Kellie Harper recaps Lady Vols’ loss to Notre Dame

Kellie Harper recaps the Lady Vols’ loss to Notre Dame.

No. 14 Notre Dame (6-1) defeated No. 22 Tennessee (4-3), 74-69, in the ACC/SEC Challenge Tuesday at Food City Center.

Tennessee head coach Kellie Harper met with media after the game.

“Obviously, this is a tough one,”Harper said. “I think everyone here in our locker room feels like we should have walked out with a win, so it’s a hard pill to swallow when you don’t get it. Obviously, the other team had a lot to do with that, they did a great job of grabbing the momentum and holding onto it and finishing the game out strong. They had great balance, and great toughness from the game. Obviously, we are disappointed, and hopefully, we will learn from it.”
