (107), Auburn (94), Alabama (55), Mississippi State (54) and Ole Miss (48) round out the bottom half.

Tennessee’s Shekinna Stricklen was the over-whelming choice of the media for SEC Women’s Basketball Player of the Year with 16 votes, the re-

maining votes were for Georgia’s Jasmine James, LSU’s LaSondra Barrett and Tennessee’s Glory

Johnson. Stricklen, a 2011 State Farm All-American and SEC

MVP averaged 12.8 points and 7.3 rebounds per game last season.

UT sophomore Meighan Simmons, the 2011 SEC Rookie of the Year, was selected to the second team. Simmons is the Lady Vols returning scorer at 13.5 ppg.

Joining Stricklen on the All-SEC First Team are Georgia’s Jasmine James, Kentucky’s A’dia Mathies, LSU’s LaSondra Barrett and Tennessee’s Glory Johnson.

Second Team included Arkansas’ C’eira Ricketts, Ole Miss’ Valencia McFarland, Simmons, and Vanderbilt’s Stephanie Holzer.

2011-12 Archive NotesWas Happy to be in Cali

Lady Vol starting center Vicki Baugh is excited to be in her home state of California.

The Sacramento native, who missed almost 21 months on the court due to ACL surgeries, will be making her fi rst appearance in Los Angeles since her rookie season in 2007-08.

Baugh is fi nishing her UT eligibility in grad school. She will receive her Master’s in kinesiology in May.

From BIG EAST Week to Pac 12 Week Last week, the Lady Vols took on two teams from the

BIG EAST facing #20/21-ranked DePaul (an 84-61 win on Dec. 11) and #11-ranked Rutgers on Dec. 13 (a 67-61 win).

This week, Tennessee engages in Pac 12 Week facing UCLA (an 85-64 win) and at #4-ranked Stanford (a 97-80 loss)on the road.

One of the Days of Christmas Somewhere in the Lady Vols version of the “Twelve

Days of Christmas” there should be a verse of “Stan-ford Comes A’ Callin’.”

Over the last 20-plus years, Tennessee and Stanford have traditionally met in mid-December and typi-cally served as a measuring stick for each other re-gardless of the outcome.

In December games against the Cardinal, UT leads the series 16-6.

Summer Fun Please excuse Glory Johnson, Shekinna Stricklen,

Nnemkadi and Chiney Ogwumike if they are caught up in conversation and laughter before the game.

The foursome spent part of their summer as USA basketball teammates at the 2011 World University Games in Shenzhen, China.

Team USA posted a perfect 6-0 record. The Red, White & Blue captured the gold medal with a

101-66 victory over Taiwan.Playing in Front of a Full House

The games versus both Stanford and UCLA were announced as advance sellouts.

Last season, UT played in front of capacity crowds at Louisville (22,124), Old Dominion (7,774), Baylor (10,569) and Auburn (7,536).

Massengale Making Progress Starting rookie point guard Ariel Massengale is

making progress in recovering from a dislocated fi nger.

In the last couple of days, she has returned to the court to take some light reps.

The protective cast-like material was removed prior to the team traveling out west.

On Dec. 8, Jenny Moshak, University of Tennessee Associate Athletics Director for Sports Medicine, announced that Massengale had suff ered a dislo-cated fi nger in practice and would possibly be out of the lineup for two to three weeks.

The week previously, the rookie from Bolingbrook, Ill., collected the fi rst conference honors of her collegiate career as she was named SEC Women’s Basketball Freshman of the Week following her outstanding performance in UT’s wins over Middle

TENNESSEE VS. OLD DOMINION DEC. 28, 2011

Tennessee and (then) No. 20/21-ranked Texas. On the season, Massengale is averaging 7.2 ppg

and 5.8 apg for the No. 7/8-ranked Lady Vols. Missing Miss Massengale In the three games with out Ariel Massengale, ball

security has been an issue. Tennessee has committed 50 miscues in the last

three games. UT lost the ball an improved 15 times at UCLA.

However, those 15 miscues led to 15 Bruin points. Against #11-ranked Rutgers, UT had 16 turnovers

(including three off ensive fouls). UT evenly spaced the miscues with eight in each

half. At the start of the game against DePaul, the Lady

Vols certainly looked like they were very much missing freshman point guard Massengale.

In the fi rst fi ve minutes, all fi ve starters lost the ball at least once for a total of six UT miscues.

Tennessee managed to settle down over the next 15 minutes of the half and lost the ball just seven times.

Despite shuffl ed line-ups in the second half, UT committed just six turnovers in the next 20 min-utes.

Taber is Clutch Since suff ering a bone bruise against Virginia on

Nov. 20, junior Taber Spani has struggled a bit with her game.

In her last two contests, she looks like she is on the way back.

Against UCLA, she drilled 4-of-6 treys and was 5-for-7 from the fi eld for 14 points.

Following a couple of “not so Taber” performances, she was one of the second half sparks in the win over Rutgers.

Spani drilled a death ray trey with 1:53 left to give UT a comfortable 10-point lead, 64-54, to seal the comeback win.

