UT Martin uses 3 interceptions to beat winless North Alabama 43-28

UT Martin (1-2) has won 23 of its last 25 games at home since 2019 – including a 15-1 record over the past three seasons. The Skyhawks played at home for the first time this season, following a double-overtime loss against Big South-OVC Football Association rival Southeast Missouri last Saturday.

North Alabama scored the opening 18 points and led 25-20 at halftime after UT Martin's Jaren Van Winkle made a 46-yard field goal as time expired.

Tevin Shipp highlighted the second half by making the UT Martin's third interception and returning it for a 34-yard touchdown for a two-possession lead and to cap the scoring with 5:38 left in the fourth.

Chris Hunter Jr. and JaMichael McGoy Jr. also had a pick for the UT Martin defense.

DC Tabscott was 6 of 13 for 149 yards passing with two touchdowns and two interceptions for North Alabama (0-4), a United Athletic Conference foe.

In a series which dates to 1949, UT Martin and North Alabama met in back-to-back seasons for the first time since both programs were in the Division II ranks.
