2002-03 Review
Martin played an instrumental role in 2002-03, competing in six tournaments as a redshirt freshman. Her average of 187.031 ranked fourth on the team, while she competed in 32 games. Martin’s average (seventh), total pinfall (eighth) and games played (eight) all cracked the school’s top-10 list for freshmen. She struggled in the first half of the year, averaging a 179 in her first three events, but closed with a flourish, increasing her average by 15 pins (194.15) over her final three tournaments. She posted averages of 190 or better in her final two events, and turned in her best career finish at the ACU-I Regional, placing sixth with a pinfall of 1,779 to clinch an appearance at nationals for the Huskers.
