MARTIN, Tenn. – The University of Tennessee at Martin beach volleyball squad took care of business on the final day of the Skyhawk Beach Invitational, soaring to victories over Missouri State (3-2) and Ottawa (5-0).

In the process, the Skyhawks improved their season record to 10-3 – already equaling the school mark for single-season victories with at least a dozen matches remaining on the schedule.

Six different Skyhawks went a perfect 2-0 on the day as the No. 1 pair of Dylan Mott/Karen Scanlon, the No. 3 tandem of Haeleigh Paulino/Logan Wallick and the No. 4 duo of Kayla Carrell/Addison Conley were responsible for unblemished days. UT Martin's No. 2 squad of Kambree Lucas/Hannah Phillips and No. 5 pair of Brooke Kuball/Addy Vaughn also capped off their afternoons with victories against Ottawa.

Minutes after Conley, Scanlon and Phillips were honored during a Senior Day ceremony, the Skyhawks dialed up an impressive win over Missouri State. Carrell/Conley got things started with a 21-15, 21-12 win before Kuball/Vaughn narrowly fell 24-22, 21-14 to even up the match at 1-all.

Mott/Scanlon unreeled a 21-14, 21-16 victory, leading to the clinching point after a commanding win from Paulino/Wallick (21-8, 21-11). With the win already secured, the Bears claimed a win at No. 2 as Lucas/Phillips were barely edged 21-15, 21-13.

The Skyhawks then breezed through a sweep of Ottawa to end their two-day tournament with three victories in four tries.

Carrell/Conley once again ignited the momentum with a dominant 21-5, 21-12 win while Kuball/Vaughn gave UT Martin a 2-0 advantage after a 21-17, 21-11 victory.

Mott/Scanlon came away with the clinching point after a remarkable 21-6, 21-11 win before Paulino/Wallick (21-14, 21-10) and Lucas/Phillips (19-21, 21-14, 15-10) completed a successful 48 hours for the Skyhawk program.

UT Martin will now take a well-earned break from official competition, hosting North Alabama for a double dual in its home finale on Wednesday, April 13.
