Millenial volunteering rises at UT

Maria Amalla

Contributor If stereotypes held any weight, millennials could be considered the least liked generation in America.

According to a 2015 Pew Research Center Survey, millennials are more likely to describe themselves as self-absorbed, greedy or wasteful in comparison to other generational brackets.

These associations have been used as evidence for millennials’ supposed lack of community involvement, but not all millennials settle for stereotypes when it comes to volunteering.

Amy Perkins, director of volunteering services at the University of Tennessee Medical

Center, described a large presence of over 60 millennial volunteers and counting.

“Right now I have 63 active independent (millennial) volunteers,” Perkins said. “I also have ... 44 college-aged applicants eager to be volunteers.”

Perkins indicated there is often such a high demand for volunteering that UT Medical Center is unable to take all millennial volunteers.

Perkins could not attest to this for previous years but acknowledged that any prior low volunteer volumes might have been an administrative issue.

“I’ve been in my position for one year. When I started there were 14 volunteers. Now, a year later, there are 68 active volunteers,” Perkins said.

Perkins had a positive approach to millen-

nials’ commitment to UT Medical Center volunteering.

“I think they have a really good understanding that their dedication is appreciated,” Perkins said. “But, for the most part, I think they really want to be here, and they take the commitment seriously.”

Riece Stone, millennial and sophomore in deaf education, said that she did not necessarily think of herself as the “typical millennial,” but still recognized the negative perception.

“Nobody ever says anything positive about us,” Stone said. “Nobody likes us.”

Hesham Annamer, sophomore in chemical engineering, also agreed that the stereotypes are not representative of his generation.

“Millennials are more politically active, more open minded and more accepting,” Annamer said.

Wild game dinner offers unsual food choices Jake Wade

Activist works to pursue better wages Brendan Hayes Contributor

Throughout American history, events have changed the culture, economy, government and, on an even more personal level, people’s lives.

The market crash in 2008 is one of those events. For some, the market crash of 2008 changed everything, even the way they viewed the world. For Jordan Welsh, fifth-year senior in history, it changed his politics. “(The crisis) sent people with well paying jobs to living pay check to pay check,” Welsh said.

Becoming dissatisfied with capitalism in America, he began studying the concepts of socialism. Welsh now identifies as a socialist, and is an avid pursuer of a better allocation of resources politically, economically and ecologically.

Being a part of the lower-middle class during the crisis, he observed that those without mass wealth suffered the most.

Welsh is an outspoken advocate and member of the Progressive Student Alliance (PSA), a broad organization with a diverse student membership. He has served many positions within the organization, ranging from treasurer to liaison for the United Campus Workers

ACTIVISTS on ROCKY TOP Union (UCW).

Kaitlin Macklin, a UT graduate, recollects on the times that she corroborated along side of Welsh within the PSA. Macklin remembers how Welsh’s “can do” work ethic and well rooted beliefs benefited PSA and “how passionate he was about making sure power and privilege play an equal role in everyone’s life.”

PSA, along with the UCW, have recently started a movement called “Tennessee is not for Sale,” which has worked to prevent the passing of Gov. Haslam’s proposal to outsource facilities services on campus for the past six months.

In 2013, the two organizations successfully tackled a living-wage campaign on campus.

They were able to raise the minimum wage for all employees — excluding student employees — who receive a check from the University of Tennessee, increasing the minimum from $8.50 to $9.50 an hour.

This Saturday, the University of Tennessee Student Chapter of the Wildlife and Fisheries Society will be hosting their annual wildlife game dinner.

Now the biggest fundraiser for the UT Wildlife and Fisheries Society, the dinner was originally the idea of Mike Pelton, Emeritus Professor of Wildlife Science, whose research ranges from ecology to bears.

The menu includes a variety of unusual meat choices, including moose, elk, beaver, raccoon, whitetail deer, quail, dove, duck, bass, bluegill, catfish and more.

