Howard is currently playing through his best stretch of the season, as he has averaged 18.0 points while shooting 65.4 percent (17-for-26) in the last three games. Included in that spurt is a dominant effort against Eastern Illinois on Thursday, as the 2014 junior college All-American tallied 22 points and 12 rebounds for his third doubledouble of the season. He sank all 10 of his free throw attempts, becoming just the fourth Skyhawk in the last eight years to sink at least 10 free throws in a game without a single miss. The 6-6, 210-pound swingman currently ranks third in the OVC in minutes played (34.5 per game) and seventh in rebounding (6.5 per game). SETTING THE STAGE The top two teams in the Ohio Valley Conference West standings will clash when the University of Tennessee at Martin men’s basketball team makes the short trek to Murray State. The Skyhawks have won five of their last six contests and are off to their best OVC start since the 1999-2000 campaign. With a win against the Racers, UT Martin can improve to 6-2 in league play for the first time in program history. UT Martin is coming off an impressive 81-51 victory over Eastern Illinois on Thursday, the program’s first 30-point OVC win since 1997. Twymond Howard (22 points, 12 rebounds) and Marshun Newell (15 points, 11 rebounds) each registered double-doubles for the Skyhawks, who shot a season-high 60.9 percent. Murray State outlasted Eastern Kentucky by an 85-78 margin in overtime on Thursday for its 16th straight win, the third-longest streak in the nation behind No. 1 Kentucky and No. 2 Virginia. OVC scoring leader Cameron Payne compiled 21 points, 10 rebounds, five assists and six steals for the Racers, who also received a double-double out of Jarvis Williams (17 points, 11 rebounds). #24 Deville Smith G, 6-0, 175, Sr. 14.5 PPG, 3.6 RPG, 4.6 APG, 1.9 SPG #25 Marshun Newell G, 6-3, 195, R-Sr. 12.2 PPG, 6.3 RPG, 3.1 APG, 1.0 SPG #30 Twymond Howard F, 6-6, 210, Jr. 13.5 PPG, 6.5 RPG, 1.7 APG, 0.8 SPG #40 Javier Martinez F, 6-7, 210, So. 5.6 PPG, 3.7 RPG, 0.2 APG, 0.2 SPG GAME 21: MURRAY STATE • JAN. 31 • CFSB CENTER 13-7 OVERALL • 5-2 OVC TEAM PHOTO/ ROSTER Front (L to R): Deville Smith, Alex Anderson, Harrison Hawks, CJ Davis, Khristian Taylor, Dee Oldham (no longer with team), Marshun Newell.

CONVINCING WIN OVER EASTERN ILLINOIS UT Martin led from wire-to-wire in its 8151 win over Eastern Illinois on Jan. 29. It marked the first 30-plus point conference victory for UT Martin since a 92-62 win against Southeast Missouri on Feb. 20, 1997. The Skyhawks shot a season-high 60.9 percent (28-for-46) against Eastern Illinois, who was the OVC’s top team in fewest points allowed and defensive field goal percentage. SKYHAWKS’ MAGIC NUMBER: 70 UT Martin is a perfect 11-0 this season when scoring at least 70 points. In his eight years as a head coach, Heath Schroyer is 7622 when scoring 70 or more points. UTM IMPROVEMENT RECOGNIZED BY NCAA On Jan. 19, Mike Lopresti of NCAA.com recognized UT Martin as one of 10 midseason candidates for the All-Improved list. The Skyhawks were referenced along the likes of Notre Dame, Maryland, TCU, DePaul, UC Davis, Hofstra, Cornell, Lamar and Temple. SKYHAWKS LEANING ON VETERANS In conference play, UT Martin has four of the top five players who average the most minutes played per game. Marshun Newell (38.1, second), Alex Anderson (36.3, third), Deville Smith (36.1, fourth), and Twymond Howard (35.9, fifth) all see the bulk of the playing time for the Skyhawks. Overall, Smith leads the league in minutes played (35.4), followed by Howard (34.5, third), Newell (34.3, fourth) and Anderson (32.7, seventh). SKYHAWKS CRASHING THE BOARDS UT Martin has won the battle on the glass in 14 of its 20 games. As a direct result, the Skyhawks lead the OVC in defensive rebounding (29.8 per game) and defensive rebounding percentage (.751). AVOIDING LETDOWN AGAINST JSU UT Martin led by 21 points with 15:35 to go against Jacksonville State but later went scoreless for a span of 8:26 to find themselves tied at 52-all until a Deville Smith jumper with 53 seconds remaining provided the Skyhawks with the go-ahead basket. ENDING LOSING STREAK AGAINST OVC RIVALS The Skyhawks’ 63-60 win at Tennessee Tech marked the first victory over the Golden Eagles since March 3, 2009 – snapping an eight-game losing skid to Tennessee Tech. UT Martin’s 75-72 overtime victory over Morehead State marked the first win