🔴Geno Auriemma says UConn women's basketball will play at Lady Vols during 2024-25 season🔴
2Geno Auriemma was at the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame induction to escort former UConn star Maya Moore-Irons, but the longtime coach also unexpectedly broke some big news.
The historic series between Lady Vols basketball and UConn took a one-year hiatus last season, but Auriemma told Knox News after the ceremony at the Tennessee Theatre on Saturday the Huskies and Tennessee will play in Knoxville during the 2024-25 season. The series hasn't been announced by either school.
The historic series was originally ended after 2007 by legendary Lady Vols coach Pat Summitt. It was renewed under former Tennessee coach Holly Warlick, but the games didn't officially resume until the 2019-20 season, which was Kellie Harper's first season. The Lady Vols and Huskies played four games, alternating between campuses through the 2022-23 season. UConn won all four matchups, the last one a 17-point victory in Knoxville in January 2023.
