The Vols also are hitting high-velocity home runs but haven’t matched last season’s numbers yet. Second baseman Gavin Kilen has recorded the highest exit-velo on a home run of 110 mph. In 2024, Tennessee power hitters Christian Moore and Blake Burke both slammed 117-mph home runs.

Lady Vol Karlyn Pickens threw a 78.2 MPH pitch, the fastest in college softball history, surpassing Monica Abbott's previous 77 MPH record.

The Lady Vols softball team recently beat Oklahoma after one of its pitchers broke a world record. The achievements could benefit the team and its players.