over the Eagles since Feb. 28, 2009 – snapping a nine-game losing streak to Morehead State. UTM PASSES LAST YEAR’S WIN TOTAL With a 75-72 overtime win over Morehead State on Jan. 10, the Skyhawks eclipsed their win total from last season (eight). The win over Crowley’s Ridge on Jan. 1 was the first time since 1987-88 that UT Martin has registered eight nonconference wins heading into conference play. OFFENSE STRUGGLES AT BUTLER The Skyhawks had season-lows in points (37), field goal percentage (.333), threepoint field goals made (two), three-point field goal percentage (.154) and free throws made (three) at Butler on Dec. 22. It was the first time that UT Martin had scored fewer than 40 points since it scored 35 points at Illinois on Nov. 23, 1998. SKYHAWKS EARN VOTES IN POLL UT Martin received one vote in the College Insider Mid-Major Poll released on Dec. 18. That marked the first time that the Skyhawks had tallied votes in that poll since 2008-09, the season of UT Martin’s lone Ohio Valley Conference championship. BEST OVERALL START IN 13 YEARS The Skyhawks’ 7-3 start was the best 10game beginning to a season since the 200102 UT Martin team also went 7-3 to open the season. Heath Schroyer became just the second head coach in UT Martin history to tally seven wins in his first 10 tries, joining Tom Hancock (1982-83). ROAD WARRIORS UT Martin boasts six road victories, which led the nation in that category for a majority of the early season. In contrast, the Skyhawks only had five combined road wins in the past two years. UT Martin began the season with eight of its first nine games on the road, including a six-game road swing that took place in five states over a span of 23 days. SMITH’S HISTORIC EFFORT AT UIC Deville Smith scored a career-high 26 points with seven assists, a career-best six rebounds, career-high five blocks and three steals in UT Martin’s 81-78 overtime victory at Illinois-Chicago on Dec. 15. According to STATS, LLC, Smith’s final stat line marked the first time a player had 25+ points, 5+ assists, 5+ rebounds, 5+ blocks and 3+ steals in a single game featuring two NCAA Division-I teams since Minnesota’s Joel Przybilla accomplished the feat against Iowa on Jan. 12, 2000. ALL FIVE STARTERS SCORING IN DROVES Before starting power forward Myles Taylor went down with an injury, the Skyhawks were one of just five teams nationally to have all five starters averaging in double-figures in the scoring column, joining Incarnate Word, St. Bonaventure, Toledo and UCLA. MYLES TAYLOR OUT INDEFINITELY Four-year starter Myles Taylor is currently sidelined with a pre-existing knee injury. His return date is unknown. Taylor, who was selected to the 10-man Preseason All-OVC team, was averaging 11.1 points on 73.5 percent shooting (25for-34) and a team-best 6.0 rebounds at the time of his injury, which was suffered at the end of the first half at Longwood on Dec. 6. Taylor ranks in the top-10 in seven different UT Martin career categories: free throw attempts (549, first); free throws made (411, second); rebounds (574, fourth); points (1,342, sixth); field goals made (455, seventh); blocks (65, eighth) and field goals attempted (914, ninth). RECORD-SETTING WIN IN HOME OPENER In the 115-29 win over Champion Baptist on Nov. 20, UT Martin set a school record for biggest margin of victory (previously 76 points against St. Louis Christian in 1991) and also lowest points allowed in the Division-I era (1992-present). The Skyhawks used a pair of runs (28-0, 27-0) to break the game open and led by as many as 89 points late in the contest. All 14 Skyhawks who saw playing time scored against Champion Baptist. HUGE COMEBACK AT ARKANSAS STATE The Skyhawks trailed by 16 points at halftime and by 19 points with 18:54 left at Arkansas State on Nov. 17 before staging a remarkable comeback to win, 75-73. Twymond Howard helped the Skyhawks to their first win in Jonesboro since 1968. He piled up 21 points in a span of 11:19 to allow UT Martin to keep chipping away at its deficit. He put the team on his back with 10 points over a stretch of 2:40 at one point during the second half run. SMITH REUNITES WITH SCHROYER The Skyhawk backcourt received a boost on Sept. 27 when the NCAA approved a waiver that allowed Deville Smith to play immediately at UT Martin. Smith spent the 2013-14 season at UNLV alongside current Skyhawk head coach Heath Schroyer, who served as the Runnin’ Rebels