Some Quick Notes Here are some quick notes to pay attention to with the Lady Vols entering the NCAA Super Regionals: --Tennessee has never failed to advance through NCAA Super Regionals in four previous visits to the round, winning at #4 Stanford back in 2005 (2-0, 6-0), topping #13 Michigan in 2006 (5-3, 1-5, 1-0), handling #12 Hawai’i in 2007 (9-0 in 5 inn., 6-9, 7-1) and advancing with a two-game sweep at #2 Michigan in 2010 (5-0, 4-3). UT holds an 8-2 all-time record in Super Regional play and is 4-2 in those match-ups played in Knoxville (#13 Michigan in 2006, #12 Hawai’i in 2007). --UT’s rally this past weekend to secure the title in the NCAA Knoxville Regional marked the first time in program history that the Lady Vols lost a game in regional play and still advanced. --Tennessee is 29-28 all-time against Georgia, having split a doubleheader in Knoxville back on April 4, 1-3 (11 inn.) and 2-1. The two programs have met in postseason play (SEC Tournament or NCAA) seven times with the Big Orange holding a 5-2 record in those contests. They have met just once previously in NCAA action, that occurring back at the 2010 WCWS with Tennessee winning 7-5. --Junior third baseman Raven Chavanne has reached base in each of her last 40 games, a career-best, and is on an 13-game hitting streak with at least two hits in nine of those eight contests. During that span the Thousand Oaks, Calif., native won USA Softball National Collegiate Player of the Week (5/1) and SEC Player of the Week (4/30) honors after hitting .833 (10-for-12) with six runs scored and five steals against Tennessee State and Ole Miss (three games). --Senior defensive sub Holly Baker has reached base in six straight plate appearances, going 4-for-4 with two walks since April 22 at South Carolina. Included over that stretch is her clutch solo HR to beat Auburn at the SEC Tournament back on May 10. --The Big Orange is 31-10 over 41 contests this season against a group of 22 teams that were chosen to the 2012 NCAA Tournament Field. --Tennessee has played 16 one-run contests in 2012, posting a 10-6 record in those match-ups. Among UT’s 11 defeats this year, only three have been by three runs or more (13-5 to #4 Cal on Feb. 10; 5-2 to #3 Florida on March 10 and 4-1 at Arkansas on March 17) with every other loss coming by just one or two tallies.

Big Orange Slices...Some Quick Notes Here are some quick notes to pay attention to with the Lady Vols entering the NCAA Super Regionals: --Tennessee has never failed to advance through NCAA Super Regionals in four previous visits to the

round, winning at #4 Stanford back in 2005 (2-0, 6-0), topping #13 Michigan in 2006 (5-3, 1-5, 1-0), handling #12 Hawai’i in 2007 (9-0 in 5 inn., 6-9, 7-1) and advancing with a two-game sweep at #2 Michigan in 2010 (5-0, 4-3). UT holds an 8-2 all-time record in Super Regional play and is 4-2 in those match-ups played in Knoxville (#13 Michigan in 2006, #12 Hawai’i in 2007).

--UT’s rally this past weekend to secure the title in the NCAA Knoxville Regional marked the first time in program history that the Lady Vols lost a game in regional play and still advanced.

--Tennessee is 29-28 all-time against Georgia, having split a doubleheader in Knoxville back on April 4, 1-3 (11 inn.) and 2-1. The two programs have met in postseason play (SEC Tournament or NCAA) seven times with the Big Orange holding a 5-2 record in those contests. They have met just once previously in NCAA action, that occurring back at the 2010 WCWS with Tennessee winning 7-5.

--Junior third baseman Raven Chavanne has reached base in each of her last 40 games, a career-best, and is on an 13-game hitting streak with at least two hits in nine of those eight contests. During that span the Thousand Oaks, Calif., native won USA Softball National Collegiate Player of the Week (5/1) and SEC Player of the Week (4/30) honors after hitting .833 (10-for-12) with six runs scored and five steals against Tennessee State and Ole Miss (three games).

--Senior defensive sub Holly Baker has reached base in six straight plate appearances, going 4-for-4 with two walks since April 22 at South Carolina. Included over that stretch is her clutch solo HR to beat Auburn at the SEC Tournament back on May 10.

Notes... --Junior pitcher Ivy Renfroe has won 18 of her last 20 decisions dating back to a defeat at #1 Alabama (3-2 in 11 inn.) . She won 14 straight from March 21 until

suffering a tough 2-1 (8 inn.) loss to #7 Florida at the SEC Tournament on May 11. The Jackson, Tenn., native is 18-2 (two losses each by one-run) with a 1.03 ERA over that stretch with 113 K’s in 128.2 innings of work while limiting the opposition to a .165 batting average.

--Since March 21 (34 games), junior right fielder and slap-hitter Kat Dotson is hitting a robust .396 overall (42 hits) with a .475 on-base percentage and 11 stolen bases.

--Junior third baseman Raven Chavanne has reached base by hit, walk or hit by pitch in a staggering 51 of her 52 total contests played in 2012, junior second baseman Lauren Gibson in 51 of her 61 games, sophomore shortstop Madison Shipman has reached in 51 of 61 contests, junior right fielder Kat Dotson has reached in 47 of her 57 games and senior utility player Shelby Burchell has reached in 37 of her last 49 games.

--With 102 career steals now at Tennessee, Raven Chavanne is one of just three Lady Vols to reach 100 thefts in a career all-time. Lindsay Schutzler set the career record with 120 steals from 2004-07, while Kelly Grieve swiped 104 bags from 2008-11. Chavanne needs just three more thefts to surpass Grieve and take over second place in UT history as just a junior.

--UT owns nine wins over ranked teams this year including #1 Alabama (in Tuscaloosa, Ala.), #1 and defending national champion Arizona State (in Tempe, Ariz.), #3/4 Florida, #9/8 Louisville and #9/10 Georgia.

--Tennessee has faced 17 teams that were part of the 2011 NCAA Tournament, posting a 23-8 record against those squads in 2012. The Big Orange has also played 34 games against teams rated in the top 50 of the most recent RPI, going 27-7 in those contests.

--UT is 9-4 overall in 13 total television match-ups in 2012 and has been on TV a staggering 89 times since heading out to the program’s first WCWS in 2005. --Tennessee currently leads NCAA Division I in fielding percentage (.983), rates eighth in win-loss percentage (.820), 13th in steals (1.79 per game), 11th in ERA

(1.53) and 24th in batting average (.307). --Sophomore left fielder Melissa Davin is hitting .371 (13-for-35) over UT’s last 15 games with a team-best four HR’s and 11 RBIs...she’s also hit two HRs in a single

game twice over that span and three times in 2012. --The Lady Vols have drawn at least one walk in every game in 2012 except during its defeat back on April 4 in the doubleheader opener against #9/10 Georgia (3-1

loss in 11 inn.) and in the 8-0 (6 inn.) NCAA Regional victory over Miami (Ohio) on May 19. --Several Lady Vols have entered the program single-season top 10 in various categories: Raven Chavanne currently sits fi fth in batting average at .439, is seventh

in on-base percentage (.503) and eighth in steals (32), Lauren Gibson is third in walks (45) and tied for sixth in HR’s with 13, Madison Shipman is tied for seventh in RBIs (63), Ellen Renfroe is fi fth in shutouts (15), sixth in both ERA (1.21) and K’s (273) and tied for seventh in wins (27).

Our NCAA Tournament History Tennessee earned the #7 national seed in the NCAA Field of 64 and hosted the Knoxville Regional for the eighth-straight season, welcoming in Virginia Tech, UAB

and Miami (Ohio) to Lee Stadium. This visit to the “Big Dance” marks the 10th overall NCAA Regional trip (45-21 overall NCAA record/25-11 in NCAA Regional ac-tion with fi ve NCAA Regional titles) for the Lady Vols. It is also UT’s ninth consecutive selection (2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012) to the tourna-ment under the guidance of co-head coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly. Tennessee has been to four Women’s College World Series where the Lady Vols fi nished third nationally in 2005, 2006 & 2010 and second overall in 2007.

Loads of Orange in the Postseason Awards The annual All-SEC and NFCA All-Region awards have a definite orange tint to them in 2012 as Lady Vols appear everywhere on the accolade lists. Junior third

baseman Raven Chavanne, sophomore shortstop Madison Shipman, sophomore pitcher Ellen Renfroe and junior outfielder Kat Dotson were each selected first team All-SEC, while junior second baseman Lauren Gibson and sophomore outfielder Melissa Davin reaped second team All-SEC honors. Gibson and Shipman even added a SEC All-Defensive Team nod at second and shortstop, respectively.

On May 17 it was announced that Ellen Renfroe, Chavanne, Gibson, Shipman and Dotson had reaped Louisville Slugger/NFCA All-Southeast Region honors, giving the Lady Vols 42% of the 12-member first squad. Only three schools managed at least five of its players on an All-Region First Team: Tennessee, Alabama and Louisiana-Lafayette.

OVERALL AND SEC STATS (as of 5/22)We Went Streaking...Again! The Big Orange recently posted a SEASON-LONG 19-GAME WINNING STREAK that stretched from April

4 against #9/10 Georgia to a tough, 2-1 (8 inn.) loss to #7 Florida in the SEC Tournament semifinals on May 11. The occurrence marked Tennessee’s longest winning streak since winning a school record 26 straight games from March 17-April 28, 2007 (Monica Abbott’s senior season) and tied for the fourth-longest win streak in school history. A list of the longest winning skeins in UT history is below:

26 straight wins March 17-April 28, 2007 24 straight wins February 10-March 18, 2006 23 straight wins February 9-March 10, 2007 19 STRAIGHT WINS APRIL 4-MAY 10 19 straight wins April 10-April 28, 1996 17 straight wins February 7-March 6, 2009 16 straight wins February 4-February 26, 2005 16 straight wins March 16-April 3, 2004

Off to One of Our Best Starts Ever! At 50-11 through 61 games, Tennessee currently is tied for the third-best record in program history to this

point in a season. The 2007 team was 56-5, the 2006 squad was 52-9 and the 2005 team was 50-11.

Best 61-Game Starts in UT History 2007 56-5 2006 52-9 2012 50-11 2005 50-11 2008 47-14 1996 47-14 2011 49-12 2004 49-12

OUCH...That Hurts! Hit by pitch is not a category you’d ever want to lead the Lady Vol history books in, but it’s worth a men-

tion nonetheless. Junior outfielder Kat Dotson has been hit 29 times in her career, trailing only former All-American Tonya Callahan’s 30 for the all-time Big Orange lead. That’s an awful lot of bruises needing a lot of ice, but demonstrates the willingness to stand strong in the batter’s box and take the shot.

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 eff ort in a tough loss at #1 Alabama on March 21 and continued it to 14 CONSECUTIVE DECISION VICTORIES before dropping a 2-1 (8 inn.) contest to #7 Florida in the semifi -

nals of the SEC Tournament on May 11. Over her last 17 starts, Renfroe is 18-2 with a 1.03 ERA, 10 complete games, six solo shutouts, her fi rst career perfect game (vs. Ole Miss on April 27) and 113 strikeouts over 128.2 innings.

Who Scores First REALLY Matters A trend has developed 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 43-7 THIS YEAR WHEN TALLYING THE FIRST RUN ON THE SCOREBOARD AND JUST 7-4 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, #1 Alabama and #7 Florida (SEC Tournament), a 4-1 loss at Arkansas, a 5-3 defeat to Kentucky and a 3-1 (11 inn.) defeat 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 117 two-out RBIs this season, meaning 42% of their total RBIs have come with two retired in a frame. During its three-game sweep at Auburn over April 6-8, UT managed a remarkable 13 two-out RBIs, while the Big Orange posted 18 total two-out RBIs in its five-game run through the NCAA Knoxville Regional.

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 in Tuscaloosa, Ala.,

on March 21, 2012, #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 and #9/8 Louisville’s 18-GAME WINNING STREAK on May 2, 2012, with a 8-1 rout.

During the 2011 campaign, UT managed to end 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.

There’s Just Something About the Fifth Inning The Lady Vol offense really seems to enjoy the fifth inning in 2012. Tennessee has put up 70 RUNS DUR-

ING THE FRAME this season and has sent at least nine batters to the plate during the fifth on seven different occasions. Back on Feb. 9 against UCSB, nine Lady Vols went to the dish in totaling three runs, while on March 16 at Arkansas nine more visited the batter’s box in registering five tallies. UT dug itself out of 2-0 deficits against both Radford (April 10) and #22/21 LSU (April 15) in the fifth by sending 13 (eight-run inning vs. RU) and 11 batters (five-run inning vs. LSU) to the plate, respectively. During the series at South Carolina, the Big Orange used a six-run fifth-inning outburst in rolling to an 8-0 (5 inn.) rout in the opener, and totaled four tal-lies during the fifth frame of the finale to sweep the series, 6-3. Most recently, the Big Orange sent nine to the plate in totaling four tallies in an 8-0 (5 inn.) NCAA Regional rout of UAB (5/19). Tennessee totaled 35 of its 103 total runs (34%) over its 19-game winning streak during the fifth inning.

Accolades Pouring In for Raven As a result of a spectacular week’s effort during which she hit a remarkable .833 (10-for-12) with six runs

scored and five stolen bases in wins over Tennessee State and Ole Miss, junior third baseman Raven Chavanne was bestowed honors as both the USA Softball National Collegiate Player of the Week (May 1) and the SEC Player of the Week (April 30). The Thousand Oaks, Calif., native raised her SEC-leading batting average from .404 entering the week to .439 with her work during the week and stretched her streak of reaching base suc-cessfully to then 33 consecutive contests.

Taking a Look at the Ratings Percentage Index (RPI) The most recent NCAA Ratings Percentage Index (RPI) has been released for 2012 (May 14) and the South-

eastern Conference currently boasts four of the top 20 teams (#2 Alabama, #4 TENNESSEE, #7 Florida, #15 Georgia) and nine of the top 50 (#27 LSU, #31 Auburn, #35 Mississippi State, #36 Kentucky and #47 Arkansas). The RPI was 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 Arizona State, #3 Alabama, #7 Florida and #10 Louisville this season.

Can’t Keep Them Off the Base Paths! The opposition has been having some serious issues in keeping a couple of Lady Vol players off the base

paths recently. Junior third baseman Raven Chavanne has reached base successfully in a CAREER-BEST 40 CONSECUTIVE CONTESTS dating back to March 11 when the Thousand Oaks, Calif., native failed to reach in the series finale against #3/4 Florida. Junior second baseman Lauren Gibson recently saw her streak of reach-ing successfully snapped at 16 straight games (dating back to March 23 at Mississippi State) in the double-header against Memphis on April 17.