The forward looked like her old self in the second half scoring 10 points and dishing three assists.

She logged 31 minutes on the night.Rutgers Backs Pat

The folks at Rutgers showed their support for UT coach Pat Summitt when the two teams met on Dec. 13.

The Rutgers players wore “We Back Pat” shooting shirts and RU athletics director Tim Pernetti pre-sented UT a commemorative jersey for Summitt.

Rutgers sold the Pat Summitt Foundation brace-lets on the concourse with the proceeds going to the Foundation fund.

UT & Rutgers Hall of Famers Both Tennessee and Rutgers can boast of Women’s

Basketball Hall of Fame (Knoxville, Tenn.) and Nai-smith Basketball Hall of Fame (Springfi eld, Mass.) head coach inductees in Pat Head Summitt and C. Vivian Stringer.

Summitt joined the Women’s HoF when she was se-lected as a member of the inaugural class of 1999, while Stringer was a 2001 inductee.

In Fall 2009, Stringer earned her induction into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame while Summitt was a member of the Class of 2000.

Not only are the head coaches members of the WBHOF but UT also sports Lady Vol associate head coach Holly Warlick (inducted as a player in the Class of 2001 with Coach Stringer) and Lady Vol Basketball Director of Character Development, Daedra Charles-Furlow was a 2007 inductee.

Garden Party Tennessee’s appearance in Madison Square Gar-

den, “the world’s most famous basketball arena,” marks the fourth time for the Lady Vols.

UT has a 3-0 record at MSG. In all previous trips to the Garden, Rutgers has

been the opponent each time. Lady Vol All-American and Olympian Chamique

Holdsclaw traveled to her hometown for her se-nior year in 1998-99. It marked UT’s fi rst trip to The Garden.

The game was played before the largest crowd to ever see a women’s collegiate basketball game in the Garden, 15,735.

The trip was billed as the NYC homecoming for Holdsclaw who hailed from Astoria in Queens.

Second-ranked UT had little trouble with the No. 15/13-ranked Scarlet Knights winning 68-54 on Jan. 3, 1999.

The next visit was a meeting between #2 ranked Tennessee, who was trying to rebound from a loss at UConn, and #9/10-ranked Rutgers, in a defensive struggle in Madison Square Garden on Jan. 2, 2001, as the Lady Vols won 58-51.

In the 2001 game at MSG, Lady Vol senior All-American Tamika Catchings was forced to wear the “blood jersey” (number 55), after her number 24 orange road jersey turned up missing when the UT managers did the team laundry after the game versus UConn in Hartford. It never did ap-pear on eBay.

The Lady Vols were invited to play in the Maggie Dixon Classic in 2009 with Rutgers as the op-ponent once again. No. 4/3-ranked Tennessee defeated the Scarlet Knights, 68-54, on Dec. 13.

Maggie Dixon ClassicClassic Notes This marks the second time the Lady Vols have

participated in the Maggie Dixon Classic. Lady Vol coach Pat Summitt is the 2011 recipi-

ent of the Maggie Dixon Courage Award. Sum-mitt will be honored by the Dixon family during a second half time out in the Classic’s fi rst game between Baylor and St. John’s.

Ironically, the last game Maggie Dixon ever coached at Army was against Tennessee. In 2006 Tennessee, Army, Old Dominion and George Washington were all bracketed together in Norfolk, Virginia, for NCAA First /Second Round games.

The night before the Tennessee vs. Army contest both coaching staff s found themselves dining at the same Virginia Beach seafood restaurant.

Basketball talk ensued that evening and the next day the two teams met on the court.

The game won’t be remembered as Army’s fi rst appearance in the NCAA Tournament under a rookie head coach but as the game in which Tennessee redshirt freshman Candace Parker dunked twice as the Lady Vols won going away, 102-54 on March 19, 2006.

The next week, the Lady Vols met Rutgers in the Sweet 16 in the Cleveland Regional (a 76-69 win) but lost to North Carolina in the Regional Cham-pionship, 75-63.

Sadly, Maggie Dixon passed away after the Final Four in Boston on April 6, 2006.

Graduation Lady Vol senior guard Alicia Manning had a busy

morning on Dec. 9. In addition to packing for a trip to New York City and an early morning prac-tice, Manning donned cap and gown to receive her diploma from UT.

The newly-minted graduate of the College of Ed-ucation received her B.S. in Sport Management with a business minor.

In January Manning will join fellow Lady Vols Vicki Baugh and Glory Johnson in graduate school. The Woodstock, Ga., native plans to pur-sue a master’s in Kinesiology with a concentra-tion in Sport Psychology.

Manning was joined at graduation by her par-ents, Jeff and Virginia Manning, as well as Lady Vol head coach Pat Summitt.

Following graduation in Thompson-Boling Are-na, she dashed to the locker room where she signed the Lady Vol graduation pillar, adding her name near Candace Parker’s and continuing the 100 percent graduation tradition among UT hoopsters.

