Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1107154.html Fri, 16 Sep 2011 06:15:00 GMT 0 7 Tennessee tennessee After a week that rocked Lady Vol Nation, the following week restored a sense of normalcy to the program as Coach Pat Summitt returned to the court, and individual workouts got underway as usual for the Tennessee women’s basketball program. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1101072.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1101072.html Wed, 31 Aug 2011 10:10:00 GMT 0 7 Tennessee tennessee The Women’s Pilot Rocky Top League has been a launch contest this summer with three balls lofted from well behind the arc, led by the spectacular shots of Shekinna Stricklen, who with the help of the long ball from teammates Taber Spani and Tyler Powers, has her FCA team undefeated with a rematch likely looming with DeRoyal. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1084558.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1084558.html Wed, 06 Jul 2011 07:07:00 GMT 0 7 Tennessee tennessee The Women’s Pilot Rocky Top League got a little later start this summer and has been compressed into two weeks, but the fans turned out Monday evening at Christian Academy of Knoxville and were treated to three games, including the first chance to see incoming Lady Vol Isabelle Harrison. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1082922.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1082922.html Tue, 28 Jun 2011 07:39:00 GMT 0 7 Tennessee tennessee Alyssia Brewer had one stipulation before an interview following Monday’s Selection Show – the only opponent in Tennessee’s bracket that she would discuss would be Stetson. It was a familiar refrain from the junior class, which has adopted the one-game-at-a-time mantra of its championship predecessors. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1056088.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1056088.html Tue, 15 Mar 2011 08:25:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee Tennessee continued its trend of being a challenging team to scout with the latest surprise contribution being a career-high 22 points from Alicia Manning – including three treys after she had not attempted a single one in SEC play prior to Thursday – to lead all scorers in the 82-60 win over South Carolina, clinching at least a share of the conference crown. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1049256.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1049256.html Fri, 18 Feb 2011 15:47:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee The esteemed French chemist Louis Pasteur – perhaps most well-known for developing the process of pasteurization that bears his name – said “chance favors the prepared mind.” That could become a motto for the Lady Vol reserve players – who often are such in name only – as they have been called upon this season to play major roles with Lauren Avant and Alyssia Brewer being the latest examples. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1048969.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1048969.html Thu, 17 Feb 2011 09:03:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee Pat Summitt had plenty of good news to start the week – former Lady Vol Tamika Catchings had time to practice Monday with the team before her flight home and Jasmine Jones, a junior in high school, wants to play for Tennessee. Also, Angie Bjorklund was out of her protective boot and although not back on the court that’s a step closer for the shooting guard. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1048428.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1048428.html Tue, 15 Feb 2011 10:21:00 GMT 0 7 Tennessee tennessee Alyssia Brewer debated whether or not to sit out for the year, came to the conclusion that she could help the team this season and decided to go ahead and resume play in the SEC and postseason. She smiled and said she was baffled about her missed shots in games, and she expected that to change soon but in the meantime she would focus on defense and boards. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1044513.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1044513.html Tue, 01 Feb 2011 04:49:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee The monster truck show was setting up Friday in the arena. The monster noise was likely to emanate next door from Pratt Pavilion after a lackluster SEC game, but Pat Summitt and her staff – after a rather pointed film session – took the court, went to work and let the players do the talking, too. Next up is Auburn on the road and Tennessee will have Alyssia Brewer on board for this trip. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1041607.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1041607.html Sat, 22 Jan 2011 08:09:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee TEMPLE, Texas - The Lady Vols had all 13 players on the court for Monday’s practice the day before the matchup with Baylor but just how much the bigs can play remains very much in question. Alyssia Brewer, who just returned from Achilles tendon surgery, feels a sense of urgency right now to give her team whatever she can, even in limited minutes. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1031032.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1031032.html Tue, 14 Dec 2010 06:42:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee For the first time this season Tennessee had its entire roster of 13 players available at practice as Alyssia Brewer returned to the court Monday evening after having surgery last September. The posts are still getting healthy – all three bigs have had major operations – but the paint definitely contained bigger players, and Brewer was welcomed back by her teammates. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1029014.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1029014.html Tue, 07 Dec 2010 06:34:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee The letters of intent from Tennessee’s three 2011 recruits have been certified, Alyssia Brewer returned to the court on a limited basis for the first time in more than two months, Sydney Smallbone earned a spot among thousands of applicants for a logistics job upon graduation, and the Lady Vols had an intense practice session in a busy Friday for Lady Vol news. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1023767.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1023767.html Sat, 20 Nov 2010 07:04:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee The Lady Vols took advantage of a new rule allowing an earlier start to official practice and after four consecutive sessions will now take off four days for the fall break. The initial sessions were noteworthy because of the advanced level of practice plans as Tennessee put in new offenses and defenses, worked in shooting drills and free throws and often got finished in under two hours. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1009572.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1009572.html Thu, 07 Oct 2010 04:11:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee Lady Vol junior forward Alyssia Brewer had surgery Friday to repair a tear to her Achilles tendon that was injured in an off-the-court incident when a candle base broke in her off-campus apartment. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1001124.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/1001124.html Fri, 10 Sep 2010 21:07:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee Alyssia Brewer led Team Adidas to the championship Friday in the inaugural Women’s Pilot Rocky Top League while several of her teammates provided support from the stands, including post players Vicki Baugh and Kelley Cain. Habibi Andre, the coordinator for the summer league, was pleased with the first-time event and pledged to return next year. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/981708.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/981708.html Sat, 03 Jul 2010 05:54:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee Cait McMahan used to cry herself to sleep because she had to give up playing basketball, but the smile on her face Tuesday showed how far she had come from those dark nights as she electrified a larger-than-usual crowd at Catholic High School during her one-game appearance in the Women’s Pilot Rocky Top League. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/981040.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/981040.html Wed, 30 Jun 2010 05:58:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee Former Lady Vol Courtney McDaniel took home the nightly MVP award on Tuesday after a triple double, but it was her defense and willingness to run the floor that really stood out in the Women’s Pilot Rocky Top League. She has a very good reason to hustle – her players are in the stands watching their coach. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/979440.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/979440.html Wed, 23 Jun 2010 06:35:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee The products of Webb represented their school well on the second night of the Women’s Pilot Rocky Top League as Faith Dupree collected the MVP hardware after pouring in 30 points, Glory Johnson tallied 16, mostly from working inside, and Marjorie Butler got the steal and hit a driving layup as the clock expired to keep Team Hustle undefeated. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/978316.html 2047 Maria M. Cornelius http://tennessee.scout.com/2/978316.html Fri, 18 Jun 2010 07:37:00 GMT 1 7 Tennessee tennessee It was a national title game Pat Summitt could appreciate – lots of defense. Alyssia Brewer couldn’t help but wonder what could have been had the Lady Vols taken care of business in Memphis. Tennessee took advantage of some court time Wednesday with the coaches and spent an hour in an up-tempo scrimmage-type session. http://tennessee.scout.com/2/960567.html 2047 Maria M.
