UT Martin defeated South Carolina by a 21-0 margin in its first game of the day – piecing together its third shutout of the season. The Skyhawks (12-3, 4-2 Mid America West Conference) then battled but fell by a 34-10 margin against league foe Kentucky on its home floor.

Against the Gamecocks, UT Martin got off to a quick start with three points in the first quarter (partner stunts). The Skyhawks followed that with four points in the second quarter (pyramids and tosses) before adding four more points in the third quarter (jumps and tumbling). In the fourth quarter (team routine), UT Martin managed 10 points to cruise to the finish line.

The Skyhawks then took on a Wildcats squad that improved to 24-2 overall while winning their 17^th straight decision inside Historic Memorial Coliseum. UT Martin trailed 5-1 after the partner stunts opening quarter and added another point in the pyramids and tosses second quarter. Two more points were awarded to the Skyhawks during the jumps and tumbling third quarter before UT Martin dialed up six points in the team routine final quarter.