Manning then joined her teammates in Pratt Pavilion for practice before heading to the Big

Apple. Heading in the Right Direction Tennessee halted a two-game losing streak tak-

ing a 82-43 win over Middle Tennessee State be-hind the play of rookies.

Cierra Burdick, came off the bench to contribute 14 points and 10 rebounds while Ariel Massen-gale added 14 points and fi ve assists.

That “must win” was followed by a solid eff ort in the 73-57 victory over #21/20 Texas on Dec. 4 in Knoxville.

Starting with a Pair of L’s The last time the Lady Vols opened the season

with a 2-2 record was during the 1990-91 cam-paign. Tennessee went on to a 30-5 overall record and captured the 1991 National Championship.

Tennessee opened that season with a win over Stanford (the defending NCAA Champs)...lost by 13 at N.C. State...defeated Virginia Tech on the road ... then lost at Vanderbilt by 14 points.

Including this season, back-to-back losses have only occurred 25 times during Coach Pat Sum-mitt’s 38-year career at Tennessee.

Before losing back-to-back to Virginia and #1-ranked Baylor (Nov. 20 & 27, 2011), the last oc-currence was during the 11 loss 2008-09 season.

UT lost back-to-back games twice that year -- at Duke and Kentucky (Feb. 16 & 19) and vs. Auburn and Ball State (Mar. 7 & 22).

Tennessee suff ered back-to-back losses three times in the 10 loss, 1996-97 NCAA Champion-ship “Cinderella Season.”

Of the 201 all-time losses for Summitt’s UT teams, they have lost back-to-back-to-back games just twice.

In December 1984, the Lady Vols lost three con-secutive games (all on the road) at #3-ranked Georgia, at #2-ranked Texas and at #7-ranked Louisiana Tech.

In February 1986, UT also lost three consecutive games at #8-ranked Ole Miss, #11-ranked Au-burn and against #3-ranked Louisiana Tech.

When Playing Number One Tennessee is 14-29 all-time when playing the na-

tion’s number one ranked team. The Lady Vols are 3-10 in Knoxville, an even 6-6 on the road and 5-13 on neutral courts.

UT is currently ranked number six in the AP poll. Tennessee is now 0-4 when trying to upset #1 from that position.

UT is currently ranked number seven in the USA To-day/ESPN poll. Tennessee is now 0-2 when trying to upset #1 from that position.

The Numbers Game Prior to the game versus Baylor on Nov. 27, the last

time Tennessee played the nation’s number one-ranked team was on Jan. 22, 2007 in Knoxville. The Lady Vols missed charity tosses down the stretch to lose 74-70 to top-ranked Duke after mounting a furious comeback rally.

The Blue Devils opened the game with a nightmar-ish 19-0 run-out, as the Lady Vols fell into a 21-point hole (28-7 at 9:23 in the fi rst half ) before rallying to narrow the halftime defi cit to 11 points (38-27).

Free throw defense stymied Tennessee, as the Lady Vols connected on just 8-17 (.471) for the game. All-American Candace Parker managed just 1-7 from the free throw line.

Good Neighbors The 2011 meeting with Miami in the State Farm

TipOff Classic marked the Lady Vols eighth ap-pearance in the State Farm TipOff Classic and the fi fth time to host the event. Tennessee now has a 6-2 record in TipOff games.

Making a Claim In the fi rst TipOff in 1993, Lady Vol coach Pat Sum-

mitt picked up her 500th career victory. In the TipOff in 1998, Purdue and Coach Carolyn

Peck halted the Lady Vols school record 46-game consecutive winning streak.

Tennessee’s last opening game home loss to start

10 LADY VOL BASKETBALL /// 2011-12 GAME NOTES

TENNESSEE VS. OLD DOMINION DEC. 28, 2011

a season came against Louisiana Tech in the 1999 TipOff Classic, 69-64, as UT failed to convert free throws in the waning seconds.

In Tennessee’s most recent TipOff appearance in 2009 in Knoxville, the Lady Vols spoiled Brittney Griner’s fi rst collegiate game with a 74-65 victory over the Lady Bears.

Going into the Hall Lady Vol Olympian and All-American Nikki Mc-

Cray Pinson will be a member of the 2012 Wom-en’s Basketball Hall of Fame Induction Class. Also being inducted are: Nancy Fahey (Coach), Pamela McGee (Player), Inge Nissen (Player), Robin Rob-erts (Contributor), and Dawn Staley (Player). Mc-Gee was introduced at the 2011 TipOff in Knox-ville.

Rookie Starts A true rookie got a starting nod on the opening

day of the 2011-12 season. When Coach Pat Summitt started freshman Ariel

Massengale against Pepperdine in the opening game of the 2011-12 season, it marked only the 14th time in her coaching career that a freshman started her very fi rst game at Tennessee -- out of a total of 161 all-time Lady Vols who have played at UT.

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, Tiff ani Johnson 1994, Bridgette Gordon and Sheila Frost 1985.

The Nod With Ariel Massengale getting the opening day

start against Pepperdine, she became the 61st rookie all-time to earn a starting assignment at UT. Last season, Meighan Simmons, a 5-9 point guard from Cibolo, Texas, became the 60th rook-ie all-time to earn a starting assignment at Ten-nessee.

