The Skyhawks enter Saturday's contest with a 10-4 overall mark while sitting 2-1 in the league standings after a strong victory over Murray State on Thursday evening. UT Martin would force the Racers into 22 turnovers in the contest while notching 11 steals. Three different players scored in double figures in the contest behind a big game from senior guard Emanye Robertson who posted a career-high with 24 points, eight assists, five rebounds and two steals against the Racers. With the game, Robertson currently sits with 985 career points and needs just 15 points to become the program's 15th 1,000-point scorer in history.
UT Martin has tallied 240 home victories since 1995, making the friendly confines of the Elam Center a daunting place for visiting teams. During head coach Kevin McMillan's tenure, the Skyhawks have posted a 96-23 record at home for an .807 winning percentage. The Skyhawks have also posted a 67-10 home record against OVC foes during the same span.