With over 500 people attending last year’s event, Ethan Newman, the president of the UT Student Chapter of the Wildlife and Fisheries Society, explained that some of the biggest challenges in organizing the event are simply finding enough food to serve, as well as procuring a team to cook, smoke and prepare the feast.

The money raised for the event all goes back to the Society, which allows UT students to attend the Southern Forestry Conclave and any other costly professional development shops and meetings.

Cristopher Graves, a lecturer and certified wildlife biologist in the Department of Forestry, Wildlife and Fisheries, said the event serves as prime experience for those students willing to help organize the feast. “(The event) empowers the students along with allowing the students to develop leadership skills,” Graves said.

For those new to out-of-the-ordinary foods, Graves suggests trying bobcat, which he describes as “surprisingly tasty.” He also suggests to try beaver, which to him tastes like fine beef.

The dinner will also feature a silent and live auction, along with a prize drawing for a compound bow worth over $500.

The wildlife dinner will be at the Brehm Animal Science Arena at 5:30 p.m. The event is $10 at the door but a $5 discount is given if a food dish is brought.

Couple united by banjo comes to Bijou Sam Kennedy

Staff Writer After touring separately for most of their careers, two of the most well-known professional banjo players in the industry, Abigail Washburn and Béla Fleck, are now touring together and coming to Knoxville as an AllAmerican banjo-playing duo.

Washburn is an American banjo player and singer. For most of her career, Washburn typically performed and recorded music as a soloist, occasionally playing with a few old-time bands, including Uncle Earl and Sparrow Quartet.

However, before her music career, Washburn was headed in a totally different direction.

As a student at Colorado College, Washburn was the school’s first East Asian Studies major.

She learned Chinese during the summers at Middlebury College, Vermont and moved to China to fulfill her dream of becoming a lawyer.

During her time in China, she made a stop at the Barre Center for Buddhist Studies and spent five days there meditating. After her “eyeopening” experience, she decided to move to Nashville, Tennessee to pursue a musical career.

Fleck met Washburn at the start of her career while he was performing in Nashville.

He produced Washburn’s first solo album, and the two later ended up getting married. In May 2013, they had their first son. In hopes of keeping their family close together, Washburn and Fleck now travel and perform together as a banjo-playing duo.

“There’s just all these ways we know each other,” Washburn said. “In the music we can

anticipate things beautifully because of each other’s intense knowledge and comfort with the other person.”

Fleck’s journey in music began much earlier than Washburn’s. Growing up in New York City, he received his first banjo as a gift from his grandfather when he was 15; he later enrolled in New York City’s High School of Music and Art where he studied the French horn.

After high school, Fleck joined numerous bands, such as Tasty Licks, Spectrum, New Grass Revival and the Flecktones. Over the years, he has been nominated for multiple Grammys and currently shares Grammy wins with Asleep at the Wheel, Alison Brown and Edgar Meyer.

Now in their established careers, Fleck and Washburn are known to be banjo superstars.

Fleck takes the banjo into unusual territory like funk, jazz and classical. Meanwhile, Washburn prefers to play in the more traditional clawhammer style.

“We love all types of music and are inspired by the wide swath of human expression,” Fleck said. “We do love roots music and are very familiar with the people within our idiom, which is wide, and can encompass folk, bluegrass, americana and old time music.”

The couple released their first self-titled album together in 2014, which contains a mixture of original songs as well as old “Appalachian classics.” On tour, they will be performing a majority of selections from this album.

Washburn and Fleck will be in Knoxville on Feb. 20th at the Bijou Theatre at 8 p.m. Tickets can be purchased at knoxbijou.com

An ode to a bygone era is one thing. An ode that does not know when to be an ode and when to be a movie is another.

“Hail, Caesar!,” the latest film from Joel and Ethan Coen, is made with enough good intent to remain a watchable piece of Hollywood self-love, but it lacks the focus and finesse necessary to turn genre pastiche into something of consequence.