The previous year, rookie Kamiko Williams (59th all-time) started against Arkansas while her class-mate and fellow rookie Taber Spani, became the 13th frosh to start her very fi rst game at UT and the 58th rookie overall.

In 2008-09, 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.

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 fresh-man 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 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.

Fourth Earliest Opener The game against Pepperdine was the fourth

earliest date the Lady Vols have ever opened the season. UT’s earliest opening game was during the 2002-03 season with fi rst tip on Nov. 10, 2002, taking on #22/19-ranked Oklahoma and register-ing a 94-68 win.

GAME 1 #3 UT vs. Pepperdine // Nov. 13, 2011

GAME 2 #3 UT vs. #7 Miami // Nov. 15, 2011

KNOXVILLE -- It took over two minutes for the first shot to finally fall. Pepperdine never led, but kept within two baskets until an 8-0 run capped by Meighan Simmons’ jumper with 10:32 left in the first half gave Tennessee a 20-9 lead.

Summitt played her entire bench in the first half, including freshmen Cierra Burdick and Isabelle Harrison, and the Tennessee reserves scored 20 points.

Glory Johnson led the Lady Vols with 17 points and 13 rebounds. Shekinna Stricklen and Simmons each had 13 points, Taber Spani contributed 11 points and Briana Bass had 10.

Pepperdine’s tough defense came at a cost. The Waves had 14 personal fouls in the first half, though the Lady Vols were uncharacteristically sloppy at the charity stripe, making just two of six foul shots before halftime.

Still, it forced Rousseau to go deep into her bench, which was responsible for just four points in the first half and 19 total. Jazmine Jackson had 17 points for the Waves, who shot 28.4 percent to the Lady Vols’ 49.2 percent shooting.

Tennessee outrebounded Pepperdine 54-34, but couldn’t turn them into points. The Lady Vols gained control of the game with their 20 fast-break points and by sinking eight of their 10 3-point baskets in the second half.

Summitt gave a starting nod to point guard Ariel Massengale, making her just the 14th Lady Vol to start her very first career game. The coach was so convinced of Massengale’s talent and frustrated by a lack of a bona fide point guard last season that she dubbed Mas-sengale a starter back in March.

Massengale sat for more than 13 minutes in the first half after picking up two fouls and finished with just one field goal, but had five assists to just one turnover and came up with two steals and three rebounds in 20 minutes.

KNOXVILLE - Junior Taber Spani hit a game-high four three-pointers, but none bigger than the one she drained from the top of the key as the shot clock expired with 6:36 remaining in the game. The swish ignited an 11-0 Tennessee run and ultimately helped lift the No. 3 Tennessee women’s basketball team (2-0) to a 92-76 victory over No. 7 Miami (1-1) on Tuesday eve-ning at Thompson-Boling Arena.

The pair of top ten teams were tied, 42-42, at halftime before Tennessee scored the second half’s first nine points and 18 of the first 22 to take a 60-46 lead.

But the Hurricanes came storming back, eventually getting as close as 73-68. That’s when Spani saved her best for her last shot.

After her three-pointer, the Lady Vols forced a shot clock violation on the other end, and freshman Isabelle Harrison scored her first points of the evening off of on an offensive rebound.

Tennessee went on to score 19 of the game’s final 27 points to notch its second win in as many tries this season.

After Miami’s Riquna Williams went off for 17 first-half points, UT limited her to just seven in the second. Although she finished with a game-high 24 points, the Lady Vols made her use 28 shot attempts to get there.

Tennessee had five players in double-figures. Joining Spani were Meighan Simmons (18), Johnson (16), Shekinna Stricklen (15) and Ariel Massengale (11). Johnson also chipped in a team-high nine rebounds, while Massengale led the game with the second-highest assist total by a UT freshman all-time with nine.

In the first half, it was the Hurricanes that got off to a strong start. After Baugh scored the game’s opening bucket on a layup, Miami went on a 10-2 run for its largest lead of the contest, 10-4.

The Hurricanes made four of their first six three-point attempts, and led until a try from Simmons put the Lady Vols back ahead, 18-16, with 13:41 left in the first half.

After UM’s Stefanie Yderstorm responded with a three-pointer of her own complemented by a Krystal Saunders layup, the Lady Vols scored eight consecutive points to take a 26-21 lead with 10:21 left in the first half and would not trail again.

UT matched its biggest lead of the first 20 minutes, 38-31, on a jumper from Spani, who led the team with 13 first-half points. UM closed the first half with an 11-4 run to tie the score, 42-42.

GAME 3#3 UT at Virginia // Nov. 20, 2011

GAME 4#6/7 UT vs. #1 Baylor // Nov. 27, 2011

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. - Chelsea Shine scored 18 points, including a key basket in over-time, and Virginia stunned turnover-prone No. 3 Tennessee 69-64 on Sunday.

The Cavaliers (4-0) came into the game allowing just over 42 points a game under first-year coach Joanne Boyle, and dictated the pace against a Lady Vols team averaging 90.5 points.

