Record Breaking Number of Volunteers Headed to Olympics
The Tennessee Volunteers are sending a record-breaking number of competitors to the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, France.
The Tennessee Volunteers had a very successful calendar year across all sports this past year. The football team made the Citrus Bowl, the men’s basketball team made a deep run in the March Madness tournament, the women’s basketball team made it to the second round of the tournament, the baseball team won the national title and the softball team made it to the super regionals. A very well rounded athletics program and now it’s showing up on perhaps the biggest stage in the sporting world.
The Summer Olympics start on July 26th and the Volunteers are sending a record breaking number of competitors to the worldwide event. Tennessee announced that a total of 31 current, past and future Volunteers will be on site for the Olympics this year. That is a school record, the sixth most in the country and the second most in the SEC.
A school-record 31 Vols and Lady Vols — past, present and future — will compete on behalf of 18 countries at #Paris2024

The Recipient of Taylor Swift’s Bouquet Toss Has Strong Tennessee Football, Lady Vols Basketball Ties | Rocky Top Insider

This past weekend, music icon Taylor Swift and NFL star Travis Kelce tied the knot and were married in Madison Square Garden in New York City. Among the long list of antendees featured celebrities and athletes with ties to the two parties.
One of the athletes in attendance was Kelce’s teammate on the Kansas City Chiefs, Trey Smith. Attending alongside the former Tennessee football standout was his sister, Ashley Smith.
On top of being present for one of the most publicized weddings in recent history, Ashley Smith is leaving with a souvenir of sorts. She caught Swift’s bouquet toss, traditionally meaning she will be the next to get married.
“Celebrated an Enchanting Love S(T&T)ory,” Ashley Smith wrote on Instagram. “And somehow…I ended up catching Tay Tay’s bouquet. So here’s to believing it’s bringing a lifetime of love, luck, and laughter my way. Congratulations, Taylor & Travis! Cheers to forever T&T!”

Along with being near the Tennessee football program as the sister of one of the Vols’ best players, Ashley Smith played a role within the team. Initially, she worked in the Tennessee football office as Director of Football Administration & Special Events. She was then elevated to Director of Student-Athlete Career Development in 2018. She is now the Manager of Player Engagement in the NFL.
“Ashley has done a fine job for us, and I believe she’ll really thrive in this role,” then-Athletic Director Phillip Fulmer said at the time of her promotion at UT. “She was fantastic in her role with football, but now that she’s working with all sports, she’ll be able to make a positive impact on more of our student-athletes. She understands how important it is that they have resources and advocates to help them transition to the next phase of their career.”
Ashley Smith graduated from Tennessee in 2013. During her time as a student, she served as the head student manager under Pat Summitt’s Lady Vols basketball program. After graduation, she worked in the NCAA’s national office in Indianapolis and earned a master’s degree at Florida before returning to UT.