associate head coach. Smith played in 32 games (18 starts) last season, averaging 9.7 points, 2.7 assists, 1.7 rebounds and 1.0 steals per game. Smith played his freshman season (201112) at Mississippi State before transferring to Southwest Mississippi Community College for his sophomore campaign in 2012-13. FRESHMAN WITH MLB CONNECTIONS Freshman guard CJ Davis grew up with baseball bloodlines, as his father Mark Davis played for six Major League Baseball teams and making two All-Star teams over a successful 15-year career. Mark’s best season came in 1989 when he notched a league-high 44 saves for the San Diego Padres en route to winning the National League Cy Young Award. CJ’s brother Logan is currently playing in the farm system for the Kansas City Royals, the 2014 American League champions. NEWELL’S UTM FAMILY BACKGROUND Redshirt senior guard Marshun Newell is the cousin of former Skyhawk All-American and NBA player Lester Hudson, who earned a pair of OVC Male Athlete of the Year awards from 2007-09. In fact, Newell and Hudson grew up in the same house in Memphis and attended the same community college (Southwest Tennessee) before attending UT Martin. TOWERING OVER THE COMPETITION Although he will likely redshirt, freshman Nick Detlev (7-2) is officially the tallest player in UT Martin history. He passed 7-footer Ned Rolsma, who played for the Skyhawks from 2000-02 before embarking on a successful acting career. Rolsma is most famously known for his role as Marcus Eriksen on the television sitcom “How I Met Your Mother.” GAME 21: MURRAY STATE • JAN. 31 • CFSB CENTER 13-7 OVERALL • 5-2 OVC HEAD COACH HEATH SCHROYER First Season at UTM • Eighth Season Overall Walkersville, Md. • Armstrong Atlantic State, 1995 THE SCHROYER FILE HOMETOWN Walkersville, Md.

The Runnin’ Rebels sported three 20-plus win seasons, a 71-32 overall record (29-19 against Mountain West Conference opposition) and appearances in the 2012 and 2013 NCAA Tournaments in Schroyer’s tenure. He was named a top-15 assistant coach in the nation by Bleacher Report in 2012-13 and followed that with a top-20 assistant coach in the nation honor by College Sports Madness for the 2013-14 campaign. Schroyer coordinated UNLV’s recruiting efforts since he joined the staff in 2011. The Runnin’ Rebels’ 2012 recruiting class was ranked No. 7 in the nation by ESPN and one year later, UNLV produced Anthony Bennett - the No. 1 overall selection by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2013 NBA Draft. Bennett joined Larry Johnson (Charlotte Hornets, 1991) as the only players in UNLV’s prestigious history be selected first in the NBA Draft. UNLV knocked off seven nationally ranked teams in Schroyer’s first two seasons, including a win over No. 1 North Carolina in 2011. That marked UNLV’s first win over the nation’s top team in 22 years and the first time a MWC team had defeated the No. 1 ranked team. The Runnin’ Rebels spent 25 combined weeks in the national top-25 polls during Schroyer’s first two seasons, topping out at No. 11 during the 201112 campaign. The Runnin’ Rebels boasted a pair of Associated Press All-Americans (Mike Moser in 2012, Bennett in 2013), 10 All-MWC selections, the two-time MWC Defensive Player of the Year (Khem Birch in 2013 and 2014) and 2012 MWC Newcomer of the Year (Moser) in Schroyer’s time at UNLV. Schroyer began his collegiate head coaching career at Portland State, where he took over the reins in 2002 as the nation’s second youngest Division-I head coach at age 30. Schroyer propelled the Portland State program to new heights from 2002-05. His teams improved in the win column each season (jumping up 14 wins from his first to last year), culminating with a Big Sky Conference regularseason title in 2004-05, which was the school’s first-ever Division-I championship in any sport. That season, the Vikings went 19-9 overall with an 11-3 conference slate. The 19 victories were the most for the program since the 1958-59 campaign and occurred a year after he guided Portland State to a top-three turnaround in the nation during his second year. At Portland State, Schroyer presided over six All-BSC honorees, including 2004-05 BSC Player of the Year Seamus Boxley. He concluded his career as the program’s fourth all-time leading scorer (1,498 points) and was also named BSC Defensive Player of the Year in back-to-back seasons (2003-04, 2004-05). Schroyer then joined Fresno State University