Taber Spani led the Lady Vols (2-1) with 22 points, including a 3-pointer 59 seconds into overtime that gave Tennessee a 61-58 lead, but the Cavaliers scored the next 11 points, the crowd at John Paul Jones Arena getting more excited with each basket.

China Crosby had 13 points and Ataira Franklin 12 for Virginia, which beat Tennessee for just the third time in 16 games. Lexie Gerson and Ariana Moorer each scored 10. Shekinna Stricklen had 16 and Glory Johnson 15 for the Lady Vols, who missed 10 of 21 free throws.

In the overtime, after Spani’s 3-pointer, Moorer hit a pair of free throws, and then a foul-line jumper, one of only three baskets she made in 16 tries. Shine followed a turnover the Ten-nessee with a short baseline jumper, and Crosby hit 3 of 4 free throws to make it 67-61.

The Lady Vols never had an answer, and each time they failed to score and Virginia came away with the ball, the crowd of 6,450 at John Paul Jones Arena got louder and more excited.

Stricklen had a chance to give the Lady Vols the lead near the end of regulation when she was fouled while scoring, but she missed the free throw, one of 10 misses in 21 tries for Tennessee. The Lady Vols also had 24 turnovers that the Cavaliers turned into 27 points.

Crosby broke a 56-all tie with 36.6 seconds to go in regulation, hitting a desperate shot from the baseline with the shot clock running down. After a timeout, Spani calmly swished a 12-footer from the left baseline with 22.8 seconds to go, pulling Tennessee even again.

Moorer’s last chance drive in regulation was cleanly blocked just before the buzzer. The Cavaliers tightened their defense and Tennessee continued to be sloppy early in the sec-ond half as Virginia opened the half on a 14-6 run. The Cavaliers led by as many as nine and by 47-40 when the Lady Vols began asserting themselves on the offensive glass and rallied.

Tennessee scored eight straight points, taking its first lead since the first half, but Shine scored inside and Crosby’s three-point play boosted the Cavaliers’ edge back to 52-48.

The Lady Vols pulled even three times, but only led once thereafter.

Virginia used a 12-2 run to take a 24-20 lead in a sloppy first half. The Lady Vols turned the ball over at least seven times in the drought, and went almost 5 minutes without scoring.

Spani, who hit the floor hard at one point and went back to the locker room, led Tennessee with 12 points in the half, and Gerson led the Cavaliers with eight.

KNOXVILLE - The No. 6 Lady Vols led for much of the second half, but No. 1 Baylor took the lead late in the second half and went on to a 76-67 win before an electric crowd at Thompson-Boling Arena. The contest was the first “WE BACK PAT” game as the Pat Summitt Foundation was launched at halftime and $150,000 was presented to the Alzheimer’s Ten-nessee and the UT Medical Center with money raised from sales of “WE BACK PAT” shirts.

Baylor All-American Brittney Griner scored 17 of her game-high 26 in the second half to lead the Bears’ comeback as they moved to 6-0. UT’s All-American Shekinna Stricklen led the Lady Vols with 25 points and 12 rebounds. Vicki Baugh also had 17 points and 10 rebounds.

With the loss, the Lady Vols’ 38-game home win streak comes to an end as Tennessee falls to 2-2 overall. The last time UT started a season 2-2 was the 1990-91 season. That year, Tennes-see went on to win its third NCAA Championship with a 30-5 record.

Odyssey Sims (23 points) knocked down a 3-pointer with 7:20 left in regulation to give Baylor the lead it would never relinquish, 56-53. Glory Johnson (9 points, 11 rebounds) swooped in for a layup with 6:40 left to bring UT back within one at 56-55, but that was as close as it would be the rest of the way.

Tennessee continued to pressure in the final minutes, but missed several shots as the Lady Vols shot just 29.3 percent in the game.

Johnson made a pair of free throws with 2:02 left to bring UT back within four at 65-61. Griner answered with another lay-in with just two seconds left on the shot clock to give the Bears a 67-61 lead with 1:32 left in the game.

Baugh (17 points, 11 rebounds) and Stricklen both bombed a 3-pointers in the final 44 sec-onds, but it wasn’t enough as the Bears posted the win to drop the Lady Vols to 2-2.

The Lady Vols grabbed 55 rebounds, outboarding the Bears, 55-42, their most since the NCAA First Round win over Stetson last season, when they had 63.

Taber Spani’s lay-up with 8:50 left, gave the Lady Vols a 53-50. Spani missed the ensuing free throw as part of an and-one as Baylor quickly answered. Griner converted a 3-point play seconds later to tie the game at 53 all.

Baylor answered with a 7-0 run to come back within one points at 39-38 before Baugh layed one home for a 41-38 UT edge with 16 minutes left in the game. Baylor took a short-lived lead at 42-41 on a Griner lay-up with 15 minutes left in the second half. Spani regained the edge with a layup just 16 seconds later.