For Chavanne, some of that ability to reach game-after-game comes from the fact that she’s one of the toughest players in the nation to strikeout, ranking sixth in all of NCAA Division I in that category after K’ing just four times in 171 total at-bats (as of May 24) Gibson has walked an impressive 45 times in 2012 and owns a team-best 13 HR’s, including her first career inside-the-park HR against Radford on April 10.

Maddi the Magnifi cent... It’s hard to describe just how dominant sophomore Madison Shipman was at the plate during the week

of April 3-9, but I’ll give it a try. On her way to ESPNU Capital One Impact Performer of the Week (April 7) and her initial SEC Player of the Week (April 9) accolades, the 6-1 shortstop hit .350 overall with a triple, four HR’s and 13 RBIs over a five-game stretch. The Valencia, Calif., native homered in all three games against the Tigers, and four times overall at AU, blasted her third career grand slam during the 9-1 (5 inn.) series-opening win over Auburn and registered a career-high two HR’s in Tennessee’s 6-2 victory in the finale. She also recorded a clutch RBI triple and later scored in the 10th inning to break a 3-3 dead-lock during the 5-3 (10 inn. ) win at AU while her two-RBI single during the third frame of the DH finale against #9 Georgia on April 4 proved the game-winner as Tennessee topped the ‘Dogs, 2-1.

Notes...

Shipman went on a CAREER-LONG 10-GAME HITTING STREAK (from April 4-April 17) and led the league (counting SEC contests only) in RBIs (33), rated in a tie for seventh in HR’s (six), in a tie for ninth in runs scored (19), was tied for 12th in hits (27) and was ninth in slugging percentage (.591) . Overall, counting all contests, Shipman possesses a .327 batting average (65-of-199) with 11 doubles, two triples, 10 HR’s and 63 RBIs.

A Rugged Slate Tennessee hasn’t been bashful about facing off against top competition thus far in 2012. The Big Orange has already faced off against 17 TEAMS THAT WERE

PART OF THE 2011 NCAA TOURNAMENT FIELD OF 64, posting a 23-8 record in those match-ups. Included are victories over #1 and defending national cham-pion Arizona State, San Diego State, Texas Tech, Western Michigan, #20/17 Georgia Tech, Illinois State, Memphis, #3/4 Florida, #1 Alabama, Kentucky (two wins), #9/10 Georgia, Auburn (four wins), #22/21 LSU (three wins), Memphis (two wins), #9/8 Louisville and UAB with losses against #4/3 Cal, at #13 Texas, vs. #3/4 Florida (three defeats), #1 Alabama, Kentucky and #9/10 Georgia.

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 39

TIMES. In fact, UT has posted at least one three-run outburst in a frame during 35 OF ITS 61 GAMES played this season. To this point the largest single frame scor-ing total came in the fifth inning of the 8-2 win over Radford on April 10 as the Big Orange put up eight tallies.

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 79 CONSECUTIVE GAMES versus non-conference, regular-season opponents during breaks from its rugged SEC slate.

Hard to Catch Raven! Opposing catchers must have nightmares consisting of Tennessee speedster Raven Chavanne swiping bases. The Thousand Oaks, Calif., native hadn’t been

thrown out on the base paths since March 11, 2011, at Kentucky, during which time she STOLE 40 CONSECUTIVE BASES, before finally being caught on April 15 in the series finale against #22/21 LSU. The junior third baseman had played in 83 games for the Big Orange over that stretch. During her career in the Orange & White, Chavanne has only been caught 12 times with six of those having occurred in her freshman campaign. As a junior she has stolen 32 bases in 35 attempts, a 91% success percentage.

Bring on the Extra Softball Tennessee now owns an 12-6 mark over its last 18 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, in a 3-1 (11 inn.) defeat to #9/10 Georgia on April 4, 2012, and to #7 Florida by a 2-1 (8 inn) count on May 11, 2012, in the SEC Tournament semifi nals.

Only once in program history prior to this season had Tennessee played three 10-inning contests during a single year (2004). The 2012 campaign marks the fi rst time in Lady Vol history that the Big Orange have been through two 11-inning games in the same season.

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 FIVE WALK-OFF WINS during the

2012 campaign, three 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.) triumph 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 allowed junior Melissa Brown to cross from third and end the second game of the DH against Furman on March 27, 8-0 (6 inn.). 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. Most recently, freshman Hannah Akamine contributed a two-RBI single to conclude a 10-2 (6 inn.) triumph over #22/21 LSU on April 15.

Just Say No...Hitter Tennessee pitchers have already totaled TWO NO-HITTERS AND A PERFECT GAME this season, improving the program’s all-time total to a staggering 39.

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, and added a five-inning perfect game in a 9-0 (5 inn.) victory over Ole Miss (April 28). The duo has also just missed putting up four more no-nos this season. Ivy blanked Furman until there were two outs in the top of the seventh on March 27 before giving up a single and took a no-no 6.1 innings against #22/21 LSU on April 14 before allowing a hit. Ellen permitted a HR with two outs in the top of the seventh to #9/10 Georgia on April 4 and had a perfect game going into the fourth frame at Auburn on April 6 before allowing a HR and settling for a one-hitter in a 9-1 (5 inn.) triumph.

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 five, followed by Megan

THE LAST TIME...

Rhodes (three), Stephanie Humphrey and Stacey Jennings (two each), Ellen Renfroe, Buffy Walker, Leigh Ann Ellis and Jackie Beavers (one each).

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 Thousand Oaks, Calif., native has now reached base leading

off UT’s first turn at the plate 24 TIMES IN HER 52 GAMES (46%) during 2012. Included in that total are 15 singles, two triples, a double, five 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 144 TIMES IN 278 TOTAL

CHANCES OR 52% OF THE TIME she’s had an opportunity to set the table for the UT offense (41-of-83 in 2012, 49%)

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 26 of their contests in

2012 and are 20-6 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, 50 OF THE LADY VOLS’ RUNS HAVE COME IN THE FIRST INNING.

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+ strikeout mark on three different occasions and fired a shut-

out 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 national 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 rates as one of the top pitchers in the nation, sporting a 27-3 record, a 1.21 ERA and 273 strikeouts. In league play she finished at 13-3 overall with a 1.14 ERA and picked up wins over #3 Florida (March 9), #1 Alabama (March 21) and #22/21 LSU (April 13). She 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.

Got Talent on the UT Bench! Tennessee is currently tied for second in the SEC in total pinch hits (with 15 this season over 61 at-bats) and third in pinch-hit batting average at .246 (15-for-61).

Two of those 15 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. Senior utility player Shelby Burchell blasted a pinch-hit, two-run double in the 8-0 (5 inn.) win at Arkansas on March 16, senior Holly Baker had a RBI single in the sixth frame of a 10-3 win at Mississippi State (March 24), Davin knocked in a pair via a single in a 9-1 (5 inn.) rout at Auburn on April 6 and Morgan Fowler singled off the wall as UT topped Radford (April 10), 8-2. Most recently on April 15, freshman Hannah Akamine ripped a pinch-hit base knock to center for two walk-off RBIs as Tennessee downed #22/21 LSU, 10-2 (6 inn.).

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 103-3 OVERALL against a combination of 10 Tennessee schools. Co-head coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly have gone 69-0 against in-state programs since arriving at Rocky Top. UT HAS ALSO WON 75 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 10-0 versus Tennessee State, 6-0 against Lipscomb, 3-2 against Chattanooga, 4-0 versus Memphis and 1-0 against UT-Martin.

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 defending 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 victories 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.

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 19 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 17 other occasions, just missing adding even more turns through the batting order 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.

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 134 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.

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

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 vic-tory 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 was 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 contin-ues her recovery from off-season surgery on her right knee. She played in just two games at the Kajikawa Clas-sic before being declared unavailable for the remainder of the weekend, but did get at-bats in the designated player spot at the Time Warner Invitational, the NFCA Leadoff Classic amd the Tennessee Classic.

Several Lady Vol softball players have received numerous accolades in 2012.

2012 LADY VOL SOFTBALL HONORS

Page 8: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

8 TENNESSEE SOFTBALL /// HOSTS THE KNOXVILLE SUPER REGIONAL

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.

We Love the Spotlight The Tennessee Lady Vols have BEEN FEATURED ON TELEVISION 13 TIMES during the 2012 campaign via ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, SportSouth, CSS or The Long-

horn Network (at Texas on Feb. 19). UT is 9-4 thus far on television in 2012 with wins over #1 Alabama, #9/10 Georgia, Auburn (two wins), #22/21 LSU (two wins) and Ole Miss (three wins) and losses to #13 Texas, #1 Alabama, #9/10 Georgia and #7 Florida.

Seven of Tennessee’s televised games took place within the friendly confines of Lee Softball Stadium. UT made its league television debut on the road at Ala-bama on March 21 as CSS disseminated both ends of the doubleheader against the Crimson Tide (5 p.m. ET). The Orange & White made it TV home debut at Lee Stadium on April 4 with CSS televising both games of the Lady Vols’ DH against Georgia (5 p.m. ET). For a pair of weekends in April, Tennessee might as well have called ESPN/ESPNU home as UT ventured 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 that were distributed live via ESPN at noon and 4 p.m. ET, respectively. Finally, the Big Orange hosted Ole Miss over April 27-29 with all three contests being shown via SportSouth.

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 89 TIMES. AN AMAZING 61 OF THOSE 89 HAVE BEEN BROADCAST VIA THE ESPN FAMILY OF NETWORKS.

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.

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. 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.

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.

On April 11 it was announced that Chavanne and Renfroe had made the cut to the Top 25 fi nalists, giving the Lady Vols at least one Top 25 fi nalist for nine years in a row. Chavanne was included among the fi nal 11 in a May 9 announcement, marking rhe second consecutive season that she made that cut.

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. Here is how the Lady Vol pitchers have fared all-time in their starting debuts with bold representing victories:

Madison Shipman ready to lead Lady Vols 6-1 shortstop grows into role

By Mike Griffith

Thursday, May 24, 2012

Tennessee sophomore Madison Shipman is ready to come out swinging against Georgia.

But as UT co-head softball coach Ralph Weekly explained, it's nothing personal.

"Madison is a free swinger, there's no doubt about that, and she's so talented we're not going to take the bat out of her hands,'' Weekly said Thursday. "She's somebody we want up in the clutch situations.''

The No. 7-seeded Lady Vols (50-11) play host to No. 10-seeded Georgia (44-15) in a best-of-three Super Regional at Lee Stadium with a trip to the Women's College World Series in Oklahoma City, Okla., on the line.

UT plays the Bulldogs on Saturday (TV: ESPNU, noon) in the first game, with ESPN-televised games to follow at 1 p.m. on Sunday, and — if necessary — 4 on Sunday. All tickets have been sold.

Shipman, the only Lady Vols player to earn first-team All-SEC honors and be named to the league's All-Defensive team, says she gladly accepts the pressure that will be placed on her against Georgia.

"My job in the three spot is to get people in, and I thrive on pressure situations,'' said Shipman, who anchored the Lady Vols' No. 1-ranked recruiting class of 2010 as the No. 2-ranked recruit in the nation coming out of Valencia (Calif.) High School.

Tennessee is 42-2 when it scores three runs or more this season, and as the No. 3 hitter in the lineup, the 6-foot-1 Shipman knows much of the run production is on her broad shoulders.

"I like getting it done for my team,'' Shipman said. "In the regional, we knew our backs were to the wall after we lost that first game, but it wasn't like we were scared.

"We knew we'd come out throwing punches, and it will be the same way against Georgia, because they have great pitching and great hitting.''

Page 82: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

Shipman, who leads UT with 63 RBIs and was tops in the SEC in league games with 33, said she's always been an aggressive hitter. It was as much out of necessity in her early travel ball years as anything else.

"I was always one of the smallest players on my team, because I always played up in age classification, going right from 14-under ball to 18-under gold ball,'' Shipman said. "I was only 5-5 until my sophomore year, and then I shot up to 6-1. I remember every time I went to field a grounder, it seemed like the ground was farther away.''

Weekly said Shipman has become one of the best defensive shortstops in the nation.

"Madison has the best range and strongest arm we've ever had at shortstop, and she deserves a lot of credit because she has significantly improved her defensive game,'' Weekly said. "I'd be surprised if she isn't an All-American this season.''

As much as Shipman would like to see her name listed on the Lady Vols left field wall with four other teammates who have attained All-American status, she's moreinterested in being recognized on Lee Stadium's right field wall for another World Series appearance.

"I think we're in a good position,'' she said. "With school being out, we've had a lot more time to work on the little things and watch film. I can see (Georgia pitcher) Erin Arevalo in my sleep.''

By the end of the weekend, Shipman and the Lady Vols can only hope they will beappearing in the Bulldogs' nightmares.

Lady Vols sweep Virginia Tech to advance to Super Regionals By Mike Griffith

Sunday, May 20, 2012

There wasn’t a Tennessee softball celebration Sunday afternoon as much as there was a collective sigh of relief.

The Lady Vols are headed for their fifth NCAA softball tournament Super Regional in eight years, but UT had to do it the hard way.

The No. 5-ranked and No. 7 seed Lady Vols (50-11) swept a pair of games from Virginia Tech (42-21) at Lee Stadium, winning the opener 2-1 before finishing off the Hokies, 10-2, in the decisive game of the double-elimination NCAA regional.

“These kids refused to lose,’’ said UT co-head coach Ralph Weekly, whose team came through the loser’s bracket with four wins after falling 1-0 to Miami (Ohio) on Friday. “Itold you Friday we weren’t done. We have a driving desire to get back to the Women’s College World Series.’’

The Lady Vols play host to 11th-ranked and No. 10 seed Georgia (44-15) in a best-of-three Super Regional next week. The winner advances to the WCWS. The first of the two-day Super Regionals begin Thursday, but dates and times for the 16-team field have yet to be determined.

The Bulldogs, who beat North Carolina 2-1 on Sunday, split with UT in Knoxville on April 4. Georgia won 3-1 in 11 innings before dropping the nightcap of the doubleheader, 2-1.

History is on UT’s side; the Lady Vols have advanced to the WCWS the four previous times they’ve won a regional, most recently in 2010.

Sunday, however, was about breaking a trend as UT had never won a regional after falling into the loser’s bracket.

“That definitely was a motivator,’’ said Lady Vols senior Shelby Burchell, who finished the regional 8-of-16 hitting including a 3-for-4 performance in the deciding game. “As a senior, there’s nothing more you can ask for than to see your team pull together. That loss to Miami let us know these teams are for real and helped us get our act together.’’

All-SEC shortstop Madison Shipman, 8-for-16 hitting with five RBI, got things started for UT before Sunday’s capacity crowd of 1,718 with a solo home run in the first inning of the first game off Jasmin Harrell (31-15).

