CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. - UT Martin Juniors Trey Karlen and Cody Terry didn't waste any time saying hello to Austin Peay starter Ricky Marshall. The one and two hitters for the Skyhawks hit first pitch fastballs. While Karlen's amounted to nothing but a long fly ball, Terry blasted the second pitch of the game over the left field fence to give the Skyhawks a 1-0 lead.