Following Hollywood fixer (Josh Brolin) as he navigates a world filled with egotistical actors, snooping gossip columnists and Communist conspiracy in search of kidnapped movie star Baird Whitlock (George Clooney), “Hail, Caesar!” rolls along at a dignified pace, drifting through genres and characters like a guided tour of a studio backlot.

At different points, “Hail, Caesar!” adopts the garb of a Biblical epic, a film noir, a musical, a melodrama and a Western. On a referential level, it is obvious that the Coens adore old studio fare, but stylistically, these narrative departures do little to adopt the look of their real-life inspirations.

The fun in exploring these genres lies less in their narrative content and more in their visual hallmarks, so it is a little disappointing that the Coens do not take the opportunity to flex their muscles and express some directorial flair.

“Hail, Caesar!” flirts not just with the aforementioned genres but also with characters. Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand, Channing Tatum, Scarlett Johansson and Jonah Hill appear throughout the film, but each receive only a fraction of the total runtime; the Coens instead devote too much attention to Hobie Doyle (Alden Ehrenreich), a “singing cowboy” actor who adds little to the overarching narrative.

They do not even seem all that interested in Clooney, whose kidnapping feels like a fairly low-stakes conflict, or Brolin, whose moral and ethical quandaries weigh less than a feather.

Tatum shines in the film’s best moment, a glorious nautical-themed musical number, but like his fellow comrades in this star-studded cast, he deserves something with a little more meat; I would much rather see him save the showmanship for, say, “Magic Mike XXXL 3D.” The Coens remain a little more consistent visually, collaborating with their regular cinematographer Roger Deakins for the first time since 2010’s “True Grit.”

Deakins’ style lends “Hail, Caesar!” a

The latest film... is made with enough good intent to remain a watchable piece of Hollywood self-love, but it lacks the focus and finesse necessary to turn genre pastiche into something of consequence.”

certain level of tastefulness that is both impeccable and inoffensive. Every interior feels snatched from a Sears-Roebuck catalog; even cigarette butts are placed on-screen with precision.

Although the Coens still shoot on film, they are big proponents of digital color correction, which they first utilized in 2000 to give “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” its sepia tint. For “Hail, Caesar!,” digital color correction is used to put particular emphasis on blue-gray tones and yellow, but that emphasis is easy to abuse.

While Deakins’ cinematography is fairly clean-cut, he lets in too much light, yellowing the film like a piece of old parchment paper; George Clooney, a star with a Roman profile if there ever was one, looks a little like a spray-tanned Lego man.

This is the second film the Coens have made about the studio system during Hollywood’s Golden Age, the first being 1991’s “Barton Fink,” a dark and alienating tale about a hellish town that fries fresh talent like a chicken cutlet. This time their interpretation is more adoring than insidious, but it might be a little too stuffed with love.

The Coens are more interested in the pieces than the puzzle, and the end result is an unorganized anthology of incidents, accidents and inaccuracies.

Travis Tritt brings ‘90s country to Knox Chelsea Trott

Contributor

Legendary ‘90s country music singer, Travis Tritt, will be taking the stage this Sunday, Feb. 21 at Downtown Knoxville’s Bijou Theatre.

Tritt is known for many songs such as “It’s a Great Day to Be Alive,” “Help Me Hold On” and “Anymore,” which were all country chart-toppers in the early and late 1990s.

Being a veteran of the ‘90s generation of classic cowboy country music, Tritt has had to find a way to keep his music and fan base alive by keeping up with the times.

“You know, we’ve really tried to embrace social media in the last couple of years and use it as a tool to reach out to the fans and draw a new fan base and bring in people to what we’re doing,” Tritt said.

Because of these measures, records report that even after an ongoing 25-year career, Tritt is still drawing in a massive fan base and selling out venues at his concerts.

However, he prides himself with being true to his roots and continues to showcase all the country classics that drew his fans to him in the first place.