Tennessee added a run in the bottom of the fifth when Tory Lewis singled and later scored on Kat Dotson’s hit up the middle.

UT pitcher Ivy Renfroe (22-8) made the lead stand up, allowing just four hits en route to the complete game victory.

The Lady Vols jumped to a 2-0 lead in the second game when Burchell drove an RBI double to the wall and Lauren Gibson dropped down a run-scoring squeeze bunt.

Virginia Tech rallied with a run in the bottom of the first off UT starter Ellen Renfroe, butthe Lady Vols were back in command after scoring five runs in the third off Harrell. Burchell hit another RBI double to spark the third-inning onslaught.

Weekly made sure he didn’t let the lead slip when the Hokies singled and drew a walk to open the bottom of the third, going back to the hot hand in the bullpen, Ivy Renfroe.

“My job is to win regionals,’’ Weekly said. “I didn’t want to risk putting our team in peril, and I knew Ivy could come in and blow them away.’’

Ellen Renfroe, an All-American 27-game winner, has had pitch-location issues the past month.

Ivy Renfroe surrendered a single and a run before escaping the jam in the third with UT up, 7-2.

“You get a little worn down, but you just have to realize you’re not going to be perfect,’’ said Ivy Renfroe, who allowed two runs and two walks in 27 regional innings. “I was just throwing strikes and relying on my defense.’’

John Adams: Lady Vols win regional and bring back memories By John Adams

Sunday, May 20, 2012

Tennessee's only softball shortcoming Sunday afternoon was seating.

The Lady Vols had more than enough hitting, defense and pitching to sweep a doubleheader from Virginia Tech in winning the NCAA Regional. But they could have used a few more seats to accommodate their fans at a sold-out Lee Stadium.

You don't have to be a softball fan to appreciate this team. You just have to be a Tennessee fan.

The team's appeal extends beyond its record (50-11) or ranking (fifth nationally). It provides a connection to better days at a school now struggling in a multitude of sports.

"It's all about the players," UT co-head coach Ralph Weekly said after 2-1 and 10-2 victories, which advanced his team to this week's Super Regional.

Boy, is it about the players — just as it was about the players when UT was a football powerhouse in the 1990s, when the Lady Vols basketball team went 39-0 in winning one of their eight national championships in 1998 and when baseball popped up in theCollege World Series in 2005. If you want to see that caliber of athlete at UT now, you need a seat at Lee Stadium.

While UT is rebuilding in more sports than not, this team is built. Four of its players have been honored as All-Americans in the last two years. Third baseman Raven Chavanne leads the SEC in batting average and hits and is third in steals, shortstop Madison Shipman is second in the conference in RBIs, and pitcher Ellen Renfroe is second in earned-run average and strikeouts. The Lady Vols started five .300-plus hitters against Virginia Tech and lead the nation in defense.

All that might not be enough to certify them as the best team in the country. But Tennessee has enough of the nation's premier players to establish softball as its marquee program.

Co-coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly have led the Lady Vols to nine consecutive NCAA tournaments and four Women's College World Series by recruiting the best

players in the country. Their last three recruiting classes have been ranked either at or near the top.

Geography hasn't been a factor, just as it didn't seem to be a factor for UT football during much of the 1990s. Six Lady Vols, including Chavanne, are from California.

"She's the best third baseman I've had," said Ralph Weekly. "And that includes two Olympic teams."

Chavanne, one of seven juniors on a team that has only four seniors, repeatedly frustrated the Hokies with diving catches in fair or foul territory, had four hits in seven at-bats and flashed the speed that turned recruiters' heads as a high school sprinter in Thousand Oaks, Calif.

Her athletic background is intriguing. While she seems blessed with athletic genes, she said she's the first member of her family, which includes four siblings, to play sports. But she's quick to acknowledge that her father, Kevin, has speed and her mother, Jamie, has good hands.

Her affinity for sports was as evident as her athleticism at an early age. She became a huge Los Angeles Lakers fan when she was playing childhood soccer.

"My dad took me to a Lakers game when I was 6," she said. "I fell in love with the NBA."

She fell in love with the Lady Vols about the same time, but that had nothing to do withsoftball. She was enamored with UT's 1998 team, which featured "the Meeks" —Chamique Holdsclaw, Tamika Catchings and Semeka Randall.

"I would watch them with my dad every time they were on TV," she said. "I wanted to play basketball for (coach) Pat Summitt."

She had forgotten about that childhood fantasy until she made her official recruiting visit to UT and saw a photo of Holdsclaw. Like Holdsclaw, Chavanne has now become one of the best players in her sport while developing her skills at UT.

And like Holdsclaw, she reminds UT fans of the natural ability that it takes to competefor championships,

Lady Vols stay alive in NCAA regional By Mike Griffith

Saturday, May 19, 2012

Backs to the wall, the Tennessee softball team came out swinging at the NCAA Regional on Saturday at Lee Stadium to avoid elimination.

The Lady Vols scored consecutive run-rule victories in loser-go-home games, defeating UAB 8-0 in five innings and Miami (Ohio) 8-0 in six innings before a near-capacity crowd of 1,627.

Tennessee (48-11) must defeat Virginia Tech (42-19) twice today to advance to the Super Regionals against the winner of the Georgia Regional.

In eight previous NCAA regionals under co-head coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly, the Lady Vols have never advanced to Super Regionals after losing a game in regional action.

The fifth-ranked Lady Vols play the Hokies at 1:30 today. With a win, UT would playVirginia Tech again at 4 p.m. with the regional title on the line. It's the same situation as 2008, when Virginia Tech beat UT at Lee Stadium to advance to the Super Regionals.

The Hokies advanced to today's game with a 6-0 win over Miami (Ohio) in the first of Saturday's three games.

Ivy Renfroe (21-8) picked up both victories in the circle for the Lady Vols on Saturday, coming on in relief her sister, Ellen, in each game.

Ellen Renfroe struggled with her location, leading to Ivy pitching eight of the 11 innings, during which she didn't allow any runs or walks while striking out 10 and scattering fivehits.

"Ellen had a small issue which has been fixed, and I guarantee you will see both pitchers tomorrow,'' Ralph Weekly said. "We like

to say there are three kinds of coaches: those that make things happen, those thatwatch things happen, and those who say, 'What the heck just happened?'

"I had to make the pitching changes when I did, and our team was determined to make

things happen today.''

The Lady Vols opened Saturday with the win over the Blazers (37-22) thanks in large part to senior Shelby Burchell's 3-for-3 hitting performance.

Weekly had dropped Burchell to eighth in the batting order heading into the day.

"To be honest, I was hoping to motivate Shelby,'' Weekly said. "I didn't know it would motivate her that much.''

The Lady Vols blitzed three Blazers' pitchers with 10 hits, ending the Alabama school'sseason by batting through the order and scoring four runs in the top of the fifth before Ivy Renfroe shut them down in the bottom of the inning.

"When that (loss) happened to Tennessee (Friday) night, we knew they'd come outbattling and we'd have to hit with them, and we didn't,'' UAB coach Marla Townsend said. "You give them momentum on their field, and that's all they need.''

The Lady Vols' battle with Miami (41-20) was a matter of solving senior pitcher Jessica Simpson (32-15), who became just the second pitcher to shut them out all season with her 1-0 win Friday night.

UT broke through for a run when Tory Lewis scored on a wild pitch in the third inning before adding one run in both the fourth and fifth innings.

The Lady Vols didn't break the game open until there were two outs in the sixth, when they scored five runs on five hits. UT struck for 13 hits, with each starter getting a hit off Simpson.

"It was almost like they smelled the blood in the water when they had us on the ropes,'' RedHawks coach Kelly Kovach Schoenly said. "(Ivy Renfroe) throws it hard, but she's not a one-pitch player. Their staff called a great game and kept us guessing.''

Tennessee cruises into tourney May 18, 2012 By Graham Hays

Rare is the NCAA tournament in which all 16 national seeds advance to the super regional round. With more than 90 games awaiting in regional play this week, ESPN.com's Graham Hays breaks down the seeds, the sleepers and the players who could shake up the opening round.

Knoxville regional

Friday: Tennessee vs. Miami (Ohio); UAB vs. Virginia Tech

Seed: No. 7 Tennessee

It remains to be seen if the strengths add up to enough to contend for a championship, but there aren't easily discernible weaknesses for the Lady Vols. They have pitching from sisters Ellen and Ivy Renfroe, the latter's strong second half was a key to her team's long winning streak to close the regular season. They have power in the lineup, headlined by Team USA second baseman Lauren Gibson and emerging standout shortstop Madison Shipman. They have a game-changing presence at the top of the order in Raven Chavanne, healthy after a collision late in the campaign left with her with concussion-like symptoms. And they boast the best fielding percentage in Division I, having committed just 26 errors in 56 games.

Strongest challenger: UAB

It's another year and another regional at an SEC location for UAB, which played at Alabama in 2010 and at Georgia in 2011. The Blazers won a game in each of those appearances (beating Alcorn State in 2010 and Florida State in 2011), and several key parts of this team benefitted from those experiences. The senior trio of Mandy Lowman, Kayla Orr and Catherine Crawford all enter the tournament slugging better than .500 with on-base percentages better than .400 for an offense that had its moments (most notably a 19-0 win against Massachusetts and a 20-7 win against Kentucky).

Player to watch: Courtney Liddle, Virginia Tech. Two players in Virginia Tech history own career slugging percentages of .500 or better: Liddle and former standout Megan Evans. Liddle isn't going to be able to carry the team at the plate the way former ace Angela Tincher once did in the circle, but she will be vital in a regional with good pitching on all fronts. The Hokies still aren't an offensive juggernaut by any stretch of the imagination, but between freshman Lauren Gaskill (22 stolen bases, .421 on-base percentage) and Liddle, they are back in the NCAA tournament in part because of improved run production.

Miami (Ohio) shuts down Lady Vols, 1-0 Miami wins regional duel

By Mike Griffith

Friday, May 18, 2012

Tennessee's talent has not been in question this softball season.

The Lady Vols grit and resolve, however, has at times been doubted.

The verdict will play out this weekend after Miami (Ohio) stunned No. 5-ranked UT on Friday, winning a 1-0 pitchers' duel to drop the Lady Vols into the loser's bracket of the double-elimination NCAA regional at Lee Stadium.

The RedHawks (41-18) play Virginia Tech (41-19) in today's first game at 1:30 p.m. The winner advances to Sunday's 1:30 p.m. championship game. UT (46-11) plays No. 3 regional seed Alabama-Birmingham (37-21) at 4 today in an elimination game. The winner plays an elimination game at 6:30 tonight against the loser of today's first game.

"All the credit goes to Miami, they flat out beat us,'' UT co-head coach Ralph Weekly said. "But we're not done. We won (19) games in a row last month, and we can win four (in a row) again.''

The Mid-American Conference tournament champion RedHawks, seeded fourth in the regional and carrying a deceptive No. 64 RPI, scratched out the only run they needed in the first inning.

Kirstie Fehrenback led off with a slap single that bounced over third baseman Raven Chavanne, and she advanced to second on a groundout to Chavanne. Fehrenback went to third on Shanyn McIntyre's groundout to second, andshe scored when Daniela Torres fisted a single up the middle.

Lady Vols pitcher Ivy Renfroe (19-8) retired the next 19 batters in order.

Miami (Ohio) pitcher Jessica Simpson (32-13), meanwhile, scattered five hits while fanning six to become the second pitcher this season to shut out Tennessee.

"She's as good as we've seen all year,'' Weekly said. "I don't know if she's that good all the time, but she sure was good tonight. They came in fired up and played outstanding in every aspect. We had several All-Americans go down in critical situations.''

Page 91: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

The Lady Vols put two All-Americans on base with one out in the first when Kat Dotsonsingled to left field and Lauren Gibson drew a walk. Madison Shipman's liner to second was snared out of the dirt, and Dotson was doubled off second to end the threat.

The game sped by in 89 minutes before the crowd of 1,598.

"It's a very exciting place to play, and our girls really haven't played in front of a crowd like that,'' Miami (Ohio) coach Kelly Kovach Schoenly said. "We tried to embrace it and pretend they were cheering for us the whole time.''

UT fans didn't have much cause for applause; the Lady Vols managed to get a runner past first base on just one occasion after the first inning.

"There's no point in getting mad, angry or frustrated,'' Chavanne said. "Now, it's just single elimination.''

In eight previous NCAA regionals under the Weeklys, UT hadn't lost a first game. UT has advanced four times out of regionals to the Super Regionals and Women's College World Series, but not after a regional loss.

For Tory Lewis, news is big batting ninth Center fielder 'performs with attention' for UT

By Mike Griffith

Thursday, May 17, 2012

Tory Lewis not only doesn't mind being in the spotlight, she practically bathes in it.

"That's when she's at her best,'' Tennessee co-head softball coach Ralph Weekly said. "She's a big-time player whose best moments have come in the big games.''

The sophomore center fielder was 3-for-3 with a triple in a 9-0 win over Atlantic Coast Conference champion Georgia Tech earlier this year in addition to having a 4-for-7 performance when Tennessee split a doubleheader at then-No. 1 Alabama.

Lady Vols senior Shelby Burchell said simply: "Tory performs with attention.''

That might explain Lewis' penchant for championships during her high school career atChattanooga Girls Preparatory School, where she won a cumulative seven Division II-AA state titles between softball (four), volleyball (two) and track (one).

Lewis believes she and her Lady Vols teammates could be headed for another title in this weekend's NCAA Knoxville Regional at Lee Stadium.

Virginia Tech (40-19) plays UAB (37-20) at 3:30 p.m. today in the first game of the double-elimination tournament before sixth-seeded UT (46-10) plays Miami, Ohio (40-18) at 6.

The winner here advances to next weekend's Super Regionals. If UT wins, it will play host to the champion of the regional Georgia is hosting in a best-of-three series with a trip to the Women's College World Series on the line.

Lewis knows she'll have a tough audience. In addition to having each pitch broken down by her mother, Tara Short, she's also watched closely by her stepfather, former UT and NFL linebacker Eric Westmoreland.

"He always has some good input, advice or tips for me,'' Lewis said. "Everywhere we go, everyone knows him. One time I was getting Peyton Manning's autograph, and I told him Eric Westmoreland says 'Hi.' Peyton said, 'You know E-Mo?!' I was like, geez, even Peyton knows him.''

Page 93: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

Westmoreland, who after playing at UT 1996-99 moved on

to play for the Jacksonville Jaguars and Cleveland Browns 2001-04, coaches linebackers at Chattanooga Baylor.

