SCOUTING THE COLONELS

HOT OFF THE PRESSES

COLONELS - SKYHAWKS SERIES

LADY COLONELS BEAT MOREHEAD STATE BY 12 ON THE ROAD

This will be the 41st meeting between the Skyhawks and Colonels in a series that dates back to 1973. That early meeting, a heartbreaking 52-51 loss, was the only one of the series before UT Martin joined the OVC in 1992-93 and Eastern Kentucky became a permanent fixture on the conference schedule. In recent history EKU has held the edge, including the last seven straight. The last time UT Martin posted a win over the Colonels was at home in a 58-49 win on Jan. 30, 2006.

WHAT TO WATCH FOR Eastern Kentucky enters Thursday’s game having won two of its last three games and fighting to hold on to the fourth seed in the OVC Tournament, which would guarantee the Colonels a home game in the first round.

The Colonels last two games came against the top two teams in the league, splitting with a 28 point loss to league leader Eastern Illinois and a 12 point win over Morehead State, this past Saturday night.

Eastern Kentucky has a pair of double-digit scorers in Alex Jones, who is netting 12.2 ppg, and Talisha Davis with 11.7 points a night. As a team the Colonels have six players averaging five or more points per game.

On the glass Jones again carries the load for Eastern Kentucky, pulling down 8.4 boards a game. As a team the Colonels are out rebounding their opponents by almost three a game, but last time against UT Martin back in December they were able to pull a 12 rebound edge which helped lead to the 56-53 win for the Colonels.

MOREHEAD, Ky. – Career games by a pair of freshmen led the Eastern Kentucky to a 79-67 win at Morehead State on Saturday. Alex Jones scored 34 points and grabbed 18 rebounds, and Brittany Coles added 18 points as EKU knocked off the second place team in the conference.

With the win, the Lady Colonels (12-14) move to 8-8 in Ohio Valley Conference play, and coupled with Murray State’s loss to Eastern Illinois, have sole possession of fourth place with two games left in the regular season. The top four teams in the conference standings hosts first round OVC tournament games. EKU has doubled its number of conference wins from last season (4-14).

Jones went 12-for-17 from the field and 10-for-11 from the free throw line. Her 34 points bettered her previous career-high of 26 against Bethune-Cookman earlier this season. She had three assists, a block and a steal to go along with her career-best 18 rebounds, three more than her previous high. The double-double was her sixth of the season.

Coles’ 18 points were four more than her previous career-high set twice this season. Her six rebounds tied her career-best. She also contributed four assists and two steals. Fellow freshman Michaelea Kleist scored 10 points and grabbed six rebounds in just 12 minutes of play.

Chynna Bozeman led Morehead State (19-9, 12-4 OVC) with 27 points. She went 8-for-28 from the field and 7-for20 from three-point range.

EKU shot 47.6 percent from the field while holding the Eagles to 28.8 percent shooting. The visitors outrebounded MSU by 12. Morehead State had 18 offensive rebounds, compared to 14 for Eastern Kentucky, but the Lady Colonels had a 23-5 advantage in second-chance points. EKU held a 44-8 scoring advantage in the paint.

Morehead State made 11-of-35 attempts (31.4 percent) from three-point range, but went just 8-for-31 (25.8 percent) from inside the arc.

EKU led by 13 with less than five minutes to play, but Morehead State put together one more run. An 11-1 Eagle run closed the gap to three. Bozeman’s three-pointer with 1:35 to go capped the run and made it a 68-65 game. Two free throws by Courtney Lumpkin with 1:03 on the clock kept MSU within three, 70-67. However, the Lady Colonels scored the final nine points of the game to secure the victory. Jones went 5-for-6 at the free throw line in the final minute.

A basket by Jones with 7:25 left in the opening period, gave EKU a five-point advantage, the largest lead by either team in the first half. However, back-to-back three-pointers by Tiffany Hamilton erased the Lady Colonel lead and put Morehead State up by one, 23-22. Eastern Kentucky led by one, 33-32, at the halftime break.

The score was tied five times in the first half and the lead changed hands nine times. Eastern scored on all seven of its offensive rebounds and out-scored MSU 14-2 on second-chance points.

After a bucket by Courtney Lumpkin kept Morehead State within one, 38-37, the Lady Colonels scored seven straight to key an 11-3 run that put the visitors in front by nine. Jones scored seven of the 11 points. Her jumper at the 13:00 mark capped the run and put EKU in front 49-40. Baskets by Coles and Cherie White stretched the lead to 11, 57-46, with 9:30 remaining in the game.

A three-pointer by Bozeman with 9:10 showing on the clock cut the lead to six, 55-49, but the Eagles went almost three minutes without scoring. A three-pointer by Sarah Fraser-Jones pushed the margin back to 11, 60-49, with 8:08 to go. An old-fashioned three-point play by Michaelea Kleist put Eastern Kentucky in front by 13, 63-50.

LAST TIME OUT FOR UT MARTIN MARTIN, Tenn. - Cali Cupples hit five three-pointers to help lead The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team to a 65-43 win over visiting Southeast Missouri Saturday afternoon at Skyhawk Arena. Cupples tied the single-season three-pointers made record in the game, but LaBrica Ward netted a game-high 19 points to lead all scorers to go along with a career-best 15 rebounds.

The five three-point buckets by Cupples gave her 65 on the year, tying the program single-season that was previously set by Tamika Brown during the 1998-99 season. Cupples has already passed Brown for the most three-pointers attempted single-season record this year and has at least two more games to earn sole possession of both records.

The win is the second straight for UT Martin, and its fifth consecutive home win, improving its record to 9-17 overall and 7-9 in Ohio Valley Conference action. It also moved the Skyhawks one game closer to securing a berth in the OVC Tournament for the first time since the 2006-07 season. Southeast Missouri falls to 7-19 on the year and 4-12 in league play.

After Cupples free throw, Alecia Weatherly scored five consecutive points, then Cupples capped the run with a deep three-pointer from the top of the key with 8:49 remaining in the half. Both teams then traded three-point buckets until Southeast Missouri moved back ahead 19-16 with 5:45 remaining in the half on a Roberts’ trey.

Darnisha Lyles answered with a put back for the Skyhawks, which sparked another run for UT Martin. This time it was a 9-0 run over the next two minutes to put UT Martin up 25-19. Like the Skyhawk run earlier in the half, Cupples again capped this one as well with a deep three-pointer with 2:34 left before the half.

Southeast Missouri cut the lead to 25-22 with a minute left in the half before Ward scored five consecutive points to close the half. She made a steal in the back court and took it to the basket where she converted a three-point play, then on the next possession was fouled on a last second shot attempt. She converted both free throw attempts to set the UT Martin halftime advantage at 30-22.

At the half Ward led all scorers with 14 points, while Cupples added seven. Despite only shooting 29 percent in the first half, the Skyhawk defense was able to limit Southeast Missouri to only 30 percent shooting in the opening frame.

Southeast Missouri opened the second half with back-to-back baskets to pull within four, but then UT Martin countered with a 9-0 run. Lyles started the run with a put back then Erica Glisson added her lone three-pointer of the game. Smith added a three-pointer with 13:20 left to open up a 13 point lead for the Skyhawks.

Southeast Missouri cut the lead back to single digits with consecutive baskets but then Smith drained her second trey of the game to put UT Martin back up 42-30 with 10:49 remaining. From that point Southeast Missouri would never draw any closer the rest of the game. UT Martin pushed its lead over 20 when Cupples hit her fifth, and record matching, three-pointer of the game with one minute left. Glisson then added a free throw late to set the final score at 65-43.

In the game UT Martin shot 34 percent from the field, while holding Southeast Missouri to only 32 percent shooting. The Skyhawks hit 11 three-pointers in the game, which was a new season high. In addition to Ward’s second career double-double and Cupples 16 points, Weatherly chipped in 14 points of her own. As a team UT Martin out rebounded Southeast Missouri 44-30, its widest rebounding margin of the year.

INJURY REPORT

AGAINST THE VOLUNTEER STATE

Sophomore forward Samantha Harper suffered a dislocated knee cap and a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in the second half of the Tougaloo exhibition game and will miss the balance of the season.

Freshman guard Gentry Reedy suffered an ACL tear during the preseason. She has had surgery to repair the tear and was medically cleared to return to practice activities Jan 12. She will practice on a limited basis with the team but not play the remainder of the season.

Sophomore guard Allison Wright suffered an ACL tear in a Dec. 7 practice. She had surgury over the Christmas break and will miss the remainder of the season.

UT Martin has faced 23 different opponents from the Volunteer State of Tennessee and sports an all-time record of 165-273 against the in-state foes. Other than fellow OVC members, Austin Peay, Tennessee State and Tennessee Tech, the Skyhawks will face off with Belmont (4-17 all-time) and Memphis (9-24 alltime) this season.

NEXT FOR THE SKYHAWKS UT Martin will remain on the road for the final regular season game of the season, heading an hour east of EKU to Morehead State for a Saturday afternoon date.

IN SEASON OPENERS In 41 seasons, UT Martin has produced a record of 23-18 in season opening match-ups (home or away) and sports an impressive 13-5 mark when opening the season at home. Last season’s opening loss and this season’s 56-46 loss to Belmont wer the first season-opening losses at home for UT Martin since falling to the then No. 1 ranked Lady Vols of Tennessee and UT Martin basketball alum Pat Head Summitt in 1999.

IN HOME OPENERS In the last 31 seasons, UT Martin has put together a 21-10 record in home openers including seven of the last 10 since 2000. The program’s most notable home opener happened in 1997 when UT Martin Hall of Famer Pat Head Summitt brought her then No. 1 ranked Lady Vols to Skyhawk Arena.

58.3 - Murray State, 1/30/10

MULTITUDE OF PRESEASON DOUBTERS The Skyhawks were shown a great deal of doubt by the coaches and sports information directors around the Ohio Valley Conference, when they were voted to finish 10th out of 10 teams in the league’s preseason poll. Not only was UT Martin voted last in the standings, but they received the fewest number of votes possible (18) meaning every ballot cast unanimously had the Skyhawks in the cellar.

Morehead Stat was picked to win the league, receiving 147 votes, only one more than second place pick and defending OVC Tournament champ Austin Peay with 146. Picked to round out the top three is Tennessee State with 136 preseason votes.

COACHING STAFF ADDITIONS The UT Martin sidelines will look very different this season as three new faces grace the bench for the first time. Headlining the new additions is the program’s eighth ever head coach, Kevin McMillan, who takes over the program after an incredibly successful high school coaching career that culminated last year with a 35-0 undefeated run to a Tennessee State Championship at Gibson County High School.

Joining McMillan on the sideline is Brian Haskins, who also comes from a multitude of successes in the high school ranks at nearby Westview High School, in Martin, Tenn. The final addition to the staff is a graduate assistant and former player under McMillan, Heather Scruggs, who was a member of the Lambuth University NAIA National Championship team.

CUPPLES RETURNS After having her season cut short after only seven games last year because of a severe case of mononucleosis, and receiving a medical red shirt, Cali Cupples will return to the lineup for the Skyhawks this year. Cupples, most widely known for her sharpshooting ability from threepoint range will be looked upon to provide a serious scoring threat to the offensive make up this year.

NEW FACES FOR THE SKYHAWKS UT Martin welcomes eight new faces to the lineup this year in juniors Alecia Weatherly, Adria Greer and junior college transfer Darnisha Lyles along with freshmen Erica Glisson, Jessica Jones, Cherissa Vinson and LaBrica Ward.

WATCHING THE SKYHAWKS Nine of UT Martin’s home games will be broadcast on West Tennessee’s Public Television station WLJT-HD, while an additt ional 10 road games will also be broadcast on OVCSports.TV.

Kevin McMillan made a promise when he was hired to go wherever was needed to find the talent that would turn the Skyhawks’ program around and make it not only the best in the Ohio Valley Conference but also one of the best in the country. All the while though not bypassing the talent pool in West Tennessee’s back yard, which highlights McMillan’s first recruiting class.

UT Martin received nine commitments during the early signing period, all of which have championship experience and will bring a winning attitude to the Skyhawk women’s basketball program. The class is highlighted by a trio of players with a unique familiarity to McMillan, because they played for him at Gibson County High School, including last year’s magical 35-0 run to a Tennessee State championship. It also includes an all-star cast of the top talent from across Tennessee and one from Ohio.

With only four years worth of previous Division I college basketball experience on the roster to start this season, UT Martin holds the distinction as the least experienced team in the NCAA. This is the second consecutive year that the Skyhawks have held the youthful distinction, after beginning last year with only five years of experience.

