Tennessee opened the season with a pair of wins at UNC Wilmington on October 1. Following the meet, three Vols earned SEC weekly honors for their performances. Sophomore Jordan Crooks was named SEC Swimmer of the Week after posting a pair of individual wins—highlighted by a nation-best time of 19.36 in the 50 free. Junior Bryden Hattie swept the springboard events to earn the third SEC Diver of the Week honors of his career. Completing the sweep for the men’s awards, Gui Caribe won SEC Freshman of the Week winning the 100 free (43.86) and finishing second in the 50 free (20.22). In the Orange & White intrasquad competition last weekend, Caribe recorded a time of 19.80 in the 50 free, marking a significant jump in the event and a time that would rank inside the top 10 nationally.

Bad idea. Saturday is all about the Vols vs. Alabama in the biggest college football game ever at Neyland Stadium.