"I was a catcher, and a lot of people told me that was my best sport; scouts were coming to see me play summer ball,'' said the 35-year-old Westmoreland, who toyed with the idea of playing baseball and football at UT. "I enjoy coming to the games to see Tory play. Attention has never bothered her.''

Lewis bats ninth for the Lady Vols.

In fastpitch softball, it's common for an effective hitter to take that last spot in the order.

"Batting ninth is the second leadoff in my system,'' Weekly said, explaining it's key the No. 9 hitter reaches base with top hitters following her in the order.

Lewis, like lead-off hitter Raven Chavanne and No. 2 hitter Kat Dotson, is a slap hitter who most often relies on her speed to reach base.

"One of the more enjoyable parts of being a slapper is knowing you're making the defense rush to make the play,'' Lewis said. "You know it's a guessing game for them; they don't know if you're going to bunt, hard slap, soft slap or hit away.''

Lewis has a .979 fielding percentage in center field, where she has committed only one error this season. At the plate, she's batting .306 with six stolen bases in six attempts.

Weekly has visions of her becoming even better.

"Once her work ethic catches up with her talent, she'll be unstoppable,'' Weekly said. "I think she's learning how difficult it is to become an All-American. No one does it on talent alone.''

Westmoreland knows that better than anyone, as he had to adjust from being a safety and running back at Marion County High to playing strongside linebacker for the Vols.

Like Lewis, Westmoreland relied on speed and versatility to make plays, as his responsibilities ranged from taking on 300-pound offensive lineman, to covering receivers and chasing down tailbacks.

"I've tried to help Tory where I can, because as a student-athlete she's going through a lot, not just on the field, but with classes and in her social life,'' Westmoreland said. "I told her that everyone has ups and downs, but what matters is how you handle them. When you're not doing well, it's a matter of getting extra time in the batting cage.''

Lewis said she knows she'll need to play a key role if the Lady Vols are to return to the

WCWS for what would be the first time since 2010.

"We know we have all of the pieces on this team,'' Lewis said. "It's just a matter of us putting it all together.''

Lady Vols have home route all way to World Series By Mike Strange

Sunday, May 13, 2012

Tennessee can play its way to the Women's College World Series without leaving Lee Softball Stadium.

The Lady Vols were seeded No. 7 in the 64-team NCAA bracket Sunday night and will host a regional and — if successful — a Super Regional.

A likely Super Regional opponent would be No. 10 seed Georgia, which hosts its own regional.

"We're pleased with the bracket,'' co-head coach Ralph Weekly said Sunday night. "We're seeded number seven, which means you can stay home all the way to the World Series.''

Tennessee (46-10) opens against Miami of Ohio. Virginia Tech and UAB are also in the four-team double-elimination regional that begins Friday.

But nobody knows better than these Lady Vols that hosting a regional doesn't mean a free pass. Last year they were upset when Oklahoma State won the Knoxville regional.

"Anybody can beat you,'' Weekly said. "We've got to take care of the region.''

The Lady Vols have to take care of Miami of Ohio (40-18), which won three games Sunday to capture the Mid-American Conference tournament and automatic bid.

Plus UAB (37-20) and Virginia Tech(40-18). Virginia Tech lost to Georgia Tech in the ACC tournament championship game.

"This bracket gives us a chance to win if we play well,'' Weekly said. "But they're good teams.''

Tickets: All-session tickets are $25 for reserve chair-back seats and $20 for bleachers. They go on sale today at 8:30 a.m. at UTTix.com, at the Thompson-Boling Arena ticket office or by calling 800-332-8653.

Florida hits home run in eighth to beat Lady Vols, 2-1 Florida ends UT win streak at 19

By Laura Owens [email protected]

Friday, May 11, 2012

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Extra innings is a sore spot for Tennessee.

Pinch-hitter Bailey Castro hit a solo home run in the top of the eighth inning off Ivy Renfroe to give third-seeded Florida a 2-1 victory over the second-seeded Lady Vols in the semifinals of the SEC tournament at Rhoads Stadium on Friday.

"Lately, we seem to have those late-inning things against the University of Florida," said Lady Vols co-head coach Ralph Weekly. "It's happened four out of the last five games. Florida is most deserving. I'm not happy we're not playing tomorrow, but these kids laid it on the line, and that's all a coach can ask for."

The No. 5 Lady Vols (46-10) are 1-4 in extra inning games this season. UT's 19-game winning streak was snapped by the No. 7 Gators (46-10). Florida will play Alabama in the championship game today (TV: ESPN, 8 p.m.).

Leadoff hitter Raven Chavanne sparked the Lady Vols in the first with a single and later scored when Madison Shipman's hard grounder to second baseman Katie Medina was booted and wound up in right field for a 1-0 lead.

"When you hold a team like Florida to one run through seven innings, your offense has got to do the job," Weekly said. "I don't have anything to say except we probably should've scored more."

The Gators tied the game in the third on a run-scoring single by Cheyenne Coyle after a passed ball put a runner on second.

In the bottom half of the inning, with runners on first and second and one out, Ashley Andrews tried to score from second base on a single by Kat Dotson. However, Andrews was tagged out by Kelsey Horton on a throw from centerfielder Michelle Moultrie, the SEC Player

of the Year.

Page 97: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

"We went into the game deciding we were going to run, and that was going to be our game plan," Weekly said. "I thought we had a very fast runner there and that we should shoot for it. In retrospect, probably not the best call in the world. Whatever momentum that hurt our team, I'll take responsibility, but I think I'd do it again in a situation likethat."

Renfroe (19-7) allowed six hits and two runs with four strikeouts and two walks. She started the eighth, gave up the home run to Castro on a 3-2 pitch and then after a double down the right field line by Sami Fagan and walking Coyle, was replaced by sister Ellen Renfroe.

Hannah Rogers (27-6) wasn't overpowering for Florida, striking out only two. But she scattered four hits and walked two. Lauren Haeger pitched a perfect eighth.

Tennessee will have to wait to see if it will get to host an NCAA tournament regional. The selection show is Sunday on ESPNU at 10 p.m.

"If we'd won, cool," said Chavanne. "But every game is a battle, and it wasn't an easy winning streak. Now it's over, just flush it. We can't do anything about it, and we'll just start a new one going into post season because that's when it's important."

Lady Vols edge Auburn in SEC softball opener, 2-1 Laura Owens, [email protected]

Originally published 07:16 p.m., May 10, 2012 Updated 07:52 p.m., May 10, 2012

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Holly Baker decided to swing. And it was a good thing the senior did.

Baker hit a leadoff home run in the sixth inning and second-seeded Tennessee held on to defeat seventh-seeded Auburn 2-1 in the quarterfinals of the SEC softball tournament at Rhoads Stadium on Thursday.

“Well, I saw the pitch, and I had two strikes, so I was pretty much swinging,” Baker said. “I feel like that was the first ball all week I hit in the sweet spot, so I was going to two (second base), and then I saw it went out.”

It was Baker’s first home run of the season and only the second of her career.

Baker’s home run off Jenee Loree (11-9) that cleared the wall in between center and left field proved to be very big.

Hilary Mavromat hit a solo home run off Ellen Renfroe with two outs in the seventh to cut the deficit for Auburn (33-21) to 2-1. However, Caitlin Schultze grounded out tothird to end the game.

“I just hate that Hilary didn’t have a kid on when she hit hers,” said Auburn coach Tina Deese.

Next up for the Lady Vols (46-9) is the semifinals today (TV: ESPNU, 3 p.m.) against third-seeded Florida (45-10), a 1-0 winner over LSU. The winner of that game will advance to Saturday’s championship game.

Tennessee extended its win streak to 19.

“All the teams that are left here are good teams,” said Lady Vols co-head coach Ralph Weekly. “They’re all going to regionals. We just got to keep picking them up and do our coaching in practice. But the streak, I don’t have an answer. It’s going to end sometime, but what the heck.”

Page 99: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

The Lady Vols took a 1-0 lead in third when junior Lauren Gibson delivered a two-out single to score sophomore Tory Lewis.

Renfroe (27-3) scattered three hits, struck out four and gave up a walk.

“Ellen hasn’t pitched for a couple of weeks, and Ivy (Renfroe) had the last three starts,” Weekly said. “We were working on one mechanical thing with Ellen, and we decided today that we had to go with Ellen all the way. Ellen had to do this because she’s our ace, and if we’d started Ivy again today, what would we have next week?”

What’s so important about next week? The Lady Vols will starting play in an NCAARegional.

Third baseman Raven Chavanne, who missed last Wednesday’s game against Louisville due to residual concussion effects suffered against Ole Miss on April 29, returned to the starting lineup in her usual leadoff spot. The junior had a single and reached base for the 34th consecutive game.

Before playing Thursday, Chavanne had one practice and only started to run again before the game started.

“She could hit a day or so ago, but today was the first day she could run,” Weekly said. “We didn’t push her.”

The last time the Lady Vols faced Florida was in March as their first SEC opponent, losing two of the three games in Knoxville.

“Anytime you play Florida, you have a tremendous challenge, so we’re just going to try to come out and do the best we can,” Weekly said.

Lady Vols extend win streak to 18 Lady Vols close regular-season on 18-game win streak

By Mike Griffith

Wednesday, May 2, 2012

"High-Scoring Softball" is the name of the book recently released by Tennessee co-head coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly.

Wednesday night, high-scoring softball was the name of the game.

The No. 5 Lady Vols scored an 8-1 victory against No. 8 Louisville in a matchup of the hottest teams in the top 25 before a crowd of 1,511 at Lee Stadium.

Tennessee (45-9) closes the regular season with an 18-game win streak that ranks as the longest among Division I top 25 teams.

The Cardinals (47-3) entered the night having won 18 straight; the eight runs scored by the Lady Vols were the most they'd given up this season.

UT scattered 10 hits among 10 different players.

"We faced three different pitchers tonight who had three very different styles,'' Karen Weekly said. "We had a different plan for each of the pitchers, and that tells me our kids executed the plan and had good at-bats.''

Tennessee All-American Lauren Gibson led off the bottom of the first inning with a towering home run over the center-field wall to give the Lady Vols a 1-0 lead on Louisville starter Tori Collins.

Gibson was subbing in the leadoff spot for fellow All-American Raven Chavanne, who didn't play on account of concussion-like symptoms suffered after a violent collision in Sunday's 2-1 win over Ole Miss.

"I don't think I've batted leadoff since 10-and-under ball,'' said Gibson, who normally bats cleanup and leads UT with 13 home runs. "It was a change; I found it interesting and different.''

The Cardinals battled back for a run off Lady Vols starter Ivy Renfroe (19-6) in the top of the second after Renfroe hit Alicja Wolny with

a pitch to start the inning and Maggie Ruckenbrod delivered a two-out single. It appeared there would be a play at the plate, but the ball scooted under the glove of charging center fielder Tory Lewis and rolled to the wall.

Renfroe settled down, allowing just one more hit while striking out five en route to her 14th consecutive victory in the circle.

Lewis atoned for her error on the second hit Renfroe surrendered with a laser-like throw to the plate to gun down Whitney Arion. Arion had walked, stolen second and was attempting to score on Jennifer Esteban's single.

"I was yelling 'second!' on the throw," Karen Weekly confessed. "I didn't think we had a play at the plate.''

The Lady Vols held a 7-1 lead at that point, doing most of their damage with a four-run third inning against Louisville's Chelsea Leonard (8-1), who had replaced Collins to start the inning.

UT senior Shelby Burchell delivered the big shot in the fourth, a two-RBI triple off the right-field wall that made it 5-1.

The Lady Vols added three runs off the Cardinals' third pitcher, Caralisa Connell. Hannah Akimine singled to drive across two runs in the fifth, and Melissa Brown's RBI-double in the sixth finished the scoring.

"I told the kids I was pleased with them,'' said Ralph Weekly, whose team is off this weekend before traveling to Tuscaloosa, Ala., for the SEC tournament, which begins next Thursday. "But really, we left too many (eight)runners on base.''

Notebook: Wednesday's game was originally scheduled to be played on March 3 but was rained out. ... UT is almost assured to host an NCAA regional May 17-20 and is in good position to host an NCAA Super Regional (May 24-27) should they advance through the first weekend of the NCAA tournament. ... Senior first baseman Cat Hosfield had arthroscopic surgery on her left knee on Monday, keeping her out three to four weeks, according to UT.

Lauren Gibson 'the epitome of a ballplayer' By Mike Griffith

Originally published 09:08 p.m., May 1, 2012 Updated 09:44 p.m., May 1, 2012

Lauren Gibson comes across as the proverbial "girl next door'' with her simple, easy-going way, clean appearance and dainty smile.

But put the Tennessee junior second baseman on the softball field, and her smile vanishes, her eyes sharpen and her muscles grow tense.

"This is serious business to her, and there's no screwing around when she puts on thespikes,'' said Ken Eriksen, who as coach of Team USA last summer batted Gibsonthird in the order of a squad recognized as the best in the world.

"Lauren is the epitome of a ballplayer,'' Eriksen said. "She comes to play every day,she loves to practice, and those things lend themselves to long-term success.''

Gibson has been at the heart of No. 5 Tennessee's 17-game win streak, which the Lady Vols (44-9) will put on the line at 6 tonight against No. 8 Louisville (47-2) at Lee Stadium.

Cardinals coach Sandy Pearsall, whose team has an 18-game win streak, said there aren't any easy outs in UT's lineup, certainly not at clean-up where Gibson bats.

"You have to be careful pitching to all of them, but Lauren is very powerful and can change the game with one swing,'' Pearsall said. "She's been pitched around a lot; you can't make a mistake against her.''

Gibson very rarely makes mistakes in the field, as evidenced by her .994 fielding percentage. She also leads UT with 12 home runs and 42 walks, and in 148 at-bats has struck out just 15 times.

"Lauren is a complete player in every aspect,'' Lady Vols co-head coach Ralph Weekly said. "She's what we call a five-tool player; she can run, hit, throw, field and think, she does it all.''

Gibson, who represents UT softball on no less than two local billboards, remembers the day she decided to take a more performance-oriented approach in life.

Page 103: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

"When I was younger, I was a bad kid,'' said Gibson, who is from Pasadena, Md. "But I remember walking into my kindergarten

class thinking, it's time for me to become something. I became the best student, and I became serious about my sports.

"I think I've always wanted to please other people, my parents, my teachers and mycoaches.''

Gibson makes it a point to be particular about things — on and off the field, according to her teammate, roommate and fellow All-American, Raven Chavanne.

"She only eats at McDonald's, and she gets the same thing every time,'' Chavanne said. "She gets the number four and a tea.''

Two cheeseburgers with fries — ketchup only.

"I don't like pickles and mustard, and definitely not onions,'' Gibson said. "One time they put onions on it, and I took it back.''

