Vanderbilt went to Knoxville and spurned a chance to be the #2 seed in the SEC Tournament. The 2-0 loss to the hated rival knocked the Commodores down to the #5 seed. It was not a bad performance, but it was one players and coaches should have walked away with some lessons learned. The Dores were without starting goalkeeper Kate Devine and target forward Peyton Cutshall. Devine has a capable, though less commanding, backup in Sara Wojdelko. Cutshall has no direct replacement due to her aerial strength and clever linkup play. Vanderbilt did not shy away from the challenge against the #21 Volunteers though.
