UT charges admission to volleyball matches and not soccer so that tells me the athletic dept. considers fan interest for volleyball to be higher.

Well, volleyball averages about 2 1/2 times the crowd soccer does and plays more home matches. It also costs a lot more money to turn on the lights and staff TBA then it does the soccer stadium. So it’s probably close to being a wash, but you’ve got to make it back somewhere. I think Tennessee has shown that it is serious about winning in both sports, however.

No, she must have an injury, hope it’s not serious, she was a projected starter.

Welcome to Rocky Top Savannah Jackson.



I am so excited and blessed to announce my verbal commitment to play D1 soccer and continue my academic career at the University of Tennessee.

I would like to thank my family, friends, teammates, and coaches for their support on and off the field. Thank you to my parents & sister for always being there and for their unwavering love and encouragement. Thank you to Slammers HB Køge, Coach Z & Walid for taking a chance on me, and my trainers Coach Michael and Coach Willie for helping me grow and develop as a player and a person over the years.

A huge thank you to Coaches Joe Kirt, John, Mike, and Marty for your belief in me and for making this process so special.

I can’t wait to be a Lady Vol! 🩵
