Less than a week after barely holding off the East Tennessee State Buccaneers in their season-opener, the Tennessee Lady Vols dominated the team that had just been to back to back national title games in their house. It was a huge win for Kellie Harper’s first team.
UT moved to 3-0 with a 74-63 victory over the Irish, who fell to 2-1 despite coming in ranked No. 16 in the AP Poll and No. 14 in the Coaches Poll. They won two of their three games on the road, including that close win over the ETSU Bucs.
