Lady Vols Soccer ⚽️ Ole Miss @ #23 Tennessee 7PM Thursday 9/19 Regal Stadium (Admission is free)

How did you feel about the utilization after the match?
Hard to say since we were much better than UNC Asheville, but I'm excited about our midfield and front line. Lots of talent, and they seem to be connecting well! I worry about our defense though with Michel red shirting this year, but I'm choosing to be optimistic about this season. Jaida in particular looked great, I thought. I forgot what an excellent passer she is.
