HOOPS CENTRAL: Lady Vols vs. Wright State
Women's BasketballDecember 09, 2022
Tennessee (5-5) v Wright State (1-7; 0-2 Horizon League)

The contest marks the Lady Vols' fifth of a six-game home stand and a stretch of nine out of 11 on The Summitt between Nov. 25 and Jan. 5. Coach Kellie Harper's squad enters having won three of its last four contests, taking down Chattanooga by a 69-39 count Tuesday evening on the UT campus.

Tennessee played that game without two starters and a key reserve, as senior forward Rickea Jackson remained out due to coach's decision, graduate forward Jasmine Franklin was inactive for her second game while in concussion protocol and senior center Tamari Key missed the first game ever in her career for what was later announced as the discovery of blood clots in her lungs after additional testing on Tuesday. She has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2022-23 campaign.

Wright State arrives on Rocky Top as part of a two-game road swing. The Raiders were in Huntington, W.Va., on Friday night, where they suffered a 72-47 defeat at the hands of the Marshall Thundering Herd. WSU enters Sunday's tilt with an 0-5 record in road games this season.

This will mark the first-ever meeting between these schools in women's basketball.

To include spelling of names? We’ve had issues as a forum lately… /spelling nazi’d

Lol! Funny you say that. I am a turrible speller and certainly can't remember 14 first name spell details.

I need a cheat sheet of nicknames, or something.

This is a good game to test new lineups which we will obviously need to do.

Stanford looms but hopefully we handle the next two with relative ease

This game is more of a fun game for our players which they need at this time. (Sorry, don’t mean to show any disrespect to the Wright State team).
As a fan though it makes it hard to see if we have really improved (assuming it is an easy victory over a team that appears to be very overmatched).

rj day to day Flanklin can go

Nice...thanks mudcat.

Beat we see the same five start today. Let me see how the ole brain is a spelling today:

PG - Powell
SG - Horston
SF - Darby
PF - Sara (can't spell her last name)
C - Karo (can't spell either of her names)

I like that lineup because we can give Horston the ball and the other four can play on offensive end without the ball. Plus, all five of them can shoot the 3-ball.

When Jill, Franklin, Su, come off the bench, it gives us an entirely different look across the baseline in the 3,4, and 5 positions. We have a lot of bodies to throw at them.