The Lady Vols had a 17-2 run bridging the halves to build a lead of 39-31 with 17:39 left in the second half. Stricklen scored on a putback forcing Baylor to call timeout as UT took a seven-point lead (38-31) just 1:27 into the second half. Stricklen had eight of UT’s points in the spurt as the Lady Vols bounced back from a 29-22 deficit with four minutes left in the first half.

Tennessee led 33-31 at intermission as Spani canned a 3-pointer with 42 seconds left in the half. Stricklen had 19 points and seven rebounds in the first 20 minutes while Brittney Griner was limited to nine points and just three rebounds. The Lady Vols dominated the glass in the first half, holding a 34-19 advantage. That included 18 offensive rebounds as UT shot just 25 percent.

GAME 5#8 UT vs. Middle Tennessee // Nov. 29, 2011

GAME 6#8 UT vs. #21/22 Texas // Dec. 4, 2011

KNOXVILLE - A pair of freshmen, Cierra Burdick and Ariel Massengale, each scored a career-high 14 points and keyed a pair of first-half runs as the No. 8 Tennessee women’s basketball team defeated in-state rival Middle Tennessee, 82-43, Tuesday evening at Thompson-Boling Arena. Massengale logged just 23 minutes, but led the Lady Vols in both scoring for the first time in her career, tying Burdick. Massengale has led Tennessee (3-2) in assists in all five games to open her collegiate career, and had zero turnovers for the first time Tuesday night. Massengale, and UT’s other four starters, had a light night after controlling the action throughout the game’s entirety. Johnson played a starter-high 25 minutes and tallied nine points and nine rebounds. Despite the Lady Vols’ largest win this season of 39 points, UT matched its least amount of double-figure scorers this season with two. Senior preseason All-American Shekinna Stricklen also chipped in 12 points. Over the first 10 minutes of the second half, Tennessee extended its 48-24 halftime lead to a 62-30 margin and the Lady Vols never looked back. UT limited the Blue Raiders (4-3) to 19 points in the second half. Middle Tennessee was led by a game-high 16 points from Kortni Jones. Ebony Rowe also had 10 points for MTSU. In the first half, Middle Tennessee jumped out to a 5-2 lead before the Lady Vols scored 20 of the game’s next 22 points to take a 22-7 lead at the 11:47 mark, setting the tone for the rest of the game. During that stretch, Massengale played a role in 14 of UT’s 20 points, contributing nine points and assisting on a pair of baskets. The freshman standout also had one of her two steals in the run. She had already matched her career high with 11 points by halftime. The Blue Raiders responded with an 11-5 run to bring their deficit back within single digits at 27-18 with 7:08 left. UT reinforced its dominance, scoring 21 of the opening stanza’s final 27 points, to take a 48-24 halftime lead. Burdick scored all seven of her first-half points in the run as the Lady Vols’ 24-point advantage at intermission was their largest of the season.

KNOXVILLE — Clutch three-point shooting and powerful rebounding lifted #8 Tennessee to a 73-57 victory over #21/22 Texas on Sunday afternoon.

From three-point range Tennessee shot 52.4 percent, making 11-of-21 while being led by Shekinna Stricklen (20 points) and Meighan Simmons (10 points), who combined to make 8-of-16 from behind the arc. Stricklen was a career-high 5-of-9 from three-point land.

The Lady Vols (4-2) outrebounded the Longhorns (5-2), 49-38, led by Vicki Baugh’s 11 boards.

Baugh (17 points) and Glory Johnson (11 points and 10 rebounds) both posted double-doubles. Ariel Massengale also scored in double-figures with 10 points while handling out five assists.

The Longhorns were led by Ashleigh Fontenette and Chassidy Fussell, who tallied 22 and 14 points, respectively.

Stricklen’s fifth three-pointer of the game was the final dagger as it put Tennessee up 64-53 with 6:15 to play on a trey as the shot clock was winding down.

The Lady Vols held Texas scoreless for 6:20 late in the game as the Lady Vols went on a 10-0 run while forcing the Longhorns into five turnovers during the spurt. Texas ended the drought on Fontenette’s jumper with 2:40 left in the game, as the Longhorns had fallen behind by 16.

Down by as many as 14 early in the second, the Longhorns cut the deficit to six at 59-53 on a three-pointer by Chelsea Bass with 8:50 left in the second half. That would be Texas’ final points for more than six minutes. The Lady Vols answered as Johnson scored on a lay-up to start a run of 10 consecutive points. Tennessee forced Texas into a 30-second shot clock violation with 6:41 left in regulation with furious defensive pressure.

The Lady Vols picked up their shooting early in the second half and began to pull away, taking a 52-38 lead on a Baugh lay-up with 15:31 left in the game.

Tennessee led 41-32 at halftime thanks to some strong shooting from three-point range as UT knocked down 7-of-13 (54 percent) from beyond the arc in the first 20 minutes. The Big Orange was led by Simmons, who was 3-of-5 with 10 first-half points. Baugh added 11 points in the first half along with five rebounds as the Lady Vols held a 29-18 rebounding edge at intermission.

