MARTIN, Tenn. – The University of Tennessee at Martin women's basketball team remained unbeaten in the Kathleen and Tom Elam Center with a 108-82 victory against Division II foe Christian Brothers on Monday afternoon in front of a rowdy crowd of local students.

The Skyhawks improved to 4-1 in on the season with a strong showing in the program's annual kid game in front of over 4,000 local students and fans. UT Martin would force 32 turnovers on the day while notching 25 steals. With the high turnover total, the Skyhawks would turn those 32 turnovers into 37 points while scoring 56 of the team's points in the paint.

"I think the kids had fun and that's kind of what today is about," UT Martin head coach Kevin McMillan said. "We want them to be able to blow off a little steam and give the teachers a break. This is a chance for our program to dedicate a day to the students, get them on campus and show them a little bit about what being a college student-athlete is like. I hope that our players set a standard for them and all the kids had a good time."

UT Martin was led offensively by the play of junior forward Aundrea Adams with 21 points for the second straight contest while notching a season-high six rebounds. Three other Skyhawks scored in double figures while notching career-highs as freshman Damiah Griffin tallied 17 points and six rebounds while Kyannah Grant (14 points) and Brittni Moore (11 points) rounded out the quartet.

For Christian Brothers the game served as an exhibition contest. While the turnovers were high, the Lady Bucs competed throughout the contest to outscore the Skyhawks in the fourth quarter. Kayla Freeman tallied a team-high 19 points for the Lady Bucs off the bench while Brynne Lytle (16 points) and Kelsey Adkins (13 points) also scored in double figures.

UT Martin will hit the road for its next four contests, including a matchup at Big Ten foe Northwestern on Sunday, Nov. 25. Tipoff from Welsh-Ryan Arena is scheduled for 2 p.m.
