Lady Vols Fall 1-0 in Season-Opener at Indiana

BLOOMINGTON, Ind.  – The Lady Vols suffered a 1-0 loss in their season-opener at Indiana Thursday night.

Despite having four shots on goal, Tennessee (0-1-0) was unable to find the back of the net.

Sophomore Forward Kate Runyon paced UT two shots on goal as Sammi Woods and Reese Mattern logged one apiece.

Both teams applied pressure in the first half and entered the second 45 minutes of play tied 0-0.

Indiana (1-0-0) came out of the gates in the second half and quickly registered a goal in the 50th minute via Kennedy Neighbors.

The Big Orange put up two more shots on target in half two, with Woods’ coming just one minute after the Hoosiers’ goal.

Runyon gave the Lady Vols their final chance of the night in the 83rd minute, but Indiana goalie Jamie Gerstenberg was able to notch the save.

Although one goal was allowed tonight, Tennessee goalkeeper Ally Zazzara recorded three saves.

UP NEXT: The Lady Vols look to bounce back and will return home to host Chattanooga on Sunday in a 6 p.m. ET matchup at Regal Stadium.