UT expanded a 27-26 lead with 5:19 left to as big as 11 (38-27) with 1:28 left in the first half. Texas had drawn within one on a three-pointer by Fontenette before the Lady Vols went on an 11-1 spurt.

The Lady Vols return to action next Sunday at Madison Square Garden in New York as Ten-nessee takes on #22 DePaul in the Maggie Dixon Classic. Tip-off is set for 1:30 p.m. and will be televised on ESPNU.

GAME 7#7 UT vs. #20/21 DePaul // Dec. 11, 2011

GAME 8#6 UT vs. #11 Rutgers // Dec. 13, 2011

NEW YORK - Glory Johnson scored 16 points and Cierra Burdick added 15 to help No. 7 Tennessee beat No. 20 DePaul 84-61 on Sunday in the Maggie Dixon Classic at Madison Square Garden.

Shekinna Stricklen added 12 points while Alicia Manning had season-highs of 12 points and 12 rebounds for the Lady Vols (5-2), who saw their 12-point halftime lead cut to 41-37 before using an 15-4 run to take control. Stricklen had six points during the burst.

Her layup made it 56-43 with 11:19 left and DePaul (8-2) couldn’t get within single digits the rest of the way.

Tennessee coach Pat Summitt was honored during No. 1 Baylor’s 73-59 victory over St. John’s with the Maggie Dixon Courage award. Summitt announced in August that she had been diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s. Both the Lady Bears and Red Storm came out of their timeouts to applaud the winningest coach in college basketball.

Jasmine Penny scored 16 points and Keisha Hampton added 14 for DePaul.

It was the second time Tennessee played in the Classic named for the former Army wom-en’s coach. The Lady Vols beat Rutgers two years ago. The Scarlet Knights had played in all four of the previous Garden events. Army hosted Ohio State at West Point the first year.

The 28-year-old Dixon died April 6, 2006, of arrhythmia, probably caused by an enlarged heart. Her death came three weeks after she finished her first season as Army coach. She won the admiration of the academy and all of college basketball for leading Army to its first NCAA berth, where the Cadets lost in the first round to Summitt’s Lady Vols.

Tennessee was playing its first game without freshman point guard Ariel Massengale. She had started every game averaging 7.2 points and 5.8 assists.

She injured a finger on her left hand while diving for a loose ball at the end of practice on Thursday and will be sidelined for a few weeks.

PISCATAWAY, N.J. - The sixth-ranked Tennessee women’s basketball team used a pivotal 13-0 run late in the second half to propel the Lady Vols to a 67-61 victory over No. 11 Rutgers on Tuesday evening at the Louis Brown Athletic Center.

The sixth-ranked Lady Vols lost all of a 13-point lead and found themselves down by three before taking control with a late run to seal their 67-61 victory over the Scarlet Knights. Sophomore guard Meighan Simmons hit two clutch 3-pointers during the game-changing spurt.

Trailing 54-51 with 8:33 left, Tennessee (6-2) scored 13 straight points, holding Rutgers without a point for nearly 8 minutes. Vicki Baugh started the burst with a layup and Sim-mons hit consecutive 3-pointers to give the Lady Vols a 61-54 lead. Taber Spani hit another 3 with 1:52 left to seal the victory.

The game featured two Hall of Fame coaches with Pat Summitt and C. Vivian Stringer of Rutgers. The long-time friends have combined for nearly 1,950 victories during their illus-trious careers. They stand first and third on the women’s basketball all-time victory list.

Summitt received a warm standing ovation from the crowd before the game and shared a long embrace with Stringer. Rutgers players wore warmup shirts that said “We Back Pat” in honor of Summitt’s battle with Alzeheimer’s. The school also presented Tennessee with a collage of Stringer’s favorite photos with Summitt and a commemorative jersey at the half. Tennessee held Rutgers scoreless over a 7:55 span as April Sykes connected from down-town with 38 seconds left. As the Lady Vols squandered free throw opportunities, the Scarlet Knights made things interesting, coming as close as 65-61 before a pair of free throws from Shekinna Stricklen sealed the victory for UT.

The Lady Vols got off to a quick start behind Stricklen. The senior preseason All-American had 10 straight points for Tennessee during one stretch. Her jumper with 5:48 left in the half gave the Lady Vols a 33-20 lead. That would be their last points before the half as Rutgers turned up its defensive pressure, scoring the final eight points before the break, including four by Sykes.

Rutgers continued the run to start the second half scoring 11 of the first 14 points. Sykes’ layup 2 1/2 minutes in gave Rutgers its first lead of the game at 37-36. Khadijah Rushdan’s basket moments later capped the 19-3 burst.

Neither team could pull away. Rutgers built a 54-51 lead on consecutive scores by Rushdan and a layup by Sykes with 8:33 left. That would be the Scarlet Knights’ final points until Sykes hit a 3-pointer with 35.9 seconds left that made it 64-57. Rutgers would get within four on Monique’s Oliver’s lay-in with 12.6 seconds left.

Rushdan finished with 16 points. Spani and Simmons each had 13 points for Tennessee.

