CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. – One day after setting a school record for longest winning streak, the University of Tennessee at Martin tacked on two more victories to that tally today after a 5-0 triumph over Liberty and a 4-1 win over Eastern Kentucky at the Scenic City Showdown.

The Skyhawks (16-6) have now reeled off 10 consecutive victories, having not lost since March 18. UT Martin has won an astonishing 47 of its last 50 head-to-head decisions (.940 winning percentage) during its winning streak.

Once again, all 11 Skyhawks who earned playing time today chalked up at least one victory. Kambree Lucas, Olivia O'Keefe, Lucy Kaufman, Addy Vaughn, Haeleigh Paulino, Jenna Vallée and Kayla Carrell each managed 2-0 records on the day while Dylan Mott, Logan Wallick, Kayla Bryant and Audrey Haworth each contributed one win apiece.

UT Martin's day began with a sweep over the Flames, beginning with a 21-12, 21-13 victory at No. 4 from Paulino/Vallée. At the No. 5 slot, Bryant/Carrell came away with a 21-10, 21-17 win before Lucas/O'Keefe's 21-10, 21-11 triumph at No. 2 officially clinched the match for the Skyhawks. Mott/Wallick secured a gutsy 21-17, 21-18 victory at No. 1 while Kaufman/Vaughn (23-21, 21-11) sealed the sweep out of the No. 3 position.

Squaring off against the Colonels for the second time this season, UT Martin generated a season sweep over its former Ohio Valley Conference rival. Carrell/Haworth teamed up for a 21-15, 25-23 victory at No. 5 while Paulino/Vallée was responsible for a thrilling 21-15, 14-21, 15-10 win at No. 4. For the second time in as many matches, Lucas/O'Keefe made the win official with their clinching 21-18, 21-11 triumph at No. 2. Kaufman/Vaughn added another head-to-head victory at No. 3 (21-11, 23-21) while Mott/Wallick battled throughout but fell 21-19, 21-13 out of the No. 1 slot in the lineup.

The Skyhawks hold their final two home matches of the regular season on Tuesday, April 4 with a pair of matches. UT Martin will host North Alabama at 3 p.m. and Austin Peay at 5 p.m. at the Skyhawk Beach Volleyball Complex.