“We try to engage the audience as much as possible and we play nothing but solid hits, songs

that have been hits for us over the years going back to the very beginning of my career,” Tritt said. “And I think the fans really enjoy that.”

However, Tritt has been doing more than performing hits from his glory days. He also debuted his successful new album, “The Calm After…,” where most songs were written and co-produced by Tritt himself, and one features a duet showcasing his daughter, Tyler Reese, in a remake of the ‘80s pop song, “Sometimes Love Just Ain’t Enough.”

Knoxville has seen Tritt many times throughout his career, but Courtney Bergmeier, assistant general manager at the Bijou Theatre, said this will be his first appearance on the U.S. Cellular Stage of the Bijou.

The Bijou, which showcases everything from Knoxville’s jazz groups to opera productions, will turn into an upbeat, high-energy venue for the country music star and his show.

As for how well Tritt’s hits have translated through ticket sales, Bergmeier states “The show is sold out — so interpret that as you will.”

The tickets, starting at an average of $47.50, sold out quickly to the country music fans that will fill the 700-seat Bijou this Sunday night.

The show will begin at 8 p.m. For more information, contact the Bijou Theater at Info@ KnoxBijou.com or by phone at 865-684-1200.

On pooping in front of cats and modern dating

Peter Cates For Pete’s Sake

The other day, my girlfriend’s roommate’s cat wanted to cuddle with me while I was on the toilet.

Moo (short for Moostache because she has a little white mustache) and I have a complicated relationship. Like all cats, Moo is incredibly kind one moment and incredibly violent the next. This quality has made me a dog person for the majority of my life.

I feel similarly about committed relationships as I do about cats. They have their appeals, but ultimately I’m just not sure that they work for me.

Sarah and I have been dating for a total of nine months (there was a six month break in there, but we don’t mention that), and have spent the majority of our relationship as non-exclusive. Some people’s gut reaction to non-exclusive relationships isn’t exactly positive. We’ve gotten everything from “what kind of self-respecting person would do that?” to “so will you ever be in a real relationship,” which make for eventful conversations. So for the most part, we don’t talk about it with other people.

There are a lot of reasons we do it. The easiest way to explain it is that we’re young and neither of us are looking to commit to one person for the rest

of our lives right now, so why not allow ourselves the freedom to go on an occasional date when we want?

If she were to find someone she connected with better, I wouldn’t want her to miss out on exploring that opportunity because of me.

But whether you think it’s stupid or immature or immoral, I don’t really care because it works for us, and we’re happy. I mean, for the most part. Except maybe when she eats my fries when I offered to buy her some of her own. But it’s fine. We really are happy.

A more earnest question I get from people I’m close to is, “do you ever think you’ll be ready for an exclusive relationship?” And the best answer I can give to that goes back to Moo. After swatting her away from her several attempts at leaping up on my pale, bare thigh, I flushed the toilet and the two of us curled up on the couch for a nap where she slept on my chest for an hour. I love that cat. Which is a sentence I never thought I would be able to write. That is to say, maybe Moo is changing my opinion on cats.

And maybe that will happen for my view on relationships too. Maybe I’ll reach a point one day where

Finding the work you love to do

Sarah Hagaman Turn of Phrase

My resistance had gone so well; I’d become an English literature major, and never stepped foot in a biology class. I wore hipster jeans, wrote in coffee shops and joined several humanities organizations. I refused to don any white coats.

Still, like thousands of disillusioned juniors, I heard these fateful words coming out of my mouth: “I’m thinking about going to medical school.”

And like any optimistic pre-med, I found myself sitting in a chemistry lecture hall, surrounded by freshmen. The smell of PCB lingered on their shirts.

Two weeks into the class, I sat in the office with my professor, discussing hybrid orbitals and pretending my head didn’t descend into a fog while attempting to identify molecular properties.

My professor looked at me through his spectacles.

Just before meeting, I’d discovered his name on the cover of our class textbook ... because he’d written it.

My professor had conducted groundbreaking work in chemistry, and normally taught intensive graduate level classes.

