KNOXVILLE, Tenn — Tennessee baseball scored, scored, and scored again in a 27-1 thrashing of Iona on Friday night inside Lindsey Nelson Stadium.

Winning by 26 runs is two runs shy of tying Vols' program record for the largest margin of victory.

Tennessee had 21 hits in 44 at-bats. The Vols hit five home runs for the second straight game.

In the second inning, Tennessee scored eight runs, which was their highest total for any inning.

Trey Lipscomb had five hits and drove in nine RBIs. The runs batted in was just one shy of tying single-game program record.

He hit for the cycle in this game, becoming the first to do so since 2016 when Jordan Rodgers did it.

Tennessee plays Iona two more times over the weekend on Saturday and Sunday.
