Anchor Drop, November 9, 2023: UT-Martin tonight

Good morning.

Optional Musical Accompaniment

Well, at least one of our basketball teams is 1-0. Women’s basketball looks to make it two in a row with their first road game of the season at UT-Martin tonight. The Skyhawks are 0-1 after opening the season with an 84-51 loss at Marquette. Tip-off is at 5:30 PM CT and will be streamed on ESPN+.

The women’s team also announced the signing of 6’3” forward Trinity Wilson yesterday, the first day of the national signing period. The volleyball team announced six signings in its inaugural signing class; men’s golf signed Bowen Ballis (oh look, a Vanderbilt golf name) and Ryan Downes, both among the top 20 golfers in the 2024 class.
