Tennessee defeats Lipscomb in the season opener[*1] .
In each of the first two games, the Lady Vols held commanding 10-5 leads before putting each game away with substantial runs: 13-0 in the first game and 9-0 in the second. The third was a different matter, however, as Lipscomb kept the match close throughout the early going, taking four different two-point leads, the last one at 9-7.
South Dakota State won one of four matches at the Oregon Kickoff tournament[*2] . SDSU defeated Gonzaga but lost to Portland State, Eastern Washington, and host Oregon.