as an associate head coach under Steve Cleveland for two seasons, serving as the Bulldogs’ recruiting coordinator and overseeing the team’s academic turnaround. Overall, he coached four All-Western Athletic Conference performers, including NBA Draft pick Dominic McGuire. In Schroyer’s last season on the bench at Fresno State (2006-07), the Bulldogs went 22-10 with a 10-6 WAC record, earning a trip to the National Invitation Tournament. That marked GAME 21: MURRAY STATE • JAN. 31 • CFSB CENTER the most wins for the program since the legendary Jerry Tarkanian guided the Bulldogs to 22 wins in 1995-96. Schroyer parlayed that success into a head coaching gig at the University of Wyoming from 2007-11. During his four-year head coaching stint at Wyoming, Schroyer coached seven All-MWC players, including Brandon Ewing (second all-time leading scorer in Cowboy history with 2,168 points) and Afam Moujeke (200809 MWC Freshman of the Year after becoming the league’s alltime leading freshman scorer). Schroyer’s best season at Wyoming was in 2008-09, when he led the Cowboys to 19 victories and an appearance in the College Basketball Invitational postseason tournament. He also helped the program make huge strides academically, as he inherited the worst Academic Progress Rate (APR) of any sport in the entire MWC. Schroyer constructed a comprehensive plan that improved the Cowboys’ men’s basketball APR by 164 points to a program-high 935, which was the third-best turnaround in the nation. He was also a member of Wyoming’s Academic Integrity Subcommittee in 2010-11. Before his head coaching appointment at Portland State, Schroyer had previously been an assistant coach at Wyoming under head coach Steve McClain for the 2001-02 season, when the Cowboys went 22-9 (11-3 MWC) and upset No. 6 Gonzaga in the first round of the NCAA Tournament before falling to Arizona. Schroyer was in charge of a ferocious defense that led the MWC in field goal percentage defense, defensive rebounding and rebounding margin. Schroyer’s first Division-I assistant coaching job came at Brigham Young University, who was a member of the Western Athletic Conference before joining the MWC for Schroyer’s last two seasons there. Joining a Cougar program that had went 1-25 the season before, Schroyer and Cleveland - the BYU head coach who 13-7 OVERALL • 5-2 OVC Schroyer would also work with at Fresno State almost a decade later - engineered a dramatic turnaround that led to a 46-20 record and pair of postseason berths in the final two years. The Cougars went 24-9 overall (10-4 MWC) and made an NCAA Tournament appearance in 2000-01. The MWC championship in 2000-01 was BYU’s first conference tournament title since 1992, its first regularseason championship since 1993 and first NCAA Tournament appearance since 1995. The year before that, the Cougars went 2211 and advanced to the NIT quarterfinals. Schroyer presided over six all-conference honorees at BYU, including 2001 MWC Player of the Year and Associated Press AllAmerican Mekeli Wesley. In a coaching career that began as an assistant coach under Cleveland at Fresno City College in 1996, Schroyer has recruited or coached over 60 players who have gone on to play professionally. He has also shared his extensive basketball knowledge as a television analyst during the 2011 NCAA Tournament coverage on The Mtn Channel and during the 2011 CBI on HDNet. He also served as a television analyst for the Utah Jazz during the 2001 NBA playoffs. Schroyer started his collegiate playing career at Kings River Community College in Reedley, Calif., where he earned allconference accolades and led the team to the California Junior College Final Four in 1992. He concluded his playing career at Armstrong Atlantic State in Savannah, Ga., where he led the team to the NCAA Division II Sweet 16 as a senior. Schroyer prepped at the prestigious DeMatha High School program in Hyattsville, Md., where he played for the legendary coach Morgan Wootten, whose 1,274 wins as a head coach are the second-most in the history of basketball at any level. Earning his bachelor’s degree in liberal studies from Armstrong Atlantic State in 1995, Schroyer earned his Master’s degree in institutional leadership from National University in Fresno, Calif. in 1996. Schroyer married the former Kim Ortega of Logandale, Nev. in May 2014. He has one daughter, Sierra (17) and a son, Hayden (12) from a previous marriage.

