PLAYER TO WATCH
#3 Alex Anderson
Senior Guard
Memphis, Tenn.
Anderson picked
up right where he left
off on Wednesday, as
the star from last year’s
CIT run poured in a
team-high 21 points
at Central Michigan.
The 5-11 sharpshooter
knocked down the goahead trifecta with 45
seconds left and also
sank a pair of clutch
free throws with 15
seconds remaining to
send the Skyhawks
to
their
fourth
postseason victory in
the last two seasons.
Through five postseason games in his career,
Anderson is averaging 18.6 points per outing.
He has connected on a sizzling 57.1 percent of
his three-point field goal attempts, swishing 24
of his 42 attempts from beyond the arc.
SETTING THE STAGE
Four days after dispatching one of the Mid-American Conference cochampions of the West division, the University of Tennessee at Martin men’s
basketball team faces the other MAC West co-champion when it travels to Ball
State in the second round of the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament.
The Skyhawks opened their second straight CIT appearance with a thrilling
76-73 win at Central Michigan on Wednesday. In a game that featured 19 lead
changes, UT Martin led for good after Alex Anderson knocked down a contested
right wing three-pointer for the go-ahead basket with 45 seconds left. Anderson (21
points), Javier Martinez (13) and Jacolby Mobley (11) each scored in double-figures
for the Skyhawks, who shot 54 percent (15-for-28) in the second half.
Wednesday’s victory secured the program’s second straight 20-win season
under head coach Heath Schroyer. It was also the 20th road victory for UT Martin
in the last two seasons, which is tied for the third-most nationally behind only
Monmouth and Albany (22 apiece).
Ball State advanced to the CIT second round after a 78-73 double overtime
win at Ohio Valley Conference member Tennessee State on Tuesday. The trio of
Jeremie Tyler (25 points), Ryan Weber (20 points) and Trey Moses (13 points, 13
rebounds, six assists, three blocks) guided the Cardinals to victory, as Ball State
overcame 31 turnovers and a 17-point first-half deficit.
Ball State is 2-1 against OVC schools this season, defeating Eastern Illinois
(73-56) at home and falling at Eastern Kentucky (89-81) before the win at Tennessee
State. Franko House leads the Cardinals in scoring at 12.3 points per game while
earning All-MAC second team accolades and a spot on the MAC’s All-Defensive
team. Ball State is in the midst of a 13-win turnaround under head coach James
Whitford, who has guided the Cardinals to their first postseason berth since 2002.

seasons under Heath Schroyer, which is a record
for most wins in a two-year span in the school’s

match the school’s all-time record, set from the
1981-82 season through the 1982-83 campaign.
ROAD WARRIORS

Last season, UT Martin led Division-I

came in the Skyhawks’ run to the CIT semifinals.
JOINING OVC POSTSEASON HISTORY

second-highest amount of wins in back-to-back
years in Ohio Valley Conference history. The alltime record is seven by Murray State in 2014 (five

The Skyhawks are the only OVC team to win
a postseason game in 2015 and 2016.
HOWARD JOINS ELITE COMPANY

a single season in UT Martin history.
TAYLOR SUSPENDED INDEFINITELY

team rules.
One of only 18 active NCAA Division-I

the fourth year for divisional play in the OVC).
LENGTHY WINNING STREAKS
The Skyhawks won eight straight games from
Jan. 30 through Feb. 25, which marked the secondlongest win streak in the program’s Division-I
history (since 1992). The winning streak trailed
only the 2008-09 OVC championship team (11
wins in a row) for the school’s longest win streak.
The eight-game winning streak was tied with
Kansas and Lehigh for the second-longest streak
in the nation behind Stephen F. Austin (14).
Earlier this season, UT Martin reeled off seven
straight wins from Dec. 11 through Jan. 7.
BACK-TO-BACK OVERTIME THRILLERS
Twice in as many games, the Skyhawks
battled back from a double-digit second half
deficit to post an overtime victory, as UT Martin
posted wins at Austin Peay (85-84) on Feb. 13 and
against Eastern Illinois (87-84) on Feb. 18.
It marked the first time that the Skyhawks had
played back-to-back overtime contests since Jan.

Jacolby Mobley played the role of hero in the
Skyhawks’ 85-84 overtime win at Austin Peay on
Feb. 13. He pulled up for a 22-foot three-pointer
from the right wing that found nothing but net as
the final buzzer sounded to help UT Martin erase
a 17-point second-half deficit for the win.
That came after Mobley did not miss a single
shot attempt against Austin Peay on Feb. 4, tying
his career-high with 20 points. He was 5-for-5
from the field (including four trifectas) and also
knocked down all six of his attempts from the
charity stripe to lead UT Martin to an 86-77 win.
ACTIVE EDWARDS PLAYS BIG AGAINST SEMO

Dec. 20, 1980.
Edwards’ performance on the glass was the
best by a Skyhawk in the program’s Division-I
history (since 1992) and was tied for the secondmost rebounds in a Division-I game this year.

