Tennessee Game Notes: vs. Chattanooga, Nov. 15, 2010, Game #2 - 2-0
• Today's starters: freshman Meighan Simmons, senior Angie Bjorklund, redshirt junior Kelley Cain, junior Glory Johnson, junior Shekinna Stricklen.
• The Lady Vols broke the UT single-game records for three-pointers made (15) and attempted (33).
• Tennessee reached the century club for first time since scoring 102 against Old Dominion on Dec. 30, 2009. UT's 103 points are its most since defeating Florida 103-73 on Feb. 11, 2001 in Gainesville.
• The last time UTC gave up 100 points came against UT on Nov. 12, 2006 (102-72) in Knoxville.
• UT extended its home winning streak to 20 games - the eighth longest in Tennessee history.
• The Lady Vols won their ninth straight home opener.
• Meighan Simmons became the 60th freshman ever to start a game for the Lady Vols.
• The Lady Vols jumped out to a 10-0 lead before two minutes even elapsed in the game forcing UTC head coach Wes Moore to call at timeout at 18:05. The Lady Vols increased the lead to 19-0 before UTC made its first shot at 14:22. The Lady Mocs missed their first seven attempts and had seven turnovers before their first score.
• Tennessee assisted on its first 12 baskets. UT tallied more assists (12) in the game's first 10:34 than it did versus Louisville on Friday (11). UT finished with 25 assists.
• Simmons scored 11 of Tennessee's first 19 points, including three treys in the first 6:21 of the contest.
• Tennessee led by 35 (51-16) at halftime, but Tennessee would've need to lead by three more points to crack the all-time top 10 for largest halftime lead in Lady Vol history. The record is 55 set against Puerto Rico Mayaguez on Nov. 29, 2002.
• Tennessee started 1-for-6 from the free throw line and finished 6-of-14 (42.9%).
• Five consecutive Cain points followed by eight straight Simmons' points started a 17-0 UT run, making a 55-23 lead 72-23 over a four-minute, 18-second span (17:38-13:20) in the second half.
