The Bulldogs took the lead for good less than four minutes into the game and gained control by outscoring UT Martin 17-8 during the final eight minutes of the first half.

Matthews’ layup started the second-half scoring and Dashawn Davis and Fort and each made a 3-pointer to extended MSU’s lead to 49-31.

Curry made two free throws, but the lead grew to 21 points on another 3-pointer by Davis.

The Skyhawks scored the first four points of the game before Fort made two 3-pointers for MSU’s first points, tying the score.