game 35: BALL STATE • MARCH 20 • WORTHEN ARENA
20-14 OVERALL • 10-6 OVC
head coach heath schroyer
Leading UT Martin to an unprecedented era of success is Heath Schroyer, who was
introduced as the program’s ninth head men’s basketball coach in program history on
March 20, 2014.
This season, Schroyer helped guide the Skyhawks to their first-ever Ohio Valley
Conference West division championship and first-ever OVC Tournament championship
appearance.
UT Martin’s 20 wins in 2015-16 give Schroyer 41 total victories in his Skyhawk head
coaching career, which are the most wins in a two-year span in the program’s Division-I
history (since 1992). This is UT Martin’s second consecutive season where it has qualified
for the postseason, a feat that had not been done since the program took part in the NCAA
Division-II Tournament in 1982 and 1983.
Schroyer’s work at UT Martin has not gone unnoticed on the national level, as he was
identified as one of 10 “Coaches on the Rise” by CBS Sports’ Jon Rothstein in a national
article published in November 2015. Out of the 12 OVC schools, only UT Martin and
traditional league power Belmont have punched their ticket to the postseason in each of
the last two years while the Skyhawks are the only team to win a game in both years.
In his debut season at UT Martin, Schroyer was at the forefront of one of the most
successful seasons in school history in 2014-15, as the Skyhawks finished one win shy (21)
of the school record. UT Martin’s 13-win increase from the previous season was tied for the fourth-best improvement in
the nation as the Skyhawks led all of Division-I with 12 road victories, which was a school record.
UT Martin notched the first three postseason victories in the program’s Division-I history, advancing all the way to
the Final Four of the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament. Out of 345 Division-I members, the Skyhawks were one
of the final 14 teams alive in the hunt for a postseason championship.
After guiding UT Martin to just the second 20-win campaign in the program’s Division-I era, Schroyer was named the
Tennessee Sports Writers Association Men’s Basketball Coach of the Year in 2014-15. He was also one of 16 finalists for the
2015 Hugh Durham National Coach of the Year Award, which honors the nation’s top mid-major coach.
Schroyer, 44, has 20 years of collegiate coaching experience, including nine years as a head coach at the Division-I
level. All seven of Schroyer’s stops at a Division-I institution has culminated in either a conference championship or
postseason play.
Before coming to UT Martin, Schroyer spent three seasons at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas working as the
associate head coach under Dave Rice. The Runnin’ Rebels sported three 20-plus win seasons, a 71-32 overall record
(29-19 against Mountain West Conference opposition) and appearances in the 2012 and 2013 NCAA Tournaments in
Schroyer’s tenure. He was named a top-15 assistant coach in the nation by Bleacher Report in 2012-13 and followed that
with a top-20 assistant coach in the nation honor by College Sports Madness for the 2013-14 campaign.
Schroyer coordinated UNLV’s recruiting efforts since he joined the staff in 2011. The Runnin’ Rebels’ 2012 recruiting
class was ranked No. 7 in the nation by ESPN and one year later, UNLV produced Anthony Bennett - the No. 1 overall
selection by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2013 NBA Draft. Bennett joined Larry Johnson (Charlotte Hornets, 1991) as the
only players in UNLV’s prestigious history be selected first in the NBA Draft.
UNLV knocked off seven nationally ranked teams in Schroyer’s first two seasons, including a win over No. 1 North
Carolina in 2011. That marked UNLV’s first win over the
nation’s
top team in 22 years and the first time a MWC team

head coach heath schroyer
championship in any sport. That season, the Vikings went 19-9 overall with an
11-3 conference slate. The 19 victories were the most for the program since the
1958-59 campaign and occurred a year after he guided Portland State to a topthree turnaround in the nation during his second year.
At Portland State, Schroyer presided over six All-BSC honorees, including
2004-05 BSC Player of the Year Seamus Boxley. He concluded his career as the
program’s fourth all-time leading scorer (1,498 points) and was also named
BSC Defensive Player of the Year in back-to-back seasons (2003-04, 2004-05).
Schroyer then joined Fresno State University as an associate head coach
under Steve Cleveland for two seasons, serving as the Bulldogs’ recruiting
coordinator and overseeing the team’s academic turnaround. Overall, he
coached four All-Western Athletic Conference performers, including NBA
Draft pick Dominic McGuire.
In Schroyer’s last season on the bench at Fresno State (2006-07), the Bulldogs
went 22-10 with a 10-6 WAC record, earning a trip to the National Invitation
Tournament. That marked the most wins for the program since the legendary
Jerry Tarkanian guided the Bulldogs to 22 wins in 1995-96.
Schroyer parlayed that success into a head coaching gig at the University of
Wyoming from 2007-11. During his four-year head coaching stint at Wyoming,
Schroyer coached seven All-MWC players, including Brandon Ewing (second
all-time leading scorer in Cowboy history with 2,168 points) and Afam
Moujeke (2008-09 MWC Freshman of the Year after becoming the league’s alltime leading freshman scorer).
Schroyer’s best season at Wyoming was in 2008-09, when he led the
Cowboys to 19 victories and an appearance in the College Basketball
Invitational postseason tournament. He also helped the program make huge
strides academically, as he inherited the worst Academic Progress Rate (APR)
of any sport in the entire MWC. Schroyer constructed a comprehensive plan that improved the Cowboys’ men’s basketball
APR by 164 points to a program-high 935, which was the third-best turnaround in the nation. He was also a member of
Wyoming’s Academic Integrity Subcommittee in 2010-11.
Before his head coaching appointment at Portland State, Schroyer had previously been an assistant coach at Wyoming
under head coach Steve McClain for the 2001-02 season, when the Cowboys went 22-9 (11-3 MWC) and upset No. 6
Gonzaga in the first round of the NCAA Tournament before falling to Arizona. Schroyer was in charge of a ferocious
defense that led the MWC in field goal percentage defense, defensive rebounding and rebounding margin.
Schroyer’s first Division-I assistant coaching job came at Brigham Young University, who was a member of the
Western Athletic Conference before joining the MWC for Schroyer’s last two seasons there.
Joining a Cougar program that had went 1-25 the season before, Schroyer and Cleveland - the BYU head coach who
Schroyer would also work with at Fresno State almost a decade later - engineered a dramatic turnaround that led to a 4620 record and pair of postseason berths in the final two years. The Cougars went 24-9 overall (10-4 MWC) and made an
NCAA Tournament appearance in 2000-01. The MWC championship in 2000-01 was BYU’s first conference tournament
title since 1992, its first regular-season championship since 1993 and first NCAA Tournament appearance since 1995. The
year before that, the Cougars went 22-11 and advanced to the NIT quarterfinals.
Schroyer presided over six all-conference honorees at BYU, including 2001 MWC Player of the Year and Associated
Press All-American Mekeli Wesley.
In a coaching career that began as an assistant coach under Cleveland at Fresno City College in 1996, Schroyer has
recruited or coached over 60 players who have gone on to play professionally. He has also shared his extensive basketball
knowledge as a television analyst during the 2011 NCAA Tournament coverage on The Mtn Channel and during the 2011
CBI on HDNet. He also served as a television analyst for the Utah Jazz during the 2001 NBA playoffs.
Schroyer started his collegiate playing career at Kings River Community College in Reedley, Calif., where he earned
all-conference accolades and led the team to the California Junior College Final Four in 1992. He concluded his playing
career at Armstrong Atlantic State in Savannah, Ga., where he led the team to the NCAA Division II Sweet 16 as a senior.
Schroyer prepped at the prestigious DeMatha High School program in Hyattsville, Md., where he played for the
legendary coach Morgan Wootten, whose 1,274 wins as a head coach are the second-most in the history of basketball at
any level.
Earning his bachelor’s degree in liberal studies from Armstrong Atlantic State in 1995, Schroyer earned his Master’s
degree in institutional leadership from National University in Fresno, Calif. in 1996.
A native of Walkersville, Md., Schroyer married the former Kim Ortega of Logandale, Nev. in May of 2014. He has
one daughter, Sierra (18) and a son, Hayden (13) from a previous marriage.

