Cornell University Athletics

Martinez, a three-time second-team Mideast Region All-American, became the first Big Red player to become a four-time All-Ivy selection. She was a first-team pick in each of her final two seasons after capturing second team honors in her first two. Martinez was named to the 2008 NFHCA Division I Senior All-Star team, one of just two Ivy League players to make the squad. A two-time team captain, Martinez was the heart of the Cornell defensive unit that allowed less than 10 shots and just 5.4 penalty corners per game as a senior, the best school average since the stat began to be recorded in 1998. She ranked seventh in career goals (17), ninth in career points (45) and ninth in career assists (12) in school history despite playing a majority of the time in the defensive back. A two-time defensive MVP for the Big Red, she started every game during her Cornell career while helping the team to a 38 -28 overall record (19-9 Ivy), including three consecutive conference runner-up finishes.