There's a right and wrong way to everything in Gibson's world, and she makes it a point to stay on the right side.

Perhaps that's why Gibson lists "public speaking" as one of the things she dislikes most.

"I always want to make sure I say things like they are supposed to be said,'' Gibson said. "In everything I do, I remember I'm representing the University of Tennessee —not just the softball team — but the entire university. That's an honor, and I need to be careful to do it right.''

Chavanne said Gibson is just like anyone else away from the field, fun, light-hearted and funny.

"She's always calm and collected, pretty even keel. I've never seen her lose it, and in three years we've never even had an argument,'' Chavanne said. "At the field? She's strictly business, and that's good. It's good to have that person in the dugout that's like the general.''

Raven Chavanne shows Lady Vols' toughness in 2-1 win Lady Vols end SEC regular season with 17th win in a row

By Mike Griffith

Sunday, April 29, 2012

Tennessee softball fans were reminded on Sunday what lies beneath the ribbons, earrings and makeup worn by the Lady Vols.

UT closed the SEC regular season with a 17th straight win — 13th in league action —a 2-1 victory over Ole Miss before a sellout crowd of 1,843, but not before things gotrough.

Perhaps no player on the Lady Vols (44-9, 22-6 SEC) typifies UT's mix of feminism and athleticism more than All-American third baseman Raven Chavanne.

Chavanne, who missed the first eight games this season with a broken right thumb and has been playing with a sore left shoulder, was involved in a massive collision at first in Tennessee's opening at-bat.

Chavanne was bleeding from her nose, lip and forearm after being de-cleated like afootball receiver taken out over the middle.

"I was crossing the bag and the next thing I know, I'm flat on my back," said Chavanne, whose legs were taken out from under her when she ran into the outstretched glove of Rebels' first baseman Londen Ladner. "Something like that lights a fire, and when ithappens I like taking it out on the field.

"I like it that we look nice as a team, but we're still athletes that can play physical when we need to," she said. "I like doing my makeup, hair and bows, but I'm not afraid to have dirt and blood on me, either."

Chavanne returned to the game at third base the next inning — after a quick trip over to first to find the earring that got knocked out in the collision with the appreciably bigger Ladner.

Sophomore pitcher Ellen Renfroe wasn't as fortunate. She was taken out for good afterthrowing 45 pitches and walking three of the eight batters she faced. Renfroe was

Page 105: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

doubled over in pain on

three occasions before UT turned to Ivy Renfroe (18-6) with two outs in the second.

"Ellen tried to go, but she was under the weather," UT co-head coach Ralph Weekly said. "Today was the first really hot weather (high 80s) we've played in, and it's been a long season."

The Lady Vols season is all the longer when one considers they're the only SEC team yet to have a bye week. Players are also putting in extra hours studying for finals, which begin on Tuesday.

First things first, UT had to be up to the test provided by the Rebels (17-32, 4-21) and pitcher Kendall Bruning (13-17).

The Lady Vols scratched out their first run when Hannah Trainer, running for Chavanne in the first, scored on Melissa Davin's bases-loaded infield hit.

Ole Miss tied it 1-1 in the third when Cali Overback hit a shot off the glove of diving UT second baseman Lauren Gibson.

The play before, Rebels' baserunner Brittany Broom kicked at UT catcher Ashley Andrews after Andrews blocked home and tagged her out.

"That just made us want to take up for Ashley," said Chavanne, who with her 3-for-3 hitting performance raised her average to an SEC-high .439. "Ashley has been through a lot this season."

Andrews missed five games in February after suffering a concussion against Massachusetts, and on April 7 was on the wrong end of a home plate collision at Auburn that led to her getting carted off before being diagnosed with a strained neck.

Andrews was still as fiery as ever Sunday, sprinting home from third on a passed ball with two outs in the fourth to make it 2-1.

The play was bizarre; it came after Ole Miss decided to intentionally walk Madison Shipman. Rebels catcher Marina Parra was standing up outside the strike zone when the pitch rolled past her to the backstop.

"I've never seen that in 25 years, but I don't care how we scored it," Ralph Weekly said. "They're all good wins this time of year."

The Lady Vols were exhausted leaving the field, and yet, they remained in the heat an additional two hours to put on a youth softball clinic.

"They are athletes, and yes, they represent themselves as ladies," Ralph Weekly said,

"but they're tough-minded and they'll dive through a wall for you."

UT closes the regular season at 6 p.m. on Wednesday against No. 9 Louisville (44-2) at Lee Stadium.

Ivy Renfroe throws perfect game; No. 6 UT wins 9-0 Lady Vols win 16th game in a row

Lady Vols win 16th game in a row

By Mike Griffith

[email protected]

Ivy Renfroe pitched the first perfect game of her Tennessee softball career as the Lady Vols served up a reminder of why they're ranked No. 6 in the nation.

UT won its 16th consecutive game with a 9-0 run-rule victory over Ole Miss before a sellout crowd of 1,762 at Lee Stadium on a sun-splashed Saturday afternoon.

"In a perfect game, everything has to go your way," said Renfroe, a junior who struck out six to improve to 17-6 in winning her 12th straight decision. "It's not just a matter of pitching it; it's my teammates and the defense behind me being perfect, too. Really, it's a God thing, and I feel very blessed."

Tennessee All-American third baseman Raven Chavanne saved Renfroe's gem with one out in the top of the fifth, diving to stop a hard shot off the bat of Rebels hitter Cali Overbeck. Chavanne gathered herself to her knees and threw across the diamond, preserving the fifth no-hitter of Renfroe's career as UT improved to 43-9 overall and 21-6 in the SEC. Ole Miss is 17-31, 4-20.

"I knew Ivy had a perfect game, and I was going to do everything I could to knock down

anything hit around me," Chavanne said. "To get a perfect game is amazing, and I'm so happy for Ivy because she's the most unselfish player I've ever played with."

Sophomore Melissa Davin continued her hot hitting, driving two home runs deep over the center-field wall after walking in her first at-bat.

UT co-head coach Ralph Weekly had seen it coming, having moved Davin up a spot to

No. 6 in the batting order for Saturday's game.

"Melissa is strong, she can run, she can throw people out at the plate from the outfield and she can hit the ball out of the park," Weekly said. "It was a good effort from everyone today, but we were still a little slow getting started."

The Lady Vols built a 4-0 lead in the third inning after Chavanne opened the frame with her second hit of the game and her 28th stolen base of the season.

All-American Kat Dotson followed with a bunt single and a steal, putting runners on second and third against Ole Miss pitcher Erinn Jayjohn (3-13). Shortstop Madison Shipman and Lauren Gibson hit consecutive RBI-sacrifice flies to make it 2-0.

Shelby Burchell came through with a two-out double before Davin hit the first of her two home runs to extend the lead to 4-0.

The Lady Vols added five runs in the fourth, and again, it was Chavanne sparking the inning by drawing a one-out walk.

Dotson was hit by a pitch, Gibson delivered an RBI single to make it 5-0, and Burchell was hit by a pitch to put two runners on for Davin.

"I just wanted to see the ball big, and hit it hard," said Davin, who drilled her second home run of the day for her second two-homer game in the past two SEC weekend series. "After the first home run today, I knew I could hit another one."

Weekly said as perfect as Renfroe pitched and his infield played — "it's the best infield we've had here," he said — the Lady Vols are far from a finished product.

"There are still things we need to work on," Weekly said. "We're proud of the way theyplayed today, but I'll borrow a saying from (U.S. Olympic Hall of Famer) LisaFernandez: 'Never be satisfied.'

"Once you're satisfied as a coach, you'll start having big-time problems."

The Lady Vols conclude their series with the Rebels today (TV: 1 p.m., Fox Sports South) before ending the regular season against No. 9 Louisville (44-2) at 6 p.m. on Wednesday at Lee Stadium.

Ralph Weekly gives Lady Vols 'A' for effort, 'C' for performance in victory By Mike Griffith

Friday, April 27, 2012

Perhaps lost amid the wild pitches, controversial plays and sloppy softball Friday night was the continued emergence of Tennessee sophomore Melissa Davin.

Davin drew two walks and got the No. 6 Lady Vols' first hit of the night in a 5-1 victory over Ole Miss before a sellout crowd of 1,773 at Lee Stadium.

The victory was the 15th in a row for UT (42-9, 20-6 SEC) entering today's sold-out game (TV: Fox Sports South, 1 p.m.) with the Rebels (17-30, 4-19).

"I give our team an 'A' for effort but a 'C' for performance,'' UT co-head coach Ralph Weekly said. "We didn't play well in any phase, but we found a way to win.''

Davin, hitting .500 the past five games with a team-leading 1.100 slugging percentage and .615 on-base percentage, was an exception in the performance category.

"I wanted to do so well that I was thinking too much and swinging out of my shoes,'' said Davin, who has raised her batting average to .282 and her on-base percentage to .414. "So now, I get in the box and just trust my hands. It has been a matter of spending a lot of extra time in the batting cage and not thinking about it.''

Weekly didn't know what to think at the start Friday night.

UT ace Ellen Renfroe (26-3) was uncharacteristically wild in the opening inning, walking three batters and throwing a wild pitch that enabled Ole Miss to jump out to a 1-0 lead.

"It was a called drop ball and it hit the pole on top of the backstop,'' Weekly said, allowing himself a smile. "Ellen has been fantastic all season, but she had one of those nights.''

Renfroe struck out eight and allowed just one hit through the first 4 2/3 innings, but she surrendered five walks and the bases were loaded when she gave way to sister Ivy Renfroe in relief.

Page 110: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

Ivy Renfroe air-mailed her first warm-up pitch three feet over the catcher's head, sending a buzz through the anxious crowd.

"I was just a little too amped up,'' said Ivy Renfroe, who proceeded to induce the Rebels' best hitter, Allison Brown, to hit a lazy shot to second baseman Lauren Gibsonto end the threat en route to her third save of the season. "I told Ellen, I know how it is when you don't feel good and you're having one of those games; it has happened to me plenty of times.''

The Lady Vols collectively were having one of "those games" until Davin opened the third off Ole Miss pitcher Kendall Bruning (13-16) with a single, sparking a three-run rally highlighted by Madison Shipman's two-RBI double.

UT padded its lead in the fifth when Gibson ripped a two-RBI shot off the glove of second baseman Corrine Doornberg.

Gibson's liner was ruled a hit, and the teams officially combined for two errors, but there were a handful of other hits that could have been ruled errors.

Ole Miss argued three close plays on the basepaths; a force at second, a tag at second and a low line drive ruled a catch by UT first baseman Melissa Brown, leading to a double play.

TV replays showed the umpired got two of the three calls correct; the missed call involved Shipman dropping a throwdown on a stolen base attempt, costing the Rebels their only runner in the second inning.

Ivy Renfroe allowed just one base runner over the final 2 1/3 innings, as Ole Miss lost for the 12th time in the past 13 games.

Tennessee's sellout was its seventh in 12 SEC home games to this point this season. In addition to today's game, Sunday's 1 p.m. game against Ole Miss also is a sellout. Tickets remain for UT's regular-season finale at 6 p.m. on Wednesday against No. 8 Louisville (43-2) at Lee Stadium.

Senior Ashley Andrews is 'the boss out there' for Lady Vols Senior Andrews a 'calming' force for Lady Vols

By Dave Link

Tuesday, April 24, 2012

She can play shortstop, catcher, or the outfield.

She can bat right-handed or left-handed. She can hit for power from either side or be a slapper from the left side.

Oh, and one other thing.

Tennessee senior Ashley Andrews can also serve as unofficial player/psychologist for the softball team. She will earn her degree in psychology this summer.

No wonder Andrews can settle down the Lady Vols when even their coaches can't.

"She's calming, she's a leader, she's the captain, no question," UT co-head coach Ralph Weekly said. "She's the boss out there on the field, and she definitely calms them down when they need it."

Andrews learned to take charge of a team in the summer of 2009 — before her freshman year at UT — when her travel-team coach let her do the on-the-field managing.

It was her initiation into a role she has grown to love.

"I don't rule by the sword, or whatever, but I love to have fun and encourage my teammates," Andrews said. "That's what I love to do, just try and make them feelcomfortable."

Andrews will continue her role the rest of her senior season, which continues today when the No. 6 Lady Vols (40-9) play host to Tennessee State (11-34) for a doubleheader at Lee Softball Stadium. First game starts at 5 p.m.

Andrews' contributions to the Lady Vols go far beyond the leadership role.

Page 112: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

"I think she's a great

player, best defensive player all-around we've ever had here, no question," Weeklysaid.

At what position?

"At any position. Wherever we put her," said Weekly, in his 11th season as UT's co-head coach with his wife Karen.

The Weeklys recruited Andrews as a catcher out of Turnwater (Wash.) High School, but when she got to Knoxville, the Lady Vols already had All-American catcher Tiffany Huff.

No problem. Andrews moved to starting shortstop for two years — until the Weeklys brought in Madison Shipman to play shortstop. So Andrews moved to catcher for the 2011 season.

This season, Andrews moved to center field — in large part to stabilize a youthful outfield — with the addition of freshman catcher Hannah Akamine.

Now, Andrews is back at catcher as the Lady Vols make their stretch run.

"Really wherever I'm playing, I don't really care, as long as I'm in the lineup," Andrews said. "I truly just love catching. Right now, there's nowhere else I'd rather be."

Andrews is hitting .264 in 45 games this season and has eight RBIs and 23 runs scored. She went 3-for-4 with four RBIs last Sunday as the Lady Vols beat South Carolina for their 13th consecutive victory.

After starting the season hitting from the left side, Andrews has moved back to the right, where she hit at South Carolina.

"She's a true switch hitter, the first one I've ever coached," Ralph Weekly said. "She can hit from both sides. She's more finesse hitter from the left side, but she does have power from the left side, and she's more of a power hitter from the right side. I guess the big thing is she's the first real true switch hitter I've seen who is equally as good from both sides."

Andrews spent most of her softball career hitting right-handed, but did some slap hitting the summer before coming to UT and stayed as a slapper her freshman year. She went back to the right side in 2010, when left-hitters Kat Dotson and Raven Chavanne joined the Lady Vols.

This season, she has hit from both sides.

Page 113: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

"Just to be able to have the flexibility to go right or left in different situations gives the coaches the opportunity to put someone in there who can give a different look to the team," Andrews said.

Andrews was the starting shortstop in 2010 when the Lady Vols reached the Women's College World Series.

She calls it an indescribable experience, one that inspires her every day.

"It does give me a lot of motivation," Andrews said. "I want to go back. It's my last year. I want all my teammates to go back. You never know when it's your last day playingball, so not only for me and the three other seniors but for all of my other teammates to be able to go."