Leading the experience on the floor to start this year were sophomores Allison Wright, Yalonda Davis and Samantha Harper who each appeared in all 29 games last year. Wright started 23 of those, followed by 16 starts from Davis and seven from Harper. Red shirt freshman Cali Cupples appeared in only seven games, starting one, before having her first season cut short by illness.

This season Harper and Wright will both have to lead from the sidelines. Harper’s season was ended after a torn ACL in the first exhibition while Wright suffered a torn ACL in a Dec. 7 practice, leaving Davis as the only available roster member with a full year of experience on the team.

Despite falling to the eventual champion Phoenix Mercury in five games, Dunn quickly became a fan favorite to a national TV audience, many of whom remembered her from her

HALL OF FAME COACHING DUO HAVE DEEP UT MARTIN CONNECTIONS The winningest college basketball coach of all-time in either the men’s or women’s game, Pat Head Summitt, began her college basketball career at UT Martin where she was a member of the inaugural basketball team, then known as the “Lady Pacers.” Summitt went on from her hall of fame playing career at UT Martin to become the head coach of the Tennessee Lady Vols, where she has since guided them to eight national championships and made the Tennessee program one of, if not the, most respected program in the women’s game.

Also a product of UT Martin, as one of the driving pioneers is UTM women’s basketball history, is Lin Dunn who was an incredibly successful college coach, most notably for her nine year run at Purdue where she guided the Boilermakers from 1988-96 and collected three Big Ten conference titles. She led Purdue to seven NCAA Tournaments, four Sweet Sixteen appearances and a trip to the Final Four in 1994.

In nine years at Purdue, she earned a 206-68 (.752) record and catapulted the school among the elite women’s basketball programs in the country and is still is the program’s winningest coach.

Dunn now has moved on to the professional game and currently guides the WNBA’s Eastern Conference champion Indiana Fever.

SKYHAWKS IN OVC HOME OPENERS

SKYHAWKS VS. THE BIG TEN

WEATHERLY JOINS ELITE COMPANY

UT Martin has compiled a 7-11 all-time record in the fi rst home games of the conference schedule since joining the Ohio Valley Conference after falling to Morehead State 59-42 this year. The last win at home to start the conference slate came in 2006-07 during a 73-57 win over Morehead State.

UT Martin has faced three Big Ten teams in its history, Indiana (1973, 93, 94 & 2009), Ohio State (1999) and Wisconsin (1992) and has compiled an 0-6 record. The Skyhawks have faced Indiana more than any other team from the Big Ten, including this year’s match up where the Hoosiers prevailed 80-46 at Assembly Hall.

By being named the Newcomer of the Week for a third time and in consecutive weeks, Alecia Weatherly joins a short list of Skyhawks who have achieved those feats. Only Nichole Lockridge (1997-99) has been named the Newcomer of the Week three or more times for UT Martin, capturing the honor a total of six times during her first year for the Skyhawks.

Weatherly joins a group of three other Skyhawks who have received the conference’s weekly newcomer award in consecutive weeks. Chanda Cordova earned the distinction in back-to-back weeks back in 1995, while Tessa Fields collected her consecutive awards in 1997 Before Weatherly joined the consecutive club this morning, Lockridge had been to last Skyhawk to earn the honor back-toback. Lockridge’s six total awards during the 199798 season included a stretch of three straight as she claimed every Newcomer of the Week award in the month of January.

NOTES FROM MOREHEAD STATE (Dec. 3) • Alecia Weatherly scored a team-high 19 points, 17 of which came in the second half.

• Jessica Pace added 10 points, marking the second time she scored in double-fi gures...both of which were home games.

• Morehead State hit 11-of-23 three-point attemps in the fi rst half but then only 1-of-16 in the second half.

• The Skyhawks allowed Morehead State to shoot 52 percent in the fi rst half, but then held them to only 19 percent from the field in the second.

NOTES FROM EASTERN KENTUCKY (Dec. 5) • Yalonda Davis scored a game-high 17 points on 6-12 shooting and a pair of three-pointers.

• Cali Cupples hit four three-pointers in the game to score 12 points, it was the fourth straight game she has hit at least two three-pointers.

• UT Martin forced Eastern Kentucky into a seasonhigh 26 turnovers.

WEATHERLY OVC NEWCOMER - THE SEQUEL Alecia Weatherly was named the Ohio Valley Conference’s Newcomer of the Week for the second time in three weeks December 7. Weatherly averaged 12 points and nearly seven rebounds in the Skyhawks’ conference-opening week of play but it was a 19 point and eight rebound showing against Morehead State that highlighted the two games for Weatherly.

She opened the game against the Morehead State by being limited to only two fi rst half points but then in the second half she exploded for 17, including a pair of three-pointers. She also pulled down eight rebounds in her 34 minutes of action.

Against visiting Eastern Kentucky Saturday afternoon, Weatherly struggled shooting the ball and scored a season-low five points. She made up for the poor shooting night though by also pulling down fi ve rebounds, dishing out three steals and picking up a steal.

Weatherly’s selection marked the 20th time that a Skyhawk has been named the conference’s weekly top newcomer and she becomes just the fifth player from UT Martin to be named a repeat winner.

Making Weatherly’s story even more unlikely is the fact that the junior, and 2006 Tennessee Class A Ms. Basketball, had not played in a collegiate game prior to UT Martin’s home opener against Belmont this year.

SKYHAWK ROAD WARRIORS UT Martin will spend a great deal of time on the road this year - well over 7,100 miles in fact. The longest trip of the year came in a November swing though the Lone Star State against Lamar and Houston Baptist, while the shortest trip of the year comes from the short 48 mile drive to rival Murray State.

NOTES FROM INDIANA (Dec. 9) • Alecia Weatherly scored a team-high 13 points against the Hoosiers.

• Freshman Erica Glisson made her first start of the season, replacing injured Allison Wright • Darnisha Lyles led the Skyhawks rebounding effort with nine against the Hoosiers.

SKYHAWKS VS. THE C-USA UT Martin has compiled a 10-31 all-time record against competitors from Conference USA. A majority of those games have come against in-state foe Memphis, who owns a 24-9 advantage in the series with the Skyhawks. UT Martin lost its only meetings with both Southern Miss and Rice, along with Marshall in a 65-48 decision earlier this year, while picking up one win over UAB in the five times the two programs have met.

SKYHAWKS VS. THE SEC UT Martin’s Dec. 22 date with the Kentucky Wildcats will mark the 40th time the Skyhawks have face an opponent from the Southeastern Conference. Overall the Skyhawks have amassed a record of 6-33 against the SEC. Half of those wins came against the University of Tennessee, while the Skyhawks have also downed Kentucky, Vanderbilt and most recently Ole Miss. UT Martin’s 77-66 win over Ole Miss in the opening round of the 1999 WNIT was the last time it downed a SEC foe.

DAVIS AND PACE LEAVE TEAM Sophomore Yalonda Davis and freshman Jessica Pace both left the team following the Skyhawks’ Dec. 9 game at Indiana. Both remain at the university pursuing their respective academic interests. On the year, the duo was responsible for 17.1 points per game, which represented 33 percent of the Skyhawks’ per game scoring at the time of their departure. Pace was tossing in nine ppg as a starter while Davis was averaging 8.1 ppg off the bench.

ONCE...TWICE...THREE TIMES AN OVC NEWCOMER FOR WEATHERLY For the third time this season and second consecutive week Alecia Weatherly was named the Ohio Valley Conference’s Newcomer of the Week. Weatherly earned the honor after her performance for the Skyhawks last week against the University of Indiana.

Weatherly turned in a team-best 13 points against the Hoosiers, while also pulling down six rebounds in 37 minutes of action. Weatherly logged the most minutes on the floor for UT Martin against Indiana, and showed a great deal of diversity in her scoring by connecting on two put-backs, while also hitting two-of-four from three-point range and a trio of free throws. Weatherly also dished out a pair of assists in the game.

JONES AND GREER JOIN TEAM Following the departure of Jessica Pace and Yalonda Davis from the team, the Skyhawks added a pair of walk on players to help fill the void left on the bench.

Jessica Jones was a member of the team prior to tearing her ACL during summer workouts. Before rejoining the team Dec. 16, Jones had been attending UT Martin and completing her knee rehabilitation.

Jones’ rehab is not fully completed at this point which will limit the amount of time she can play each game. Jones is also a former teammate of current Skyhawk Cali Cupples as a prep at Dyer County High School.

Adria Greer joined the team Dec. 16, as a junior, after having attended UT Martin as a student since 2007. Greer’s connection to the program came through assistant coach Brian Haskins who played his collegiate career at Lambuth University for Greer’s father, coach Mark Greer. Greer prepped at West Carroll High School, where she was an allstate player her senior season and set the Tennessee Class A single-season record for blocked shots with 200.

NOTES FROM MARSHALL (Dec. 20) • Both Alecia Weatherly and Cali Cupples played the full 40 minutes for UT Martin • Three Skyhawks registered double-figure scoring nights, the most in a game this year • Weatherly led all scoring with a game-high 14 points, while Cupples added 10 and Danishal Lyles netted a career-best 11 • UT Martin was outrebounded by its widest margin of the year to this point, 41-25.

NOTES FROM KENTUCKY (Dec. 22) • Alecia Weatherly scored a team-high 12 points against the Wildcats.

• Entering the game, UK was receiving votes in both the ESPN/USA Today and AP Top 25 Polls.

• During the game, Kentucky’s Victoria Dunlap attempted the first slam dunk in UK women’s basketball history.

WEATHERLY NAMED OVC NEWCOMER FOR FOURTH TIME Alecia Weatherly was named the Ohio Valley Conference’s Newcomer of the Week Dec. 28 because of her performance against Kentucky last week. The weekly newcomer accolade is the fourth of the year for Weatherly, which leads the conference.

Weatherly led the Skyhawk scoring attack against Kentucky by pouring in a team-best 12 points. Nine of those points came from a trio of makes behind the three-point arc, while also adding a jumper and a free throw. Weatherly also pulled down a rebound and dished out three assists against the Wildcats.

By being named the OVC Newcomer of the Week for a fourth time, Weatherly is now in very rare company. Only Nichole Lockridge (1997-99) has been named the Newcomer of the Week four or more times for UT Martin, capturing the honor a total of six times during her first year for the Skyhawks.

NOTES FROM GEORGIA STATE (Dec. 28) • UT Martin was limited to only 14 second half points, the program’s lowest point total in a half during the shot clock era.

• Paige Smith and Cali Cupples both tallied nine points in the game.

GAME 2

UT Martin vs. Belmont (Nov. 18, 2009 • Martin, Tenn. • Skyhawk Arena)

UT Martin at Memphis (Nov. 22, 2009 • Memphis, Tenn. • Elma Rhone Fieldhouse)

MARTIN, Tenn. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team accomplished one of its two primary goals in its season-opening matchup against Belmont, which was to contain reining Atlantic Sun player of the week Amber Rockwell and hold the potent Bruin offense at bay. Unfortunately though the Skyhawks were unable capitalize on the offensive end of the floor as missed opportunities ultimately allowed Belmont to escape with a 56-46 win.

The Skyhawks connected on only 19 of 33 attempts at the charity stripe and were held to only one three point bucket after draining nine from beyond the arc in their final exhibition game only two nights prior. Pace led the offensive effort for UT Martin, scoring 18 points on 6-11 shooting along with a team-high six free throws.

As a team UT Martin forced 15 Bruin turnovers but was only able to turn that into four points, while Belmont was able to pick up 11 points off 15 take-a-ways from the Skyhawks.

The real difference came on the glass where Belmont out rebounded UT Martin 42-38. Haley Nelson led the Bruins on the glass with a career-best 20, while also netting a game-high 19 points.

Belmont opened the game with a Kristin Bunch three-pointer only eight seconds into the game but then only netted one more field goal until the 13:15 point of the half. The Skyhawks weren’t able to capitalize though because they were held scoreless to open the game until Pace drove the lane for a layup with 15:56 left in the half.

A pair of Pace free throws pulled the game even at 8-8 with 11:29, but Belmont was able to respond and pull back ahead by five at 16-11 with 4:32 left in the half. UT Martin then went on a 6-0 run off a Pace layup and a pair of jumpers from Yalonda Davis to capture the lead at 17-16. It would be short-lived though as Belmont answered on the next trip down the floor with a Tristian Daniel layup and three-point play.

Two more free throws by Cali Cupples tied the game at 19 apiece but Belmont then closed the final 1:21 of the half on a 7-0 run to take a 26-19 lead into the locker room.

