Big Orange Slices...Bitten by the Injury Bug

The 2012 season hasn’t even started yet and the injury report is already a major factor in how the early part of Tennessee softball’s new campaign will develop.

Lady Vol junior third baseman and two-time NFCA All-American (2010, 2011) Raven Chavanne suffered an avul-sion fracture of her right thumb in January, necessitating surgery that will keep her out of action through at least the opening weekend’s Kajikawa Classic (Feb. 9-12). The potential is there for the Thousand Oaks, Calif., native to return for the trip to the Time Warner Invitational in Austin, Texas (Feb. 17-19), but that decision will be made early next week.

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. While expected to be available for action in Tempe, the Savannah, Ga., product could be removed from the line-up if there are any issues from the previous injury.

Loads of Recent Success vs. the Pac-12

The Lady Vols have enjoyed a great deal of success since the beginning of the 2005 season against the always-powerful Pacific-12 Conference. Tennessee is 17-11 IN ITS LAST 28 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, 1-0 vs. Arizona State and 0-1 against California. Current Lady Vol players are just 3-6 against the Pac-12, however, but own wins over #2 UCLA (2/26/11), #3 Arizona (WCWS-6/3/10) and Oregon State (2/21/09).

When Facing #1

The Big Orange will face-off against the #1-ranked team in the nation this weekend at the Kajikawa Classic in Tem-pe, Ariz., when Tennessee battles defending national champion Arizona State. UT is 5-13 all-time against top-ranked squads with wins against #1 Alabama (two regular-season wins-2007; regular-season win in 2011), Michigan (win at WCWS-2005) and UCLA (win at WCWS-2006). In their last meeting versus #1, the Lady Vols split a doubleheader

2012 LADY VOL SOFTBALL HONORSNotes...against top-ranked Alabama at Lee Softball Stadium on March 22, 2011 (5-9, 4-1).

Let’s Open the Season With a “W!”

Tennessee is 9-7 all-time in season openers and 7-3 under co-head coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly after blasting Michigan State, 11-2 (5 inn.), back on Feb. 11, 2011. UT has now won seven of its last eight season openers with the lone loss occurring on Feb. 12, 2010, to eventual national champion #8 UCLA at the NTC Divi-sion I Elite Invitational. The Lady Vols christen their 2012 campaign against UCSB on Feb. 9 at the prestigious Kajikawa Classic in Tempe, Ariz.

2012 Lady Vol Softball...A Brief Preview

This year’s edition of the Big Orange softball squad returns 15 letter-winners, including seven that started at least 31 games in 2011, and welcomes back all 49 pitching victories from the circle. UT bolsters 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 returns 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 Slug-ger/NFCA First Team All-American and current USA Softball Senior Women’s National Team member Lauren

OVERALL AND SEC STATS (2011)Strength of Schedule

Four of Tennessee’s 2012 opponents, Arizona State, Alabama, Florida and California, participated in last sea-son’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.

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 120

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

Dominant in February 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 143-26-1

SINCE STARTING 2002 AND ARE A STAGGERING 96-10 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) and UNLV (2011).

UT enters the 2012 campaign on a six-game winning streak in the month of February dating back to a 5-0 defeat to #19 Stanford (Feb. 20, 2011).

Bring on the Extra Softball

Tennessee now owns an 11-2 mark over its last 13 extra-inning contests since the start of the ‘09 season. The lone defeats in extra frames over the last three years occurred on March 21, 2010, when UT dropped a hard-fought, 7-6 contest to #6 Georgia in eight innings, and on March 13, 2011, in Lexington, Ky., when the Big


Tennessee was chosen to fi nish second in the annual poll of the SEC Coaches prior to the start of the 2012 campaign. The complete totals are listed below:

SEC Champion: Florida (6); TENNESSEE (5) Eastern Division:1. Florida (14 points)2. TENNESSEE (15 points)3. Kentucky (32 points)4. Georgia (35 points)5. South Carolina (48 points)

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 .
