The Lady Vols

Folks in Knoxville are avid fans of women's sports at the University of Tennessee.   The female Volunteers are almost always national finalists in their fields.   Recently,  the Lady Vols softball team made national news when they had to take shelter in a building corridor during tornado
warnings in Oklahoma City.    Annabelle,  three year old grand-daughter of a friend of my cousin Cheryl, remembered the team in her bedtime prayers:  "Please, God, keep the Lady Vols safe from the Big Potato. . .it is a long, long way from our house so we don't need to be scared."  Loyalty from all ages!