“I don’t get many English majors in my class,” he said, peering at me curiously.

I stuttered out my potential interest in medical school. He leaned forward, listening closely to my impression of the medical field and potential job market. He saw me beam while I briefly talked about literature.

“What do you love to do?” he asked, sitting back into his chair.

“Write.” I responded instinctively. My professor paused; I flushed at my too-quick reply.

But instead of berating the difficult (impossible)

job market that writers and humanities majors face, he quietly said something surprising: “Sarah, do what you love, and you’ll never work a day in your life.”

I understood his meaning, though he never said it outright.

My professor loves chemistry; I sensed it in his movements as he led our class through experiments, and in the way he marveled over chemical properties of the universe. At the mention of hydrogen bonds, I practically broke into hives; he broke into a smile.

Choosing a career forms an enormous part of our college experience. Freshmen worries (“I got asked to prom again”) morph suddenly into senior conversations (“I got asked to hold a Skype interview”).

Somewhere between our old high school dates and applying for graduation, we have to generally select a profession or career.

According to Scott Dinsmore, the founder of “Live Your Legend” and speaker of TEDx talk, “How to Find and Do Work You Love,” 80 percent of Americans don’t like their job according a Deloitte Shift Index survey.

His mission is to ask a simple question: why do you do what you’re doing?

Our career failure reflects who we really are. We unwittingly sculpt our resumes to live a life we didn’t really choose.

Dinsmore contended the world needs people who love what they do.

“Don’t ask yourself what the world needs,” Dinsmore said, quoting Howard Thurman. “Ask yourself what makes you come alive, then go and do that. Because the world needs people who have

I’m comfortable locking in with one person, at least for a time. I’m not opposed to that; it’s just not for me right now.

But on a broader scale, I think we’re all just trying to figure out what works for us, especially during these college years. We’re entering adulthood, and we’re realizing that we get to choose how our lives go.

I guess I expected that societal norms would just fit for me as an adult, but it turns out that when I get to choose without anyone telling me what I’m supposed to do, I’m a lot happier doing things a bit differently.

And that’s okay. Just because it changed later in life for someone else doesn’t mean it will ever change for me or that it won’t. I’m trying to live my life by taking whatever comes, and so far that’s working out all right for me. But honestly, what other choice do we have?

Maybe you aren’t a cat person and having Moo watch you poop doesn’t sound like an ideal bathroom atmosphere. That’s fair. But for me it works, so leave me be.

come alive.”

Finding work you love matters. Our productivity, innovation and potential gift to the world depend upon our passion for what we do.

Everyone’s different, Dinsmore said, but all of us have the ability to love the work we do.

“But as I’ve made these discoveries, I noticed a framework of really three simple things that all these passionate world-changers have in common, whether you’re Steve Jobs or just, you know, the person who has the bakery down the street,” Dinsmore said.

The key, however, is having the self-discernment to know what you love and the courage to make it happen. Dinsmore identified three essential components to finding a dream job: 1. Know yourself. If you don’t know what you’re looking for, you’ll never find a career that suits you.

2. Gain experiences and do the impossible. Actively encounter the world, yourself and gain valuable life lessons that push your limits.

3. Surround yourself with passionate people.

Others with great passion and ambition challenge you, inspire you and draw you closer to your goals.

I could become a decent doctor—but I know exactly what makes me come alive every single day.

Hint: it can’t be seen in an x-ray.

So ask yourself: what is the work you can’t not do?

Vols, Punter struggle in 80-70 loss at Kentucky Troy Provost-Heron Training Editor

LEXINGTON, Ky. — In the midst of a four-game road losing streak, Rick Barnes knew Tennessee would need to get something aside from Kevin Punter and Armani Moore.

The UT coach didn’t even get the combination of his most reliable players.

Moore held up his end of the bargain, posting a double-double with 21 points on 8-for-15 shooting and 11 rebounds. Punter managed to score 19 points, but on a meager 4-for-14 shooting performance.