Melissa Davin powers Lady Vols at South Carolina, 8-0 By News Sentinel staff

Friday, April 20, 2012

Melissa Davin hit a pair of home runs for the second time in a game this season and the Tennessee softball team opened a three-game series in Columbia, S.C., with an 8-0, run-rule victory against South Carolina.

Sophomore pitcher Ellen Renfroe tossed a three-hit shutout as the seventh-ranked Lady Vols (38-9, 17-6 SEC) won their season-best, 11th-straight game. UT improved to 29-15 all-time against the Gamecocks (23-24, 3-17).

Davin, a sophomore shortstop, went 3-for-3 with four RBIs. The home runs were her fourth and fifth of the season.

Tory Lewis was 1-for-2 with her third triple of the season and a RBI.

Renfroe (24-3) walked two and struck out three over five innings. It was her 21st complete game and NCAA Division I-leading 15th shutout.

"We told our kids that our theme today was to play our own best self," UT co-head coach Ralph Weekly said. "We needed to play as well as we could, because we know how good South Carolina is. We don't pay attention to records. We know that they are a very good hitting team.

"... As for Melissa, we've been watching her every day in practice, and she's been going along strong. We recruited her to be a big-time player at Tennessee, and I'm just really happy for Melissa, because she's been working really hard."

Burchell, Shipman power No. 10 Lady Vols to sweep over LSU RILEY BLEVINS, STAFF WRITER

PUBLISHED: MON APR 16, 2012

With the eyes of a national television audience on No. 10 Tennessee (35-9, 16-6 SEC) and No. 21 LSU (29-13, 11-6 SEC) as ESPN provided coverage of Saturday and Sunday’s contests, the highly touted Lady Vols did not disappoint, sweeping the Tigers in the three-game series over the weekend. “It’s awesome,” said co-head coach Karen Weekly of the national exposure. “I mean, the best thing to happen to the sport of softball in the last eight to 10 years is TV. To be on main ESPN, we are very proud to show off this great facility and this fan base. It was a great showing in front of a national TV audience.” Fronted by the stellar pitching duo of sisters Ellen and Ivy Renfroe, who combined for 15 strikeouts, the Lady Vols’ weekend series was a tale of two offenses. Stranding an uncharacteristic 11 base runners Friday, Tennessee utilized yet another long-ball from sophomore Madison Shipman to etch a series-opening 2-0 win. Jumping on the first pitch she saw in the bottom of the second, Shipman snuck her career-best ninth home run of the year over the left field wall. Giving the team its first lead, the blast marked the shortstop’s fifth home run in Lady Vols’ last five contests. “LSU is a great team and we came out here trying to do the little things right,” Shipman said. “We just came out here ready to play. I’m just glad I could help.” However, a lackluster six base knocks would prove non-fatal for the Lady Vols with sophomore pitcher Ellen Renfroe in the circle. Ellen Renfroe threw a three-hit, complete game en route to throwing her NCAA leading 14th shutout and 19th complete game on the season. “Ellen Renfroe is a fantastic pitcher,” said co-head coach Ralph Weekly. “What you saw there was a great, great pitching performance. I just told ’em that I was proud of ’em, but RBIs are the most important stats in softball and very seldom do you win when you leave 11 runners in scoring position.” The Lady Vols seemed to take Ralph Weekly’s message to heart. Offensive woes would be corrected come Saturday as the Lady Vols, behind junior second baseman Lauren Gibson, bested the Lady Tigers 4-2. Leading the offensive charge, Gibson was 3-for-3 at the plate with a run and an RBI. “We just came out and had a plan today,” Gibson said. “We had a plan yesterday and all, it just seemed to work better today. We had a long chain of good at bats. It was good.” Masked by the offensive barrage, junior pitcher Ivy Renfore silently brought a no-hitter into the seventh inning before surrendering a one-out hit to LSU pinch-hitter Kailey McCasland. “It’s not that big of a deal to me,” Ivy Renfroe said of her near no-hitter. “I know that my defense deserved a no-hitter; they played awesome. If anything, I feel sorry for them. I guess you always are (heartbroken) but really it’s not what matters. I’m just blessed that we won the game.” The Lady Vols continued their impressive offensive showing on Sunday, using the big-inning late to best the Lady Tigers.

Page 116: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

“Once we got going, we all just pulled together and got it done,” said senior Shelby Burchell. “I think any coach would be happy to see us improve on a stat. I think he’s happy with the win.” Junior speedster Raven Chavanne was caught stealing for the first time this season. Before Sunday, the third baseman was 21-for-21 in steal attempts. But the two-time All-American would utilize her speed in other ways in the fifth. Center fielder Tory Lewis reached on a double to shallow left field. Chavanne rolled a bunt down the first-base line. The charging LSU pitcher airmailed the throw with the former all-state track star racing down first, scoring Lewis and giving life to a five-run fifth. Later that same inning, with the bases loaded for Burchell, the right-hander slapped a bases-clearing double to left-center, capping consecutive five-run innings for the Lady Vols. “We’ve really been stressing keeping bats alive in this last couple games,” Burchell said. “I just jumped on it and there it went.” Coming off the bench, freshman Hannah Akamine punched a game-ending, two-RBI single to top the Lady Tigers 10-2 by mercy rule in the sixth.

Tarango used to big stage ANTHONY ELIAS, STAFF WRITER

Cheyanne Tarango

Cheyanne Tarango stepped to the plate. The bases were loaded. She took a step forward and drilled the pitch. The ball took off. Tarango watched the ball head to the fence. She rounded first base as the ball fell over on the other side. Her grand slam blast capped an eight-run inning in the Lady Vols’ 8-2 comeback against the Radford Highlanders on Tuesday. “They don’t really look that pretty,” she said and laughed. “When I hit it, it felt good. I didn’t know if it was going to go out or not, but I knew that it felt good and it was going to be a base hit at least.” Growing up 23 minutes from Disneyland, Tarango was used to seeing others celebrated for their unforgettable moments. The Anaheim Hills, Calif., native had her moment in the ISF World Championships in Cape Town, South Africa. The U.S. Junior Women had already been shut out 7-0 in the first game. The rematch was closer. Unlike the first matchup, Tarango was in the lineup. Tuesday’s at-bats were somewhat similar to the Dec. 17 final. “We were having the same adjustment we were here,” she said. “Our teammates were getting under the ball and there was wind blowing inward and all the balls that everyone hit up were floating back this way.” During Tarango’s first at-bat, she got out on a pop-up. “So my first at-bat,” Tarango said, “I popped up and it went to deep left field, like foul, and she caught it. My first reaction was, ‘OK, I just need to get on top (of the ball).’ That was my whole thought process and when I hit it (the second time), I was like, ‘Ugh, it’s in the air.’” Japan was leading 1-0 at the time of the hit. With the bases loaded and one out, Tarango didn’t know until she reached first base that the ball stayed in the air until it landed over the left field fence. “When I finally got to first base, (my teammates) were like, ‘It went out, it went out,’” she said. “I think the one in Cape Town was more left field.” The go-ahead grand-slam proved to be the game-winner. The U.S. Junior Women upset Japan, 4-1.

Tarango’s move to Knoxville was based on UT, family and a little help from above. She hasn’t had trouble getting used to the area, saying she “felt at home here.” “I actually have some family here,” Tarango said. “My family’s kind of religious so we prayed over it and I felt like this was the right place to be with the chemistry and all of the fans and everything so I felt at home here.” The fan increase from her days at Canyon High School stood out. “I feel like it’s just being comfortable with the team and I guess the environment and what you’re playing in,” Tarango said. “High school, you don’t have this many fans out here cheering for you.” The UT slugger’s home runs have come in critical parts of the game, creating unforgettable moments of her own. She may not think her home runs — like the grand slam she belted Tuesday — look pretty, but the opposing pitchers never see the UT freshman coming. “She has tremendous potential,” UT co-head coach Ralph Weekly said. “She’s only a freshman. She’ll face some tough pitching this weekend. That’s one thing LSU features, but you know she hit .444 against Florida so we’re going to need her to have a big week the rest of the way.” Tarango only has two home runs with UT, but they’ve come in crucial times. Her other homer was a two-run shot to left field against San Diego State earlier this season. The homer pushed the Lady Vols ahead 5-4. San Diego State never saw it coming.

Cat Hosfield, once No. 1 recruit, accepts new role with Lady VolsHosfield, once No. 1 recruit, accepts new role

By Mike Griffith

Thursday, April 12, 2012

Cat Hosfield was once the national high school softball player of the year, the national high school single-season strikeout record holder, the No. 1-ranked recruit in the country and the ace of the Tennessee pitching staff.

Now, in her senior year with the Lady Vols, Hosfield's role is to pinch-hit, pinch-run and occasionally platoon at first base.

"If someone would have told me when I got to Tennessee that my senior year I'd be going into games to pinch run,'' Hosfield said, "I would have laughed at them.''

There's a chance Hosfield might not even get on the field when No. 10 UT (32-9, 13-6 SEC) plays host to No. 22 LSU (29-10, 11-3) in a three-game series which begins at 6p.m. today at Lee Softball Stadium. Hosfield has 21 at-bats in the 22 games she has played.

And yet, as difficult as the situation might seem, Hosfield merely smiles and nods when asked about how she has accepted her new role.

"I've grown as a person, and that's the biggest thing,'' Hosfield said, climbing atop the wooden bench in the home dugout at Lee Stadium on a sunny, breezy day. "That's more rewarding in the long run.''

If that sounds like an athlete merely giving the "right'' answer, it is.

But it's only "right" because it was Hosfield's decision to accept what most wouldconsider a lesser role.

UT co-head coach Ralph Weekly remembers bringing Hosfield into his office at the end of her junior season to discuss her future in the program.

"Ohio State had called and wanted to know if we would release her, so we called her in and asked her if she wanted a release,'' Weekly said. "So we tell her that, and Cat

starts sobbing, and she says, 'Don't you want me?' I said, 'We definitely want you, but we want you to be happy.' ''

Weekly, a retired Air Force commander and Bronze Star recipient, paused for a moment, collecting himself, before continuing: "So we tell Cat we want her to be happy, and she says, "I am happy. I started as a Lady Vol and I want to end my career as a Lady Vol.''

"I have no doubt Cat will be a very successful person, because she already is one,'' said Weekly, who has seen his share of success while accumulating more than 1,000 wins

and serving three assistant coaching stints with the U.S. Olympic team.

"One of our five team cornerstones is Servant Warrior; it means you can be a warrior, and still serve others,'' he said. "Cat epitomizes that.''

Hosfield anchored the Lady Vols' staff her freshman and sophomore seasons, going 28-13 with a 2.67 ERA in 2009 and following up with a 17-8 record and 3.27 ERA in 2010.

But while the former Murfreesboro Riverdale High School standout was tallyingrespectable numbers, sisters Ivy and Ellen Renfroe were emerging from the highschool ranks at Trinity Christian Academy in Jackson and into the Lady Vols' pitching rotation.

"Cat's still a great pitcher and would be No. 1 on most staffs in the country, but when Ivy and Ellen came, our pitching staff got deeper, and it made for a much more competitive situation,'' said Karen Weekly, who serves as co-head coach with her husband, Ralph. "But Cat has been the biggest supporter of Ivy and Ellen since they arrived, and that's what always impressed me about her. She's first one out of the dugout to high-five great pitching performances.

"You couldn't ask for a better person to exemplify what it truly means to Servant Warrior."

Hosfield's high school pitching record has been broken, and her star has faded, but her love for Tennessee appears stronger than ever.

"Ohio State wanted me to come pitch for them, but I felt like I made a commitment to Tennessee, and I love it here, and I love the girls and our team,'' Hosfield said. " I really do bleed orange. I couldn't see myself cheering on another team, even if I was in the position of being their ace pitcher.

"I love pitching, but right now I'm maturing as a person and want to do what's best for the team. Not pitching, I'm around the team a lot more now, and I like my role.''

Hosfield has plans to depart for Holland this summer where she will pitch professionally before returning to UT to attend graduate school.

"We want her back in the dugout when she gets back,'' Ralph Weekly said. "We want her to come back and work with us her fifth and sixth graduate school years. She's a leader, and she represents what it truly means to be a team player.''

Personal goals unimportant for Brown RILEY BLEVINS, STAFF WRITER

PUBLISHED: TUE APR 10, 2012

Melissa Brown applauds after reaching second base during a game against Georgia on Wednesday. Brown comes from a long lineage of baseball players, noting that the support and common bond helped her mature as both a player and a person.

Most people have heard the saying the apple does not fall far from the tree. When it comes to UT softball junior Melissa Brown’s family, it happens to be apples. “My dad was the athletic one; he played basketball, football and baseball and all that,” Brown said. “He went to a junior college and played there. My mom is more pageantry, so definitely, I think I get it from my dad’s side.” However, Brown was not the only one to follow in the footsteps of her father, Douglas. Brown’s twin brother, Trevor, is a junior catcher on No. 8 UCLA’s baseball team. Brown said growing up with Trevor did more than just provide friendly competition. “It was great,” she said. “It was great playing with (Trevor) and it was competitive all the time. It definitely made us both better. We used to, at first, tease each other and say, ‘Come on you could do better,’ but as we got older it’s fun to just see each other play. But it’s been more than just fun. Sure we tease each other, but he definitely pushed me to be the best I could be and taught me to never stop working.” With help from her brother, the Valencia, Calif. native has been striving to earn a starting role in the Lady Vols’ lineup since she arrived on campus. Playing in 31 games with 29 starts this season, Brown has reached her goal and then some. “The past two years my goal has been to earn a starting spot,” Brown said. “At this point, now that I’ve done this, I’m not sure, I guess I’d want to hit for a career .300 or something above that, I guess, if were talking numbers. For now, I just want to hit the ball hard. If I hit the ball hard each at-bat, I’d be more than happy.” Since nabbing a starting spot, Brown has never looked back, coming up clutch for the Lady Vols early on this season, most notably against then-No. 1 Alabama. In March, Brown and the Lady Vols faced the daunting task of traveling to Tuscaloosa to take on the Crimson Tide and its nation-best 26-game winning streak. Still scoreless in the second inning, Brown trotted towards the batter’s box in an at-bat that would change the tone of the entire game.

