Tennessee’s two leaders in batting average for the still-young season, Kavares Tears (.462) and Robin Villeneuve (.563), combined to go 5-7 with four RBIs, a double each and Tears’ team-leading fourth home run (tied with Billy Amick, who also went 2-4 with a HR) as the Vols downed High Point 7-4.
Freshman lefty Matthew Dallas got his second start of the season and out there throwing whatever makes the term “fastball,” an understatement. Though he struggled getting the ball over the plate — five total walks and a HBP in just 2.2 IP — he didn’t surrender a hit, a run or a walk and struck out three.
