No. 13 Tennessee (3-0) ended its opening weekend of the 2023 season with a 6-0 victory against No. 8 Northwestern (2-1) Sunday at the NFCA Leadoff Classic in Clearwater, Florida.

The Lady Vols opened its 2023 season Friday, defeating Howard, 21-1, and Illinois, 9-2.

Tennessee was scheduled to play South Alabama and No. 6 Texas on Saturday. Both contests were canceled due to inclement weather.
