Tony Vitello details Brayden Krenzel's 'nasty stuff' against Wake Forest No. 14 national seed Tennessee (46-17) advanced to a super regional after defeating Wake Forest (39-22), 11-5, on Monday in a NCAA Tournament Knoxville Regional final. Freshman right-handed pitcher Brayden Krenzel (3-0) appeared in relief for the Vols. He pitched 2.2 innings and recorded three strikeouts, earning his third win in 2025. Krenzel totaled 55 pitches, including 33 strikes, against 11 batters. In the fourth inning, the 6-foot-3, 214-pound freshman pitched a one-two-three inning against Wake Forest. Dalton Wentz struck out looking, Luke Costello grounded out to shortstop and Austin Hawke struck out swinging. More: Brayden Krenzel by the numbers in 2025 regular season 'It reminded me of a couple of his other outings early in the year," Tennessee head coach Tony Vitello said of Krenzel's pitching performance. "ETSU was one. I know it didn't come out the way we wanted. That was the one nonconference game we lost, but they had a great team this year. He came in and changed the whole tune and he did the same thing today. There's been a couple of them like that. At Alabama he was like that. Alabama was in there competing, but on day three in Tuscaloosa it turned into a one-sided game when he got out there. "These guys know what they're facing, the two to my left, (Andrew Fischer and Manny Marin). It's nasty stuff. It's just about him having the presence that he had today, which he's done several times." Krenzel has appeared in 19 games, including two starts, for the Vols in 2025. He has recorded 41 strikeouts in 32.1 innings. Tennessee will next face No. 3 national seed Arkansas (46-13) in the Fayetteville Super Regional. The Vols played their regular-season series finale at Arkansas. Krenzel pitched 2.2 innings against the Razorbacks on May 17. He totaled five strikeouts against 13 batters in relief.