Sixteen days after his game-high 27 points led UT to a 21-point comeback and 84-77 victory over Kentucky, Punter’s poor outing played a part in the Vols’ suffering

an 80-70 loss to the No. 14 Wildcats inside Rupp Arena.

“They did a great job on Punter tonight,” Barnes said. “They were working so hard on keeping him away from the right side of the court. KP has to make that adjustment.

They worked hard in trying to slow him down early.”

Kentucky kept Punter off his game from the opening tip.

After Jamal Murray stepped out of bounds to begin the game, Punter fired a mid-range jumper and watched it clang off the rim.

The senior guard, who entered the game as the nation’s 10th-leading scorer at 22.3 points per game, missed his first five shots of the game and didn’t record his first points until the two minute, 36 second mark of the opening period. “(They forced him left), but he can play

off the left side,” Barnes said. “He’s done that a lot this year. I don’t know why he was so locked in to feeling like he had to get to his right.”

Aside from Punter and Moore, the closest player to double figures was freshman guard Shembari Phillips with seven points.

Murray led the way for Kentucky with 28 points and Derek Willis tacked on a careerhigh-tying 25 points.

After jumping out to an 11-point lead with six minutes left in the first half, the Vols were able to trim the deficit to six points at the intermission.

UT came out flat in the second half, hitting only one of their first five shots in the first 3:51. Over that span, the Wildcats built their lead to 18, thanks in part to three three pointers.

In total, Kentucky hit 11 three-point shots, including a 7-for-13 (53.8 percent)

clip in the second half, compared to UT’s 22 total field goals.

“We did a terrible job finding their shooters in transition,” Moore said. “Kentucky did a great job in getting wide open shots in transition and I feel like that really killed us.”

Some of Punter’s struggles may be attributed to an ankle injury the Bronx, New York, native has been battling for a few days.

“It hurt bad,” Punter said. “(It hurt) enough, but I’ll be alright … I honestly don’t know what it is. I didn’t roll it. It was just hurting before the game started.”

Punter’s ankle will have less than 48 hours to recover before the Vols’ next contest as they face LSU on Saturday (TV: ESPNU, 5:30 p.m.) inside Thompson-Boling Arena.

“It’s a quick turnaround,” Punter said.

“We just have to get our mind right and try to protect our home court.”

Notebook: Moore steps up in loss at Kentucky Taylor White

Asst. Sports Editor LEXINGTON, Ky.-- With Kevin Punter struggling from the field, the pressure turned to Armani Moore for offensive production.

The senior stepped up when his number was called.

Moore led all Tennessee scorers with 21 points and 11 rebounds when the Vols fell to No. 14 Kentucky 80-70 in a game that wasn’t as close as the final score made it appear. “I just felt like I came out and didn’t try to force anything tonight,� Moore said. “I took the right shots and the points came and the rebounds came.�

Moore scored 12 of his 21 in the first half, helping keep Tennessee within striking distance at the break with the Vols trailing by just six points at halftime.

Punter ended the game with 19 points, but shot a measly 4-of-14 from the field.

While the leading scorer Moore amped up his aggressiveness, shooting 8-of-15 from the floor his most shot attempts in a game since he took 17 on Dec. 22.

He didn’t get much help on the offensive end though, since no other player hit double figures with the Wildcats focusing

their defensive effort on slowing down the two seniors. Shembari Phillips was the next highest scorer with only seven points.

Moore put some of that blame on himself. “It’s tough at times,� Moore said. “But that just shows that me and (Punter) have to try and get more people involved. We can’t try to do everything ourselves. We have to try to be playmakers for other people, because we’re going to have the ball in our hands 99 percent of the time.�

Baulkman goes down: With the clock winding down, Tennessee’s Devon Baulkman went up for a defensive rebound, getting tangled up with Kentucky’s Isaac Humphries in the process. Baulkman went down holding his shoulder while Punter immediately called for the training staff to take the court.