MOBLEY SHINES IN DEBUT BUT
UTM FALLS 91-57 IN SEASON
OPENER AT OKLAHOMA STATE
SKYHAWKS COME UP SHORT
IN HOME OPENER, FALLING
86-79 TO BETHUNE-COOKMAN
ANDERSON’S BIG GAME NOT
ENOUGH AS UTM FALLS
70-66 TO ORAL ROBERTS
Newcomer Jacolby Mobley tossed in 19
points off the bench for the UT Martin
men’s basketball team but Oklahoma State
took control midway through the second
half for a 91-57 win in the season opener
for both teams.
Four UT Martin men’s basketball players
reached double-figures in the scoring
column but it wasn’t enough as the visiting
Bethune-Cookman Wildcats used a late
run to post an 86-79 win in the Kathleen
and Tom Elam Center.
Alex Anderson tied a career-high with
seven 3-pointers on his way to a teambest 25 points for the UT Martin men’s
basketball team but the Skyhawks fell
70-66 to Oral Roberts in the Men Against
Breast Cancer Classic.
A 6-0, 160-pound transfer out of
Chattanooga, Mobley sank seven of his 11
shot attempts – including a 3-for-5 effort
from three-point range – and also made a
pair of free throws in 32 minutes. He was
joined in double-figures by Twymond
Howard, who had 12 points and a gamehigh eight rebounds in 24 minutes of play.
The Skyhawks fell behind by 17 points in
the first half before charging forward for a
34-33 halftime advantage. UT Martin led
for nearly 10 minutes in the second half
before Bethune-Cookman went on an 11-0
run to take a lead that it would not concede
the rest of the way.
After managing one made three-pointer in
the season’s first two games while battling
a right ring finger injury that was suffered
during the preseason, Anderson saw seven
of his dozen attempts from three-point

