Tigers wrap up non-league play with lopsided win over FAMU

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Jeremiah Martin matched his season-high with 22 points and Tyler Harris added 16 to lead the University of Memphis to its third-straight win and fifth in six games in a 96-65 decision Saturday over Florida A&M at FedExForum.

Martin, a senior guard and preseason American Athletic Conference first-team pick, also contributed eight assists and six steals -- both team highs -- in the UofM's final non-league game.

The Tigers (8-5) open conference play Thursday by playing host to Wichita State.

In the lopsided win over the Rattlers (3-12), the Tigers also continued a recent torrid shooting streak.
