Fifth-year senior Wrenne French scored her first goal of the season, and junior Tara Katz logged the first goal of her collegiate career. Senior goalkeeper Ashley Gabor made her first start as a Volunteer, tallying two saves on the day.
Tennessee (4-0-0) dominated possession, out-shooting Louisiana (1-3-0) 33-3 and only giving up one corner kick.
French scored UT's lone goal of the first half just after the nine-minute mark, heading the ball near post off a corner served by senior Hannah Tillett.
The Vols wasted no time adding to their tally in the second half, with Katz carving through the Ragin' Cajun defense to put the Big Orange up 2-0 just over a minute into play.
Freshman Taylor Huff ran onto a serve from sophomore Maddie Eskin to score her fourth goal of the season at the 62-minute mark, sliding a shot past the Louisiana keeper and into the corner.
A long ball from freshman Claire Rain set redshirt-junior Brooke Wilson up for her second goal of the season 14 minutes later, putting UT up 4-0.
A lightning delay with just over 12 minutes left to play created a break in the contest, but no additional goals were scored once play resumed.
UP NEXT: Tennessee will continue non-conference play, heading to Tampa on Thursday for their first matchup against a ranked opponent this season in No. 15 USF. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. and will be streamed on ESPN+.
BALANCED ATTACK: With Wrenne French and Tara Katz each finding the back of the net against Louisiana, 10 different Vols have scored at least one goal this season.
LOCKDOWN DEFENSE: Through four games, UT's back line has limited opposing teams to 19 shots and just four corner kicks.
STARTING STRONG: For the first time in program history, Tennessee has opened the season with four straight shutouts.