At the break Nelson already had a double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds for Belmont, while UT Martin was led by Pace’s eight points and Weatherly’s four boards.

In the second half the two teams combined for 32 fouls and 39 free throw attempts. The Skyhawks 12-25 shooting at the charity strip allowed Belmont to continue building its lead in the early moments of the second period and Rockwell’s only bucket of the game, a threepointer with 14:43 remaining, allowed the Bruins to move ahead by 12. They then extended the lead to its widest margin of the night at 42-27 on a Lawanna Holiday three-pointer with 11 minutes left, before Paige Smith answered on the offensive end with the Skyhawks only 3-ball of the night.

UT Martin trimmed the lead back to single digits briefly at 42-33 on a Pace free throw with 8:23 remaining. Belmont moved back in front by as much as 13 before a late 6-0 run pulled UT Martin to its closest point of the second half at 53-46 with 1:26 left. Belmont answered with a Rachel Swisher layup to end the Skyhawk run; then a Tereva Moore free throw set the final score at 56-46 with only second remaining in the game.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team dropped its first road game of the year to Memphis 68-51 despite a double-double of 20 points and 10 rebounds from Alecia Weatherly. The Skyhawks were within six of the Tigers with five minutes left in the first half but 22 turnovers ultimately sealed UT Martin’s fate.

The loss drops the Skyhawks record to 0-2 on the young year while Memphis improves to an even 2-2 on the season.

Memphis opened the game with a three-point bucket from Alex Winchell only 18 seconds in; then pushed its lead to 8-0 before Jessica Pace found Weatherly cutting to the basket for a layup to put the Skyhawks on the board with 16:25 remaining in the first.

Memphis then extended its lead to double-digits before Weatherly struck again with a pair of free throws to cut the Tiger lead to 13-4.

A pair of Skyhawk turnovers led to two Memphis buckets that put the Tigers ahead 18-4 with 11 minutes left. UT Martin then went on a 7-0 run that started with a Yalonda Davis driving scoop shot. Weatherly added the next five points in the run with a pair of free throws and an old fashion three-point play to cut the Tiger lead to only seven.

Memphis pushed its lead back to 12 before Davis and Weatherly struck again with back-to-back three-pointers that pulled the Skyhawks within six at 25-19 with 5:11 left.

To close out the half though, Memphis was able to push its lead back to double-digits and carry a 37-25 advantage into the locker room.

At the half Weatherly led all scorers with 14 points while Davis added six. The Skyhawks were their own worst enemy in the opening half with 14 turnovers, which led to 22 first half points for Memphis.

In the second UT Martin opened with a Lyles layup to cut the lead back to only 10, then worked within only seven at 43-36 on a Davis drive to the basket with 13:49 remaining.

After a Memphis answer, Weatherly again pulled the Skyhawks within seven with a jumper from the paint, but that would ultimately be as close as the Skyhawks would come the rest of the way.

Memphis then used a 7-0 run, which was aided by a pair of UT Martin turnovers, to stretch its lead to 14 at 52-38 with 11 minutes left. A Lyles free throw helped the Skyhawks chip the lead back to 10 with just over six minutes remaining but Memphis then closed the game out on a 12-5 run to set the final margin at 68-51.

In addition to Weatherly’s double-double, Davis finished the game with 14 pionts while Jessica Pace added five. As a team the Skyhawks shot only 28 percent from the field, with three three-pointers, while Memphis was able to shoot nearly 45 percent and drain six from behind the arc.

UT Martin at Lamar (Nov. 24, 2009 • Beaumont, Texas • Montangne Center)

UT Martin at Houston Baptist (Nov. 25, 2009• Houston, Texas • Sharp Gym)

BEAUMONT, Texas - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team hit eight three-pointers against Lamar Tuesday night, which is the most since the 2007-08 season, but it was not enough as the Cardinals picked up an 84-54 win at home. Six of those three-pointers came from redshirt freshman Cali Cupples, missing the program’s single-game record by only one.

Cupples finished the night with a team-best and career-high 21 points. That betters her previous career best of eight points early on during the 2008-09 season before having it cut short by illness. Prior to tonight’s breakout performance, she had been held without a field goal on the year.

The Skyhawks finished the night with 21 turnovers, which turned out to be the difference maker as Lamar was able to turn them into 33 points. The Cardinals had three members of the roster tally double digit scoring nights, led by 17 from Jenna Plumley who is a transfer from the University of Oklahoma that started on the 2008 NCAA Tournament team.

To start the game UT Martin netted the opening basket on a Jessica Pace put back to take the early edge. The Skyhawks then used back-to-back three-pointers from Cupples and Paige Smith to take a 10-7 lead at the first media timeout. The Skyhawks stretched their lead to four on a Pace free throw before Jenna Plumley answered for Lamar with a three-pointer of her own.

The Cardinals then used another three-pointer on their next trip down from Ashley Crawford to take the lead back at 13-11 with 13:08 remaining in the half. Alecia Weatherly tied the game at 13-apiece with a jumper in the lane but then Lamar was able to use a 18-5 run over the next six minutes to push its lead out to double digits at 29-18.

In the final two minutes of the half Plumley attempted to push the lead out with back-to-back threes, but Weatherly answered with an old fashion three-point-play and Cupples beat the buzzer with a three from the corner to set the score at 39-26 headed into the halftime break.

At the half UT Martin was shooting nearly 40 percent from the field and Cupples had hit three from behind the arc, but Lamar was connecting on 47 percent of its shots and had forced 11 Skyhawk turnovers.

In the second half Lamar was able to continue its hot shooting and push its lead out to as much as 30 at the game’s end. Cupples again was the bright spot for the Skyhawks in the second with three more of her three-pointers. Her first one of the second half cut the lead to only 14 with 17:16 remaining, but that would be the closest that the Skyhawks would draw the rest of the game.

Plumley answered the Cupples three with one of her own from the top of the key, then a free throw from Trashanna Smith pushed the lead out to 20 with 15 minutes remaining. Lamar then pushed its advantage out to 30 at the 9:25 mark before UT Martin cut into that by nine thanks in large part to back-to-back Cupples three-pointers.

They then cut it to 21 with five minutes left on a driving layup from Pace before Lamar was able to push it back to 30 at the final horn.

In addition to Cupples’ career night Weatherly and Pace both added nine points apiece while Lyles chipped in eight. Lamar out rebounded the Skyhawks 38-26 and also held the advantage in the turnover category, giving the ball up only 18 times.

HOUSTON, Texas - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team picked up its first win of the young season in a 66-53 decision on the road at Houston Baptist Wednesday night.

Three Skyhawks scored in double-figures, led by a season-high 18 from Yalonda Davis and doubledouble of 13 points and 12 rebound from reigning Ohio Valley Conference Newcomer of the Week Alecia Weatherly.

The win improves the Skyhawks record to 1-3 on the year, while Houston Baptist falls to 1-5 on the season.

The Skyhawks opened the game with plenty of open looks and forced three quick turnovers but were unable to put Houston Baptist in a deep hole early because of their own shooting struggles. After a Weatherly jumper and a Cali Cupples three-pointer gave the Skyhawks a 5-4 lead two minutes into the game, UT Martin went on a three minute scoring drought where they had three different three-point attempts rim out.

Another three-pointer went in for Weatherly to end the Skyhawk shooting woes and also put them ahead 8-4 with 15 minutes left in the first. Weatherly then drew a foul and completed an old fashion three-point play to give UT Martin its largest lead of the half at 23-16. Houston Baptist found its shooting stroke though and mounted a comeback on the backs of Jamie Spriggs and Destini Texada who combined to score 14 consecutive points for the Huskies.

The duo of Spriggs and Texada kept the Huskies close and set up the final shot of the half for Raquel Jones who hit a three for her only bucket of the first period to tie the game at 31-all heading into the break. At the half UT Martin was shooting 35 percent from the field and 4-13 from threepoint range. Weatherly led all scores with 11 and was only one rebound shy of a double-double.

In the second UT Martin adjusted its defense to better contain Spriggs and Texada and were able to also come out of the locker room shooting the ball much better than in the opening half.

Coming out of the half the Skyhawks quickly built a five point edge on a Paige Smith three-pointer and a Darnisha Lyles put-back.

The Skyhawks then stretched their lead to 10 at the 13:10 mark when Weatherly pulled up on a fast break from the free throw line to drain a jumper, which also forced a timeout from Huskies coach Todd Buchanan. Coming out of that timeout Houston Baptist mounted a 7-0 run to pull within three at 46-43 before Allison Wright connected on her only three-pointer of the game to push the lead back to six.

The Skyhawks then pushed the lead back to double figures at 59-48 when Davis was able to drive down the middle of the lane for a scooping layup. A Jessica Pace free throw stretched the lead to its widest margin of 14 at 62-48 with 5:27 remaining before the Skyhawks eventually closed it out 66-53.

In addition to Davis and Weatherly, Cupples added 11 points on 4-18 shooting and a trio of three-point buckets. UT Martin out rebounded the Huskies 43 to 36 and held them to only 35 percent shooting from the field.

GAME 5

GAME 6

UT Martin vs. Morehead State (Dec. 3, 2009 • Martin, Tenn. • Skyhawk Arena)

UT Martin at Eastern Kentucky (Dec. 5, 2009 • Martin, Tenn. • Skyhawk Arena)

MARTIN, Tenn. - Despite an outstanding second half defensive effort, The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team was unable to overcome a first half three-point attack as it fell to Morehead State 59-42 in its Ohio Valley Conference opener. The Skyhawks’ Alecia Weatherly led the offensive effort with 19 points and eight rebounds, while Jessica Pace also registered doubledigits with 10 points on the night.

The loss drops UT Martin’s record to 1-4 overall and 0-1 in the OVC, while the conference’s preseason No. pick improves to 5-3 on the year and 1-0 in conference play.

Early on in the game UT Martin was able to take a quick lead at 7-3 after Cali Cupples connected on her first three-pointer just under three minutes after the opening tip. After a fastbreak layup by the OVC’s preseason player of the year, Chynna Bozeman, Weatherly put UT Martin back on top by five with a three-pointer of her own.

The next trip down for Morehead State, hit the first of six consecutive three-pointers that highlighted an 18-2 run and put the Eagles on top 23-12 with 9:30 left in the half. Courtney Lumpkin hit four of the Eagles three-point buckets during their 18-2 run.

A putback by Pace ended the Eagles run and cut the lead back to single-digits, but Morehead State then again used the three-pointer to close the half on a 16-2 run and carry a 39-16 edge to the locker room.

At the half Morehead State was shooting 52 percent from the field and 48 percent from threepoint range, connecting on 11 of their 23 attempts. Lumpkin finished the half with 15 points, while Bozeman added 13. UT Martin shot just under 30 percent from the field and was led by Weatherly’s five points.

In the second half Morehead State struggled to find the basket, going scoreless the first 6:45 of the period and shooting a lackluster 9.1 percent with one field goal until there was 6:10 remaining in the game. The Eagles struggles came largely because of the Skyhawks matchup zone defense, while at the same time Weatherly was finding her offensive groove.

After Weatherly opened the half with a put back under the basket and Cupples added her second three-pointer of the game, Weatherly then scored 10 of the next 11 Skyhawk points to pull UT Martin within seven at 41-34 with 7:55 remaining.

Morehead State recorded only its second bucket of the half when Abby Steele connected on a three-pointer. Pace then used two trips to the charity stripe and a running jumper in the lane to score five straight points and pull the Skyhawks back within seven with 4:10 left at 46-39.

Bozeman answered Pace’s running jumper with one of her own on the next trip down, then Morehead State was able to find its shooting touch once again for the final three minutes of the game. The Eagles closed the game out on a 13-3 run that pushed the final margin out to 59-42.

For the game UT Martin and Morehead State both shot 35 percent from the field, but the Eagles were able to also shoot 30 percent from three point range and 90 percent at the free throw line. The Skyhawks however hit only 4 of 17 three-point attempts and were only 10 of 19 at the line.

For Weatherly, her 17 second half points were the most she has scored in a half this season and it marks the third time in five games that she has led the team in scoring. This is also only Weatherly’s fifth live game since her high school career ended in 2006.

MARTIN, Tenn. - For the second game in three days The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team mounted a feverish second half comeback, only to have it come up short in the end. This time Eastern Kentucky was able to hold on and escape with a 56-53 win at Skyhawk Arena, despite a game-high 17 points from Yalonda Davis and 12 from Cali Cupples.

The loss drops UT Martin’s record to 1-5 on the year and 0-2 in Ohio Valley Conference play, while Eastern Kentucky remains perfect in league play at 2-0 and 4-3 overall.

