Ellen Mullins had 32 digs, the third most in a four-set match in program history. She moved into the school top ten for season digs, and now stands at 420. Lexi Dempsey had 40 assists, 7 digs, and 2 aces.
Statistically the team held their own — Tennessee out hit Arkansas .192 to .183, had more digs, matched them in blocks, and had only one less ace. The Lady Vols had less hitting errors, less service errors, less blocking errors, and less ball handling errors.