JAMES MADISON, 78-75
TAYLOR’S DOUBLE-DOUBLE
POWERS SKYHAWKS PAST
HARRIS-STOWE, 83-57
For the second straight day, Alex Anderson
was on fire from beyond the three-point arc
but the UT Martin men’s basketball team
could not crawl out of a first-half deficit in
a 69-62 loss to FIU.
Twymond Howard hoisted a three-pointer
from the left wing that found nothing but
net with three seconds remaining to propel
the UT Martin men’s basketball team to its
first win of the season in a 78-75 thriller at
James Madison.
Redshirt senior forward Myles Taylor
accumulated his 15th career double-double
with 21 points and 10 rebounds in only
23 minutes off the bench to help lead the
UT Martin men’s basketball team to an
83-57 victory against Harris-Stowe at the
Kathleen and Tom Elam Center.
After burying seven 3-pointers in the
Skyhawks’ first game of the Men Against
Breast Cancer Classic, Anderson knocked
down a career-high eight trifectas on his
way to a game-high 26 points. Overall, the
senior out of Memphis made nine of his 17
shot attempts, including an 8-for-14 effort
from three-point land in 38 minutes of play.
Kedar Edwards made seven of his nine
field goal attempts for 15 points to go
along with six rebounds for UT Martin.
Twymond Howard added nine points
and six rebounds for the Skyhawks, who
whittled a 42-23 halftime deficit as low as
three points in the second half thanks to a
defensive effort that limited the Panthers to
30.4 percent shooting (7-for-23).
FIU was led by Daviyon Draper’s 19 points
and seven rebounds. Adrian Diaz compiled
17 points, seven rebounds and five blocks
while Ray Rodriguez pitched in with 10
points off the bench for the Panthers, who
turned 20 Skyhawk turnovers into 24
points.
After the 12th tie of the contest occurred
with only 19 seconds remaining, the
Skyhawks put the game on the shoulders of
Howard. He responded with his first threepointer of the season, a 22-foot jumper that
was the game-winning shot.
Chandler Rowe accounted for a careerhigh 14 points while Myles Taylor came
off the bench to score 11 points. Kedar
Edwards tallied nine points and a gamehigh eight rebounds for UT Martin, who
shot a season-best 54.5 percent (30-for-55).
Jacolby Mobley scored a team-high 16
points while Anderson added 12 points on
his way to a spot on the Men Against Breast
Cancer Classic all-tournament team.
James Madison, who returned all five
starters from last season’s Colonial Athletic
Association championship team, was
paced by Ron Curry’s 21 points. Dimitrije
Cabarkapa also added 12 points and six
rebounds off the bench for the Dukes.
Taylor made eight of his 14 shot attempts
and added a perfect 5-for-5 effort from the
charity stripe today. Seven of his 10 boards
were on the offensive end as he helped the
Skyhawks outrebound Harris-Stowe by a
46-25 margin.
Alex Anderson canned three treys on his
way to 13 points while Twymond Howard
tallied 11 points, four rebounds and a
career-best six assists for the Skyhawks.
Kedar Edwards (nine points, eight
rebounds, four steals) and Chandler Rowe
(seven points, six rebounds, three assists)
also posted solid all-around games for UT
Martin.
An NAIA school based out of St. Louis,
Mo., Harris-Stowe was guided by Evan
Johns’ 17 points. Trevor Roberts pitched
in with 14 points for the Hornets, who
committed 17 turnovers.

SKYHAWKS BATTLE
UNTIL THE FINAL BUZZER
BUT FALL 74-70 AT UMKC
TAYLOR COLLECTS
DOUBLE-DOUBLE BUT UTM
FALLS 68-49 AT TEXAS TECH
The UT Martin men’s basketball team
was within three points in the early
stages of the second half at Southeastern
Conference opponent Mississippi State but
the Bulldogs took advantage of a lengthy
run in a 76-51 Skyhawk loss at Humphrey
Coliseum.
Twymond Howard and Richard Lee each
eclipsed the 20-point mark for the UT
Martin men’s basketball team but UMKC
protected its home floor with a 74-70 win at
Municipal Auditorium.
Myles Taylor piled up his 16th career
double-double this evening but the UT
Martin men’s basketball team couldn’t
shake off a slow start in a 68-49 loss at Big
12 power Texas Tech.
The Skyhawks held a 40-37 halftime lead
before UMKC took a 10-point advantage
with a little over seven minutes to play
in the game. UT Martin then buckled
down defensively, holding the Kangaroos
without a field goal for over five minutes
while cutting its deficit to one point with
90 seconds remaining. However, UMKC
was able to hang on for the win after two
Skyhawk turnovers down the stretch.
Taylor tossed in a team-best 14 points to
go along with a game-high 10 rebounds
for the Skyhawks. The redshirt senior out
of Little Rock, Ark. made six of his eight
shot attempts, adding two free throws to
go along with a season-high three blocks in
only 24 minutes of action.
Chandler Rowe converted a basket with
15:52 remaining to get UT Martin within
three points at 38-35. However, the
Skyhawks would miss their next 10 shots in
addition to committing five turnovers over
the next 6:08, as Mississippi State scored 18
unanswered points to open up a wide lead
that UT Martin could not battle back from.
Myles Taylor and Richard Lee shared the
Skyhawk team lead with 11 points. Taylor
added a team-best six rebounds while
Twymond Howard compiled 10 points,
three rebounds, three assists and a careerhigh three blocks for UT Martin.
Mississippi State was led by Gavin Ware’s
22 points and 10 rebounds. Quinnary
Weatherspoon chipped in 16 points off
the bench while IJ Ready added 10 points
for the Bulldogs, who were limited to 22.2
percent shooting (4-for-18) from threepoint range but shot 56.3 percent (18-for32) in the second half.
Twymond Howard scored 22 points (one
shy of his career-high) while grabbing a
game-high seven rebounds for UT Martin.
He was joined in double-figures by Richard
Lee, who went off for a career-high 21
points on 8-of-11 shooting, including four
3-pointers. Howard and Lee become the
first pair of Skyhawk teammates to each
score 20 or more points in a single game
since Alex Anderson (30) and Deville Smith
(21) on March 19, 2015.
UMKC was guided by 24 points out of
Martez Harrison while LaVell Boyd (16),
Darnell Tillman (11) and Broderick Newbill
(10) also reached double-figures in scoring.
Richard Lee also tallied 12 points courtesy
of four 3-pointers for UT Martin, who
outscored the Red Raiders by a 33-29
margin in the second half.
Texas Tech was paced by 20 points by
Toddrick Gotcher while Justin Gray
pitched in with 15 points. The Red Raiders
– whose only early loss on the season
came to No. 16 Utah – turned 17 Skyhawk
turnovers into 18 points on the night.