In the opening minutes of the game Eastern Kentucky was able take the early advantage, building a 7-2 edge by the first media time out. The Colonels then moved up by six before Alecia Weatherly connected on a 10 foot jumper to spark a 7-0 run that was capped by a deep Cupples three-pointer to put the Skyhawks on top 11-10 with just over 11 minutes left in the first half.

The lead was short-lived though as Eastern Kentucky’s Talisha Davis picked up a steal on the next UT Martin possession and went in for an easy layup to give the Colonels the lead right back. The Skyhawks were able to knot the game at 19 apiece when Weatherly converted an old fashion three-point play, but were unable to regain the lead the remainder of the half.

Eastern Kentucky used two of Brittany Coles’ three first half three-pointers to close the half on a 9-3 run and take a 33-24 lead into the locker room. Coles entered the game hitting only one of her 14 three-point attempts on the season, but in the first half went three-forfive from behind the arc. As a team Eastern Kentucky shot 50 percent in the first half, while holding the Skyhawks to only33 percent from the field.

Coming out to start the second half though UT Martin quickly found its shooting touch, Cupples in particular, when she hit three consecutive three-pointers to tie the score at 35-35 with 16:23 remaining.

However, after tying the game, UT Martin then again went cold from the field and did not score another basket until Davis connected on a three-pointer nearly seven minutes later.

The Skyhawks defense was able to contain the Colonels during the shooting draught, which allowed Davis’ three-pointer to pull UT Martin back within 41-38 with 8:55 left in the game.

Back-to-back Eastern Kentucky baskets pushed the lead back to seven with 7:35 left.

The Skyhawks then began to chip away at the lead on the back of Davis who used two free throws and a pair of jumpers to pull the score back to a three point game at 49-46 with 4:41 remaining. The Colonels were able to answer though and push it back out to five with 1:49 left on a layup from Alex Jones. Coming down the stretch the Skyhawks were able to cut it to only a two point game with 11 seconds left on a Davis jumper in the lane but the Colonels connected on a free throw in the waning seconds to seal the win at 56-53.

In addition to the big scoring nights for Davis and Cupples, Jessica Pace also added nine points while Darnisha Lyles led the rebounding effort with six. Allison Wright added a gamehigh four steals to help UT Martin turnover Eastern Kentucky 26 times on the night.

GAME 8

UT Martin at Indiana (Dec. 9, 2009 • Bloomington, Indiana • Assembly Hall)

UT Martin at Marshall (Dec. 20, 2009 • Huntington, W. Va. • Cam Henderson Center)

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team had a pair of double-digit scorers on the road against the University of Indiana, but the Hoosiers were able to defend their home court and pick up an 80-46 win Wednesday night. Current Ohio Valley Conference Newcomer of the Week Alecia Weatherly netted a team-high 13 points for the Skyhawks while Cali Cupples added 10.

The loss drops the Skyhawks record to (1-6, 0-2 OVC) on the year, while Indiana improves to (6-3, 1-0 Big Ten) on the season.

The Skyhawks opened the game by grabbing an early lead when Cupples drained a threepointer from the top of the key on UT Martin’s first possession. The Hoosiers were able to answer on the opposite end though with a three of their own from Aulani Sinclair. The Hoosiers then took their first lead at 5-3, but Weatherly knotted the game at five apiece with a pair of free throws with 17:14 remaining in the half.

Indiana then regained the lead at 8-5with a three-pointer from Jori Davis and pushed its advantage to six with 16:00 minutes left in the half. The Skyhawks answered with a Weatherly three-pointer and a Lyles layup to cut the lead back to only on at 12-11 at the 14:25 mark. From that point Indiana was able to hold UT Martin scoreless over the next four minutes, while also putting together a 13-0 run on offense to push its lead to 27-14 at the 9:58 mark.

Lyles ended the scoring draught with a put back down low and the Skyhawks began to chip away at the Hoosier lead. A Paige Smith three-point play cut the lead to only 11 with four minutes remaining in the half, but Indiana then closed out the half on a 10-2 run which allowed them to carry a 19-point edge into the halftime break.

In the first half UT Martin was led by Weatherly’s eight points, while Pace added eight. As a team the Skyhawks shot only 32 percent from the field and 18 percent from three-point range. The Hoosiers were able to connect on 55 percent of their shot attempts, including 40 percent from the behind the arc. Jori Davis scored 16 of the Hoosier points in 16 minutes of play.

McMillan added about the first half that, “I was happy to see we came out and played better in the first half, but we weren’t able to sustain it the entire first half. Letting them push it to 19 in the last five minutes of the half really hurt us.”

In the second UT Martin opened up on a 5-0 run when Lyles made an easy layup and Cupples connected on a three-pointer from the top of the key, cutting the lead to only 14 at 43-29. The Hoosiers went nearly three minutes in the second half before getting their first bucket, but then were able to go on a 10-3 run and push their advantage over 20 with 11:19 remaining in the game.

Indiana then used its size advantage in the post and capitalized on missed opportunities by the Skyhawks to eventually push the lead to its widest margin of the night at 80-46 when Aulani Sinclair nailed a three-pointer for the Hoosiers in the closing seconds of the game.

In addition to Weatherly and Cupples efforts on the night, Lyles finished up with eight points.

As a team the Skyhawks shot 34 percent from the field on the night, while the Hoosiers were able to connect on just under 50 percent of their attempts.

The Hoosiers had four double-digit scorers on the night, while Jori Davis led all scores with 19 points.

HUNTINGTON, W. Va. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team had three double-digit scorers, but were unable to knock off the Marshall Thundering Herd who picked up the 65-48 win Sunday in the Cam Henderson Center. Current Ohio Valley Conference Newcomer of the Week Alecia Weatherly led the offensive effort for the Skyhawks with a game-high 14 points, while Darnisha Lyles added a career-best 11 and Cali Cuppled chipped in 10.

The loss drops the Skyhawks record to 1-7 on the year while Marshall improves to 6-4 with its third consecutive win.

Marshall was able to take the advantage from the opening tip, when Chantelle Handy took the tip and scored on a layup only two seconds into the game. The Herd were able to open up a 6-0 lead before Alecia Weatherly nailed a pair of free throws at the 16:30 point of the half. The Skyhawks however struggled from the field early on in the game, being held without a basket until nearly eight minutes into the half when Cali Cupples connected on back-to-back three-pointers, pulling the Skyhawks back within two at 13-11.

After a timeout, Marshall responded with a three of its own from Veronica Ruiz to push its lead back out to five. Paige Smith pulled UT Martin back within three at 13-16 with 10:24 remaining but the Herd then found their shooting touch and went on an 8-0 run to move ahead by double digits with five minutes remaining in the half.

To close out the half UT Martin used a pair of Darnisha Lyles baskets and two free throws from Erica Glisson to move back within 12, but Marshall was able to finish on a 5-0 run and carry a 39-23 lead into the locker room.

In the first half UT Martin shot only 30 percent from the field and Weatherly, the current Ohio Valley Conference Newcomer of the Week, led the way with nine points.

Marshall was able to connect on nearly 60 percent of its shots from the field.

In the second half Marshall was again able to limit the Skyhawks’ field goals early on.

The Herd opened the half on an 8-1 run before Lyles laid in a shot with 16:35 remaining, moving UT Martin back within 47-26. After Mystee Dale answered on the other end, freshman Erica Glisson netted her first career field goal with a pull-up jumper in the lane with 14:49 left.

With 10:15 remaining a Paige Smith three-pointer pulled Herd’s edge back under 20 points at 57-40. UT Martin was unable to pull any closer though as Marshall went on to push its lead back out before setting the final margin at 65-48.

Marshall’s Chantelle Handy matched Weatherly for a game-high 14 points to lead the Herd, while Dale also added 12. In the game Marshall was able to shoot 50 percent from the field, while limiting UT Martin to only 30 percent shooting. The Skyhawks were also outrebounded 41-25 by the Herd.

GAME 10

UT Martin at Kentucky (Dec. 22, 2009 • Lexington, Ky. • Memorial Coliseum)

UT Martin at Georgia State (Dec. 29, 2009 • Atlanta, Ga. • GSU Sports Arena)

MARTIN, Tenn. - Despite double-digit scoring nights from Alecia Weatherly and Darnisha Lyles, The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team was unable to hand the Kentucky Wildcats their first loss of the year. Kentucky picked up the 87-47 win to remain one of only eight unbeaten teams in the nation.

“I think we competed well tonight and we never quit, which I was very proud of,” said UT Martin head coach Kevin McMillan. “Kentucky was the more athletic team and was able to capitalize on that, especially down low.”

The loss drops UT Martin’s record to 1-8 on the year, while Kentucky remains perfect at 11-0. Kentucky outscored UT Martin 32-4 in the paint, with those four points in the paint for the Skyhawks coming from Lyles as part of her seven point showing. Kentucky was also able to force the Skyhawks into a season high 30 turnovers, which turned into 48 Wildcat points.

UT Martin was able to force Kentucky into 17 turnovers, which was only two away from a season high.

After a basket from reigning SEC player of the week Victoria Dunlap to open the game, UT Martin’s Paige Smith answered with a layup off an in-bounds play the next trip down the floor to tie the game at 2-2 but that was the only time the rest of the night the game was tied. The Wildcats moved ahead 14-7 with 14:10 left in the half on the first of five first half threes from Keyla Snowden in the opening frame.

Kentucky was then able to use a 16-2 run over the next five minutes to extend their lead out to 30-9 with 8:30 remaining. Back-to-back jumper from Alecia Weatherly and Cupples cut the Wildcat lead to 30-13, but Kentucky was able to push it back above 20 heading into the locker room.

In the second half Kentucky was able to pick up where it left off and pushed its lead out to as much as 47 with 7:39 remaining in the game. The Skyhawks found their touch from three-point range late in the game connecting on five in the final 10 minutes of the game.

Three of those second half treys came from Weatherly, helping give her a team-high 12 points on the night. It also marked the most three-point shots she has hit in her career.

Cupples finished the night with 11 points, while Smith added eight and Erica Glisson chipped in a career high seven. On the board Lyles led the way with 10 of the Skyhawks 26 on the night.

ATLANTA, Ga. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team fell 61-32 to the Georgia State Panthers, tournament hosts of the Georgia State Invitational. In the game UT Martin was led by nine points apiece from Paige Smith and Cali Cupples.

The loss drops the Skyhawks’ record to 1-9 on the year, while Georgia State improves to 8-2 on the season.

“We played the defensive type of game we wanted to today,” said UT Martin head coach Kevin McMillan. “We just have to figure out a way to score the ball. Our team is still in need of someone to step up on the floor as a leader and until that happens, our offense could be rocky.”

Georgia State had a plan to go to Danyiell McKeller, who led the team in scoring coming into today’s game, as often as possible to start the game. The Panthers were able to execute that plan as McKeller used her height advantage in the post to score four of the first five Georgia State baskets of the day. The Panthers were able to build a quick 11-3 lead with 14:10 left in the half before Darnisha Lyles put back a rebound to cut the lead to only six.

Georgia Stat then used a 9-3 run over the next three minutes to push its lead out to double digits at 20-8 with 9:30 remaining. UT Martin answered with a back door layup by Smith when LaBrica Ward found her cutting to the basket, then Smith cut the Panther lead back to 10 at 24-14 when she banked in a three-pointer with six minutes left in the half.

To close out the half Georgia State was able to push its lead out to 16 at 30-14 before Cupples connected on a three-pointer and Smith added a free throw, to cut the halftime deficit to only 12 heading into the locker room.

In the opening half UT Martin shot 35 percent from the half, but allowed the Panthers to connect on 50 percent of their attempts. The Skyhawks connected on four of their seven threepoint attempts, including a pair from Cupples.

In the second half the Panthers were able to capitalize on UT Martin’s lack of depth off the bench. The Panthers pushed their advantage to 16 points before Erica Glisson hit a pull-up jump shot at the free throw line just over five minutes into the half. Over the next five minutes UT Martin scored only a Cupples three-pointer as the Panthers were able to push their lead over 20 for the first time with 10:25 remaining.

Georgia State continued to pressure the Skyhawks, limiting them to only three baskets the rest of the game. The Panther’s pressure also forced UT Martin to commit 25 turnovers on the day, including 12 in the second half.

In addition to Cupples and Smith’s nine point games, Lyles added six points while current Ohio Valley Conference Newcomer of the Week Alecia Weatherly chipped in four. Lyles pulled down a team-best eight rebounds, but as a team the Skyhawks were outrebounded 34-29. Georgia State’s McKeller led all scores with 19 points, while Shay Rawls also added 10 for the Panthers.

