If you want some proof that Tennessee Vols athletics are unified across all sports right now, look no further than UT softball head coach Karen Weekly's tweet after the Lady Vols' weekend sweep of the Missouri Tigers.
On Sunday evening, after Tennessee's 4-0 win against Mizzou to complete the sweep (the Lady Vols outscored Missouri 21-2 in the series), Weekly sent a tweet that said "stood on business", which is an obvious reference to Missouri head football coach Eli Drinkwitz's comment to Josh Heupel after the Tigers' win against UT last season.
Drinkwitz said "we stand on business, Josh" to Heupel after Missouri's 36-7 win against the Vols in Columbia last fall, creating a media firestorm in the process.
As for Tennessee's softball team, they're off to a 22-4 start to the season and they're currently riding a 14 game winning streak (they haven't lost a game yet in March).
Softball tends to get a bit overlooked this time of the year with all of the talk about the Tennessee men's basketball team in March and the Vols baseball team, but the Lady Vols are cruising right now and they're a lot of fun to watch. They have a legitimate chance to reach the College World Series for the second straight season.
