With their opener a week away, the Tennessee Lady Vols will take the court Wednesday night to give fans a first look at Kellie Harper’s third team on Rocky Top. It’ll be a family battle between two head coaches as well.

UT, which is ranked No. 15 in the preseason AP Poll and No. 12 in the preseason Coaches Poll, will host the Georgia College Bobcats for an exhibition game. The Division II program in Milledgeville, Ga., is led by Harper’s younger brother, Russ Jolly. Just like Harper, he is in his third year as head coach of the program.

This is the first exhibition game the Tennessee Lady Vols will play in two years. Last year, the COVID-shortened season eliminated any possibility of that. Here is all the information you need for the matchup between these two teams.

Coming off a 17-8 season and a second-round exit from the NCAA Tournament, UT tips off this season having to replace leading scorer and leading rebounder Rennia Davis. Also, they have to figure out a way to offset a season-ending injury to rising sophomore Marta Suárez and the departure of backup center Kasiyahna Kushkituah and backup guard Destiny Salary.

However, everybody else is back. That includes three of their starters and six of 10 players overall to play the whole season and average at least eight minutes a game. Headlining that group is preseason All-American Rae Burrell, who tied Davis for the leading scorer last year and enters her senior season at guard.

In addition to Burrell, UT returns key guards Jordan Horston and Jordan Walker along with center Tamari Key. Meanwhile, they will enjoy two experienced additions. One is the return of Keyen Green, who suffered a season-ending injury last year, and the other is Alexus Dye, who transferred from the Troy Trojans. Add in four new recruits, and this team is deeper and more experienced.

Georgia College, meanwhile, is looking to improve from a horrendous 1-13 campaign last year. They are 6-36 in two years under Jolly. However, they return three of five starters and five of nine rotational players, so like the Tennessee Lady Vols, more experience plus more depth with seven new freshmen brings some cautious optimism to the program.
