Tennessee has hired Marshall coach Kim Caldwell as only the fourth head coach in the NCAA era of the Lady Vols’ program.

Tennessee has fired Kellie Harper as the Lady Vols coach after five seasons.

Kellie Harper always knew she wanted to coach college basketball, but never thought it would be at her alma mater Tennessee.

Zia Cooke scored 19 points and Kierra Fletcher had 15 as undefeated No. 1 South Carolina spoiled Tennessee’s pack-the-paint strategy in a 73-60 victory.

Hailey Van Lith had 23 points and six assists, Emily Engstler had 20 points and 10 rebounds, and No. 1 seed Louisville held off Tennessee 76-64 in the women's NCAA Tournament to reach the Elite Eight for the fourth consecutive time.

6 seed Michigan to its first regional semifinals appearance with a 70-55 win over third-seeded Tennessee on Tuesday in the women's NCAA Tournament. It's great to see Michigan is not only a football and men's basketball school, but also a women’s basketball school,” Michigan coach Kim Barnes Arico said. The Lady Vols missed their final seven shots of the period and ended their drought 1:18 into the third quarter. The Lady Vols' deficit grew to 17 points as Michigan went on a 22-7 run spanning the quarters. Rennia Davis scored 12 points to lead the Lady Vols, who were playing Michigan for the first time.

The Huskies routed Butler 103-35 on Tuesday, giving Auriemma his 1,099th win. “I wish she were still coaching and I wish I had to work a lot harder to catch her,” Auriemma said. Christyn Williams and Aubrey Griffin, who made her first start, each scored 17 points for unbeaten UConn (8-0, 7-0 Big East). Okako Adika scored 18 points for Butler (1-9, 1-8), despite spending most of the game in foul trouble, and Genesis Parker added 15 points.