GAME 9#6 UT vs. UCLA // Dec. 17, 2011

GAME 10#6 UT vs. #4 Stanford // Dec. 20, 2011

LOS ANGELES - Meighan Simmons scored 18 points, Glory Johnson added 17 and No. 6 Tennessee made 18 of its first 20 shots in beating UCLA 85-64 on Saturday.

Vicki Baugh had 14 points and 12 rebounds, Taber Spani added 14 points and Shekinna Stricklen scored 11 for the Lady Vols, who shot 36 of 52 (69.6 percent) from the floor -- not far off the school record of 72.1 percent against Old Dominion on Jan. 4, 1989.

Rebekah Gardner scored 15 of her career-high 24 points in the first half for UCLA (5-4), and Thea Lemberger and Markel Walker added 11 points each for the Bruins.

The win was the fourth straight for the Lady Vols (7-2) and their 18th in 19 meetings all-time against UCLA. It also raised Lady Vols coach Pat Summitt’s career record to 1,078-201.

The 59-year-old Hall of Famer, in her 38th season at Tennessee, is the only coach in NCAA men’s and women’s basketball history to reach 1,000 wins.

The Lady Vols never trailed, making their first eight shots, including three 3-pointers, for a 19-8 lead. The Bruins went on a 10-3 run to draw within four points before Tennessee had a 21-9 burst to make it 43-27. The Lady Vols then missed five of six shots, leaving them shooting 19 of 25 (76 percent) and with a 45-34 lead at halftime.

Tennessee outscored the Bruins 9-2 to begin the second half for a 54-36 lead. UCLA wasn’t closer than 13 points after that. A layup by Baugh with 7:29 remaining made it 74-52, with Tennessee shooting 32 of 43 (74.4 percent) from the field at that stage.

There were only four fouls called and just one free throw in the first half, and 17 fouls and 18 free throws in the game.

Tennessee played its third straight game without starting point guard Ariel Massengale, who dislocated her left middle finger during practice earlier this month.

STANFORD, Calif. (AP) - Nnemkadi Ogwumike scored a career-high 42 points and dazzled in what might have been the most meaningful home game of her senior season, and No. 4 Stanford beat sixth-ranked Tennessee 97-80 on Tuesday night in one of women’s basketballs best rivalries.

The Cardinal extended their school-record home winning streak to 68 games at Maples Pavilion, where a sellout crowd of 7,329 waved red “We Back Pat” rally towels in support of Hall of Fame Lady Vols coach Pat Summitt, who revealed in August she has early onset Alzheimer’s.

Shekinna Stricklen scored a career-high 27 points to lead the Lady Vols, who had their five-game winning streak snapped.

Glory Johnson added 18 points, six rebounds, two blocks and two steals and Meighan Simmons scored 13 for Tennessee on a night Ogwumike put on a show for national television.

Ogwumike’s basket that hit the rim and bounced in with 10:59 left gave the Cardinal their first double-digit lead of the game at 65-55 - and they only built on that the rest of the way. Ogwu-mike’s two free throws with 3:49 left topped her previous best outing of 38 points on April 4, 2010, against Oklahoma.

Her sophomore sister, Chiney, added 14 points as the Cardinal shot 53.6 percent.

Tennessee shot a sizzling 61.5 percent in the first half to stay within 48-41 at the break before going a cool 37 percent in the second half to finish at 49.1 percent.

The Cardinal, riding a streak of four straight Final Fours without a championship, haven’t lost on their home floor at raucous Maples Pavilion since falling to Florida State in the second round of the NCAA tournament on March 19, 2007.

Stanford has beaten Tennessee three times during that span - also a 73-69 win on Dec. 22, 2007, and a 67-52 victory on Dec. 19, 2009. There also was that monumental 71-59 victory last Dec. 30 that snapped top-ranked Connecticut’s record 90-game winning streak.

Summitt walked onto the court a few minutes before tipoff to a rousing standing ovation from the sellout crowd.

Fellow Hall of Famer VanDerveer was shown on the main elevated center-court scoreboard of-fering her support to Summitt while acknowleding how much Stanford cherishes the rivalry and regular non-conference meetings with the Lady Vols.

VanDerveer said Stanford’s program “is behind her 100 percent.” Summitt was not yet on the court with her team to see the presentation.

“Pat, we love you, we care about you and we wish you the very best in your battle with Alzheim-er’s,” said the video with VanDerveer, who walked to the opposite bench to greet Summitt. They posed for a few photos together.

The Cardinal began the game 3 for 13 to 6 of 8 for Tennessee, which jumped out to a 10-3 lead in the opening 2:50.

The Lady Vols were whistled for a technical foul at the 11:18 mark of the first half for having six players on the court. Stanford converted both free throws to cut Tennessee’s lead to 16-15.

Tennessee freshman guard Ariel Massengale, who had missed last three games nursing a dislo-cated middle finger on her left hand that required minor surgery, entered the game for the first time with 10:45 left. The Lady Vols beat DePaul and won at both Rutgers and UCLA without her. Massengale practiced Monday in the Bay Area.