AT SAINT LOUIS
SENIOR FORWARD DUO SPARKS
SKYHAWKS TO 74-70 HOME WIN
OVER ARKANSAS STATE
The UT Martin men’s basketball team
led for over 34 minutes of clock time and
overcame a late deficit with a lengthy
defensive stand that lifted the Skyhawks
to a 72-64 victory at UT Rio Grande Valley.
Five UT Martin players scored at least 13
points as the Skyhawk men’s basketball
team posted an impressive 82-76
nonconference road victory over Saint
Louis at Chaifetz Arena.
UT Martin senior forwards Twymond
Howard and Myles Taylor each recorded a
double-double to aid the Skyhawks to a 7470 home victory against Arkansas State at
the Kathleen and Tom Elam Center.
UT Martin found itself down by a 59-58
margin with 6:20 to play – its first deficit
since the opening basket of the game. The
Skyhawks then held UT Rio Grande Valley
scoreless over the next 4:25, outscoring
the Vaqueros by a 9-0 margin during that
stretch as part of a game-ending 14-5 run.
Playing without its leading scorer
Twymond Howard, who missed the
trip with an illness, UT Martin boasted
a balanced scoring attack. Richard Lee
scored 19 points aided by a perfect 5-for-5
shooting performance while Myles Taylor
and Jacolby Mobley each scored 17 points
for the Skyhawks, who led by as many as
23 points in the second half before staving
off a potential Billiken rally.
After missing the team’s last game with
an illness, Howard came off the bench
to secure game-highs of 19 points and 12
rebounds for his seventh double-double in
under two seasons as a Skyhawk. Taylor
accumulated 15 points and 10 rebounds
for his 17th career double-double in a
UT Martin uniform. The duo helped the
Skyhawks grab 22 offensive rebounds as a
team, marking the first time that UT Martin
had hauled in 20 or more offensive boards
in a game since it accomplished the feat
against Austin Peay on Jan. 5, 2013.
Twymond Howard led the way for UT
Martin with 16 points and 12 rebounds for
his first double-double of the season. His
pair of free throws at the 4:09 mark gave
UT Martin a lead it would not relinquish
the rest of the way while he also finished
one rebound shy of his career-high of 13
boards set last year at Eastern Illinois.
The Skyhawks were also led by Richard
Lee (16 points) and Jacolby Mobley (15),
who combined to sink 14 of their 21 shots.
Shaquille Hines and JJ Thompson shared
the team lead with 17 points for UT Rio
Grande Valley. Dakota Slaughter also
scored 13 points for the Vaqueros, who
shot 36.7 percent (22-for-60).
Alex Anderson compiled 16 points while
Kedar Edwards posted his first career
double-double (13 points, 11 rebounds)
to help guide UT Martin to its first win in
the series over the traditional Atlantic 10
powerhouse since Nov. 22, 2002.
Miles Reynolds scored 19 points to pace
Saint Louis, who also received 10 points
and 13 rebounds out of Malik Yarbrough.
Mike Crawford (12 points) and Davell
Roby (11) also scored in double-digits for
the Billikens, who were held to 38.3 percent
(23-for-60) shooting.
Jacolby Mobley also added 12 points
while Alex Anderson tossed in 10 points
– including four clutch free throws in the
final 13 seconds of the contest.
Arkansas State was led by Nouhoum
Bocoum’s 16 points and nine rebounds
off the bench. Donte Thomas (15 points),
Anthony Livingston (13) and Sean Gardner
(12) also scored in double-figures for the
Red Wolves, who were forced into 18
turnovers while shooting 27.3 percent (6for-22) from three-point range.