Down by 19 points early in the second half, the University of Tennessee at Martin men’s basketball team staged a comeback for the ages at Arkansas State, downing the Red Wolves by a 75-73 victory to give firstyear head coach Heath Schroyer his first win as a Skyhawk. A pair of school records were broken as the University of Tennessee at Martin men’s basketball team soared to a 115-29 victory over Champion Baptist in the Kathleen and Tom Elam Center. A trio of newcomers led the Skyhawks in scoring in head coach Heath Schroyer’s UT Martin debut, led by Deville Smith’s 12 points. Twymond Howard and Alex Anderson each added 11 points for UT Martin while Marshun Newell provided nine points, five rebounds and a team-high three assists. Myles Taylor snared a game-high 11 rebounds in only 15 minutes of play before fouling out, helping the Skyhawks outrebound their Big East Conference opponent by a 34-25 margin. Marquette was led by Jajuan Johnson, who scored a game-high 20 points. Juan Anderson (16 points, seven rebounds), Matt Carlino (11 points, seven assists) and Deonte Burton (10 points) also cracked double-figures in the scoring column for the Golden Eagles. Down by 43-24 with 18:54 left, Howard and Newell put the Skyhawks on their back to post UT Martin’s first victory in Jonesboro since 1968. The duo combined to score 33 of UT Martin’s 52 points in the final 20 minutes to snap a seven-game skid against the perennial Sun Belt Conference power. Howard poured in 21 of his team-best 23 points in the second half, shooting 9-for15 from the floor to go along with five rebounds, three assists and a steal in 37 minutes. Newell tallied 12 of his 15 points in the final half, connecting on a careerhigh four 3-pointers (in five attempts). Myles Taylor narrowly missed a doubledouble with 11 points and nine rebounds while the backcourt of Deville Smith (11 points, five assists, five steals and three rebounds) and Alex Anderson (nine points, three steals) helped UT Martin shoot 56.7 percent (17-for-30) in the second half. Arkansas State was led by Anthony Livingston’s 26 points and nine rebounds. Cameron Golden (17) and Sean Gardner (15) also reached double-figures in the scoring column for the Red Wolves. UT Martin set a school record for biggest margin of victory (previously 76 points against St. Louis Christian on Jan. 5, 1991) and also lowest points allowed in the Division-I era (1992-present). All 14 Skyhawks who saw playing time scored, as no UT Martin player logged more than 18 minutes of time on the court. Myles Taylor scored a game-high 18 points with three blocks for the Skyhawks while Alex Anderson and Richard Lee (5-for-5 shooting, 3-for-3 from three-point range in collegiate debut) added 13 points apiece. Twymond Howard scored 12 points with a career-best nine rebounds while Marshun Newell tallied 10 points for the Skyhawks. Deville Smith handed out a career-high nine assists (against zero turnovers) and Khristian Taylor set a new career-high with nine rebounds. As a team, UT Martin shot 60.6 percent (43-for-71), including 14 three-pointers in 29 attempts, falling one trifecta short of the school record. Champion Baptist, a member of the Association of Christian College Athletics located in Hot Springs, Ark., was led by 13 points and five rebounds out of Stephen Hurst. The Tigers shot 23.1 percent (12-for52) from the floor for the contest.
