Much has been made recently about the recruiting classes for the Tennessee Volunteers’ football and basketball teams, but the baseball team is making waves on the 2021 recruitment trail.
Before COVID-19 shut down spring athletics for schools across the country, the Vols were 15-2 and were ranked 23rd in the nation by Baseball America’s rankings. Tennessee opened up 2020 with 13 consecutive wins before a pair of losses to Wright State. The Vols’ final game came on March 10 against the ETSU Buccaneers — a game they won 17-5.
Now, as we shift our focus to what comes next, Baseball America has rewarded Tennessee once again.