Page 123: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

Brown fell behind early in the count, taking two straight strikes. After battling off the next 12 pitches, Brown turned on a rising fastball, blasting a three-run home run that rattled off the left field fair pole to give Tennessee a lead it would never surrender. “It was a great moment for (Brown) and the team and really everyone,” said UT co-head coach Ralph Weekly. “It’s always great to see a great girl like Melissa do well and have hard work pay off.” With that said, Brown’s personal memories like her Alabama homer take a back seat to the bigger picture. “You see, it’s really not about personal stuff,” she said. “We obviously we want to get to the (Women’s College) World Series and be a national championship team and win the SEC.” Brown, who is currently hitting .303 with five doubles, five home runs and 18 RBIs, is helping the team do just that. “I mean, I have my goals and the team has their goals,” Brown said. “Yeah, we have goals to beat certain teams, and do certain things in certain games, but we just come out here and try to win every game. “At the end of the day, that’s all that matters, winning and doing our best to go to the World Series. I think we have the team and heart to do it.”

Madison Shipman powers Lady Vols to series sweep of Auburn By News Sentinel staff

Sunday, April 8, 2012

Tennessee's Madison Shipman finished her big weekend on Sunday with a career first.

The Lady Vols sophomore shortstop hit two home runs in a softball game for the first time. She helped power UT to a 6-2 victory over Auburn at Jane B. Moore Field in Auburn, Ala. The victory by Tennessee (31-9, 13-6 SEC) completed its first series sweep on the road against Auburn (26-15, 5-11).

"There are definitely no off days in the SEC," UT assistant coach Marty McDaniel said, "so this was a great weekend for our team in picking up a very important sweep."

Shipman was 2 for 4 with three RBIs. Her two homers upped her season total to 11. For the three-game series, she hit .417 with four homers, a triple and 11 RBIs.

"Maddi was on today at the plate, that's for sure,'' McDaniel said. "It's very good to see her getting hot at the plate for us right now, especially with two homers today and four for the weekend."

Shipman had plenty of help on Sunday. Lauren Gibson was 2 for 4 with a homer — her 11th of the season — and two runs. Raven Chavanne was 2 for 4 and Melissa had a hit and scored a run. Cheyanne Tarango and Hannah Akamine each had an RBI.

Ivy Renfroe (10-6) picked up her 10th victory of the season, allowing two runs on four hits with a walk and five strikeouts in six innings of work. Sophomore Ellen Renfroe worked an inning of relief, striking out the side in the seventh.

Gibson and Shipman hit back-to-back homers in the first inning. It was the first time Tennessee had posted back-to-back HR's since Gibson and Shipman turned the feat during a 10-7 victory against Illinois on Feb. 17 in Austin, Texas.

In the fifth, senior Ashley Andrews, entered the game to play in left field.

"I think maybe our problem was our guys thought they had a good one on Friday (4-2 win over Auburn) so at least we got something out of the weekend, which obviously is completely the wrong mentality," UT coach Sam Winterbotham said. "You have to give Alabama credit. We gave them the opportunity and they took it."

Hunter Reese's singles win accounted for UT's lone point.

Ivy Renfroe, Lady Vols earn split with Georgia By Mike Griffith

Thursday, April 5, 2012

Tennessee was one out away from knocking Georgia out of second place in the SEC East Division on Wednesday night.

Instead, the Bulldogs' Kristyn Sandberg swung and knocked the ball out of Lee Stadium with two outs in the top of the seventh inning, tying the opener of a softballdoubleheader with a 300-foot shot over the scoreboard and breaking up EllenRenfroe's no-hit bid.

The 10th-ranked Bulldogs (30-8, 9-5 SEC), who entered the action percentage points ahead of the ninth-ranked Lady Vols (28-9, 10-6) in the standings, went on to beat UT 3-1 in 11 innings before Tennessee recovered with a 2-1 victory in a nightcap that included a one-hour, 15-minute lightning delay.

"You could feel the respect between the two teams tonight, but we just went out there and slugged it out,'' Lady Vols co-head coach Ralph Weekly said. "Both Ellen and Ivy (Renfroe) pitched really well, and our defense was outstanding. What can you say about Ellen's game? It was just tough. She threw a curve that didn't break.''

In the opener, Georgia managed only one hit through 10 innings before striking for three hits and two runs in the 11th off Ellen Renfroe (19-3), who pitched herself into a hole in the decisive frame by yielding a lead-off walk and then a single.

Paige Wilson drove a single into right field to give the Bulldogs their first lead. Wilson went to second as the throw from UT right fielder Kat Dotson cut down Brittney Hubbard at the plate.

Wilson advanced to third on a groundout before scoring on Ashley Razey's single up the middle to make it 3-1.

Dotson singled to open UT's 11th, but Georgia senior pitcher Erin Arevalo (15-3) fanned Madison Shipman before inducing Team USA star Lauren Gibson to ground into game-ending double-play.

The Lady Vols stranded six batters in the game, leaving runners in scoring position in three innings, including the sixth when UT had runners at second and third with one

out.

UT scored its only run in the fourth, when Gibson singled to open the inning and moved to second on a sacrifice bunt before scoring on Melissa Brown's double in the left-center field gap.

Ivy Renfroe (9-6) was in command throughout the second game, striking out nine while scattering six hits.

Shipman's bases-loaded bloop single in the third put the Lady Vols up 2-0, and it proved to be all the run support Ivy Renfroe needed.

"Ellen had pitched such an awesome game, and my heart went out to her,'' Ivy Renfroesaid. "I think everyone felt bad, so we knew we had to put some runs on the board in the second game.''

Georgia loaded the bases with one out in the sixth before scoring on a sacrifice fly to cut UT's lead in half, but Ivy Renfroe settled in and halted the rally.

UT returns to action at Auburn on Friday in the first game of a three-game series.

Lady Vols sister act rounding into form

By Graham HaysESPN.com

It's no surprise that Ellen Renfroe was in the circle when Tennessee handed Alabama its first loss of the season, knocking the Crimson Tide from the ranks of the unbeaten and the No. 1 ranking with a 5-2 win on the road last Wednesday. After adding to her totals in her team's subsequent five wins against Mississippi State and Furman, Renfroe is 18-1 with a 0.92 ERA and 183 strikeouts in 136.2 innings and perhaps the early front-runner for top SEC pitching honors.

The surprise is that when it comes to Tennessee's long-term prospects this season, Ellen's win might have been just the second most important result a Renfroe earned that night in Tuscaloosa.

Though Tennessee dropped the doubleheader opener in heartbreaking fashion, losing 3-2 in 11 innings, it got the kind of pitching performance it had been waiting on from junior Ivy Renfroe, Ellen's older sister. The sisters split starts essentially equally last season, but Ivy entered the Alabama twin bill with an ERA on the wrong side of 3.00.

She went the distance in the extra-inning loss, striking out 14 and allowing just five hits. And what looked like a tactical gambit by the Lady Vols, saving Ellen for the second game to avoid throwing her against Alabama ace Jackie Traina, instead turned into one of the season's most memorable games.

Ivy followed that performance with a five-hit shutout against Mississippi State over the weekend and a one-hit shutout against Furman on Tuesday. She ran into some trouble in another outing against Mississippi State, but the overall impression was of a pitcher who might have turned a corner. About three weeks ago, her ERA languishing and her record hovering around .500, Ivy started working not just with pitching coach Marty McDaniel on the physical side of things in the circle, but more closely with co-coach Karen Weekly on the mental side of things.

"Ivy pitched us into the World Series in 2010," Tennessee co-coach Ralph Weekly said after the Alabama series. "And Marty is a very good technical pitching coach, but Karen calls the pitches and she's more of a mental pitching coach. So we put Ivy, with Marty's approval, Marty and Karen have worked with her every day. … With her, it's more of a mental thing, knowing how good she can be. Because she can be really good. So I think that's started to take hold. We just kind of really combined the mental part of pitching with the physical part of pitching, and I think this is going to be a permanent improvement.

"I know she's going to have tough games like any other pitcher, but I think we're on the right track."

Seeing a chance to steal the first game against the Crimson Tide, the Lady Vols could have turned to Ellen and taken their chances in the second game. But Weekly had one message for Ivy as the game reached what proved to be its midpoint but which would normally have been its final innings. The game was going to be Ivy's to win or lose because the Lady Vols will need both sisters if they want to make a run at an SEC title or a return to the World Series.

"I said it's more important for us for you to finish this game. Win or lose, it's important for you to finish this game, not to pull you out and put Ellen in," Weekly recalled telling Ivy. "That's what we did. And we did lose the game, but I think we gained more through that loss."

A tricky run of conference play that begins with this weekend's series against Kentucky will reveal more about the extent of those gains.

As Traina goes, so will the Tide

By Graham HaysESPN.com

Alabama has done everything a program can do in softball, right up to the moment when it all falls apart in Oklahoma City.

So it's more than a little intriguing to see Jackie Traina making herself so at home in the moment.

Alabama's sophomore pitching ace was at it again Tuesday. Traina pitched both ends of a doubleheader against in-state rival Auburn, coming away with 18 strikeouts and just five hits allowed in wins that improved the Tide to 32-1 this season and 9-1 in SEC play. That wrapped up a stretch of 15 games in 19 days that included midweek doubleheaders against Tennessee and Auburn and a trip to Oregon.

Ellen Renfroe fires no-hitter despite missing best pitch By Mike Griffith

Tuesday, March 27, 2012

Ellen Renfroe's orange headband sparkled as it would any other night in the Lee Stadium lights, and her light blue bow bounced routinely with the release of each 65 mph pitch.

But the sophomore couldn't get her baffling knuckle-drop ball — her go-to pitch — to find its spots in the second game of the Lady Vols' doubleheader against Furman.

Renfroe (18-1) admitted she was as surprised as anyone that she threw the first no-hitter of her decorated career on Tuesday.

Renfroe added to her nation-leading number of shutouts (13) as ninth-ranked Tennessee (25-7) took an 8-0, six-inning decision in the nightcap over the Paladins (12-20) after scoring a 1-0 victory in the opener.

Ellen's older sister, fire-balling junior Ivy Renfroe (7-6), came within one out of producing a no-hitter in the opener before Furman's Lauren Collier singled with two outs in the seventh.

UT co-head coach Ralph Weekly could only shake his head at the Renfroe sisters'performances in the wake of an exhausting road trip that saw the Lady Vols play 12 games in 15 days.

"That was a tough no-hitter for Ellen, too; I've never seen her struggle like that,'' Weekly said. "You could see it in her face in the first inning when a couple of her pitches weren't working.

"I'll tell you, it's not an excuse, but I think they were all tired.''

There were other clues in the form of four walks.

Ivy Renfroe was in fact slightly more impressive when one considers she threw six no-hit innings with only one walk before surrendering a walk and a hit in the seventh.

UT's offense, however, didn't lend the elder Renfroe as much support, scoring just one

run in the first when Melissa Brown delivered an RBI single.

Ellen Renfroe, who ranks seventh in the nation in strikeouts and second in wins, saidfocus was key.

"Playing at this level, hitters make it a challenge every night no matter who you go up against, so I just focus on the next pitch,'' Ellen Renfroe said. "But going through the game, you see the zeros on the scoreboard. ... I tell myself as long we win, it's all fine.''

Ellen Renfroe has beaten some of the nation's best this season: then-No. 1 ArizonaState (3-0, Feb. 11), then-No. 3 Florida (1-0, March 9) and previously No. 1-Alabama (5-2, March 21). The Tide's two runs represent the only runs she allowed in her past 47 2/3 innings, covering eight appearances.

"We're a pitching team first and a defensive team second,'' Weekly said. "Don't forgetIvy pitched us to a world series (2010). We have to rest up and get our offense going.''

Brown is emerging as a top offensive threat, finishing the doubleheader 4-of-7 hitting with three RBIs. Former pitcher Cat Hosfield provided a lift with a 2-for-3 performance in the second game.

Lady Vols hand top-ranked Alabama first loss in softballBy News Sentinel staff

Originally published 10:16 p.m., March 21, 2012 Updated 12:20 a.m., March 22, 2012

Alabama’s season-long 26-game winning streak came to a screeching halt late Wednesday night, as 11th-ranked Tennessee beat the top-ranked Crimson Tide, 5-2, in the second game of an SEC softball doubleheader at Rhoads Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Ala.

UT junior Melissa Brown hit a three-run homer, and sophomore Madison Shipman added a solo shot and an RBI single to hand Alabama (26-1, 7-1 SEC) its first loss of the season after the Lady Vols (20-7, 4-4) were beaten, 3-2 in 11 innings in the opener.

Tennessee ace Ellen Renfroe (15-1), a sophomore, gave up three hits — Alabama’s lowest total this season — in the second game. She walked one and struck out seven and closed the game by setting down 11 of the final 12 batters she faced.

The Lady Vols beat out 10 total hits, exploiting Alabama’s defensive gaps against the short game with several bunt singles. Alabama also committed two errors, same as in the first game.

Brown’s homer came with sophomore Melissa Davin and senior Shelby Burchell on base and a 3-and-2 count.

Kaila Hunt hit a two-run homer in the fourth to account for all of Alabama’s scoring, but the Lady Vols added a run on Shipman’s homer in the fifth and an insurance tally on Shipman’s single in the sixth.

In the first game, Alabama’s Jackie Traina sweated through 195 pitches.

The sophomore ace had struck out 15, the last one to escape a bases-loaded situationin the top of the 11th inning.

Having already notched career highs in strikeouts and pitches thrown in a game, Traina only needed to see one more pitch.

That pitch came from UT’s Ivy Renfroe, Ellen’s older sister, with two outs in the bottom

of the 11th, and Traina jumped on it. She blasted Renfroe’s first offering 240 feet over the fence in straightaway center field to lift the Crimson Tide victory.

Traina kept Alabama alive in the first game with an epic pitching performance before her bat came into play to end the game. She gave up nine hits and worked through two costly errors to improve to 16-0, walking three batters.

Tennessee loaded the bases on two singles and an intentional walk with one out in the fourth and only managed to scratch out a 1-0 lead on Cheyanne Tarango’s infield single.

Alabama rallied for a 2-1 advantage in the fifth on an RBI double by outfielder Jennifer Fenton and a sacrifice fly by first baseman Cassie Reilly-Boccia.

The Lady Vols tied it in the sixth when second baseman Lauren Gibson singled, advanced to third on an errant throw and scored on a fielder’s choice.

That’s the way it remained until Traina’s blast, but the pitcher labored to keep it tied. She cranked up the heat, blowing the ball by Tennessee batters for three-up, three-down innings in the ninth and 10th as she seemed to gain strength the deeper she got into the game.

In the 11th, she yielded a hard-hit leadoff single to Melissa Davin. The Crimson Tide elected to intentionally walk dangerous UT leadoff hitter Raven Chavanne, and Tennessee loaded the bases with two outs on another walk. Traina then struck out Shipman on four pitches to escape the jam.

Ivy Renfroe (5-6) threw 152 pitches, allowing three runs on five hits with a career-high 14 strikeouts.

Lady Vols have a 'nice problem' with depth By Clay Seal [email protected] Clay Seal is a freelance contributor.

