Tennessee Baseball Has Accomplished Two Of Its Goals On The Redemption Tour, With One Big One Remaining
There was a redemption feeling for this Tennessee baseball team as they ran through the regular season and set their eyes on the SEC Tournament. After coming up one game short last season in Hoover, winning the tournament was just another bump in the road they had to pass. They had done everything right up until this point, which included winning the SEC regular season title. But now, Tony Vitello and his team have to finish what they started.
There will be folks out there waiting for the Vols to slip up in the regionals or super regionals, that comes with the territory of being the best team in college baseball, but it also reflects the way in which they play the game. Thinking back to when Tony Vitello first arrived at Tennessee, there weren't many folks around the conference worried about what was happening in Knoxville.
For first baseman Luc Lipcius, winning the both the SEC titles this season is a quick reminder to what he endured when first stepping foot on campus in Knoxville.