SKYHAWKS EXTEND WIN
STREAK TO FIVE WITH
57-48 VICTORY AT FAU
UTM LIGHTS UP SCOREBOARD
IN 122-60 WIN OVER
BOYCE COLLEGE
A swarming UT Martin defense held its
first opponent under 50 points this season
as the Skyhawks cruised to a 70-47 victory
over Alcorn State at the Kathleen and Tom
Elam Center.
The UT Martin men’s basketball team
relied on its staunch defense once again,
posting a stirring 57-48 victory at Florida
Atlantic out of Conference USA.
The UT Martin men’s basketball team
extended its winning streak to six games
after a 122-60 triumph over Boyce College
at the Kathleen and Tom Elam Center.
UT Martin rolled to its fourth consecutive
victory behind a defense that limited the
visiting Braves to just 25.9 percent shooting
(14-for-54) for the game, including an 11.1
percent (2-for-18) effort from beyond the
three-point arc. The Skyhawks’ previous
season-low in points allowed was 57
against Harris-Stowe on Nov. 25. The fourgame winning streak is the longest for the
program since Jan. 15-24, 2011.
The win was the fifth in a row for the
Skyhawks. Eight days after holding
Alcorn State to a season-low 47 points, UT
Martin’s defense once again rose to the
occasion, limiting Florida Atlantic to 32.1
percent shooting (18-for-56), including 19
percent (4-for-21) from three-point range.
As a result, the Skyhawks grounded their
opponent to under 50 points in back-toback games for the first time since the 198182 season.
The Skyhawks equaled a school record
with 16 three-pointers. UT Martin also
dialed up 16 treys during last season’s 10479 victory at Northwestern State in the first
round of the CIT. Overall, UT Martin shot
56.4 percent (44-for-78) with a season-best
26 assists.
Jacolby Mobley jumpstarted UT Martin
offensively, scoring all of his game-high 16
points in the first half. Myles Taylor battled
foul trouble but still added 11 points in 14
minutes while Twymond Howard (gamebest 11 rebounds), Kedar Edwards (gamehigh six assists) and Javier Martinez (nine
points, nine rebounds in 12 minutes) also
paced the Skyhawks.
Twymond Howard and Myles Taylor
shared the team lead in scoring with 19
points each. Howard added 10 rebounds
for his third double-double in the last
four games and eighth of his two-year
career at UT Martin. Taylor also grabbed
nine rebounds while Kedar Edwards (10
rebounds, game-high three steals) also
helped direct the Skyhawks to victory.
Alcorn State was guided by Tyrel Hunt
and Reginald Johnson, who each scored
nine points off the bench. Octavious Brown
added 10 rebounds for the Braves, who
committed 15 turnovers for the contest.
Florida Atlantic was paced by Adonis
Filer’s 17 points. Jeantal Cylla (12 points)
and Ronald Delph (12 rebounds) also
guided the Owls, who committed nine of
their 14 turnovers in the second half.
Six Skyhawks reached double-figures in
the scoring column for the first time since
Jan. 13, 2014. Alex Anderson led the way
with 18 points while Richard Lee and
Chandler Rowe each contributed 14 points
apiece. Kedar Edwards (13 points), James
Harrison (13) and Fatodd Lewis (11) also
reached double-digits while Myles Taylor
added a game-high nine rebounds and
Jalen Variste accumulated game-highs of
11 assists and six steals.
Boyce College, a National Christian
College Athletic Association school based
out of Louisville, Ky., was led by Drew
McKay’s 12 points. Maxx Katzbeck and
Mike Jones also recorded 11 points apiece
but UT Martin amassed 19 steals on 21
Bulldog turnovers.

SLINGSHOTS SKYHAWKS
PAST TENNESSEE TECH, 96-90
The UT Martin men’s basketball team led
for nearly 36 minutes of clock time but it
took some late game heroics by Twymond
Howard to lead the Skyhawks to a thrilling
78-70 win in their Ohio Valley Conference
opener at Eastern Kentucky.
Twymond Howard registered game-highs
of 22 points and 14 rebounds but the UT
Martin men’s basketball team saw its
seven-game winning streak come to a close
in a 64-58 loss at Morehead State.
Five UT Martin men’s basketball players
poured in at least 15 points as the Skyhawks
overcame a 13-point deficit to claim a
big 96-90 home victory over Ohio Valley
Conference foe Tennessee Tech.
UT Martin led by 10 points at the halftime
break but found itself down by two points
with 6:41 remaining – its first deficit of the
game. The Skyhawks then rode Howard’s
shoulders to the finish line, as the senior
out of Pearl, Miss. pumped in eight of UT
Martin’s next 11 points down the stretch for
the Skyhawks, who notched the program’s
first OVC-opening road victory since the
1998-99 season.
Howard finished just one point shy of his
career-high scoring total while he also

the Skyhawks dropped an 82-74 decision
at Ohio Valley Conference rival Eastern
Illinois.
Alex Anderson scored a team-high 20
points – including seven of his team’s final
eight points of the game – to help lift the
UT Martin men’s basketball team to a 63-59
victory over Ohio Valley Conference rival

For the third time this season, five UT
Martin players scored in double-figures
to propel the Skyhawk men’s basketball
team to an 86-77 triumph over Ohio
Valley Conference rival Austin Peay at the
Kathleen and Tom Elam Center.
Anderson did most of his late damage
from the charity stripe, as the senior
guard swished all seven of his free throw
attempts in the final 2:53. He added four
assists in addition to his seventh 20-plus
point outing in less than two seasons as a
Skyhawk.
Jacolby Mobley led all scorers, tying a
career-high with 20 points in only 26
minutes off the bench for UT Martin.
Mobley boasted a perfect shooting night,
canning all five of his field goal attempts
(including four trifectas) while draining all
six of his shots from the charity stripe.
Twymond Howard compiled 19 points
while Kedar Edwards wrapped up his
third double-double of the season with 12
points, 11 rebounds and four assists for
UT Martin, who defeated the Racers in the
Kathleen and Tom Elam Center for the first
time since Jan. 5, 2009.
Myles Taylor collected 19 points while
Twymond Howard and Alex Anderson
each added 17 points for the Skyhawks.
Kedar Edwards rounded out the doubledigit scorers with 11 points to go along with
a career-best 15 rebounds, three assists and
three steals for the third double-double in
his last four games.
In a contest that featured 17 lead changes
and 13 ties, UT Martin led with five minutes
to play before the Panthers concluded the
game on a 14-3 run.
Twymond Howard registered 14 points,
five rebounds and four assists for the
Skyhawks. Javier Martinez tallied 12
points on a perfect 6-for-6 shooting in 20
minutes off the bench while Myles Taylor
(11) and Alex Anderson (10) also reached
double-figures in the scoring column for
UT Martin, who shot an even 50 percent
(29-of-58) from the field.
Eastern Illinois was paced by Demetrius
McReynolds’ 27 points – 18 of which came
in a seven-minute span in the second half.
Cornell Johnston piled up 18 points while
Trae Anderson chipped in with 17 points
for the Panthers, who hit 12 three-pointers
and committed only seven turnovers.
Murray State was led by Jeffery Moss’
game-high 22 points and eight rebounds.
Moss was the only Racer to crack doublefigures in the scoring column, as he piled
up six of the team’s 10 three-pointers.
Austin Peay was guided by Josh Robinson
and Kenny Jones, who both scored 16
points. Chris Horton compiled 15 points
and 11 rebounds while Jared Savage
tossed in 14 points for the Governors, who
held a 35-34 halftime advantage but were
outscored 52-42 in the game’s final 20
minutes.