The senior has dealt with shoulder injuries throughout his two-year career at Tennessee, separating it three times last season, but he elected not to have surgery on the injured left shoulder in the off-season.

Baulkman hit his first shot from the field, but cooled as the game went on, scoring just four points.

Baulkman went straight to the locker room after getting up, but he later returned to the bench with his arm in a sling. Tennessee coach Rick Barnes said Baulkman was hav-

ing x-rays done on the shoulder after the game, but if he missed any time, it provided an opportunity for young guys to step up. “You have to be excited about what Shembari is doing,� Barnes said. “I think Detrick Mostella can help us some too. But our team is so interchangeable. We can put (Robert) Hubbs out there at the three or use Admiral (Schofield). We can overcome that.�

Moore has watched Baulkman deal with this injury before, and he was confident after the game that Baulkman would be ready to go for Tennessee’s next game Saturday against LSU. “This won’t be the first time he’s dealt with it,� Moore said. “But hopefully it will be the last.�

The other guys: Derek Willis torched the Vols, shooting 7-of-11 from 3-point range, many of those coming without a defender nearby. Jamal Murray led all scorers, shooting 8-of-12 from the field and 3-of-6 from behind the arc. “That’s pretty much what coach talked about,� Moore said. “We have to key into their key guys, but we can’t let other guys like Willis go and have a big night. We let (coach) down by letting him go out and have a big night.�

Notebook: Lady Vols lean on Graves in win Trenton Duffer Copy Editor

Bashaara Graves entered the night finding herself on three different watch lists — career free throws made, career rebounds and games started.

Before the night ended, Graves had moved up one spot on each of the lists. The senior’s dominating performance gave the Lady Vols the boost they needed to beat the Ole Miss Rebels 57-51.

After the game, Graves joked that a cold ice bath was waiting for her after playing 36 minutes in the win.

“It’s gonna be a long one,” Graves said. “Just gotta get ready for the next game.”

The senior had 15 points on 5-13 shooting and snagged 12 rebounds in the win. The double-double was the 28th one of the senior’s career and the seventh one this year.

There was an extra weight on Graves’ shoulders Thursday night after starting center Mercedes Russell went down early in the first quarter with an ankle injury that kept her sidelined the remainder of the game.

“

She’s playing like she’s on a mission, and she is. She’s a senior, and she’s leading this basketball team. Her effort is unbelievable … I just can’t say enough about Bashaara.”

Holly Warlick, Lady Vols head coach

Head coach Holly Warlick was pleased with Graves’ leadership after Russell went down with the injury.

“She’s just so constant,” Warlick said. “She’s playing like she’s on a mission, and she is. She’s a senior, and she’s leading this basketball team.

Her effort is unbelievable … I just can’t say enough about Bashaara.”

Warlick later said that she was unsure of the severity of Russell’s injury, but that the redshirt sophomore told her that she was “okay.”

Diamond’s Dud: With Delino DeShields in attendance after his social media outburst on Monday, Diamond DeShields slipped up offensively in the win over the Rebels (10-16, 2-11 SEC).

DeShields only needed five points to move into the 1,000 career points club, but the former Tar Heel ended up with zero points on 0-4 shooting. She also had four turnovers, four rebounds and two assists during the game.

Warlick feels that DeShields is trying to do too much on the court and that she needs to settle and let the game come to her.

“She’s trying to play so hard with everyone else that she’s going 0-4 with four turnovers,” Warlick said. “It wasn’t a great night for her, and she was still positive on the bench.

“I think she was pressing, and she just didn’t have a good game.”

Turnovers turned down: The Lady Vols’ 12 first half turnovers looked to be steering the team toward another tough game.

However, Tennessee cleaned up its act in the second half, committing a season-low five turnovers and finishing with 17, which is their season average.

Their second half turnover amount was only the second time this season that the team has scored single-digit turnovers in a half. The last time it happened was Dec. 19 against Oregon State. The Lady Vols committed nine turnovers in the first half of their win against the Beavers that day.

