What to Know
The UT Martin Skyhawks have quite the challenge ahead of them as they're expected to be blown off the court. They will square off against the Florida Atlantic Owls at 6 p.m. ET Friday at FAU Arena. UT Martin should still be feeling good after a big win, while Florida Atlantic will be looking to get back in the win column.
The Skyhawks made easy work of the Miami-Hamilton Harriers on Saturday and carried off a 94-66 victory.
Meanwhile, Florida Atlantic was close but no cigar on Tuesday as they fell 68-66 to the Miami (Fla.) Hurricanes. A silver lining for Florida Atlantic was the play of guard Alijah Martin, who had 17 points along with six rebounds.
UT Martin got away with an 82-81 win when the teams previously met five seasons ago. The rematch might be a little tougher for them since the squad won't have home-court advantage. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
