Martinez Named ASC WT Player of the Week

Schreiner sophomore Michelle Martinez was named American Southwest Conference West Division Player of the Week for action that took place in the week of April 8-14.  Martinez, from Harlingen, TX (Harlingen HS) had both singles and doubles wins against both Texas Lutheran and McMurry.  Her only loss during the week came against nationally-ranked Hardin-Simmons.

In the match vs. TLU, Martinez teamed with sophomore Andrea Da Silva to win convincingly 8-3 at #1 doubles.  She then had little trouble dispatching TLU's Blair O'Brien, 6-2, 6-1 at #1 singles as SU went on to post its first ASC win, 7-2 at the George and Frances Cree Tennis Complex on the Schreiner campus.

In the McMurry match, again playing #1 singles, she defeated Kristin Bray, 6-2, 6-4. Martinez then teams with her normal doubles partner, senior Stephanie Reed, at #1 doubles and defeated Bray and Shelby Carpenter, 8-4.  The Mountaineers came up just short in their match though, falling 4-5.

Martinez is the first SU women's player this year to earn ASC POW honors.  Earlier this season, SU sophomore men's tennis player Danny Okland earned the same honor.
