CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. -- Terrius Callahan ran for the only touchdown and Austin Peay forced three turnovers to hold off UT Martin 7-0 on Saturday night.

Kordell Jackson and Keawvis Cummings both intercepted Troy Cook passes in the first half. Callahan scored on a 22-yard run early in the second quarter.

Jeremiah Mitchell forced a Cook fumble and Theron Hodges recovered ball early in the fourth quarter to kill another Skyhawks' drive. UT Martin had two more possessions but couldn't cross into Austin Peay territory.
Ahmaad Tanner ran for 90 yards on 13 carries to lead the Governors. Cook finished 10 of 31 for 126 yards passing.
