Pas de circuit pour Robin Villeneuve aujourd’hui… mais trois points produits!

View attachment 623613

Mirabel, Québec, le 27 février 2024 - L'entraîneur-chef de l'équipe de baseball de l'Université du Tennessee en est probablement arrivé à la conclusion que Robin Villeneuve devait être de l'alignement de son équipe… jour après jour.

Aujourd'hui, le baseballeur québécois agissait comme frappeur désigné. Il a frappé deux coups sûrs, un simple et un double, a compté un point… et en a produit trois, dont le point produit gagnant!

Dès la première manche, le Gatinois a frappé un simple… qui a poussé deux de ses coéquipiers à la plaque, deux points produits qui donnaient les devants 2-0 à son équipe sur leurs adversaires du jour, les représentants de l'Université High Point de la Caroline du Nord.

Puis, en sixième manche, le champion frappeur de circuits de la NJCAA en 2023… a claqué un double. Encore là, sa frappe a permis à un des siens de marquer, ce qui portait la marque à 4-2 pour sa formation.

Deux frappeurs plus tard, le jeune homme de 20 ans s'amenait au marbre à son tour.

Au final, la troupe du Tennessee a remporté un gain de 7-4.

The head coach of the University of Tennessee baseball team probably came to the conclusion that Robin Villeneuve had to be in the lineup of his team... day after day.

Today, the Quebec baseballer acted as a designated batter. He hit two hits, a single and a double, counted one point... and produced three, including the winning point!

From the first round, the Gatinois hit a single... which pushed two of his teammates to the plate, two points produced that gave his team the lead 2-0 over their opponents of the day, the representatives of the High Point University of North Carolina.

Then, in the sixth round, the NJCAA circuit batter champion in 2023... slammed a double. Again, his shot allowed one of his people to score, which brought the mark to 4-2 for his formation.

Two batters later, the 20-year-old man took his turn to marble.

In the end, the Tennessee troupe won a win of 7-4.

SERIES HISTORY​

Overall: Tennessee leads, 6-1
in Knoxville: Tennessee leads, 6-1
in Bowling Green: N/A
at Neutral Sites: N/A
Last Meeting: W, 5-2 in 8 inn. (Feb. 23, 2003, in Knoxville)

UT swept a doubleheader the last time the two programs met back in 2003. The Vols' only loss to the Falcons was a 15-11 setback in the series finale of a weekend series on Feb. 17, 2002.

NOTABLE​

Tennessee Under Tony V
During head coach Tony Vitello's tenure (2018-pres.), Tennessee has emerged into a national power with four straight NCAA regional appearances, three consecutive super regionals and two trips to Omaha. UT is the only SEC program and one of just four teams nationally (Stanford, Texas & Virginia) to have appeared in the Men's College World Series in two of the last three seasons (2021 & 2023).

Tennessee's 159 victories since the start of the 2021 season are the most of any team in the country, 13 wins more than the second place Texas, which has 146 in that same span. The Vols are the only team in the country to record multiple seasons of 50 or more wins in the last three years.

Canada's Finest
Quebec native Robin Villeneuve burst onto the scene with some impressive showings at the plate last week and has emerged as yet another weapon for Tennessee's loaded lineup. The junior slugger hit his first two homers at the Division I level last week after leading the junior college ranks with 28 long balls last season at Weatherford College in Texas. Villeneuve's tape-measure blast in Saturday's victory over UAlbany traveled an estimated 448 feet according to Trackman, which is UT's longest home run this season.

Villeneuve continued his hot hitting with two more hits and three more RBIs in Tuesday's midweek win over High Point. Entering this weekend, Villeneuve leads the team with a .563 batting average, 1.063 slugging percentage, .696 on-base percentage and a 1.750 OPS while ranking 12th nationally in batting average and third in on-base percentage.

Tears on a Tear
Redshirt sophomore outfielder Kavares Tears has been red-hot to open the 2024 season, batting .462 with 11 RBIs while leading the team with four home runs and 15 runs scored. The Lewisburg, Tennessee, native, posted career highs with three hits and three runs in Tuesday's midweek victory over High Point.

Non-Conference Dominance
Tennessee has been extremely successful against non-conference opponents since the start of the 2019 season, posting a 128-24 record in that span. The Vols have not lost a regular-season non-conference weekend series since 2020 (Wright State) and have swept 12 of their 14 regular-season non-conference weekend series since the start of the 2020 campaign. Under Vitello, Tennessee is also an impressive 67-10 overall in midweek games.

OPPONENT SCOUT​

Bowling Green Falcons
  • Head Coach: Kyle Hallock (4th season)
  • 2023 Record: 20-30 (13-17 MAC)
  • 2023 Postseason: N/A
  • 2024 Mid-American Conference Preseason Poll: 8th
  • Players to Watch:
    - RHP/OF DJ Newman: Two-way player than was named to the All-MAC Team as well as the league's Freshman Pitcher of the Year in 2023. Leads team with a .423 batting average.
    - OF Nathan Archer: Led team with nine homers in 2023 and has a team-high 10 RBIs this season.
    - UTL Leighton Banjoff: Batting .375 and is tied for team lead with two home runs.

ON DECK​

The Vols will play two midweek games next week, starting with Tuesday's matchup against Kansas State at 6 p.m. UT will then host Southern Indiana on Wednesday night before welcoming Illinois to Knoxville over the weekend.
