Breaking News: Tennessee Volunteers Confirms the departure of another top experience Star as…
The Tennessee Volunteers matchup against the Saint Peter’s Peacocks on Thursday. The game has added motivation for one family.
March Madness is a celebration, tournament, or hectic scene and a time filled with crazy and awesome storylines. In the Volunteer’s first matchup this season, they have multiple storylines. One of the storylines is the well-known history of Saint Peter’s two years ago. They made the ultimate Cinderella run, making it all the way to the Elite 8, which the Volunteers have never done.
The next storyline is the Volunteers’ struggles in March Madness and their first round last year against the Louisiana Ragin Cajuns. The Volunteers ultimately made it to the Sweet 16 before losing to the Florida Atlantic Owls. The big storyline of this game is the battle of the brothers. Zakai Zeigler will take on his brother Armoni Zeigler, who is the guard of Saint Peter’s Peacocks
It is no secret that most of the Tennessee Volunteers fanbase sees Zakai as one of the best players on the team overall. As the SEC Defensive Player of the Year, Zakai is a complete force in all basketball factors. The 5-foot-9 guard is an elite defender who produces suffocating perimeter defense, which creates steals and turnovers in favor of the Volunteers. He has bettered his perimeter shot and is an exceptional passer. Finishing is above average despite his smaller frame.