The Skyhawks will have a quick turnaround as they return to the court tomorrow afternoon at 2 p.m. for the Georgia State Invitational consolation game. UT Martin will learn its opponent later this evening, upon the conclusion of the Mississippi Valley State and Maryland-Eastern Shore game. The Skyhawks will face the loser of that game in their last tune-up before returning to conference play next week.

GAME 12

UT Martin vs Mississippi Valley State (Dec. 30, 2009 • Atlanta, Ga. • GSU Sports Arena)

UT Martin at Murray State (Jan. 4, 2010 • Murray, Ky. • Regional Special Events Center)

ATLANTA, Ga. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team used a season-high 10 three-pointers and career-high point nights from three different players to down Mississippi Valley State 69-65 in the consolation game of the Georgia State Invitational. Paige Smith led the way with a gamehigh 15 points, while Darnisha Lyles and LaBrica Ward each added 13 apiece.

The win snaps a six game skid for the Skyhawks and improves their record on the year to 2-9, while Mississippi Valley State falls to 3-7 on the season.

“I’m very happy to get a win today,” said UT Martin head coach Kevin McMillan. “We didn’t play our best game, but we got contributions from everyone that saw the floor which is what we have to do if we are going to be successful.”

After Mississippi Valley State opened the game with a layup from Kristen Ellis, Erica Glisson answered for the Skyhawks on the other end with a three-pointer from the top of the key, putting them on top early on. The Devilettes were able to regain the lead right back though when Colby Stallings converted a three-point play. The foul that sent Stallings to the line was on UT Martin’s Cali Cupples, her third in the three minutes of the game, which forced her to the bench for a majority of the first half.

With Cupples on the bench, Mississippi Valley State was able to build a six point edge at 14-6 with 11 minutes left in the half. Back-to-back driving layups from Ward and a back door score from Glisson cut the Devilettes lead to only two points Mississippi Valley State then went on a 5-0 run to push its lead out to its widest margin of seven at 21-14 with 4:50 left in the half. Closing out the half though, UT Martin answered with a 7-0 run, which was capped by a Cupples three-pointer, to even the score at 21-21. The Skyhawks looked to be headed to the locker room all tied up, but the Devilettes’ Stallings hit a deep three-pointer in the closing seconds of the half to give them the slight edge at the break.

In the first UT Martin shot only 32 percent on offense, but was able to limit Mississippi Valley State to only 26 percent from the field. All six Skyhawks that played in the first half scored at least two points, with Glisson’s five leading the way.

In the second half UT Martin opened up with a pair of quick baskets from Weatherly and Lyles, moving back in front for the first time since the opening minutes of the game. After trading baskets, and the lead, Mississippi Valley State moved back ahead and built a five point lead at 39-34 with 12:42 remaining.

Cupples responded on the other end with a three-pointer, which was the first of five consecutive from three-point range for the Skyhawks. The five straight threes included Ward’s first two career from behind the arc, along with helping build a six point edge for the Skyhawks at 49-43 with 9:23 left. UT Martin then stretched its lead to eight on a Lyles layup before the Devilettes began to chip away at the lead.

Mississippi Valley State was able to cut the lead to only two at the three minute mark, before Glisson doubled that with a pair of free throws. The Skyhawks moved back ahead by five on a three-pointer from Weatherly and again on a Ward reverse layup with 1:33 left.

With only 25 seconds left the Devilettes cut the lead to only two, but a late foul send Glisson back to the free throw line where she calmly hit both to seal the game and set the final margin at 69-65.

As a team UT Martin spread the scoring around with three in double figures. In addition to Smith’s career-best 15, Lyles and Ward also both recorded career-night’s with their 13 points. Glisson tallied a pair of career-highs with her nine points and seven assists. As a team the Skyhawks dished out 20 assists, which is also a season-high.

MURRAY, Ky. - Alecia Weatherly and Darnisha Lyles both recorded career-high scoring nights for The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team, but it was not enough as missed opportunities at the free throw line ultimately allowed Murray State to pick up a 5547 win Monday night. Weatherly finished up with a game-high 20 points and Lyles was the second leading scorer on the night with 14 in addition to a career-best 14 rebounds for her first double-double.

UT Martin outscored the Racers in the second half 27-20, but it wasn’t enough as the Skyhawks went only 12-of-25 from the charity stripe on the night.

“I was pleased with the way we were able to hang around and compete tonight,” said Skyhawk head coach Kevin McMillan. “But we also have to be better from the free throw line.

You hate to be close enough where the free shots would have won it for you.”

To open the game UT Martin was able to build a quick 9-5 lead after four different Skyhawks scored to start the game. Murray State battled back with a 5-0 run to move ahead 10-9 with 13 minutes remaining in the half. Lyles connected on a back door play to briefly put the Skyhawks back on top, but Murray responded with a 13-6 run.

The run helped the Racers push their lead out to 26-15 with 6:45 remaining in the half.

Lyles ended the run and pulled the Skyhawk deficit back within single digits when she completed an old-fashion three-point-play with 5:30 left. UT Martin wasn’t able to build much momentum off Lyles’ play though as Murray State closed out the half by pushing its lead out to 15 at 35-20.

In the opening half UT Martin shot only 32 percent from the field, while the Racers were able to connect on 45 percent of their attempts. The Skyhawks also hit only one three-pointer in the first, in comparison to five from Murray State.

The Skyhawks came out of the locker room firing and opened with a 5-0 run, cutting the lead back to 10 at 35-25 on a Weatherly three-pointer with 17:48 remaining. Unfortunately for the Skyhawks though that would be their last field goal for the next 6:41 ticks of the game clock. Over the almost seven minute span the Racers were able to push their lead out to 44-32 before Weatherly ended the scoring slump with another three-pointer.

During the UT Martin scoring draught, the Racers added to their impressive first half three-point shooting stats with a pair from behind the arc; then answered Weatherly’s trey with one from Mariah Robinson to give Murray State its largest lead of the night, 17.

UT Martin began to chip away at the Racer lead from that point, but the Racers were able to push it back out to 17 with four minutes remaining. From that point the Skyhawks held Murray State without a point the rest of the game, while also finding their touch behind the arc. LaBrica Ward and Weatherly connected on back-to-back three-pointers and Lyles added a layup down low but it was too little, too late as time ran out on the Skyhawks comeback effort.

In addition to Weatherly and Lyles’ career nights, Ward added eight points and three rebounds. Murray State won the battle on the glass, pulling down 41 rebounds, compared to 34 for the Skyhawks.

GAME 14

UT Martin at Austin Peay (Jan. 7, 2010 • Nashville, Tenn. • Dunn Center)

UT Martin at Tennessee State (Jan. 9, 2010 • Nashville, Tenn. • Gentry Center)

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team dropped its fourth Ohio Valley Conference game of the season on the road tonight at the hands of the Austin Peay Lady Govs 63-45. The shorthanded Skyhawks had only eight players dressed for the game with Darnisha Lyles sidelined by illness, and had three record double-figure scoring nights with Alecia Weatherly leading all scores with 14 on the night.

The loss drops UT Martin’s record to 2-11 on the year and 0-4 in conference play while Austin Peay, the defending OVC Tournament champion, improved to 4-12 on the season and 3-2 in league play.

Both teams opened the game shooting the ball well and traded the lead back-and-forth over the first 10 minutes. The Skyhawks built a 9-6 edge when Weatherly found LaBrica Ward on a backdoor cut, but the Lady Govs’ Jasmin Rayner responded with five consecutive points to help put Austin Peay back on top 13-9 with 12:50 left in the half.

The Skyhawks then went on a 9-0 run over the next 4:30 to build their largest lead of the half at 18-13. In the run UT Martin used a pair of driving layups by Ward and a threepointer from Cali Cupples to build its lead. Austin Peay ended its nearly five minute scoring drought by mounting a 14-0 run of its own over the next four minutes to move ahead 27-18.

Eight of those points came from Dalilia Thomas in the post for the Lady Govs, who had the advantage with the absence of Lyles from the UT Martin lineup because of illness.

Weatherly ended the Lady Govs run with a fall away jumper at the 3:27 mark, pulling the Skyhawks back within seven at 27-20. Austin Peay was able to close the half though on a 5-0 run and carry a 33-20 advantage into the locker room.

After shooting over 50 percent the first 10 minutes of the half, the Skyhawks finished up shooting only 35 percent after hitting only two of their 11 attempts to close the half.

Weatherly led the way with eight points at the midway point, followed by six from Ward.

Coming out of the locker room Cupples and Paige Smith hit a trio of three-pointers for the Skyhawks to pull within five at 34-29, but Austin Peay answered back with a heavy dose of Nicole Jamen down low. Jamen scored the first nine points of the half for the Lady Govs and helped them hold onto a nine point edge with 1455 remaining.

Austin Peay pushed its lead to double digits at the 12:17 mark with a put back by Thomas, then pushed it to as much as 18 before UT Martin was able to end a three minute scoring drought on an Erica Glisson three-point play. Weatherly followed with a three-point play of her own on the next possession to cut the Lady Govs lead back to 12 with 8:35 remaining but that would be as close as the Skyhawks could pull the rest of the game.

In addition to Weatherly’s game-high 14 points, the Skyhawks also 11 points from Cupples and 10 from Ward. Smith also added seven for the Skyhawks while Glisson chipped in three. Weatherly also led the Skyhawks on the boards with nine rebounds. Despite standing only 5’11 this marked the seventh time this year that the undersized Weatherly has led the Skyhawks in rebounding.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team was unable to overcome 27 turnovers as Tennessee State picked up a 51-38 win Saturday afternoon. Darnisha Lyles led all scorers with 13 points in her return to the lineup after missing the Austin Peay game because of illness, while Cali Cupples added eight.

“I was disappointed in our effort tonight,” said Skyhawk head coach Kevin McMillan. “I feel like we played better Thursday night when we were short staffed than we did today, which led to a number of the turnovers, and you just can’t hand the other team 12-15 extra possessions and expect to compete at this level.”

The loss drops the Skyhawks record to 2-12 on the year and 0-5 in Ohio Valley Conference play.

The loss was also the 29th consecutive conference loss for UT Martin. Tennessee State improved to 6-9 on the season and sits at an even 3-3 in theleague.

Tennessee State was able to gain the upper hand early in the game after UT Martin won the tip the Tigers quickly made a steal and turned it into an easy layup. Lyles answered with a put-back on the offensive end to tie the score at two apiece.

Tennessee State then used a three-pointer from Kesi Hess to spark a 9-0 run and move in front 11-2 only four minutes into the game, forcing a timeout from McMillan. Coming out of that timeout UT Martin answered with another bucket from Lyles in the post and began to chip away at the Tigers lead.

Cali Cupples hit a pair of three-pointers to cut the lead to only five on two occasions then with 6:02 remaining in the half Paige Smith added a three-pointer of her own from the top the key to again cut the Tennessee State lead to five at 21-16. UT Martin was unable to get any closer than five the remainder of the half though as an Oby Okafor layup with 57 seconds left gave the Tigers a seven point edge at 27-20 heading into the locker room.

At the half the Skyhawks were shooting 35 percent but had committed 16 turnovers, which the Tigers converted into 15 points. Cupples led the Skyhawks in scoring in the opening period with eight points, while Smith added five.

The Skyhawks opened the second half by holding the Tigers without a basket the first four minutes of the half, but were unable to capitalize much because of missed opportunities and missed layups. A Lyles jumper cut the lead back to five at 27-22, but when Tennessee State found its shooting touch the used a 5-0 run to push their lead to double-digits for the first time at 33-22 with just over 15 minutes remaining.

UT Martin was able to cut the Tiger lead back to only 10 when Lyles ripped down a rebound and went coast-to-coast for a layup, setting the score at 38-28 with 10:49 remaining. LaBrica Ward then added a layup on the next trip down the floor to cut the lead to only eight.

That was the last time the Skyhawks were within single digits though as Tennessee State responded with a 5-0 run to push their lead back out before eventually setting the final score at 51-38.

For the game UT Martin shot only 34 percent but defensively were able to also hold the Tigers to only 37 percent shooting from the field. A majority of Tennessee State’s points, 26 in fact, came as a direct result of Skyhawk turnovers. In addition to Lyles 13 points, Cupples added her eight first half points, while Smith and Weatherly each chipped in five each.

Tennessee State posted three double-digit scorers, each netting 12 points apiece. Obiageli Okafor added 10 rebounds to her 12 point showing to post a double-double for the Tigers.

