NORMAL, Ill. – A furious late run for the Illinois State Redbirds came up just short, as ISU could not overcome a cold shooting night from the field in a 67-65 season-opening loss to the UT Martin Skyhawks on Monday evening.

Freshman Jack Daugherty, in his Redbird debut, scored a team-high 15 points, making five of his 12 shots from long range.