Twymond Howard equaled a careerhigh in scoring as the UT Martin men’s
basketball team posted a 79-62 win over
SIU Edwardsville at the Vadalabene Center.
Junior forward Kedar Edwards continued
his recent string of double-doubles as the
UT Martin men’s basketball team muscled
its way to a 77-64 Ohio Valley Conference
win over Southeast Missouri in the
Kathleen and Tom Elam Center.
Overtime heroics from junior guard Jacolby
Mobley propelled the UT Martin men’s
basketball team to its biggest comeback victory
of the season, an 85-84 instant classic at Ohio
Valley Conference West rival Austin Peay.
Howard amassed 23 points for the third
time in his two-year Skyhawk career,
converting nine of his 13 field goal
attempts. The senior out of Pearl, Miss.
added six rebounds, two assists and a steal
in 33 minutes of play for UT Martin, who
won its third straight league game.
Myles Taylor shot 5-of-6 from the floor on
his way to 17 points while the Skyhawks
also received another double-double (10
points, 11 rebounds) out of Kedar Edwards
– his fourth in the last five games. Overall,
UT Martin shot a season-high 60.8 percent
(31-for-51) from the floor, jumping out to
an 11-0 lead and never looking back.
SIU Edwardsville was paced by Jake
Newton’s 15 points – all of which came in
the first half. Burak Eslik (13 points) and
Keenan Simmons (10) also cracked doublefigures in the scoring column for the
Cougars, who were limited to 20 percent
(2-for-10) shooting from three-point range
in the second half.
Edwards became the first Skyhawk since
1980 to grab at least 20 rebounds in a game,
hauling in 21 boards to go along with 10
points, three assists, three steals and two
blocks in 36 minutes of action. He earned
his fifth double-double in the past six
games while also corralling the secondmost rebounds in a single game in the
Division-I ranks so far this season.
Twymond Howard accumulated teamhighs of 19 points and five assists for UT
Martin, who won its fourth straight league
game for the first time since Jan. 15-24,
2011. Jacolby Mobley added 15 points off
the bench while Alex Anderson chipped
in with 14 points for the Skyhawks, who
outrebounded Southeast Missouri by a 4435 margin.
Southeast Missouri received 19 points
and eight rebounds out of Isiah Jones
while Antonius Cleveland (16) and Jamaal
Calvin (12) also scored in double-digits.
The Redhawks were held to 40.4 percent
(21-for-52) shooting from the floor and
committed 16 turnovers.
The Skyhawks trailed by four points with
under a minute to go in regulation before
forcing overtime. UT Martin found itself in a
similar position – down four with 58 seconds to
go in the extra period – before Mobley played
the role of hero.
The Skyhawks trailed by a point before
sending Austin Peay’s leading scorer Chris
Horton to the free throw line with five seconds
remaining. Horton’s first attempt was true but
he missed his second shot. Twymond Howard
hauled in his 10th rebound of the contest
and dribbled past halfcourt before finding a
streaking Mobley on the right wing. Mobley
let it fly from 22 feet away and the shot found
nothing but net as the final horn sounded.
Mobley ended his night with 18 enormous
points in 30 minutes off the bench. Howard
(final four points of regulation) and Anderson
(six 3-pointers) also added 20 points apiece
while Myles Taylor narrowly missed a doubledouble with 11 points and nine rebounds for
UT Martin, who won its fifth straight OVC
game for the first time since the 2008-09 season.
Austin Peay received double-doubles out of
both Horton (19 points, 11 rebounds) and
Kenny Jones (18 points, 10 rebounds). Josh
Robinson added 18 points while Khalil Davis
compiled 11 points for the Governors, who