GAME 16

UT Martin vs Tennessee Tech (Jan. 14, 2010 • Martin, Tenn. • Skyhawk Arena)

UT Martin vs. Jacksonville State (Jan. 16, 2010 • Martin, Tenn. • Skyhawk Arena)

MARTIN, Tenn. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team snapped its Ohio Valley Conference record 29-game losing streak, thanks to an Alecia Weatherly three-pointer in the closing seconds to down visiting Tennessee Tech 56-52. Weatherly had a team-best and career-high 21 points, including a trio of three-pointers, but none were as important as her bomb from the top of the key to seal the win.

The win also improves the Skyhawks record to 3-12 overall and 1-5 in the OVC, bettering the number of season wins from last year. Tennessee Tech, which is tied with UT Martin as the youngest team in the nation, falls to 7-9 on the year and 2-4 in league action.

UT Martin opened the game with a three-pointer from Cali Cupples, looking to set the pace early. They were unable to do so though because after the first bucket went in, the Skyhawks went cold from the field over the next five minutes. In that time Tennessee Tech was able to build a 9-3 edge, largely off the work of sophomore Tacarra Hayes.

The Skyhawks ended their scoring struggles the same way they began the game, with a three-pointer from Cupples with 13:21 left in the half. UT Martin continued to used the deep shot to chip in to the Golden Eagle lead when Weatherly cut the lead to five at 14-9, with her first three-pointer of the game two minutes later.

Over the next six minutes though, the Skyhawks scored only five points on another Cupples threepointer and a pair of LaBrica Ward free throws, and Tennessee Tech was able to build a double-digit lead at 29-16. Another three-pointer from Weatherly cut the lead back to 10 with 3:20 left in the half then Erica Glisson followed on the next possession with the first two-point field goal of the game when she hit a running jumper at the free throw line.

Glisson then added a pair of free-throw, keeping her perfect from the line on the year, to help the Skyhawks carry only a nine point deficit into the locker room at the half. At the break UT Martin was led by Cupples’ nine points and was shooting only 27 percent from the field.

Coming out of the locker room UT Martin opened with a layup from Glisson then traded baskets with the Golden Eagles before going on a 10-0 run to pull within one at 39-38 with 13:51 remaining. Kylie Cook ended the Golden Eagles scoring drought at 3:37 with a three-pointer to move Tennessee Tech back in front 42-38. Tennessee Tech moved back ahead by five before the Skyhawk again cut the lead to only one with 11:22 on a Ward put back.

UT Martin was unable to move in front because Kellie Cook responded on the other end with a threepointer from the corner for the Golden Eagles. The Skyhawks again cut the lead to only one at 49-48 with just under five minutes left after a pair of back-to-back buckets from Weatherly.

On the next UT Martin possession Cupples was fouled on a three-point attempt then stepped to the line to calming hit all three attempts and give the Skyhawks their first lead since the opening basket of the game at 51-50. Tennessee Tech’s Hayes connected on a jumper with 1:20 remaining to put the Golden Eagles back on top 52-51, along with also giving her a game-high 22 points.

Darnisha Lyles then hit one-of-two free throws to tie the game with one minute remaining before taking a charge on the defensive end to give the ball back to UT Martin. With :22 seconds left and the shot clock running out Weatherly set a screen and as her defender helped off of it she slipped to the top of the key where she connected on the eventual game-winner.

Glisson then sealed the game at the line with a free-throw to set the final score at 56-52. In addition to Weatherly’s 21 points, Cupples finished the night with 12 while Glisson chipped in seven. As a team UT Martin improved its shooting by firing 55 percent from the field in the second half and 40.5 for the game.

On the glass the Skyhawks were out rebounded 35-32, but Lyles was able to pull down a game-high 10 boards. This was the fifth game this year that Lyles has had 10 of more rebounds.

MARTIN, Tenn. - After shooting near 50 percent from the field in the opening half, The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team went cold in the second as it fell to visiting Jacksonville State 63-55. Freshman LaBrica Ward had her best game as a Skyhawk, netting a career and game-high 23 points on 7-12 shooting with a pair of three-pointers.

The loss drops the Skyhawks record on the year to 3-13 and 1-6 in the Ohio Valley Conference.

Jacksonville State picked up its second conference win of the year, improving to 2-5 in league play, and 5-12 overall.

UT Martin was able to set the pace early, hitting their first three shot attempts while building a quick 7-0 lead over the Gamecocks. Cali Cupples started the game with a three-pointer then Alecia Weatherly found a cutting Darnisha Lyles and Cupples on the next two possessions to build the early seven point lead.

Brittany Wiley got the Gamecocks on the board with a three-pointer three minutes into the game and they were able to cut the lead to only two before Cupples connected on a deep threepointer to push the Skyhawks back in front. Jacksonville State then found its shooting touch from the field and hit on back-to-back three-pointers to pull within one at 12-11 with 14 minutes left in the half.

The Gamecocks were then able to continue their hot shooting and took their first lead on a bucket from Danielle Vaughn before building a three point edge at 21-18 with under 10 minutes left in the half. Ward then checked in for UT Martin and connected on a pair of three-pointers and an old-fashion three-point-play to score nine consecutive points for the Skyhawks and put them back on top 27-24.

Jacksonville State continued to shoot the ball well over 50 percent from the field, which helped them rebuild their lead to five with five minutes remaining in the period. To close out the half Weatherly found Cupples cutting to the basket again to pull within three but Jacksonville State was able to pick up a late basket to carry a five point lead into the halftime break.

In the first half UT Martin shot 45 percent from the field and had five three-pointers, but still trailed because the Gamecocks were able to connect on 52 percent of their attempts. Cupples led Skyhawks in scoring at the break with 13 points, while Ward added 12 points off the bench.

To start the second half UT Martin earned its way to the free throw line where Weatherly connected on four free tosses to tie the game at 40 apiece. That would be the last time the Skyhawks would draw the game even though as Jacksonville State’s Brittany Wiley put the Gamecocks on top with a layup, giving them a lead they wouldn’t relinquish the rest of the way.

Jacksonville State pushed its lead to six with 12 minutes remaining before eventually extending it to double figures, and the widest margin of the game, at 56-46 with 5:10 remaining.

Ward scored six of the final nine points for UT Martin down the stretch to set the final score at 63-56.

In the second half UT Martin shot only 25 percent from the field and connected on only one three-pointer. In addition to Ward’s career-high 23 points, Cupples finished with 16 while Weatherly tallied nine points and nine rebounds. As a team the Skyhawks were outrebounded by the Gamecocks 37-29.

UT Martin at Southeast Missouri (Jan. 21, 2010 • Cape Girardeau, Mo. • Show Me Center)

UT Martin at Eastern Illinois (Jan. 23, 2010 • Charleston, Ill. • Lantz Arena)

CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team came back from the program’s lowest scoring half in the shot clock era to pick up a thrilling 49-46 win over Southeast Missouri on the road Thursday night. UT Martin outscored Southeast Missouri 34-19 in the second half, and sealed the win on a driving layup by Paige Smith with only 12 seconds remaining.

The win improves UT Martin’s record to 4-13 on the year and 2-6 in Ohio Valley Conference action.

The win also marked the Skyhawks first win over Southeast Missouri since 2007 and their first win on the Redhawks home floor since 2001. Southeast Missouri falls to 6-11 overall and 3-5 in league play with the loss.

Both teams struggled from the field to open the game, but Cali Cupples was able to net the first basket of the game when she drained a three-pointer with 17:25 on the clock. Southeast Missouri answered back with five consecutive points, until Cupples put the Skyhawks back on top with her second three-pointer of the game.

Southeast Missouri moved back ahead with a three-pointer of her own, only to see Cupples connected on another from three-point range, which gave her the first nine points of the game for the Skyhawks.

Darnisha Lyles added a free throw to put UT Martin up 10-8 at the 10 minute mark, but from that point on the Redhawks were able to mount a 19-2 run over the next nine minutes of play.

The Skyhawks lone bucket during the Southeast Missouri run can on a running jumper from Erica Glisson at the 7 minute mark. Smith connected on the next UT Martin bucket over six minutes later when she drained a three-pointer with 12 seconds remaining to set the score at 27-15 heading into the locker room.

UT Martin’s 15 points in the opening half tied the program record for fewest points scored in a half, which was previously done when the Skyhawks took on No. 6 Tennessee in Knoxville during the 2006-07 season.

At the half UT Martin was shooting only 23 percent from the field and was 4-of-16 from three-point range. Cupples nine points to open the game led all scores at the break, but 13 first half turnovers prevented UT Martin from getting into an offensive rhythm.

To start the second half the Skyhawks were able to control the ball better and it resulted in a 7-2 run to open the half, cutting the Southeast Missouri lead to 29-22 with 15:51 left. Coming out of the first timeout of the half UT Martin continued to roll on the offensive end and used six consecutive points from Alecia Weatherly to tie the game at 31-all with 13:46 remaining.

After being held scoreless in the first half, Weatherly scored seven points in the Skyhawks 14-3 run to open the half and tie the game. Then a pair of Ward free throws put UT Martin back on top for the first time since the 10 minute mark of the first half.

The Redhawks regained the lead on a Bianca Beck three-pointer only to see Cupples again tie the score at 35-35 on a running jumper with 12:10 left. Southeast Missouri again pushed its lead out to five at 40-35 but UT Martin continued to hang around, cutting it to two twice before Weatherly connected on a threepointer with three minutes remaining to tie the game at 46 apiece.

Neither team was able to score over the next two minutes and Southeast Missouri’s Lesley Adams left the door open for UT Martin when she missed a pair of free throws with one minute left in the game. UT Martin capitalized on the following possession when Smith took the ball from the top of the top of the key all the way to the basket for the eventual game-winner with 50 seconds remaining. Southeast Missouri was unable to convert on offense and was forced to foul, allowing Glisson to add a free throw to set the final score at 49-46.

Southeast Missouri 46 • 6-11, 3-5 OVC ##

CHARLESTON, Ill. - With reigning Ohio Valley Conference Newcomer of the Week Alecia Weatherly sidelined by an injury, The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team entered its road showdown against conference leading Eastern Illinois shorthanded. Despite 18 points from freshman LaBrica Ward, the Skyhawks were unable to pull the upset and ultimately fell 74-47.

The loss drops UT Martin’s record to 4-14 on the year and 2-7 in OVC play, while Eastern Illinois extends its current winning streak to seven to stands at 12-8 overall and remains atop the league with a 8-1 conference record.

Paige Smith, Thursday night’s hero against Southeast Missouri, picked up the opening basket of the game for the Skyhawks just as the shot clock expired to help UT Martin build an early 6-2 lead over the Panthers. After the first media timeout though Eastern Illinois found its shooting touch and didn’t look back, while the Skyhawks went cold from the field over the next 12 minutes.

During that stretch Eastern Illinois was able to mount a 16-3 run, with the Skyhawks only points coming from the free throw line. One of those free throws came from junior Adria Greer, playing her first season for UT Martin, to register her first career point. Ward ended the Skyhawks scoring drought with a three-pointer at the 5:27 mark, which also cut the Panthers lead back to single digits at 20-12.

The Panthers were then able to push their lead back out to double figures on a Dominique Sims jumper at the five minute mark and pulled ahead by as much as 14 at 29-15 with one minute remaining in the half. To close out the period UT Martin’s Darnisha Lyles connected on a bucket then Ward capitalized on an Eastern Illinois turnover with a pull up jumper with eight seconds left, cutting the Panther lead to only 29-19 heading into the locker room.

At the half the Skyhawks were shooting only 25 percent from the field with Ward’s eight points leading the way. Eastern Illinois managed only 35 percent shooting from the field, which allowed the Skyhawks to hang around. The Panthers were also held without a three-pointer in the first, despite attempting seven.

The Panthers opened the second half with a Maggie Kloak score down low; then added their first three-pointer of the game as part of an 11-2 run to open the half that put them on top 42-21 with 15:25 left. UT Martin’s lone basket from the field during the Panther run was a Lyles put back, but Smith later answered with a layup to spark a 5-0 Skyhawk run. After a Greer free throw, Lyles capped the UT Martin run with a rebound she pulled down and took coast-to-coast for a layup to pull the Skyhawks back within 42-26 with 13:12 remaining.

Eastern Illinois answered the UT Martin run with an 11-0 run of its own to push its lead back out to 53-28. Glisson then hit a leaning jumper and Cupples added a three-pointer with 8:33 left to keep the Skyhawks within striking distance at 53-31 but Lyles was called for her fifth foul with over eight minutes left in the game, taking away UT Martin’s top rebounding threat.