Tuesday, March 13, 2012

Tennessee softball co-head coach Ralph Weekly usually has his starting lineup set by the time conference play rolls around, but this year, things are a bit different.

"It seems like as soon as someone gets into the lineup on a regular basis, the other people are pushing hard " Weekly said. "Then the people on the backup list are coming out and hitting really well."

Two players that have given Weekly something to think about? Sophomore Tory Lewis and junior Whitney Hammond.

Lewis started in center field over Hammond on Tuesday in 7-0 and 9-0 (five innings) doubleheader wins against Georgia Southern (13-9) at Lee Softball Stadium.

Even though Lewis played Tuesday, Hammond started two of three games against No. 3 Florida over the weekend. Sometimes they even pinch hit for each other in the ninth spot in the lineup for UT (17-5).

"It's a nice problem to have, but we have about 14 really good ballplayers. Lewis and Hammond are two of them," Weekly said. "I've just been kind of starting one for two or three games and trying to keep an edge on with them."

Lewis has started 15 games this season, batting .333 (good for third on team). Last year she started 10 games in 43 appearances while hitting .219 in just 32 at bats.

"I'm more confident in myself this year than I was last year," Lewis said. "I started off this year just thinking, 'See the ball, hit the ball. Keep it as simple as possible.' "

Hammond's already matched her amount of starts from last year at six, hitting .227. She hit .337 her sophomore year.

The two are pretty familiar with each other. Hammond and Lewis played softball together at Girls Preparatory School in Chattanooga, winning three Division II state championships between 2007-09. They also led GPS to state volleyball titles in '07 and '08.Because of that, it changes the nature of the competition between the two.

"It's fun knowing that it's someone who you've known for years, one of your best friends, and someone who's been in your past and knows what it's like where you're coming from," Hammond said. "It's fun that they're going through the same thing youare.

"It's really not competitive. If she's up to bat, I'm telling her, 'Good job.' And she's doing the same for me. It's really not a battle."

Before they were teammates, Lewis and Hammond played each other in the youth ranks.

"At GPS we got to know each other in a different way," Hammond said, "to be friends instead of enemies."

Both want to start, both want to play. But their friendship makes it easier to handle thesituation.

"If anyone's going to take my spot, I'd rather it be my best friend," Lewis said.

Missed chances doom Lady Vols against Florida, 1-0By Clay Seal [email protected]

Sunday, March 11, 2012

Tennessee softball waited for the hero to arrive, but nobody came.

Even though there were a few opportunities for heroics, the No. 9 Lady Vols couldn't find a way around No. 3 Florida, dropping a 1-0 decision as the Gators won the weekend series Sunday at Lee Softball Stadium.

With two outs and the bases loaded in the bottom of the seventh, Kat Dotson fouled offthree straight in an eight-pitch at bat before ripping one right at the center fielder to end the game.

"If that last shot had been right or left another 10 feet, we probably would've won the game," UT co-head coach Ralph Weekly said. "It was that kind of ballgame."

Tennessee (15-5, 1-2 SEC) outhit Florida (23-2, 4-1) 6-4, but left 11 on base, including two bases-loaded situations. The Lady Vols left 24 runners stranded in the three-game series.

"When you come out and the bases are loaded, as a hitter, as a player, and I hope the fans realize this too, the pressure is on you," said Lauren Gibson, who singled to left to get on base in the seventh. "And I enjoy that, but when you go up there sometimes the percentages just aren't on your side.

"It's a challenge."

One bad pitch turned into Ellen Renfroe's first loss of the season, surrendering a home run in the third inning. Renfroe (11-1, 1.2 ERA) struck out seven and walked five in her 10th complete game. She recorded a season-high 15 strikeouts in Friday's 1-0 win.

UT left at least one runner on base in every inning but the first.

"I guess the real honest thing to do would be to give some credit to (Florida's) pitching," Weekly said. "They had great

pitching themselves. ... Somebody's got to win and somebody's got to lose."

The Lady Vols snagged a win against Florida on Friday after being swept in Gainesville, Fla. to finish the regular season last year. With that, the Gators won the SEC East crown, and eventually finished second in the Women's College World Series.

"We learned how tough it is to play in the SEC (this weekend)," Weekly said.

Added Gibson: "They're one of the best teams in the SEC. It's just going to help us get better for the rest of the teams. It allows us to see what holes we need to work on "

The Lady Vols host Georgia Southern on Tuesday at 4 p.m. for a doubleheader rescheduled from Feb. 29.

Renfroe has 15 strikeouts as Lady Vols top Florida, 1-0

By Clay Seal

[email protected]

It was a classic pitchers' duel when Tennessee and Florida met at Lee SoftballStadium.

But, in the end, it came down to Ellen Renfroe being better for Tennessee.

Behind Renfroe's season-high 15 strikeouts, the No. 9 Lady Vols beat No. 3 Florida 1-0 to start SEC play Friday night, extending its win streak to nine games in front of 1,613 fans.

"That was one of the best games I've ever seen pitched," said Weekly. "It was just two top-10 teams playing a really good game."

Renfroe (11-0, 1.12 ERA) gave up just three hits and a walk against 25 batters in her ninth complete game in 12 starts. It was the sophomore All-American's fifth win against a top-three ranked team.

Hannah Rogers (11-1, 0.42 ERA), also an All-American, gave up five hits and two walks while striking out four in the complete game for Florida (21-2, 2-1).

"It's not called fasthit or fastrun, it's called fastpitch," Weekly said. "The reason it'scalled fastpitch is if the pitchers are on, everybody else is off."

Freshman Hannah Akamine pinch-hit with two outs in the seventh inning for UT (15-3, 1-0 SEC), reaching base when Ensley Gammel bobbled the throw at first, allowing Shelby Burchell to score the walk-off run and end the Gators' 11-game win streak.

Page 139: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

"Just before the game as a team we tried to come out and say no matter what happens tonight, we're always going to make sure we have fun," Renfroe said. "We're going to make errors — that's going to happen. They're going to get hits, we're going to get hits — that's going to happen. Just continue to bounce back and play hard."

Last year, the Lady Vols traveled to Gainesville for their final regular-season series with a two-game lead over the Gators for first place in the conference standings.However, Florida swept UT, taking the SEC Eastern Division title on their way to a second-place finish in the Women's College World Series.

"After being swept by

them last year, we kind of came out with a different intensity," Renfroe said.

The Gators had won 14 of the last 16 heading into the weekend series.

Burchell got her only hit of the night with a single up the middle in the seventh. A sacrifice bunt, a groundout and a Florida throwing error later, she clinched the win for Tennessee.

"It feels great. Just to come out and play a great team like that any day to beat a great team like we did, it's always a great feeling," Burchell said. "Especially Florida. We always play them well, they always play us well, so it was really nice to come out on top tonight."

Tennessee and Florida play game two of the series today at 2 p.m.

Lady Vols softball gald to be home after going 10-3 on road By Clay Seal [email protected] Clay Seal is a freelance contributor.

Wednesday, February 29, 2012

Even though Tennessee softball co-head coach Ralph Weekly considers his team "road warriors," it's still nice to finally play in Knoxville.

The No. 9 Lady Vols will open their home schedule Thursday, kicking off the Tennessee Classic in a scrimmage against the Dutch National Team at 6 p.m. at Lee Softball Stadium.

The Dutch, who won the 2011 European championship, are in the tournament for the second year in a row. The Lady Vols beat them 6-5 last year.

The field also includes Louisville, Murray State, Boston University, and in-state opponents Memphis, East Tennessee State and Middle Tennessee State. The tournament runs today through Sunday.

"When you're playing in-state schools, everybody's gunning for you. So it'll be a tough challenge for us this weekend," Weekly said.

Tennessee has been on the road for three straight weekends, going 10-3 against what Weekly called the Lady Vols' toughest schedule ever. Highlights include handing then-No. 1 Arizona State a 3-0 loss on Feb. 11, and beating No. 17 Georgia Tech on Friday.

Weekly said UT has faced four All-American pitchers.

"Probably 80 percent of the teams we've played were in the (NCAA tournament) regionals last year," Weekly said.

"We very easily could be 13-0, or in the same vein at a couple more losses. You neverknow in the preseason, but I'm pleased so far in how we've done."

After being sidelined with a fractured thumb for two weekends of play, junior RavenChavanne came back with a fury in her first action of the season last weekend inClearwater, Fla. Chavanne was named SEC Player of the Week and the NFCA Leadoff Classic's Most Valuable Player, hitting .632 (12-of-19) with four runs, two RBIsand four stolen bases while helping the Lady Vols to a 4-1 record in the tournament.

Page 141: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

"Chavanne coming back last weekend was amazing," Weekly said. "She just seemed to step right in and do what she's always done."

Sophomore pitcher Ellen Renfroe (8-0, 1.34 ERA) was named Most Valuable Pitcher of the tournament, posting three complete-game shutouts and a save.

Kat Dotson is still on the road to full health after offseason knee surgery. She has played in nine games this season, hitting .231.

"She's able to hit away right now, but we don't have her speed that we'd like to havethat kind of dings us a little bit," said Weekly.

Ralph Weekly aiming for national title Weekly would like to finish career with NCAA title

By Austin Ward

Monday, February 6, 2012

Something is missing.

Considering the lengthy list of accomplishments already to Ralph Weekly's credit, it's perhaps a bit difficult to identify exactly where the hole on the resume might be.

The wins have piled up to the point that a fourth digit is required to count them all.

Championships? Weekly has them at levels that range from conference crowns in the competitive SEC to nationally with titles in the NAIA with Pacific Lutheran.

There's a haul of 13 international medals to wade through as well, not to mention the individual honors his players have produced or the careers that have launched under his watch.

Simply as it stands now, the Tennessee co-head coach has already done enough during his career in softball without one more game being played to earn admission into the National Fastpitch Coaches Association Hall of Fame, which officially welcomed him two months ago.

But if it all ended now, Weekly wouldn't be able to chase the one thing that has eluded him with the Lady Vols so far. And based on the passion that is clearly still evident as he prepares for a 25th season in the dugout, there is nothing slowing him down as UT pursues it starting on Thursday.

"The one thing I want to do, and it was my one goal in coming here because I'd been lucky enough to coach teams that won gold medals and all that, is I want to win a Division I national championship," Weekly said last week while looking down at Lee Stadium from the press box. "I still think we can do it here.

"I'm excited about the game, I'm excited about every year and I plan to coach as many years as I'm physically able. Absolutely, the passion is still there."

Given his love for the game, his profession and his players, in all likelihood even scratching off one more thing from his career checklist wouldn't put out a fire that was

been burning for so long.

If there were no fields, Weekly and anybody else serving with him overseas would just make do with what they had.

In Morocco, that meant throwing down four stones in the Sahara Desert.

If there wasn't a fast-pitcher available when they were able to clear out a little room in Vietnam and Weekly wasn't on patrol as an Air Force counter-intelligence agent, he'd settle for slow-pitch softball.

"There's nothing else to do when you're over there," Weekly said. "You could play flag football, but I never was good at that so I played softball.

"Most important about that, I think I learned the importance of fundamentals."

Weekly already had a good grasp on them after playing baseball through high school, though he described his work on the diamond then as average despite being "a pretty good, everyday player."

But the transition to playing softball during his time in the Air Force and then to a role coaching a handful of decorated All-Armed Forces squads helped shape hisphilosophy for the game — and set a blueprint for the disciplined style he's brought to the Lady Vols.

"I tell kids all the time when we recruit them, I'm not a coach that will tell them, 'That's OK, honey,' " Weekly said. "There are some coaches in our game today that just roll the ball out there and let the kids play. We don't do that. We have a game plan every day. Our teams are fundamentally strong.

"I mean, you're going to do it, you're going to do it right, and if you don't do it right, you're going to do it over and over and over until it's right. That's just my style of coaching."

It's not Weekly's alone, of course.

He has a list of influences in the softball world just as long as the one featuring his personal accomplishments. But the sport and his military background aren't solely responsible for that approach either.

Weekly's eyes light up, and he flashes the smile of somebody waiting to reveal a surprise.

His time as a football coach has long since passed, and by comparison to his life in softball, it was a brief career on the sideline as an assistant in charge of special teams.

Page 144: Tennessee Softball Super Regional Notes - 5/25

But Weekly can recount specific names, game plans and details of the big games he was a part of winning at Pacific Lutheran under legendary coach Frosty Westerling.

And he's also got a play called "Five Fingers" he's ready to draw up that he is certain still can't be stopped should UT football coach Derek Dooley need his help.

"I never had a chance to tell Derek," Weekly said before breaking down his fake field goal. "There is one guy left open every time.

"I swear, it might not work in Division I, but in small-college football, we scored eight or nine touchdowns on it."

Pacific Lutheran put up plenty of points on the way to a pair of national championships with Weekly on the staff, a position offered to him by Westerling based much more on his natural coaching ability and a fast friendship between the two men than footballknowledge.

Whereas Weekly already had a background with softball fundamentals from playing baseball, he didn't have much of anything to lean back on as he began working on the football field in 1986 other than what he was able to read and study about the game. But by stepping somewhat out of his comfort zone, Weekly was able to spend nearly a decade with Westerling, learning and cultivating the craft of coaching — which could then be applied anywhere.

"It was a great time, and I learned a ton," Weekly said. "It does help you. First thing is, a lot of coaches don't want to learn from other coaches. Those coaches are wrong. Coaching football, we won two national championships during that time when I was there in football, and those coaches were really good — small-college coaches, yes, but really, really good.

"I mean, I knew a little bit about special teams just basically from reading and studying, but Frosty felt I could coach."

Based on the results, that appears to have been a smart hunch.

The notion of seeing the finish line is quickly dismissed by Weekly.

Going on a quarter-century coaching softball and already in the Hall of Fame, it's safe to assume he is closer to the end of his career than the beginning.

But aside from pouring his energy into a team ranked No. 9 in the national preseason polls, there are recruiting classes put together through 2014 that have him fired up and aiming for multiple trips to the Women's College World Series.

And the players already on campus have a not-so-subtle reminder hanging outside the complex next to Lee Stadium about where their season should end, a banner

welcoming a "2012 World Series team" to work each day.

Though, like the coach, the Lady Vols are well aware of what the program still needs to accomplish as well.

"Obviously for our coaches we want them to have that and to be a part of a national championship team," senior utility player Ashley Andrews said. "But it's that way for the players too, and I think he does a really good job of sharing that with us. It's not just for him. He's very good about making clear this is a team, and we want to get there together. We want to get there just as bad as he does.

"That passion is still there. He still wants to win just as much."

Few coaches have done it as often as Weekly.

Now he's just looking for one victory in particular.
