Coach Summitt Unveiled On Knoxville Family Justice Center Poster

June 20, 2009

KNOXVILLE - University of Tennessee Lady Vol basketball head coach Pat Summitt has partnered with the Knoxville Family Justice Center and Operation for HOPE Foundation to raise awareness and put an end to domestic violence. The poster campaign featuring Coach Summitt and the words "Ending Family Violence = VICTORY" was unveiled Thursday morning at the Knoxville Family Justice Center. "I am very thankful for the Knoxville Family Justice Center, the people here make a difference. I am here today because I want to help make a difference," said Summitt.

Domestic violence is an issue that occurs in Knoxville and Knox County as 23 domestic violence homicides have occurred in the past three years, 10 of which have come in the past year. Knoxville Police Chief Sterling Owen told the gathered crowd that in 2008 over 16,400 domestic violence calls were made to 911, about one call every half hour. "However, that is a positive trend as there were over 18,600 calls in 2007. We believe that the Knoxville Family Justice Center has helped that trend," said Owen.

Nashville is now 'String Music City'

By TENNESSEAN
June 18, 2009

Basketball tourneys raise city's profile

The one-time image of Nashville as a non-sports community has undergone a dramatic change in the past decade, thanks largely to the arrival of the Nashville Predators and Tennessee Titans. Throw in the emergence of the Music City Bowl, a 30-plus year run by the Nashville Sounds and the landscape looks quite different than it did in the 1950s and '60s.

Just how significantly the city has changed as a sports destination was reinforced on Wednesday when the Southeastern Conference selected the Nashville Sports Council to host its Women's Basketball Tournaments in 2011 and 2012 and Men's Basketball Tournament in 2013. Nashville will be host of an SEC or NCAA tournament for five consecutive years, beginning with the SEC Men's Tournament next spring and culminating with the NCAA Women's Final Four in 2014.

Kiffin Clinic for Women Called Smashing Success

June 13, 2009

Tennessee's female fans took a crash course in UT football Friday, and early returns were that they passed with flying Orange and White colors. Head coach Lane Kiffin and his first-year staff hosted the inaugural Lane Kiffin Football Clinic for Women on the UT campus. A total of 214 orange-clad "students" signed up and were in attendance Friday morning before the bell struck 9. Five hours later, the reviews were all A's.

"I hate to admit this but I thought it was going to be pretty lame," Knoxville's Lynn Taylor said with a laugh. "I was wrong; it was great. They had us totally fired up for this season. I can't wait to go to the games because I will see them in a completely different light. "I got to see things I would never get to see and meet people I would never get to meet. I just really enjoyed it." Attendees began with tours of the Neyland-Thompson Sports Center, followed by welcoming comments from Kiffin and athletics director Mike Hamilton. Layla Kiffin, wife of the Vols head coach, then answered questions before turning things over to UT's all-star coaching staff.
