CAN DO
For Tennessee, everything started with Candace Parker (3). The 6' 4" junior, coming off her Wooden Award season, would prove to be even better in 2007-08.
STUDYIN' SCARLET
Senior guard Shannon Bobbitt (00) kept an eye and an arm on Rutgers's Matee Ajavon in a Feb. 11 rematch of last year's NCAA final. ( Tennessee would pull out a disputed 59-58 win.)
FULLER EXTENSION
Junior forward Alex Fuller, here shooting over Notre Dame's Becca Bruszewski in the Lady Vols' 87-63 win on Jan. 5, was a consistent contributor, with 6.1 ppg.
FLOORIN' IT
Freshman Angie Bjorklund hit college and never looked back. She would lead the Lady Vols in free throw percentage and rank second to Shannon Bobbitt in three-pointers, with 68.
NICE GRAB
Pat Summitt said she was "thrilled" to land Vicki Baugh (21), and the 6' 4" freshman, here reaching for a rebound against DePaul, came up big, leading the team with a .552 shooting percentage.
VALENTINE'S DAY MASSACRE
"We've got to regroup," said senior guard Alexis Hornbuckle (14) after No. 1-ranked Tennessee squandered a 21-2 lead to lose to LSU on Feb. 14 in Knoxville. The Lady Vols would do just that, closing out the season with 14 straight victories.
LOOKING AHEAD
Guard Sydney Smallbone was another of Tennessee's strong freshman foursome. "Incredibly dedicated," in Pat Summitt's words, Smallbone should play a big future role.
GUNS OF AUGUSTE
Though playing injured, senior forward Alberta Auguste, here putting it up against Rutgers, brought fire off the bench all season on both offense and defense.
VOLUNTEER SPIRIT
Nicky Anosike? Pat Summitt called the 6' 4" senior, shown dogging Georgia's Rebecca Rowsey for a loose ball in the Lady Vols' March 2 victory, "my coach on the floor." Opponents just called her tough.
TOURNAMENT TURNABOUT
Tennessee avenged its earlier loss with a 61-55 win over LSU to take a record 13th SEC title. Said Candace Parker, here scoring two of her 28 points over the Tigers' Sylvia Fowles, "We had something to prove."
