Today we’ll have to say goodbye to two Lady Vol seniors.

Setting several defensive records along the way, Ellen Mullins has anchored a back row that won an SEC Championship three seasons ago and has been in the top two in the SEC the last two seasons (along with junior Nikki Brice, who is graduating early).

After transferring in and sitting out a year due to injury, Whitney Heeres came in this season and provided some much needed senior leadership to a very young offense while also being one of UT’s major contributors, standing first on the team in solo blocks and second on the team in hitting percentage.

Be sure to come out to Thompson Boling Arena this afternoon to show your support as the Lady Vols finish off the 2013 season vs Mississippi State at 1:30pm.
