KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — After leading by as many as 23 points, Tennessee had to fend off a hard-charging Chattanooga team as the #4 Lady Vols posted a 59-57 win on Monday night at Thompson-Boling Arena. After trailing by double-figures for most of the night, the Mocs used a late 22-4 run to cut their deficit to two points three times in the fourth quarter. But Tennessee was able to hold on thanks to Diamond DeShields' best game as a Lady Vol. The preseason All-American scored 17 points, more than doubling her output from her first three games (16) as a Lady Vol.
