The University of Tennessee suspended baseball coach Tony Vitello for the Volunteers’ weekend series with Dayton while university officials, Vitello and the NCAA handle a violation in the program.

Officials announced the suspension just before the Volunteers started the set with Dayton.

The Vols are ranked as high as No. 3 in one major poll. Josh Elander is replacing Vitello as acting head coach.

Tennessee says an update will be provided soon and that Vitello has acknowledged his mistake.
