Tennessee tops Vanderbilt 75-62

The Tennessee Volunteers finally did something they hadn’t done recently: win convincingly inside Memorial Gymnasium.

The Vols used a huge second half surge to defeat the Vanderbilt Commodores 75-62 on Saturday night. Tennessee trailed 35-30 at the half.

Dalton Knecht continued his absolutely scorching play lately, finishing with 32 points on 13-21 shooting. Tyrin Lawrence led the Commodores with 21 points.

Despite the margin of victory, it took a while for the Vols to get going. Vanderbilt jumped out to an early lead and managed to stay just in front of the Vols for the majority of the first half.
