SEC CHAMPS!!!!

WE WONNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!

We beat UGA 1-0 for the SEC Champ!!! IT WAS AWESOME!!!
I hope you guys got to watch it on tv. We have obviously had a very tough year, and for our girls to go to the tournament, work their butts off, silent their critics and bring home a trophy is such a rewarding feeling!
A big shout out to Ange also...this trophy kinda personifies her personality-she has kept this team positive in bad times, kept them working when they wanted to quit, and kept believing in them when they didnt know how to believe in themselves. What a well-deserved championship for her and this team!!

We find out tomorrow where we will go for ncaa tourney and who we will play....of course, i'll let you know :)

WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :)

GAME TIME!!

Hey Everyone!!

So, the game is Sunday at 3:30 eastern, and we are playing Georgia!!! They beat Florida last night 3-0. There was an own goal in the first 3 mins of play, and then they scored off of 2 set pieces.

UGA just beat us last week and ruined our senior day. So, there is alot of motivation to kick their butts!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is the article from last night's game...i think its great. Our girls are showing alot of heart and mentality...you guys would be proud!!

sec tourney!


Hey Guys-


Quick update here.

The girls leave today for Orange Beach, Alabama and the SEC tourney! The first game is Wed at 2:30 against Auburn. Last weekend, we lost to Auburn in overtime, so this is going to be a fun rematch for us!!

Please call/text/email any of our current players to show them that we support them and are thinking about them. Its been a hard season, with a lot of rough patches. We have learned a ton about character and dealing with adversity. You can always turn negative things into learning situations, and thats what we've been doing. We've talked alot this year about the tradition at TN and teams/players of the past. I know it would mean alot to them to hear from you all and to know that you still support them!!


Thanks for being the best alums EVER!!!
