Goldsmith scores two TDs, Tech falls at UT Martin

MARTIN, Tenn. – The Tennessee Tech football team knew that whichever team came out the fastest on Saturday was going to have the upper hand. Unfortunately, it was UT Martin that did just that, and while the Golden Eagles rallied in the second quarter, the Skyhawks were able to hold on to a 38-13 victory at Hardy M. Graham Stadium. For the Golden Eagles, though, it was Andrew Goldsmith’s day. The junior from Jackson got another appearance in front of his hometown crowd and made plenty of noise, rushing for two touchdowns and 60 yards on 16 carries, while also catching three passes for 14 yards.

MARTIN, Tenn. – The Tennessee Tech football team knew that whichever team came out the fastest on Saturday was going to have the upper hand. Unfortunately, it was UT Martin that did just that, and while the Golden Eagles rallied in the second quarter, the Skyhawks were able to hold on to a 38-13 victory at Hardy M. Graham Stadium. For the Golden Eagles, though, it was Andrew Goldsmith’s day. The junior from Jackson got another appearance in front of his hometown crowd and made plenty of noise, rushing for two touchdowns and 60 yards on 16 carries, while also catching three passes for 14 yards.

Positives abound in Tech football's first scrimmage

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – As the Tennessee Tech football team finished the first full week of fall camp, the Golden Eagles closed out Saturday with their first scrimmage. It was nowhere near perfect – not that was expected this early into camp – but it did give the Golden Eagles an idea where to go next as they continue their preparations for the 2018 campaign. “We’re making a lot of progress,” said Tech head coach Dewayne Alexander. “We did a lot of good things, but we still have a lot to do. We threw a lot of situations at them over the last few practices – certain areas of the field, two-minute drills, backed up, red zone, 3rd and long, 3rd and short. There’s a lot of stuff we’re still installing, and the nature of it – you’re throwing a lot of stuff in, after day two or three it starts running together.