From that point on Eastern Illinois was able to capitalize on its size advantage down low to eventually finish the night with at 74-47 win.

UT Martin ended the night shooting 32 percent from the field, while the Panthers were able to improve their shooting to 40 percent, thanks to a 15-of-32 effort in the second half. For the Skyhawks, in addition to Ward’s 18 points, Smith finished with nine points, while Glisson added seven points and three assists.

Both Smith and Lyles pulled down eight rebounds apiece, but as a team Eastern Illinois was able to win the battle on the boards 51-31, marking the most rebounds for any Skyhawk opponent this season.

UT Martin at SIU Edwardsville (Jan. 25, 2010 • Edwardsville, Ill. • Vadalabene Center)

UT Martin vs. Murray State (Jan. 30, 2010 • Martin, Tenn. • Skyhawk Arena)

EDWARDSVILLE, Ill. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team went scoreless over the final 5:33 of its road game at SIU Edwardsville and watched its lead evaporate and eventually turn into a 49-46 win for the Cougars Monday night. Despite having four Skyhawks score 10 points each, UT Martin was unable to withstand two lengthily scoring droughts during the game.

The loss drops the Skyhawks record to 4-15 on the year and 2-7 in Ohio Valley Conference play, while SIU Edwardsville picked up its third win in five games and improved to 5-17 on the year.

UT Martin opened the game with a three-pointer and a jumper from OVC Newcomer of the Week Alecia Weatherly to build a quick 5-0 lead over SIU Edwardsville; then extended it to 8-2 when Cali Cupples drained a deep three-pointer to force an early timeout from the Cougars. Coming out of the break UT Martin extended its lead to eight at 10-2 on a pair of free throws from LaBrica Ward, but then the Cougars were able to mount a 20-3 run to move in front 22-13 with 7:30 remaining in the half.

SIU Edwardsville used a heavy dose of Michaela Herrod down low and a pair of three-pointers from Madison Meade and Melia Duncan to go on their run over 10 minutes of game play. Cupples netted the only field goal for UT Martin during the run when Erica Glisson found her on a back door cut to the basket.

After the Cougars moved ahead by their widest margin of the half at 22-13 with 7:30 the Skyhawk defense stepped up and held them without a bucket the remainder of the half. Glisson made a steal in the back court that Ward cleaned up on the glass with a put back to spark the final seven minute run for UT Martin.

Cupples and Glisson again paired up for a back door connection then Ward added four consecutive points to put the Skyhawk back on top 22-21 with 3:39 left in the half. Cupples added her second three-pointer of the half and Darnisha Lyles gave the Skyhawks a 26-22 edge heading in the halftime break.

In the second Herrod made one of two free throws to end the Cougars nearly eight minute scoring drought, but they still remained without a field goal until the 16:55 mark. Lyles extended the UT Martin lead six on an old-fashion three-point-play before a leaning jumper from Weatherly push the Skyhawk lead to its widest margin to that point of nine at 31-23.

Ashley Bey then scored five straight points for the Cougars, in addition to a jumper from Duncan,that helped SIU Edwardsville pull to within only three at 33-30 with 13:24 left. A pair of Lyles put backs and a Glisson free throw helped UT Martin push its lead back out to six at 38-32 by the 10 minute mark.

After Ward pushed the lead to three with a free throw, SIU Edwardsville used a Herrod layup and a steal and score from Duncan to regain the lead 47-46 with 3:13 left. Both teams went cold from the field down the stretch. The Cougars added a pair of Berry free throws with seven seconds remaining to push the lead to three at 49-46 and force a timeout from UT Martin head coach Kevin McMillan to diagram one final play.

Coming out of the timeout LaBrica Ward found a seem down the sideline and drove the ball the length of the court to find an open look at a three-pointer to tie the game. When she let the ball go it looked as if it was on track to tie the game at the buzzer but ultimately rattled off and allowed the Cougars to escape with the win.

MARTIN, Tenn. - Despite temperatures outside in the single digits and a winter storm state of emergency being called for the surrounding area, The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team was able to catch fire from the field and down visiting Murray State 77-65. Helping the Skyhawks pick up the win were a pair of career-high scoring efforts from Cali Cupples and LaBrica Ward.

The win moves the Skyhawks record to 5-15 on the year and 3-7 in Ohio Valley Conference play. The win also matches the team’s most wins overall and in conference since the 2006-07 season when it advanced to the OVC Tournament semi-finals. Murray State falls to 9-12 on the year and 4-6 in league play.

In the first half the Skyhawks shot 50 percent from the field and 75 percent from three-point range, including three three-pointers from Cupples. Cupples finished the half with 11 points, as did Ward to lead the Skyhawks in scoring. Murray State’s top scorer at the half was Kayla Vance with six, but the Racers were very balanced eight players in the scoring column.

In the second half Murray State came out of the locker room and made an immediate run, to cut the Skyhawk lead to only one at 34-33 within the first two minutes of the half. Weatherly ended the Racers 6-0 run with a pair of free throws, then Darnisha Lyles added a three-point play to push the lead back to six at 39-33.

Both teams then traded three-point baskets, leading to Murray State knotting the score at 42-apiece when Kayla Lowe connected on a three-pointer from the top of the key with 14:25 remaining. Murray wasn’t able to take the lead though because Ward took a back door pass from Weatherly to put the Skyahwks back on top on the next possession.

After the Racers answered on the other end with a Rachael Isom jumper to again tie the score, Weatherly put the Skyhawks back on top to stay when she converted a three-point play with 11:30 left in the game. Cupples then added to the UT Martin lead with another threepointer, helping the Skyhawks begin to pull away and eventually move ahead by double digits in the final minutes.

Darnisha Lyles hit six consecutive free throws down the stretch, and was a perfect eight-foreight on the day, to prevent a Racer comeback down the stretch. Cupples added the final points of the day with a pair of free throws in the closing seconds to eventually set the final tally at 75-62.

Lyles perfect night at the charity stripe marked a career-high at the line, while Cupples and Ward also each notched career-best scoring nights. Cupples perfect shooting from three-point land, six-for-six, helped her finish with 22, while Ward matched her career-best effort with 23 points.

Weatherly chipped in 13 points on the night, to go along with a game-high eight rebounds, while Lyles ended with 12 points to give UT Martin four double-digit scorers. As a team the Skyhawks shot a blistering 58 percent from the field and 71 percent from three-point range. They were also 90 percent at the free throw line, missing only three of their 28 atttempts.

Murray State struggled from the field, shooting only 33 percent and were led by Lowe’s 21 point effort. The only other Racer to reach double figures was Isom with 14 points.

UT Martin vs. Austin Peay (Feb. 4, 2010 • Martin, Tenn. • Skyhawk Arena)

UT Martin Tennessee State (Feb. 6, 2010 • Martin, Tenn. • Skyhawk Arena)

MARTIN, Tenn. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team used another hot shooting night, and a career-high 25 points from Alecia Weatherly, to knock off Austin Peay 79-70 at home Thursday night. UT Martin had four double-digit scorers to out shoot the visiting Lady Govs and in addition to Weatherly’s career night, Erica Glisson also added a career-best 12 points in the game.

The win improves UT Martin’s record to 6-15 on the year and 4-7 in Ohio Valley Conference. The win also marks the first time the Skyhawks have won back-to-back games since the 2006-07 season which was also the last time they beat the Lady Govs. Austin Peay falls to 8-15 on the year and 7-5 in league play with the loss.

The Skyhawks opened the game with a three-pointer by LaBrica Ward at the top of the key and never looked back. After Austin Peay answered with a jumper from Whitney Hanley, Ward again connected with another three-pointer and Weatherly added a leaner in the lane to give the Skyhawks an 8-2 lead less than five minutes in.

After the Lady Govs made their second basket of the game at the 15:10 mark, they went cold from the field over the next three minutes. During that time UT Martin continued to shoot the ball very well and put together a 12-0 run. Weatherly and Cali Cupples both drained three-pointers during the run, while Ward also added a layup through traffic in the lane.

Austin Peay ended its scoring drought with three straight buckets from Nicole Jamen to cut the Skyhawk lead to 20-10 with 9:37 left in the half. UT Martin answered with another three-pointer from Cupples which sparked another run for the Skyhawks that saw them extend their lead back to 16 at 26-10 with eight minutes left.

After a Lady Govs basket to cut the lead to 26-12, UT Martin rattled off another eight consecutive points to move ahead by 20 for the first time. Included in the run was another three-pointer from Cupples, her ninth consecutive make from behind the arch dating back to her 6-6 showing against Murray State.

UT Martin went on to close out the half with a 21 point edge at 40-19, marking the most points it has scored in a half this season. The Skyhawks shot 50 percent from the field in the opening half and a blistering 70 percent from three-point range.

At the half Weatherly had 16 points, while Ward added 10 and Cupples registered nine points on her trio of three-pointers. Jamen was the only player for the Lady Govs to score more than three points in the first half with her team-leading 10.

In the second UT Martin picked up where it left off when Weatherly drained a three-pointer to push the Skyhawk lead to 43-19. After Austin Peay answered with a jumper from Jasmine Raymer, Darnisha Lyles put back a rebound to put the Skyhawks back on top by 24, their largest lead of the game.

Austin Peay mounted one more rally though and over the next three minutes went on a 15-2 run to cut the Skyhawk lead to single-digits at 67-58 with 2:31 left. It was the first time the Lady Govs had been within single-digits since the 14:17 point of the first half.

A pair of Ward free throws ended the Lady Govs run and put the Skyhawks back on top by 11 with two minutes remaining. Brooke Faulkner then hit a three-pointer for the Lady Govs with 30 second remaining to cut the lead to eight, but that was as close as Austin Peay could come. Down the stretch Glisson hit five free throws to seal game for the Skyhawks and set the final score at 79-70.

In addition to Weatherly’s game-high 25, Ward also finished the night with 18 points and Smith added 10 to go along with the 12 points Glisson poured in at the free throw line. For the game UT Martin shot 51 percent from the field and 50 percent from three-point range. The Skyhawks also were 27-of-32 at the free throw line, as compared to Austin Peay only going 5-of-9.

UT Martin 79 • 6-15 (4-7 OVC) ##

MARTIN, Tenn. - LaBrica Ward turned in another career-night as The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team outlasted visiting Tennessee State Saturday night for a 60-51 win. Ward netted 25 points to set a new career mark, while also pulling down a career-best 12 rebounds for her first collegiate double-double. Alecia Weatherly added 21 points on the night to give UT Martin its first game this year with multiple 20 point scorers.

The win is the third consecutive for the Skyhawks and improves their record to 7-15 on the year and 5-7 in Ohio Valley Conference play. Tennessee State has now dropped five of its last seven games and sits at 8-14 overall and 5-8 in the league.

For the third consecutive game the Skyhawks opened with a Ward three-pointer on their first possession. The trey helped spark a 12-0 run by UT Martin over the first 4:30 of the game. During the run Weatherly, fresh off a career-best 25 point showing against Austin Peay, drained a pair of three pointers and converted two free throws to score eight consecutive for the Skyhawks.

Tennessee State later used a pair of Stafford free throws to tie the score at 20 apiece with four minutes left in the half. A Darnisha Lyles put back put the Skyhawks back on top and despite the Tigers tying the score two more times, UT Martin was able to carry a 26-24 edge into the locker room after a Weatherly bucket to close the period.

In the first UT Martin’s hot shooting early on cooled off to only 34 percent, but the Skyhawk defense was able to limit Tennessee State to only 25 percent shooting from the field. Ward netted 13 points to lead all scores at the break, while Weatherly added 10.

A pair of free throws from Weatherly was all the Skyhawks could manage the first five minutes of the second half as they came out of the locker room unable to connect from the field. Tennessee State tied the game at 28-28 on a Stafford jumper, but the UT Martin defense was able to prevent the Tigers from moving in front.

Ward connected on the first field goal of the half for the Skyhawks with a three-pointer from the corner with 15 minutes left to put UT Martin back on top 31-28. Three free throws from Ward stretched the lead to four before Stafford responded with a three-pointer for the Tigers to pull them back within one at 34-33 with 12:53 left.

UT Martin held onto its advantage until Kesi Hess hit back-to-back three-pointers during a personal eight point scoring run for the Tigers. Hess’ first three-pointer at the 7:10 mark gave Tennessee State its first lead of the day at 40-38. It was a short-lived lead though as Weatherly converted a three-point play on the Skyhawks next possession to regain the lead.

Hess then hit her second from three-point range at the 6:30 mark to move Tennessee State back in front and spark her teammates from three-point range as well. The Tigers then pushed their lead to its widest margin of the game at 49-43 with back-to-back threes from Jasmin Shuler and Stafford.

