GAME RECAP: Pitt wins opening night 80-58 over UT-Martin

The Pittsburgh Panthers Men’s basketball opened their 2022-2023 campaign tonight against the UT-Martin Skyhawks of the Ohio Valley Conference and came away with an 80-58 win.

In a tilt that featured multiple technicals, and an ejection of UT-Martin star and former Panther Parker Stewart, the Panthers turned a shaky start into a dominant performance.

It only took one game for Blake Hinson to establish that he is the focal point of this team, and his 27-point, 13-rebound performance should only inspire confidence for what is to come.

First Half:

Pitt’s basketball season got off to a cold start, as the Panthers were 3 for their first 12 FGA to begin the game.
