Down by four at the break, UT Martin outscored Lipscomb, 41-34, in the second half, including holding them to zero field goals for just under eight minutes in the fourth quarter.
The Skyhawks took the lead in the fourth quarter with 7:14 remaining and never let Lipscomb regain it. Tied at 56 with 1:02 to play, the Skyhawks hit five of six free throws and got a fast break bucket from Norah Clark to seal the 63-60 win.
UT Martin outscored the Bisons in the paint, 34-20 and outshot them 42.9-percent to 36.8-percent. The Skyhawks also dominated the glass in the game, outrebounding Lipscomb 38 to 29.
