The contest was an exhibition game.
Following the game, Tennessee head coach Kellie Harper recapped the Lady Vols’ performance.
“It’s great to be back out on the court, excited to be able to progress forward with this group,” Harper said. “Obviously, we saw some good things on the offensive end and I thought that we shared the ball well. I thought we were pretty efficient at times, offensively. Defensively, you just don’t want to give up the points that we gave up, and the shooting percentage defensively is not where we want it.
“I don’t want to take anything away from our opponent tonight, because Carson-Newman made some really tough shots and finished. They did a really nice job so for us, we’ll find a way to be better and find a way to improve each and every day.”
