Tennessee faces another challenging showdown as they prepare to take on Arizona at 11:05 AM EST on Sunday. This matchup is arguably the Vols’ toughest of the non-conference season, as they go head-to-head with the red-hot Arizona Wildcats, who recently upset the No. 1-ranked Texas A&M Aggies. The Vols will hand the ball to freshman standout Tegan Kuhns, who will make his first start of the season. Kuhns has only appeared in one game so far, earning a win in just 1.1 innings of work. Expect the Vols to rely heavily on their bullpen, as they have two quick-turnaround games on Tuesday and Wednesday, making it crucial to preserve their pitching depth.
Tennessee is currently 2-0 in the Astros Foundation Classic, and a win today would secure them first place in the event. With Kuhns on the mound and a deep bullpen ready to step in, the Vols are aiming to continue their strong start and claim the top spot.