Sophomore Jaime Nared said that the team played more efficiently in the second half, resulting in fewer turnovers.

“We just have to make smart passes and not turn the ball over as much,” Nared said.

Up Next: The Lady Vols (16-10, 7-6 SEC) will travel to LSU to take on the Tigers on Sunday (TV: ESPNU, 2 p.m. ET) before making the trip to Tuscaloosa to take on the Alabama Crimson Tide next Thursday night.

That game is scheduled to begin at 8:30 p.m.

ET. Tennessee’s final home game will take place on Feb. 28 at 1 p.m. and will be broadcast on ESPN2. The game will be Senior Day and will be the final game of the season before the Lady Vols head to Jacksonville, Florida in March for the SEC Tournament.

Dunbar’s big shot lifts Lady Vols to win over Ole Miss Jonathan Toye

Sports Editor Kortney Dunbar knew she had to make a play.

Ole Miss had just switched to a zone late in the fourth quarter and was flirting with a comeback against No. 25 Tennessee.

The Lady Vols needed someone to hit an outside shot to extinguish the Rebels’ rally.

Dunbar didn’t shy away from the moment.

The sophomore forward drained a 3-pointer with a minute remaining. The shot proved to be the dagger in Tennessee’s 57-51 win over Ole Miss Thursday night at Thompson-Boling arena.

“Thank God I got her (in the game),” Warlick said afterwards. “I gave her an opportunity and she delivered.”

Dunbar only played three minutes, but scored five critical points. She scored a layup on a fast break that put Tennessee in front 52-51, ending a 10-0 Ole Miss run. On Tennessee’s next possession, She extended Tennessee’s lead to 55-51 with a clutch triple, putting an end to the Rebels’

upset bid.

“I knew going in, how they were in zone, how Holly kind of pushed me in, I knew exactly why I was going in,” Dunbar said.

“I just loved coming out there and doing what I could do in helping my team pull out a win.”

Bashaara Graves provided plenty of help in the winning effort. The senior forward scored 15 points and snagged 12 rebounds, and only committed one turnover. Her 11 first-half points was one of the few bright spots in a half riff with miscues.

“She is just so constant,” Warlick said.

“We take Bashaara Graves for granted and we shouldn’t. She is playing like she is on a mission.

“I just can’t say enough about Bashaara.”

Jaime Nared and Te’a Cooper both scored 10 points for Tennessee (16-10, 7-6 SEC).

Shandricka Sessom scored a game-high 21 and bolstered Ole Miss (10-16, 2-11) to an early first-half lead. A’Queen Hayes added 12 for the Rebels, who have now lost seven straight.

“We gave ourselves a chance to win,” Ole Miss coach Matt Insell said. “Dunbar made

a big shot … That was a backbreaker.”

Before Dunbar delivered the backbreaker, Ole Miss kept the 10, 548 people in attendance uneasy for most of the night.

The Lady Vols starting center Mercedes Russell suffered an apparent ankle injury early in the first quarter. It didn’t get any easier for the Lady Vols. Ole Miss hit three 3-pointers to take a 19-14 lead and led 33-30 at halftime.

The Rebels began to cool off in the third quarter, however, failing to score in the final seven minutes of the period. Tennessee capitalized and closed the quarter on a 10-0 run.

The Lady Vols led by as much as nine in the fourth quarter, but the Rebels weren’t finished. Ole Miss switched to zone and Tennessee’s offense instantly hit a roadblock. Tennessee didn’t score for five minutes and Ole Miss took a 51-50 lead with 2:39 left, drawing nervous groans from the crowd.

Dunbar wasn’t disturbed by the zone.

She knew her moment was coming.

“I kind of knew we were going to need a Sophomore Jaime Nared dribbles the ball during shot,” Dunbar said. “And it got executed.” the game against South Carolina on Feb. 15.

And the Lady Vols won.