After missing her first nine shots of the game, Skyhawk Cali Cupples found her shooting touch late and hit a three-pointer with 3:36 left to pull UT Martin back within two at 49-47. A pair of Ward free throws tied the game and set up Weatherly to put the Skyhawks back on top with her running jumper in the lane with 1:29 left.

Cupples hit her second three-pointer of the game then Ward and Glisson added three free throws to put UT Martin in front 58-49 with 16 seconds left. Tennessee State added a late jumper from Pierce with seven second left, its first since the Stafford three-pointer at the 4:58 mark, before Weatherly set the final score at 60-49 with a free throw to seal it.

UT Martin at Jacksonville State (Feb. 11, 2010 • Jacksonville, Ala. • Pete Mathews Coliseum)

UT Martin at Tennessee Tech (Feb. 13, 2010 • Cookeville, Tenn. • Eblen Center)

JACKSONVILLE, Ala. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team entered Thursday night’s game against Jacksonville State far from full strength as three of the normal starting five suffered from a stomach virus, and LaBrica Ward was forced from the lineup for disciplinary reasons. Despite the setbacks, UT Martin was tied with 1:22 left in the game before the Gamecocks were able to escape with a 56-51 win.

The loss ends UT Martin’s three-game win streak and drops its record to 7-16 on the year and 5-8 in Ohio Valley Conference play. Jacksonville State picked up its second consecutive win and improved to 8-16 overall and 5-8 in the league.

The Skyhawks opened the game with Cali Cupples on the sidelines in street clothes because of the stomach virus and Alecia Weatherly visibly weakened by the same thing after having not practiced Wednesday. Darnisha Lyles also developed similar symptoms and spent a portion of the first half in the locker room receiving treatment.

Paige Smith picked up a majority of the slack left in the lineup early on and opened the game with a driving layup to give the Skyhawks their first lead two minutes into the game. Jacksonville State answered back with four straight points from Danielle Vaughn to gain its first lead of the game at the 16:55 mark.

The Skyhawks scored only 15 points in the first half, which matched the program’s lowest first half effort in the shot clock era, for a second time this season. Earlier this year the Skyhawks notched only 15 points at Southeast Missouri, before battling back for the 39-46 win. In the first half UT Martin shot only 28 percent from the field and hit only one of its eight three-point attempts. Lyles six points led UT Martin at the break, Glisson and Weatherly added four and three points respectively.

Coming out of the locker room UT Martin found its shooting touch from the field. Weatherly and Adria Greer both scored easy layups on the Skyhawks first two possessions, quickly cutting the lead back to single digits at 27-19. The Skyhawks then found a favorable matchup with Lyles in the post and went to her for nine consecutive points over the next six minutes, but were unable to cut the Gamecock lead any smaller than nine at 35-26 with 12:45 left.

At that point Glisson took and elbow and was briefly forced from the game with a bloodied nose. When she returned she quickly got back into the flow of the game and converted a three-point play to pull the Skyhawks within six at 37-31.

UT Martin continued to chip away at the Gamecock lead and used back-to-back three-pointers from Smith and Weatherly to cut the lead to only two with 8:50 left. The following possession Lyles tied the game at 39 apiece at the eight minute mark.

After Jacksonville State answered with a basket, Lyles again came through for the Skyhawks and gave then their first lead since the 18:00 minute mark of the first half when she converted a three-point-play. She then extended the Skyhawks lead to three at 44-41 with 5:35 left.

Jacksonville State battled back to tie the game and eventually regained the lead at 50-49 with 2:45 remaining on a Destiny Lane layup. Weatherly answered with a layup on the Skyhawks next possession, putting them back on top, but it would be the final points of the night for UT Martin.

Down the stretch Jacksonville State went on to hit its free throws, while UT Martin couldn’t get its shots from the field the fall.

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team was not able to overcome the stomach virus that has made its way through the team over the last three days or the hot shooting of Tennessee Tech in an 85-41 road loss. Alecia Weatherly was the only Skyhawk to score in double figures with 14 points as UT Martin suffered its largest defeat of the season.

The loss, which drops the Skyhawks record to 7-17 overall and 5-9 in Ohio Valley Conference play, surpasses the 87-47 setback at now ranked No. 17 Kentucky back in December and marks the largest conference defeat in program history. Tennessee Tech improves to 11-14 overall and 6-9 in league play.

Cali Cupples return to the lineup for UT Martin after being forced to miss the Jacksonville State game because of illness, but the Skyhawks still had five players weakened by the side effects of the stomach virus over the last three days.

Tennessee Tech opened the game shooting the ball extremely well, hitting its first six field goal attempts, including a trio of three-pointers from Kellie Cook, to take a quick 15-2 lead only four minutes into the game. Weatherly, who netted the only Skyhawk basket of the first four minutes, added her second with an up-and-under move in the paint at the 15:20 mark.

In the first half UT Martin shot 43 percent, but had only 16 attempts. In comparison, Tennessee Tech shot 62 percent and hit 18 of its 29 attempts. The Golden Eagles also hit 11 three-pointers in the first half, to score 51 points which is the most given up by a Skyhawks in a half this season.

In the second half UT Martin tried to use back-to-back baskets from Weatherly to spark a run, but the Golden Eagles were able to respond with yet another three-pointer, this one

by Kylie Cook. Cook’s three-pointer started a 13-0 run by the Golden Eagles, to put them on top 66-26 with 12:59 remaining. The run ended with an old-fashion three-point play by Cook and also resulted in the fifth foul of the night for reigning OVC Player and Freshman of the Week LaBrica Ward.

Darnisha Lyles ended the Golden Eagles run with put back under the basket, but it wasn’t enough to spark a comeback effort from the Skyhawks. Tennessee Tech went on to close out the game on a 17-9 run and set the final score at 85-41.

For the game Tennessee Tech shot 48 percent from the field and was 15-29 from threepoint range. The Golden Eagles were led by Kellie Cook’s 20 points Glidden’s 18. UT Martin was led by Weatherly’s 14 points, while Cupples, Glisson and Lyles each added seven points apiece. The Golden Eagles were also able to win the rebounding battle, pulling down 37, compared to only 20 for the Skyhawks.

GAME 25

GAME 26

UT Martin vs. Eastern Illinois (Feb. 18, 2010 • Martin, Tenn. • Skyhawk Arena)

UT Martin vs. Southeast Missouri (Feb. 20, 2010 • Martin, Tenn. • Skyhawk Arena)

MARTIN, Tenn. - The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team had five double digit scorers and shot the ball 59 percent from the field en route to a 71-64 win at home to snap Ohio Valley Conference leader Eastern Illinois’ 13 game win streak. The Skyhawks were paced

by Darnisha Lyles with 19 points and as a team UT Martin hit nine of its 18 three-point attempts.

The win not only snaps the longest winning streak in the conference for Eastern Illinois and drops its record to 18-9 (13-2 OVC), but it was also the Panthers’ first loss of the 2010 calendar year.

UT Martin has now won four of its last six games, improving to 8-17 (6-9 OVC).

UT Martin relied heavily on the three-point shot to take the early lead over the conference leading Panthers. Cali Cupples hit her first two attempts from behind the arc, giving the Skyhawks an early 6-4 lead. LaBrica Ward later added a trey from the top of the key to extend the UT Martin lead to 9-6.

Eastern Illinois answered with a three-pointer by Ashley Thomas to tie the game then moved ahead 13-9 before Smith hit another three-pointer for the Skyhawks. UT Martin then tied the game at 15-15 on an Alecia Weatherly three-pointer with 8:46 left in the half. The Skyhawks first 15 points of the game all came courtesy of the three-point bucket.

At the half UT Martin was shooting 43 percent from the field and 50 percent from three-point range, while limiting the Panthers to only 1-9 shooting from behind the arc. Smith scored eight points in the opening half, while Lyles was held scoreless after getting into foul trouble and playing only five minutes.

In the second half Eastern Illinois picked up a quick turnover and pushed its lead to five. Erica Glisson then answered with back-to-back three-pointers to give UT Martin its first lead since the 16:04 point of the first half. Both team then traded baskets, and the lead, until the 11:47 mark when Lyles hit a layup in the paint. That layup was part of a run by Lyles where she scored 10 of UT Martin’s 12 points over a four minute span.

Cupples hit a free throw to extend UT Martin’s lead to 50-48 with 9:08 remaining then a Ward steal led to an old fashion three-point play by Lyles to push the lead to five. The Skyhawks then answered an Eastern Illinois jumper with a spinning layup by Glisson to beat the shot clock and extend the lead to seven with just over six minutes remaining.

The Skyhawks defense then held Eastern Illinois without a basket from the field over the next 3:30 while converting free throws on the offensive end, while pushing their lead out to its widest margin of 12 at 65-53 with 2:36 remaining.

Ashley Thomas ended the Panthers scoring drought from the field with a jumper, but Lyles answered right back for the Skyhawks on the offensive end. In the closing minute of the game Eastern Illinois was able to hit only one three-point attempt, while UT Martin was able to convert its free throws down the stretch to pick up the 71-64 win.

In addition to Lyles team-high 19 points, Smith added 12 while Glisson and Ward both chipped in 11 points. Weatherly also scored 10 points, giving the Skyhawks five scorers in double figures for the first time this season.

MARTIN, Tenn. - Cali Cupples hit five three-pointers to help lead The University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball team to a 65-43 win over visiting Southeast Missouri Saturday afternoon at Skyhawk Arena. Cupples tied the single-season three-pointers made record in the game, but LaBrica Ward netted a game-high 19 points to lead all scorers to go along with a career-best 15 rebounds.

The five three-point buckets by Cupples gave her 65 on the year, tying the program single-season that was previously set by Tamika Brown during the 1998-99 season. Cupples has already passed Brown for the most three-pointers attempted single-season record this year and has at least two more games to earn sole possession of both records.

The win is the second straight for UT Martin, and its fifth consecutive home win, improving its record to 9-17 overall and 7-9 in Ohio Valley Conference action. It also moved the Skyhawks one game closer to securing a berth in the OVC Tournament for the first time since the 2006-07 season. Southeast Missouri falls to 7-19 on the year and 4-12 in league play.

After having its best shooting game of the season Thursday night, UT Martin opened the game against Southeast Missouri struggling to find its touch. The Redhawks opened up a quick 10-4 lead in the first five minutes, but a Cupples free throw started a 7-0 run for the Skyhawks that saw them take their first lead of the game at 13-10.

After Cupples free throw, Alecia Weatherly scored five consecutive points, then Cupples capped the run with a deep three-pointer from the top of the key with 8:49 remaining in the half. Both teams then traded three-point buckets until Southeast Missouri moved back ahead 19-16 with 5:45 remaining in the half on a Roberts’ trey.

Darnisha Lyles answered with a put back for the Skyhawks, which sparked another run for UT Martin.

This time it was a 9-0 run over the next two minutes to put UT Martin up 25-19. Like the Skyhawk run earlier in the half, Cupples again capped this one as well with a deep three-pointer with 2:34 left before the half.

Southeast Missouri cut the lead to 25-22 with a minute left in the half before Ward scored five consecutive points to close the half. She made a steal in the back court and took it to the basket where she converted a three-point play, then on the next possession was fouled on a last second shot attempt. She converted both free throw attempts to set the UT Martin halftime advantage at 30-22.

At the half Ward led all scorers with 14 points, while Cupples added seven. Despite only shooting 29 percent in the first half, the Skyhawk defense was able to limit Southeast Missouri to only 30 percent shooting in the opening frame.

Southeast Missouri opened the second half with back-to-back baskets to pull within four, but then UT Martin countered with a 9-0 run. Lyles started the run with a put back then Erica Glisson added her lone three-pointer of the game. Smith added a three-pointer with 13:20 left to open up a 13 point lead for the Skyhawks.

Southeast Missouri cut the lead back to single digits with consecutive baskets but then Smith drained her second trey of the game to put UT Martin back up 42-30 with 10:49 remaining. From that point Southeast Missouri would never draw any closer the rest of the game. UT Martin pushed its lead over 20 when Cupples hit her fifth, and record matching, three-pointer of the game with one minute left. Glisson then added a free throw late to set the final score at 65-43.

In the game UT Martin shot 34 percent from the field, while holding Southeast Missouri to only 32 percent shooting. The Skyhawks hit 11 three-pointers in the game, which was a new season high. In addition to Ward’s second career double-double and Cupples 16 points, Weatherly chipped in 14 points of her own.

As a team UT Martin out rebounded Southeast Missouri 44-30, its widest rebounding margin of the year.
