Tennessee baseball Orange & White World Series opener canceled by rain in Chattanooga in second inning
CHATTANOOGA − The opening game of Tennessee baseball’s Orange & White World Series was canceled in the second inning due to rain Wednesday at AT&T Field.
Tennessee is scheduled to play the second game of the series at 6:30 p.m. ET Friday at Smokies Stadium in Kodak. The public address announcer indicated tickets purchased for the Orange & White World Series would be good for any Chattanooga Lookouts game in 2025.
Rain steadily fell and led to a 15-minute delay before the game. The rain picked up early in the game and unloaded in the second inning. Umpires called the teams off the field after pitcher Orange pitcher Nate Snead struck out White third baseman Chris Newstrom in the bottom of the second. The White team led 1-0 thanks to a first-inning Levi Clark home run.
Liam Doyle dominated for Tennessee again
Liam Doyle got in two innings as the starter for the White team. He dominated again.
The Ole Miss transfer struck out five in two innings, including striking out the side in the second. He waved to the Orange dugout after striking out Colby Backus to end the second. Shortstop Gavin Kilen grounded out to Doyle in the first inning as the only batter who didn’t strike out.
Doyle threw 23 of 27 pitches for strikes.
Levi Clark homed off Nate Snead
Clark smashed a long homer to right-center off Snead with one out in the first for the lone run in the game. He also homered in Tennessee’s exhibition against Troy on Oct. 27 in Jackson.
Clark was the highest-ranked hitter in UT’s top-ranked 2024 recruiting class. He was the No. 36 recruit, according to Perfect Game. Clark started at first base, which is one of the positions he has played in the fall. He also has worked at catcher and in left field.
Nate Snead was cruising outside of Levi Clark’s homer
Snead allowed the homer to Clark, but was cruising outside of the hit as the Orange starter.
He struck out Jay Abernathy, Dean Curley and Reese Chapman in the first inning. He struck out Newstrom before the game was called to record all four outs via strikeout.

JACKSON, Tenn. (WBBJ) – The Tennessee Highway Patrol held an open house Thursday at the THP Jackson District Office in West Madison County for those interested in becoming a state trooper.
Attendees had the opportunity to learn about the various operations of the THP and the roles the department offers.
Trooper Tiffanie Williams said the career comes with competitive benefits and a sense of community responsibility.
“What makes us a good career choice is, one, base your retirement plan is pretty good, your benefits are pretty good. Also, just giving back to the community — we kind of hold ourselves to a higher standard,” Williams said.

Tennessee State men’s hockey has once again canceled its inaugural season.
The first ever ice hockey team at an historically Black, public university was expected to begin play in 2025-26, but the season was canceled due to a fundraising shortfall. Now, the team has canceled its 2026-27 season according to a source with knowledge of the situation who wished to remain anonymous because the news is not public.
The Tennessean reached out to Tennessee State president Dwayne Tucker, who decline to comment on the situation.
The Tennessee State’s men’s hockey website does not have a schedule, roster, or any team events listed on its website. The site’s most recent update was July 10 of last year, an announcement about the 2025-26 season cancellation. Requests for additional information about the hockey team have gone unanswered.
This delay in the start of the men’s hockey team comes three years after the team’s inception was announced at Bridgestone Arena ahead of the 2023 NHL Draft. The Nashville Predators and NHL were instrumental in bringing a team to Tennessee State, and a representative with the Predators confirmed that support is ongoing.
While the 2025-26 cancellation followed unrest about the school’s financial situation, it’s unclear if this year’s cancellation is for the same reason or if its related to the school’s recent turmoil in the athletic department.
In May, six coaches gave a vote of no confidence for Tennessee State’s athletic director Mikki Allen. A letter to Dwayne Tucker on May 29 expressed concern about the “current direction, leadership, communication, and operational management of the athletic department” under Allen.
Men’s hockey coach Duante Abercrombie was not among the six coaches mentioned in the letter.