SENIORS GO OUT IN STYLE AS
UTM WINS EIGHTH STRAIGHT,
72-56 OVER TENNESSEE STATE
For the second straight game, the UTMartin
overcame a double-digit second half deficit
to post a thrilling overtime victory, as the
Skyhawks defeated Eastern Illinois by an 87-84
margin at the Kathleen and Tom Elam Center.
Redshirt senior Myles Taylor compiled
22 points and a season-high 13 rebounds
for the UT Martin men’s basketball team
as the Skyhawks extended their Ohio
Valley Conference winning streak to seven
games in a 68-51 home victory over SIU
Edwardsville.
The UT Martin men’s basketball team
pulled away in the second half to post its
eighth consecutive Ohio Valley Conference
victory with a 72-56 triumph over
Tennessee State on Senior Night.
With the win, UT Martin accumulated its sixth
straight conference win and moves into a tie
for first place in the OVC West standings. The
result marked the first time that the Skyhawks
won back-to-back overtime games since Cal
Luther’s squad accomplished the feat on Jan.
13 and Jan. 15, 1998.
UT Martin’s frontcourt duo of Twymond
Howard and Myles Taylor helped the
Skyhawks erase an 11-point deficit with 15:37
left in regulation. Howard racked up his 12th
career double-double (career-high 29 points
and 12 rebounds) while Taylor was responsible
for his 18th career double-double (season-best
23 points, 11 rebounds).
A 6-7, 235-pound forward out of Little
Rock, Ark., Taylor snared his fifth doubledouble of the season and the 19th of his
illustrious Skyhawk career. He made 10
of his 16 field goal attempts and was a
perfect 2-for-2 from the charity stripe for
UT Martin, who stays atop the OVC West
standings alongside Murray State heading
into the final week of the regular season.
Terrence Durham more than doubled his
previous career-high with 13 points for the
Skyhawks, who sank 85.7 percent (24-for-28) of
their free throw attempts.
The Skyhawks also received 14 points
apiece out of Twymond Howard and
Jacolby Mobley. Howard chipped in with a
game-high six assists while Kedar Edwards
grabbed 11 rebounds for UT Martin, who
trailed by a 29-27 margin at the halftime
break.
Eastern Illinois was guided by Cornell
Johnston’s double-double of 12 points and
10 assists. Trae Anderson and Demetrius
McReynolds each scored 19 points while Casey
Teson (16 points) rounded out the double-digit
scorers for the Panthers, who shot 51.7 percent
(15-for-29) from three-point land.
Carlos Anderson’s 17 points topped SIU
Edwardsville in scoring. Jake Newton
and Jalen Henry scored 12 and 10 points,
respectively, off the bench for the Cougars,
who were held to 37.3 percent (22-for-59)
shooting.
The win, combined with a Murray State
loss at Eastern Illinois, means that the
Skyhawks have clinched at least a share
of their first-ever OVC West division
championship. UT Martin will enter next
week’s OVC Tournament as the No. 2 seed
with an automatic berth into the semifinals.
Following a pregame Senior Night
ceremony honoring Skyhawk seniors Alex
Anderson, Terrence Durham, Twymond
Howard and Myles Taylor, UT Martin put
on one of its best second-half performances
of the season. Howard scored a game-high
19 points to lead UT Martin while Myles
Taylor compiled 15 points and a gamehigh seven rebounds. The Skyhawks also
received a big lift from the backcourt duo
of Jacolby Mobley and Jalen Variste, who
each scored 10 points off the bench.
Tahjere McCall scored 16 points to go along
with a game-high four assists for Tennessee
State. The Tigers led by as many as eight
points in the first half but were 0-for-10
from three-point range in the second half.

Eagles by an 83-70 margin at Municipal
Auditorium.
History would not be on the side of the
UT Martin men’s basketball team as the
Skyhawks fell victim to red-hot No. 8 seed
Austin Peay, 83-73, in the Ohio Valley
Conference Championship game.
Despite the loss, the Skyhawks earn the No.
2 seed in the OVC Tournament. UT Martin
and Murray State finish the regular season
as co-champions of the OVC West division
but the Skyhawks earn the automatic berth
into the league semifinals because of a
tiebreaker.
Myles Taylor led UT Martin in scoring (18
points) and rebounding (seven) tonight.
Jacolby Mobley also added 15 points off
the bench for the Skyhawks, who shot 40.4
percent (19-for-47) from the field.
Murray State was guided by Jeffery Moss’
33 points, aided by an 8-of-11 performance
from three-point land. Wayne Langston (17
points) and Bryce Jones (10) also cracked
double-figures for the Racers, who shot
54.5 percent (12-for-22) from beyond the
three-point arc.
With the semifinals victory, the No. 2 seed
Skyhawks will play for their first-ever OVC
championship and accompanying NCAA
Tournament bid on Saturday, March 5 at
5 p.m. against eighth-seeded Austin Peay.
UT Martin won thanks to a swarming
defensive effort. The Skyhawks swatted
away a team-high 10 blocks while limiting
the Eagles to 35.7 percent shooting (25-for70) for the contest.
Jacolby Mobley scored a career-high 22
points and a game-high five assists off
the bench for UT Martin while Twymond
Howard secured his 13th career doubledouble with 21 points and 10 rebounds.
Kedar Edwards (13 points, nine rebounds)
and Alex Anderson (13 points) also reached
double-figures in the scoring column
for the Skyhawks, who shot 56.5 percent
(26-for-46) from the floor and won the
rebounding battle by a 42-30 margin.
Morehead State received 15 points out of
Brent Arrington while Corban Collins and
Lyonell Gaines scored 12 and 10 points,
respectively.
The Skyhawks could not top an Austin
Peay squad which made OVC history
by becoming the first No. 8 seed to win
an OVC Championship crown. Despite
playing their fourth contest in as many
days, the Governors showed no sign of
exhaustion, shooting 49.1 percent from the
floor while knocking down a season-high
16 three-point attempts.
Twymond Howard scored 24 points to
go along with five rebounds, five assists
and four steals on his way to OVC AllTournament honors. Jacolby Mobley (15
points) and Alex Anderson (14 points)
also reached double-figures in the scoring
column while Kedar Edwards hauled in
a game-high 10 rebounds for UT Martin,
who was making a bid for its first-ever
NCAA Tournament appearance at the
Division-I level.
Austin Peay placed four players in doubledigits scoring, led by Jared Savage’s 24
points on eight 3-pointers. Josh Robinson
(20), Khalil Davis (14) and John Murry
(11) also scored in double-figures for the
Governors.
