Dalton Knecht, Zakai Zeigler, and Jonas Aidoo led Tennessee's offence with a combined 49 points
Vols' defence limited Saint Peter's to just 29 percent shooting from the field in UT's 84-49 round-of-64 victory.
Tennessee's offence jumped on a strong defensive St. Peter's team early and often, beginning with a Dalton
Knecht three-pointer for the game's opening basket and followed by three consecutive Jonas Aidoo dunks.
Zakai Zeigler's points and assists accounted for 10 of the Vols' first 17 points. By 10:40, UT held a 20-7
Aidoo extended by making one of two free throws on a shooting foul.
The Vols turned the ball over twice in less than a minute, from 11:08 to 10:15
Aidoo converted a St. Peter's turnover into a and-1 layup to get the offence rolling again.
