According to baseball historians, it's the fastest a pitch has ever traveled in a college game.
Of course, the throw shouldn't surprise too many ... Joyce has been lighting up radar guns all year -- constantly hitting 103 and 104 MPH.
But, still, you can hear in the broadcast footage of the pitch -- fans in the stands let out audible gasps as the 105.5 flashed on the stadium's radar gun.
Joyce, a redshirt junior, used the crazy fastball to throw four innings of 1-hit ball on Sunday ... securing the win for the Vols while striking out six Tigers batters.
No word on when Joyce will pitch again for UT ... but good luck to whoever's got to get in the batter's box against that dude. Sheesh.
