I wouldn't doubt that one bit. UTM has been perennial doormats for years.If you didn't know the history of the "Pacers" then you don't know much about the history of UTM...

 

Stay on that UTM bandwagon of 2006!

Ya'll are riding high now!

That is correct. They beat SEMO that year. But get this that win in 1996 was the only OVC win for the Skyhawks till the 2003 season. 7 years between conference wins!!! That is insane. I just hope the students and the town of Martin get behind this team, they sure deserve it.
