Spencer’s agent delivered the news via a cohort’s phone, and she took the coast-to-coast trade in stride. Spencer is also happy to be reunited with point guard Loree Moore – another Tennessee player in the WNBA – who took the newcomer under her wing after she arrived. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/866757.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/866757.html Fri, 22 May 2009 03:17:00 GMT 0 7 Tennessee tennessee WNBA training camps open Sunday so the rookies spent three days in Chicago learning what they need to know to adjust to pro basketball. Former Lady Vol Sidney Spencer talked to the assembled newcomers – all five Tennessee draftees were present – and Alexis Hornbuckle said they enjoyed the last get-together before they scatter to their new teams. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/747970.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/747970.html Sun, 20 Apr 2008 06:55:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee Sidney Spencer helped Tennessee win a national title, but that didn’t impress the WNBA scouts – the 6-3 three-point specialist in college fell to 25th overall in the WNBA draft, behind Tyresa Smith of Delaware, Megan Veogel of South Dakota State and Stephanie Raymond of Northern Illinois. http://wbb.scout.com/2/717805.html 2047 Bob Corwin http://wbb.scout.com/2/717805.html Mon, 07 Jan 2008 18:37:00 GMT 1 427 Women's Hoops wbb CLEVELAND, Ohio – All game long Nicky Anosike kept repeating to herself something Coach Pat Summitt had told her – rebounding wins championships. She couldn’t get the words out of her head. On Tuesday Anosike played as if every rebound belonged to her – she had a career high 16 – and the 2007 national title now belongs to the Lady Vols. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/632550.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/632550.html Wed, 04 Apr 2007 08:56:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee CLEVELAND, Ohio – Tennessee players had trouble sleeping after their scintillating win over North Carolina. Pat Summitt took their cell phones away to make sure they got a few quiet hours before reporting back to the arena for media interviews and practice Monday, but the Lady Vols weren’t worried about not being rested for tonight's game. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/632234.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/632234.html Tue, 03 Apr 2007 09:29:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee CLEVELAND, Ohio – Pat Summitt has preached for three decades that defense and rebounding can win basketball games when the shots aren’t falling. The Lady Vols set a Final Four semifinal record for lowest-shooting percentage but prevailed over North Carolina, 56-50, on Sunday night and earned the right to play for the program’s seventh national championship. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/631909.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/631909.html Mon, 02 Apr 2007 11:30:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee CLEVELAND, Ohio – The day began with Candace Parker winning the most prestigious player of the year award. It ended with three of Tennessee's signees playing in an all-star game. In between for the Lady Vols were interviews, practice and an autograph session that necessitated extra security to be summoned Saturday. Amid all the hoopla Tennessee still had to get ready to play. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/631633.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/631633.html Sun, 01 Apr 2007 10:31:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee DAYTON, Ohio – Nobody can stop us but us. Confidence matters. Control the boards. Protect the ball. Ole Miss and Tennessee held separate press conferences Monday, but it wasn’t really necessary. Reflecting the familiarity between the two SEC programs and what’s at stake the players essentially said the same thing: Whoever wants it the most will make it to the Final Four. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/630237.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/630237.html Tue, 27 Mar 2007 09:51:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee The Dayton Region may have lost some of its high seeds but Tennessee forward Candace Parker pointed out the obvious to anyone thinking otherwise: “It’s still the region of doom. Those teams beat great teams.” Good point. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/629151.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/629151.html Fri, 23 Mar 2007 06:03:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee PITTSBURGH, Pa. – Sidney Spencer had her knees on ice, pizza in her hand and a plastic fork digging into a salad as she sat in the locker room after Tennessee’s 68-54 win over Pitt. It’s no wonder she was hungry. The forward spent Tuesday evening in the paint guarding the Panthers’ biggest offensive threat inside. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/628521.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/628521.html Wed, 21 Mar 2007 06:55:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee PITTSBURGH, Pa. – Tennessee is trying to keep a rather staggering statistic intact – 25 NCAA tournaments, 25 Sweet 16 appearances. Standing in the way are the Pitt Panthers, who will be playing on their home court. Players on both teams said they are not taking on or toting all that tradition. The only thing that really matters right now is who takes the floor tonight. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/628226.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/628226.html Tue, 20 Mar 2007 07:44:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee PITTSBURGH, Pa. – Halls cough drops. Men’s chests. Cheerleading skirts. Reunions and reminiscing. Those were just some of the topics Saturday as teams took turns on the court and holding court with the media. There was plenty of basketball talk, too, and two poignant moments when Tennessee’s Candace Parker talked about Maggie Dixon and Pitt’s Angus Berenato talked about Kay Yow. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/627697.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/627697.html Sun, 18 Mar 2007 07:12:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee Candace Parker was held out of practice Wednesday as a precaution to treat some minor swelling in her left knee. The increased level of intensity and pace of practice in recent days necessitated that she get a day of rest, and she is expected to practice Thursday. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/626955.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/626955.html Thu, 15 Mar 2007 03:21:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee It was the night of non-reactions. A number one seed? Expected. The toughest overall bracket of the tournament? Also expected. The Lady Vols basketball team and staff gathered at Pat Summitt’s house on Monday evening to watch the unveiling of the 64-team NCAA Tournament. As their stacked regional unfolded the players and staff watched with curiosity. Afterwards, their attitude was let’s play. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/626426.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/626426.html Tue, 13 Mar 2007 08:37:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee The Lady Vol basketball team will return to practice Wednesday afternoon to begin preparations for NCAA postseason play. Tennessee took three days off after losing in the semifinals of the SEC tourney, but before the players left Duluth, they expressed relief for the chance to keep the season going and said their work begins in Knoxville. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/624632.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/624632.html Wed, 07 Mar 2007 05:36:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee DULUTH, Ga. – The player that gave the most effort Saturday in Tennessee’s SEC semifinal loss to LSU said afterwards that the only acceptable response was to “get back in the gym and work that much harder.” Alexis Hornbuckle, who shattered her career high by scoring 29 points, left the SEC Tournament knowing she had given it her best shot. The players who didn’t shouldered the blame for the loss. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/623670.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/623670.html Sun, 04 Mar 2007 11:11:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee DULUTH, Ga. – Alexis Hornbuckle and Sidney Spencer both scored career highs in an SEC Tournament game – and Spencer entered the 1,000-point club – as Tennessee opened up defense of its title with an 81-63 win over South Carolina on Friday. The Lady Vols, who celebrated in the locker room with a baseball bat and a piñata, will meet LSU in Saturday’s semifinal. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/623411.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/623411.html Sat, 03 Mar 2007 09:21:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee DULUTH, Ga. – The Lady Vols roll into Duluth as both the defending SEC Tournament champions and owners of the regular season title. They will now try to do something that’s difficult to do in the SEC – win both in the same season. The last time Tennessee collected two SEC trophies was in 2000, and even that team didn’t go undefeated in the regular season. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/623106.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/623106.html Fri, 02 Mar 2007 07:48:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee Coach Pat Summitt has changed her starting lineup only twice this season – once so a player could take a test and another time because a player was ill. She’ll do it a third time Sunday when Tennessee takes the floor against Vanderbilt in the regular season finale. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/621611.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/621611.html Sun, 25 Feb 2007 06:32:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee Tennessee’s 1987 NCAA title team was honored before Sunday’s game and then the Lady Vols went out and played like they had championship thoughts in mind by routing Kentucky, 84-62, and getting the 10th SEC win to remain undefeated in conference play. Candace Parker was unstoppable and ended up with more points, 31, than minutes played. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/618272.html 2047 Maria M.
