• Lady Vols romp in exhibition opener: The visiting team wore “We Back Pat” T-shirts, and the home head coach visited the opponent’s locker room after the game, but other than that it was a typical exhibition opener for Tennessee basketball with Pat Summitt on the sideline and a 105-40 win over Carson-Newman.
• Lady Vols make corrections on court: Pat Summitt and Mickie DeMoss handled practice Wednesday — Dean Lockwood was on the recruiting trail and Holly Warlick had surgery on her hand — and used the session to review the exhibition game film, clean up some defensive miscues and get some shots up in Pratt Pavilion.
• Massengale headed in right direction: After Ariel Massengale collided with Cierra Burdick in practice, both players ended up on the sideline – Massengale because her head was hurt and Burdick because she was distraught.
• Cuonzo Martin meets with media: The Vols basketball team returned to practice at Pratt Pavilion on Friday afternoon, one day after the 73-52 exhibition win over Carson-Newman
• Holly Warlick returns after surgery : Holly Warlick returned to practice Friday with her arm in a sling and five screws in her left hand after surgery, and Vicki Baugh was full go one day after her day of rest.
• Lady Vols earn an off day: The players erupted in cheers at the end of practice, not because a stretch of six consecutive days had ended, but because Kathy Harston, the director of basketball operations, reminded them to set their clocks back an hour, thus giving everyone an extra hour of sleep overnight.
• Lady Vols host Union this evening :
  When Izzy Harrison watched ABC’s 20/20 feature on Pat Summitt, one thing the coach said really stuck with her, and the already motivated freshman now has even more reason to work hard this season.
